A Gilly’s Heel (w/ Gil Ozeri)

On this episode of Staying Alive, we’re back in LA for the next few weeks, and hosts Jon Gabrus and Adam Pally get to sit down with one of their oldest friends, chaos agent Gil Ozeri (Big Mouth, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Happy Endings) to discuss how, as far as Gil is concerned, no one has ever said or done a single funny thing unless death was on the table. They’ll also talk about trying (and failing) to eat healthy in a writer’s room, Weight Watchers, candy towers, a road rage incident co-starring Will.I.Am, and we get A Staying Alive exclusive: Gil thinks he might have Horsetooth. Baby. Got. Gout.
