#425 – Andrew Callaghan: Channel 5, Gonzo, QAnon, O-Block, Politics & Alex Jones

They text, they emailed every production company that I was working with, DM hundreds, if not thousands of people like just saying that like I was this piece of shit and I didn't even know who this person was. So I was frantically calling and texting like every person that I'd seen intimately for the past year and be like, Hey, are we on good terms? Is everything okay? And then I figured out that

to help you again. I apologize. And she said, apology accepted. I'm sorry. My friend asked if she could post on my behalf. And I'm sorry, I was going through a lot mentally and I saw your fame increasing. And so I agreed to let her speak on my behalf. And we made amends in private. I said, okay, I'm here for you, let me know.

And she said, apologies enough, thank you for taking the time to speak with me. And that was two years prior to this text message being sent to my phone eight minutes before the movie. So naturally, I wanted to go on my platforms and talk about what was happening. But I also didn't want to mess up the rollout of the movie, you know?

And so the PR firm was like, we got this, we'll handle this for you. And that was, I guess, by way of a TMZ thing that said, Andrew Callahan is devastated. I'm not sure why they thought that that was going to make people...

But I will tell you that I try to lean away from resentment and toward accountability completely. What was my role in the situation? How can I never make someone feel like that again? What can I do? What changes can I make to make sure that one, I never treat someone this way, and two, to never be in that position again? Well, again, thank you for taking accountability.
