Key Discussion Points & Insights
Hungover Vibes & LA Nightlife (01:00–07:00)
- The episode opens with Zane, Heath, and Zach joking about hangovers—Zane on nonalcoholic beer, Zach never drinking, and a playful roast about their respective tolerance levels.
- They riff on exclusivity in LA’s club and member scene, with “Living Room” and SoHo discussed, poking fun at how the price of admission often skyrockets with status and darkness (“The more expensive it is, the darker we're gonna make it” – Heath, 06:54).
- Zach humorously downplays his own Hollywood image, sharing, “I got in for free. You guys are talking about $70k a year, I just walked in” (06:17), leading to more banter about influencer privilege.
On Fame, Ego, and Social Media Success (15:00–41:30)
- Zach traces his journey: starting TikTok in high school, grinding through slow growth, the “rating celebrities I’ve met” bit that blew up, and the internal pressure for viral success.
- The group shares the ego rollercoaster of internet fame—Zach admitting to early delusion/manifestation but later becoming more grateful and grounded:
“I just need to be grateful for it all… every single view. And once you get to that mindset, that’s when things started to take off.”
(Zach, 36:54) - Zach’s biggest win: the ability to pull off creative branded content that genuinely performs—a “blessing” of his career.
Family, Upbringing, and Staying Grounded (27:00–33:00)
- Zach opens up about his family in St. Louis, his “middle class, blessed” background, and how his dad’s humor shaped him:
“My dad is the reason I’m as funny as I am...he’s like my best friend.” (27:29)
- He describes feeling isolated while friends were in college, driving him closer to his family and more focused on content.
- Details his decision to avoid moving straight to LA, instead making long visits, and credits friendships built through internet culture.
LA Connections: Parties, Celebrity Moments & Surrealism (38:00–54:00)
- Zach recalls his rapid ascent into LA’s social circles, from being barely recognized at house parties to meeting major celebs.
- Shares the oddity of party scenes, comparing the darker, sometimes “wholesome” events (like David’s Halloween Party) to the sketchier LA after-hours scene.
- One memorable highlight: a surreal night in Malibu that turns into a spontaneous dinner with total strangers, blending fame with genuine human connection.
Zach’s Viral “Love Life” Story: Heartbreak, Angel Numbers, and LA Weirdness
Sparks Fly (54:30–1:01:00)
- Zach slides into a model’s DMs (“Have you ever thought about going into modeling or something?” – 55:37) and soon they’re voice-noting, then spending hours daily on the phone.
- She’s living in Hawaii, tells him she’s moving through tough times with LA, and they bond deeply despite only knowing each other through calls.
- “It’s cool being totally real… being able to be vulnerable with someone right away.” (Zach, 56:55)
- Plans are made for a magical first in-person meetup in LA, with shared enthusiasm, references to inside jokes, and even Angel Numbers (repeating digits as “signs”) fueling anticipation.
Signs, Synchronicity, and High Hopes (1:01:00–1:13:00)
- Zach’s story becomes a wild tapestry of “manifestation” and synchronicity: angel numbers (111, 222, 333, 444) appear constantly as he travels, meets artists (like Teddy Swims), and gets exciting music news.
- The build-up feels predestined—Zach makes elaborate, caring plans for their first IRL meeting, even tracking down her favorite candle.
“Everything was lining up. I was like, this is exactly where I need to be.”
(Zach, 78:04)
The Ghosting (1:13:00–1:46:00)
- The big night arrives, but Zach never hears from her. He’s left with no explanation after weeks of deep conversations. He describes the sense of loss:
“I was so dependent on her for happiness that I realized I wasn't ready to be in a relationship…I needed to learn how to be alone.”
(Zach, 58:31) - After some time, he discovers—through mutual followers and Instagram sleuthing—that she suddenly connects with a very famous mutual (whose identity remains confidential).
- The podcast crew points out, with both empathy and humor, how Zach is living through scenes straight from his own viral sketches on TikTok about “your girlfriend with her guy best friend” (31:16).
- Zach deals with the hurt, journaling about the experience, and reaches moments of reflection and growth:
“The lowest points turn out to be the biggest blessings. But man, it still sucks.”
(Zach, 80:36)
Celebrity Side-Plots & Surprise Comforts (1:10:00–1:39:00)
- As Zach wallows in heartbreak, he has encounters with actors, musicians, and influencers in rapid succession: running into Jaden Smith, Lana Del Rey (with whom he ends up commiserating about his breakup), Moises Arias, and more.
- An unplanned dinner at Soho and even being comforted by Lana herself become the healing elements he didn’t expect:
“Lana was saying—if my son ever went through that, I’d fight that girl. She’s so damn cool and genuine.”
(Zach, 138:26)
Closure and Lessons (1:46:00–End)
- Two weeks later, the girl reaches out with a thin excuse for her disappearance (broken phone, exhaustion), but the conversation quickly turns defensive, blaming Zach for being “immature” for trying to get closure.
- Zach processes the final exchange, recognizing the relationship was not built on mutual respect and that he dodged a bullet (“I don’t care who she is; she could be Brad Pitt. I can give a s***…she’s not who I thought she was.” – 130:45).
- The segment ends with a cathartic, almost comic final note: Lana Del Rey assuring Zach he’ll be more famous than the rival guy, and the whole cast marveling at the absurdity (and ultimate lessons) of it all.
