Happy July! 🍦🌞🍧

DZW has been busy behind the scenes doing some quiet archival work. If you visit the site from a desktop, you'll find some new resources about Zach:

Instagram archive. Fully linked list of Instagram posts to date on Zach's account, including caption/alt text, post type, and date.

Quote archives, separated by both topic and source, the majority of which are podcasts. Would love to start a character quote archive; feel free to submit suggestions! Shows to consider: The Office, Silicon Valley, Avenue 5, In the Know, The League, The Kroll Show, Mating Season.

Video index (corrected). For whatever reason, the video index page got borked. It's back now!

Homepage highlights. We're going to shift away from weekly themed posts due to bandwidth. (Don't worry; those themed collections of posts are saved on our Browse page.) Instead of highlighted weeks, the homepage sidebar will include popular, timely, and noteworthy posts and pages, such as …

The Reading Catalog. References to literature Zach has mentioned in interviews are listed, alongside dated sources for those references. If we're missing a title, send it our way at [email protected]!

Updated guidelines: How We Source and our general policy. We take covering Zach and his projects/updates very seriously. These pages outline what we will and will not publish, in addition to suggestions for submitting content to DZW.

The UCB "Killgore: Resurrection" Show, in five parts. DZW has recovered the 2009 performance of Killgore: Resurrection, a special and grisly UCB show featuring Zach Woods, Chris Gethard, Ben Schwartz, and other familiar comedy faces. You can watch two promo videos and all five parts on our Vimeo. PLEASE NOTE: these videos contain offensive language, nudity (prosthetics), violence and absurd amounts of gore/blood, jokes about SA, use of the R-word, and more. This is a video of its time, so please keep that in mind when you watch this footage.

Summer Treats

Sharing the following downloadable goodies for you!

July calendar:

To my knowledge, Zach appears in a bathing suit twice: in The Afterparty (S02E08: Feng) and in the Awkward Boy series, and he's not smiling in either! I had fun with this photo of Zach from Jimmy Kimmel; the notion of him walking on sand in a full suit is too amusing to me.

And! As we announced on Instagram, we now have our first round of stickers for Apple Messages! These are based on quotes from various interviews and appearances, shortened for adorableness.

These won't be put in the App Store because 💸💸💸; simply download the images for use on your device. Grab your stickers today!

Last, some minor calls to action:

Follow us on Instagram! This is the platform where Zach is most active, so we'd like to build our community there as well as our flagship site. There WERE Zach fan pages way back when—let's bring back Zach's community! Our handle is @/dzwarchive.

Donate to help Sunny! As far as we know, Sunny has not yet been adopted from Much Love Animal Rescue and Jake Paul will be getting $1,000. I am personally matching $5 donations up to $100; just send a DM or email with proof of your donation. We have $85 left to match. If you can spare the five bucks, great! If you can't, please share our stories on IG and point folks to our donation link, which is in our bio.

Hope folks are having a wonderful summer so far in the U.S.; for those of you in another hemisphere, keep your body temperature just right and get some R&R!
