Who is Zach and what is his background?
Conan O'Brien needs a fan. Want to talk to Conan? Visit teamcoco.com slash call Conan. Okay, let's get started.
Hello. Hi, Zach. Welcome to Conan O'Brien needs a fan. Hey, Matt. How you doing? I'm good.
How are you? How you doing there, Zach? Zach Tarantelli is your name. I'm not asking. I'm telling. You're an animator from Ohio. Is that correct, sir? That's 100% correct. And I can tell from looking at you that you are a ginger. Welcome to the club. Just in the beard, though.
The hair is like blonde, like dirty blonde.
Okay, that's very strange. That's probably a sign of insanity. But I think we just have to accept it for now. I know that my beard comes in redder than my hair. Oh, wow. Yeah, it's more aggressively like copper. No idea what that is. Yet below the waist, blonde. Nobody asked.
It's like fiber optic. It's just like see-through. You know what I mean? Yeah. No, you know like a fish that's so deep down that you can kind of- And you know what?
It changes colors like the sphere. A lot of rock bands want to perform down there. Anyway, let's move on. Zach, it says here, and I have notes on you. Oh, I've got an old dossier on you, Zach, that you are the head of animation for Zach D Films. Is that right?
That's right, different Zach, but yes.
Okay, that's all right, doesn't matter.
Two Zachs conquering the world together.
What unique proposal did Zach plan under a cosmic event?
And you guys are very successful. It says you have 27 million followers and you're an animator of over 70 shorts. Is that correct?
I personally animated 70 shorts for the channel before I moved into my current position, yeah.
That's so cool. I mean, first of all, I'm a long fan of animation, raised on the very best of the Warner Brothers cartoons, the classics, worked on The Simpsons. So I've always loved animation and admire what you people do. I really do. What do you love about it? Well, I love that it sort of brings the... First of all, you can do anything. Anything can happen. And so whether it's Ren and Stimpy or a classic Roadrunner Bugs Bunny and so many of the great animated shows today, anything can happen that's in your imagination. And it can really get perverse, which is my true joy.
Mm-hmm.
A hundred percent. And I know that you would love that because you're basically a cartoon yourself.
You know what? Thank you for saying that because I do, I've often thought I'm a cartoon character. My motions are exaggerated. My hair is a ridiculous cupcake. I act like Woody Woodpecker. Yeah. And yeah. You look like olive oil. Pardon me?
Nothing. What was that?
Nothing. Okay. Listen, I heard what you said and I don't disagree.
Popeye before the spinach.
No, no, no. Even better. Yeah, yeah. A blend of Popeye before the spinach, yeah, and olive oil. Okay, so that's all to be admired, Zach, that you have these amazing skills. And I'm glad you think of me as a cartoon character. Please turn me into one because there has yet to be a successful Conan animated short. And I think that's your territory, Zach. You could do it.
Well, it's so funny you bring this up, and I feel like the producers are going to hate me because we just talked about this, but I did do a little animation for you, and I was going to email it to somebody, but I got to tell you, here's the thing. I can send it to you.
What's the matter?
The problem is... Nothing's the matter.
This is great.
How does Zach incorporate his spirituality into his life?
He's a great animator, and yeah, he made a little short.
What's the problem? The problem is that great animation takes time, and I only had like two days to put it together. I don't know if I want the world... I did it for Conan. Yeah, for Conan. Well, why can't we look at it? Well, I want to send it to you, but I don't know if I want the world to see it. You know what I mean? It's got my name on it.
Is it intimate?
Is it of a sexual nature? I mean, some could interpret it as such. Okay. No, it's fun. It's just awesome.
We will not share it. We won't share it with the world. If you send it to me and then it accidentally gets online and it's attached. as Zach D. Films and people rate your work based on that. That's just, who can help that? That's something that we can help.
