On this episode of Staying Alive, hosts Jon Gabrus and Adam Pally sit down with their good friend, SNL superstar Ego Nwodim, to talk primarily about menus, but also being literally thirsty versus slang thirsty, pitching sketches with a dislocated shoulder, discovering that American cheese isn’t real, and how she changed her whole relationship to fitness with grace and compassion. We’ll also learn about Pally’s $50 box of cereal and the results of Gabrus’ 23 & Me.
