On this episode of Staying Alive, hosts Jon Gabrus and Adam Pally spend some time with their old pal, the hilarious Griffin Newman (Blank Check, The Tick, The George Lucas Talk Show), to talk about Watto’s feet, IBS, having two therapists, the Supergirl KFC menu, looking good while nearly dying, and Griffin’s mindset while shooting The Tick. Plus: getting to 60/40 by trying for 80/20, and we meet both The Walk-On Kid and Sony, The Walk Man.
