Kids & Wake-Up Calls (w/ Andy Richter)

Staying Alive with Jon Gabrus & Adam Pally

On this episode of Staying Alive, hosts Jon Gabrus and Adam Pally sit down with one of their heroes, actor/comedian/good egg Andy Richter, to talk about managing depression, how New York City can keep you in shape whether you’re trying or not, what the work of being a dad means to them, and Andy gets real about a past health scare. Plus, Pally has a desperate situation in a UCB janitor’s closet, and Gabrus talks about his first-ever TV credit (“Wedgie Bully” on Late Night with Conan O’Brien).
