About

This website archives as much of Z Man’s output as reasonably possible.

It was built with hugo (on a modified Archie theme) so it can be deployed as a static site on free hosts like Netlify, Cloudflare Pages, Github Pages, etc.

Z Man’s content was downloaded manually or with yt-dlp and podcast-dl. The content was normalized, renamed, and categorized with love before uploading to the Internet Archive (IA) via the ia CLI.

You can help preserve this archive and Z Man’s legacy by downloading local copies of the content. The article texts, audio & video episodes, and mirrors of the original thezman.com site are all available on the Internet Archive using the search query:

uploader:remolish creator:Z Man.

As of October 2025, there were 56 results for this search query on the Internet Archive.
