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

Well, yeah. I mean, I didn't drink at all before I had the HPPD stuff. And I would have drank later in life, but definitely like 14, 15. Every day after school, I'd drink a 40 ounce of Mickey's. It's like a, it kind of looks like old English, but the bottle's green and it has a hornet on the side of it. Just kind of became a ritual just to deal with the anxiety of that situation.

Okay, we need to clear this up because on my Wikipedia page, for some reason, for Andrew Callahan early life, it says, Andrew hated every single class except for one.

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.
