Listen "Ep. 95 - Ablation, Books, Blazers, and TV Shows"
Episode Synopsis
Hey friends, it’s Rudy. This week marks one week since my heart ablation, and I’m happy to say I haven’t had an AFib episode since. I talk about what the procedure was like, some hospital stuff, and how it feels to finally give myself permission to slow down without guilt. But what I lack in heart chaos, I make up for in a rather chaotic episode: ablation, books, tv shows, and a Portland Trail Blazer/western conference NBA season preview.I’ve also been deep into some really good books - It’s Not You by Dr. Ramani Durvasula (on recovering from narcissistic abuse), which I finished and talk about some of what I've learned from it. How To Make Your Brain Your Best Friend by Dr. Rachel Barr is next up. Loved what I've read so far. If you haven't checked out either of these doctors' work online, give them a follow on the gram or youtube - they both rock.Then I share a few shows that made my recovery a little easier: TASK (absolutely blew me away), Alien Earth, and Peacemaker. Plus, I get way too into my Blazers predictions for the 2025–26 season — spoiler: 41 wins, play-in berth, and Toumani for All-Defense again.And I close with some exciting news — I’m back on stage! Catch me at:10/24 – Gryff’s Pub (Cancer Benefit “F*** Cancer”)10/25 – Sam Bond’s (Bleepin Funny Halloween Show) 10/31 – Luckey’s (Comedy Cover/Swap Show) 11/1 – Fathom’s (Double Entendre – defending my freestyle crown!)Thanks for sticking with me through a wild year of tumors, heart flutters, and hospital visits. Read a book, rest without guilt, and remember: sometimes doing nothing is the most productive thing you can do.Rudy Jokes and the Gym - 95 weeks, baby!Find me, Rudy Tyburczy, on TikTok @jokesandthegym Youtube @jokesandthegym www.rudytyburczy.com ig @jokesandthegym and @rudytyburczy and @rudyandthecats Facebook, Twitter, they also exist.
