Zach Woods Feels Like A "Pick Me" | Conan O'Brien Needs A Friend

[@AndorranStairway]

Zach woods is an improv genius that doesn’t get enough recognition. His work on The Office and Silicon Valley is amazing. Really hope we gets more prominent gigs

[@yourmothersfavouriterappers]

Avenue 5 he's amazing

[@benburch]

he was under-utilized on the office and people didnt like the character or really get his humour, but he absolutely made silicon valley great.

[@RodencyRoyalist]

Zach Woods is like Conan's awkward, gangly nephew.

[@brownkemosabe]

impossible! where's the 100% irish ginger hair xD xD

[@melann4522]

could have just said "nephew", rest is implied.

[@RachMonPhoebs]

@@brownkemosabe Are you aware of Dylan McDermott? The Corrs? Pierce Brosnan? All Irish-born folks with dark hair and light eyes.

More of this interview please! Zach Woods is amazing.

[@ViajeroPerpetuo]

Its always nice to see when Matt has perfect timing next to these two improv giants Zach and Conan.

[@cdbsk76]

"What's the opposite of a 'pick me' girl?" cracked me up

[@adamplace1414]

"Can it be both?"

[@AsuncionRJ]

Tbh, I’ve always thought Matt holds his own every time he and Conan riff. I’ve always been very impressed by him. 😂

[@jasonmurdoc9533]

Matt taught improv for a long time I believe

[@chrishsu2728]

⁠@@AsuncionRJ Matt is also wonderful riffing with his friend, Paul Rust of the podcast, “With Ghorley and Rust..” it’s a chill and funny podcast about movies

[@sianspherica]

Zach's portrayal of Jared in Silicon Valley is like a top 15 comedy character in TV ever

[@DeltaEcho303]

This guy f**ks.

[@mateostenberg]

Honestly Gabe from The Office is one of my favorite performances ever. "I'm gonna tell you her last name tomorrow because she's gonna be screaming it tonight!"

[@cleekersneaker]

Read the Silicon Valley pilot. Jared is not even a comedy character. Just a guy with 6 lines of exposition.

[@ctrainbeats]

@@mateostenberg the first time i watched the office (live, week to week) i hated him lol. but upon the MANY re-watches, he is one of the best characters lol... lengthen....elongate.....

And the follow-up by Zach 🚀

[@carrielondon5535]

I've been swooning over Conan for over 20 years 🥰🥰🥰

[@AlexAugustinex]

Lucky bastard

[@greghicks5960]

These Conan podcast videos are the most consistently hilarious clips I've ever watched. Absolutely brilliant comedic minds at work topped off by Sona's great laugh.

[@jeremymcinturff985]

Zach Woods is the best part of The Office after Steve left. "SHUT UP ABOUT THE SUN!"

[@sneddsnedd]

Zach best moment ever on silicon valley was the robot car kidnapping him and taking him to the middle of the ocean lol

[@whyyougottasaythat]

Yes! The funniest scene from that show, I still think about it whenever I see a large freight ship.

[@itsagrayday]

Zach woods should really get more prominent rolls. He is funny quick witted and hilariously akward.

[@thesimulation9651]

I want to see a buddy movie with him and Tim Simons

[@amonrodriguez3518]

@@thesimulation9651he sucks man.

[@WaitingtoHit]

He could get some really prominent rolls if he ate nothing but Moon Pies.

[@amonrodriguez3518]

@@WaitingtoHit ya he’s not that good. More like garbage and would be lucky if a cartoon wants to hire him for a voice roll

[@florete2310]

Also: Probably the loveliest self-professed Frankenstein monster out there these days

[@rezarcher]

Zach Woods is a comedic genius. The next huge comedy movie should have him as a main force. If you're writing a movie; if you just like movies; take this advice and run with it. You're welcome.

[@ambsd8419]

I was going to comment yesterday that Zach Woods would be a great guest and here he is!

[@melann4522]

Ooo..this guy. I LOVE this guy.

[@DeltaEcho303]

Jared 'going HAM' on Richard for picking on Qwart in Silicon Valley is one of the funniest, yet scariest, moments ever. Never upset a man who isn't afraid to catch a case.

[@sapph____]

i was state raised!

[@AV-db5fb]

I'm shocked Sona didn't know what a pick me girl is. And Matt seemed to know

[@Kitty8791]

Now we know who watched more Grey's Anatomy. 😉

[@zeruty]

I don't think Zach Woods quite understands what pick me girl means either. It's specifically to get the approval of men, not just people. Agreeing with a man, instead of steadfastly standing in solidarity with the sisterhood.

[@srichey444]

Zach is such a Cutie. 🥰

[@Altoclefkitty]

The monster is very different in the book, he can speak well and never grunts. Plus the fact Mary Shelly essentially wrote it for a horror story contest between Lord Byron and others.

[@coreybangs]

How about the "Chill Chums" read Frankenstein on pod.

[@bogwitchsophie]

Conan "Daddy Long Legs" O'Brien

[@florete2310]

"There's this little disc of cerebral energy - and then, ... *legs* ... "😂

[@georgejorden6269]

Like Conan - I read the original Frankenstein book by Mary Shelley. Haunting.

[@patrickmanion9646]

So did I! I was waiting for the book discussion. It didn't happen. :(

[@georgejorden6269]

@@patrickmanion9646 There needs to be a good movie adaptation of the book. I know one was sort of done with Robert De Niro. But Frankenstein is a timeless classic. The book was revolutionary at the time because it was a horror / gothic novel written by a woman. Most novels were written by men or were attributed to men.

[@WalkingmanPattaya]

Fun funny stuff...Thanks Conan and Zach ...

[@AzirAghyur]

Very funny man Zach Woods is

[@hellomarjory]

finally!! my dream guest!!

Zach Woods is underrated

i'm gonna try conan's 'you win sigh' when i propose i think its a great idea lol

He was my favorite on the office

[@ZACMAKLEA]

Great content Conan! Good Bless!

[@florete2310]

I like, that he tried to remind people to read books. It opens you up to so much more than just watching a movie

[@TheFray331]

Zach is the best

[@ROBMEISTERN]

Zach is such a intellectual

[@eun-solkim7080]

Currently reading Shelley's Frankenstein (1818), so this was cool.

[@dmohninger]

Zach Woods' finding-his-birth-parents story arc in Silicone Valley is probably one of my most favorite hilarious and tragic stories in any TV show.

[@jeremyphillips3087]

Whats another of your favorite hilarious and tragic arcs?

[@SynthiaVan]

Yeah my wife proposed to me by baking our dog into a souffle, very original.

"I," "me," and "my' are used at record frequency.

[@olddoctorspaceman]

Ugh that ad in the middle of the video is really off-putting.

[@SteveSmartPoetryandMusic]

Can we have an episode of 'Conan Needs A Friend' and bring Zach back to read Mary Shelley's 'Frankenstein', with everyone in the podcast studio doing the voices?

[@grimetone]

Please get Nile Rodgers on the pod.

[@BadassRaiden]

There needs to be further extrapolation on the "pick me" girl term. It typically has to do with internalized misogyny, not simply self-conscuously quirky as a means to differentiate themselves from other women. The "I'm not like other girls" is a phrase often associated with "pick me" types, and it has to do with degrading other women. It's suggesting that because "im not like other girls" you should pick me, and typically it's meant as a generalized degradation of the female sex. "I'm not like other girls" is code for "I'm like one of the guys," and being like one of the guys is what makes them "objectively" better than the generalized, more feminine, female masses. Just because it's a comedy podcast, doesn't mean there's no room to learn something!

That’s like saying “You are a clown !“ after WWII, to someone who had gone to the Weimar Republic twenty years before and said at that time “Germany is already great” after the prodigious recovery post-WWI. But I bet you think Germany was great in the ‘30 until ‘45. So, for you, my example doesn’t really work. Dangnabbit!
