On this episode of Staying Alive, hosts Jon Gabrus and Adam Pally sit down with their friend and collaborator Anthony Atamanuik (What We Do In The Shadows, The President Show) to talk about gambling influencers, health scares, turning 50, the importance of community, talking to the dead, collapsed quantum fields, mastering home cooking, shoring up the temple, and how the math is forever. Plus, Anthony shares his strategy for winning at roulette (heads up: it’s just magic), and also teaches us the word “microtubules.”
