I had never heard of Andrew Callahan before this interview was posted, but this was definitely one of the best interviews I've listened to on Lex's channel. And given the breadth of guests Lex interviews that says a lot for Andrew Callaghan.
This kid is a legend of gonzo.
Lex is the fucking man and Andrew Callahan is a goddamn genius
I’ve been suffering with hppd for about 14 years now. I’m so desperate for help man. I’d love to talk to Andrew about this if u ever see this man maybe leave a comment. I wanna find this Dr.Abraham guy.

homie I was somewhat cancelled/defamed unfairly in 2021 by my exes parents.
Felt exactly like this right after. Being treated like a social pariah over malicious baseless accusations and then the social media sheeple stoked the fire bc that’s just what they do. Judge others from their armchair with ZERO knowledge of the situation . Spewing out speculative criticism about your character as if they know you. It’s pretty ridiculous how inconsiderate people can be… It’ll really f you up.
And like Lex said you’ll see how weak most people in and around your life really are. Most friends you thought were ride or die, will vanish. Those few who hang around and have your back are the real Gs tho. Hang on to those friends.
I’m glad you didn’t kill yourself Andrew. Thanks for your content man 🤙
Way to support a company that’s playing a role in destroying this country 👍
Phish heads were never discussed.
His teacher made him who he is.
100%
you can have iron and oxygen, but the teacher smelts it together
i always suspected that andrew was perma-fried. he doesnt smoke weed, despite his stoner locution. his mind is full of sagacious insight into human nature that isnt gained from book learning or science.
empathy isnt taught. its felt.
the man is quite literally a hippie wizard that has REAL MAGIC lingering in his mind from all his former attempts at mental alchemy.
everything about this duud makes so much sense now.
right before lex read the thing about the shrooms, i literally thought to myself, "the way andrew makes such intense eye contact and facial expressions, its like he's tripping his balls off or tapped in to a much higher plane of existence🫶🏻🔥
This is one of the best podcasts I've ever listened to. Both men being vulnerable made it so relatable. Thank you
Calla Gan? The Jan 6th thing wasn't a riot…ur dumb
Alex Jones didn't rile anybody up.He didn't push people into anything crazy.January 6 was a setup.And if you don't know that by now you are paying attention, Alex Jones was exercising his constitutional right to protest An election, Along with many many other americans who felt the same way
Asa clown. Colorado is fucking amazing!
Anybody who talks about alex jones and thinks he's doing it for economic gane is crazy, If you really listen to what Alex Jones says on a daily basis you will realize.He is way more right than he ever is wrong
lex I think you graduated from harvard, You should know by now.The place is a goddamn and doctor nation center and you have been indoctrinated into the liberal left this ideology
Lot lizard vibes
🔥ALEX JONES WAS RIGHT🔥
I pre drank mickeys every day White Suberia hip hopper gone clad tb go get yo eyes check. He’s xus something not right
Rooster laid eggs, come on brother.
How about dropping the name of the film holy fuck I get it it’s on max but wtf is it called
Hellllllll yessss. Love andrew
I just started talking to may dad after 6 years. He is still into these wild q anon and now into crazy flat earth portal shit. I don't know how I can have a relationship with him, his wife, and my brother, without ending up arguing with them about how science works. They will just think I'm brainwashed and call me cock because I believe I'm smarter than them. Sorry to put this on you all, but it's just weighing on me and I don't know wtf to do. I miss my family. Figure strangers unbiased advice may help.
Uhhhh… yea, try having your country given away by foreigners who control your government, then finding this hope movement that tells you everything will be OK. Someone is very methodically stealing this country from the founding stock. Lex knows them heh We can ALL see it now. The Anne Frankenstein monster is coming to get you. We're gonna see if the mind control devices everyone has in their pockets will deceive them long enough for the perpetrators to escape to Ukraine… which is their new stolen homeland because it isn't surrounded by sand ppl that wanna eat them.
It's interesting that beat poetry is in a lot of people opinion…. the first rap known to man.
Where did you come from, where did you go…. I lost it. Calm down cotton eye joe 😂
I absolutely admire that you edited in a crash zoom directly after asking about what a crash zoom was is.
30:26 "where did you come from cotton-eye Joe" LOL
@1:11:47 last I checked, roosters don't lay eggs..
What a great interview as Andrew was growing up in the digital world everybody got to see all his successes and all his failures and his struggles. Listening to the maturity in his voice now is just a part of everybody growing up I think Andrew has such a great angle that he takes with his content and his interviews and I really enjoy everything that he has done and I wish him nothing but the best in the future and I had no idea that this happened 8 minutes before the biggest moment of his life talk about a Life lesson I am really glad that he was able to pull through and get through the dark time
Can we get the full conversation not a clipped up version that doesn’t flow?
