Hi, I’m Zach Grossfeld.

I host The Zach Show, write The Zach Files, and I post bonus content on The Zach Show 2.0. Everything I make lives under Auxoro Studios.

The Zach Show

Zach Grossfeld sits down with the people who fascinate him, from comedians and athletes to scientists and dominatrixes. Zach explores the defining moments of their work, the challenges they’ve overcome, what drives them, and what they're still trying to figure out.

Past guests include FINNEAS (music artist/producer), Mark Normand (comedian), James Fallon (Neuroscientist), Eben Britton (NFL/psychonaut), Andy Weir (author), Mistress Natalie (dominatrix), Coleman Hughes (writer/podcast host), Ryan Serhant (real estate), Dorothy Roberts (Law Professor), and hundreds more.
