On this episode of Staying Alive, hosts Jon Gabrus and Adam Pally sit down with their good friend and former improv teacher Jason Mantzoukas (How Did This Get Made?, Big Mouth, The Good Place) to discuss Jason’s recent back surgery, the dangers of nostalgia, sleep hygiene, how old they feel, and how you can still be addicted to your phone even without social media. Plus, Gabrus is going on a football weekend with some buddies from grade school!
