Jokes and the Gym with Rudy Tyburczy
Jokes and the Gym is where dumbbells meet dumb jokes. Hosted by comedian, certified personal trainer, and brain tumor survivor Rudy Tyburczy, this show dives into the messy overlap of comedy, health, and resilience. Each week, Rudy chats with comedians, creatives, and other people in his life about late nights, weird gigs, fitness fails, and finding balance when life throws curveballs. You’ll also hear solo episodes with updates from his ongoing brain surgery journey, reflections on recovery, and plenty of ridiculous stories along the way. Expect laughs, honesty, and maybe even the push you need to lace up your sneakers. Think stand-up comedy with a side of lunges—your brain, your body, and your funny bone will thank you.

Ep. 20 - Jessica Grant Has Battled Cancer and Hecklers
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, I sit down with the hilarious Jessica Grant, comedian born and raised in Humboldt County. We chat about the lack of joy of hecklers, her entry as a business owner with a green thumb, and how darn challenging the last few years have been - she's been through a lot! (But has maintained better than most would.)
And yet, she has become a homeowner, started a business, and put out her debut comedy album, "Kinda Sexy". Oh yeah, she is a cancer survivor, and we get into some of the effects of her battle (eyebrows, anyone?), which is actually quite impressive. Tune in to find out what she has learned through this intense process!
I have been so impressed with how Jessica has maintained her mental health through the last few years, all while pursuing this crazy thing we call comedy, and living her best dang life!
Check Jessica Grant as a regular at the Savage Henry Comedy Club, or find her album, Kinda Sexy, on Spotify, iTunes, and so on. Thanks for stoppin by!
Oh, and this is 20 episodes - that's pretty cool! Thanks to everyone who has helped or listened or thought. <3
