Cards & Climbing (w/ Nelson Dellis)
On this episode of Staying Alive, hosts Jon Gabrus and Adam Pally sit down with six-time USA Memory Champion Nelson Dellis to talk about his Alzheimer’s charity, memorizing cards underwater, getting 50 meters from the summit of Everest, and, perhaps most exciting to the fellas, the science of card counting. Plus Pally can’t remember a single line from a two hour play he starred in, yet Gabrus can still recall the first 30 prepositions in order from seventh grade.
