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

So I've had a bunch of teachers who are super cool, like this guy, Tim, my astronomy professor in ninth grade, Mrs. Zanetti, my creative writing teacher in sixth grade, and this really cool dude at my college in New Orleans named Charles Cannon, who taught me a class called New Orleans Mythology. My three favorite classes besides my journalism classes. And they all hit me up.

And they're like, hey, man, saw you said you hated every class. Sorry I couldn't be everything that you wanted me to be. And so I just want to say shout out to all those teachers. I didn't hate every class. The point that I was making is that being forced into the institution of school so young and having to take common core classes like biology, dissecting frogs.

history of the Han dynasty, stuff like that, that I didn't want to learn, but I had to learn multiple times. I mean, I learned about the dynastic cycle in ancient China, three separate times at three different schools. And I was like, who is writing this curriculum? And why is it so important that I understand this process? Yeah.

The part that makes school difficult, especially in college, is that you have people just going to school just to get the degree who don't really know exactly what they're interested in. And they don't even have time to figure that out because they're in a business program or a communications program with no specific interest.

And it is somewhat interesting, the Silk Road and the Great Wall and Terracotta, the soldiers and stuff. But I'm just saying, when I got to college, I signed up for journalism school, right? And I didn't get to take a media class until the second semester. And I had to take everything prior to that. And I'd already spent so much time.

I just think the excruciating boredom of schooling left a bad taste in my mouth. But there was individual classes that I liked a lot.

And you're also saying so Wikipedia is not always perfectly right. No, but it's just interesting because like I've said so much in podcasts, but that's what they isolated. And I've gotten that question before, which I understand it's the first thing on my Wikipedia page, but it makes me sound like a super hater. Have you ever seen this Instagram page called Depths of Wikipedia? Oh, it's great.
