Andrew Callaghan is back on YouTube, and he plans to remain active for the next 55 weeks. The filmmaker known for his man-on-the-street interviews has returned to his Channel 5 hub nine months after he was accused of sexual misconduct.
Callaghan rose to fame on the channel All Gas No Brakes, on which he traveled across the country conducting interviews with strangers. Alongside with co-founders Nic Mosher and Evan Gilbert-Katz, Callaghan split from the All Gas No Brakes hub in 2021 to launch a new venture called Channel 5. His star continued to rise when he directed This Place Rules, an HBO documentary about the January 6 uprising.
Shortly after the film’s release, Callaghan found himself in hot water. At least three women accused him of sexual coercion. One of the accusers claimed that Callaghan “wasn’t taking a simple no for an answer” after the pair met on a dating app.

If you’re the type of person who can’t fall asleep without spending a few minutes (or hours) on your For You Page, then Calm has news for you. The wellness app has debuted Once Upon a TikTok Tale, a story narrated by “voice of TikTok” Kat Callaghan.
Calm’s TikTok Tale is a long-form saga that takes listeners through dreamy versions of popular TikTok trends. If you can stay awake long enough, Callaghan will present you with Asmr delivery, lo-fi beats, and much more. Callaghan’s voice becomes slower and softer as the story heads toward its subdued conclusion.
Callaghan co-hosts a show for a radio station in Ontario, but she’s best known as the disembodied voice of TikTok’s text-to-speech function. For years, she performed that duty anonymously, but she revealed her true identity last year. For Calm’s TikTok Tale, she adopts a persona named Jessie.

Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards lived fast when the band was at its peak. He cultivated a bad-boy image within the group, but his wild behavior revealed itself years earlier when he got kicked out of the boy scouts. The guitarist lived fast, but he drove slow. Richards picked up a $162.50 traffic ticket in 1975 because of his slow driving. As Rolling Stones bandmate Ronnie Wood tells it, Richards was lucky to escape having another drug arrest.

Update: Andrew Callaghan is addressing the sexual misconduct allegations and apologizing for his behavior.
“I hadn’t realized I had had this pattern that had affected multiple people. I’d like to apologize for my silence. When this stuff first came out, I was in a state of denial and shock,” Callaghan said in video shared on YouTube. “I was denounced by my closest collaborators and my name was printed in 40 different news outlets, next to the words ‘sexual misconduct.’ I just kind of spiraled into a mental health crisis.”
He continued, “I’m okay now, but I don’t think this is about me. This is about the people I’ve affected. So I just want to express my complete sympathy, support and respect for anyone that I’ve done wrong by. I really want to do better and be fully accountable for everything that I’ve done.”

Andrew Callaghan — host of YouTube channels All Gas No Brakes and Channel5, and filmmaker behind HBO’s 2022 documentary This Place Rules — has apologized after being accused by multiple women of sexual misconduct.
Callaghan began his four-and-a-half minute YouTube clip stressing that he wants to be “fully accountable” and “transparent,” and thanks “every single person who’s came out in the past week to speak about different ways in which my behavior has made them feel uncomfortable or pressured during a sexual situation and to people who said that I’ve made unwanted advances.

Andrew Callaghan has issued a statement after multiple women accused him of sexual misconduct.
Allegations came first from Caroline Elise, who posted a three-minute video on TikTok Jan. 5 where she describes an experience she had with Callaghan in 2021. Before going into the details, she explains that she had “tried to come to [Callaghan] person-to-person and tried to get him to take responsibility for what he did, but his version of what happened the night he assaulted me is so skewed.”
Elise alleges she allowed Callaghan to stay at her house for one night because he’d had a falling out with his crew members and needed somewhere to sleep, but says she was “very clear about the fact that we are not hooking up.”
“I will tell you that he eventually did get consent,” she says. “And that’s the main point, is that he eventually got consent because he wore me down.

Indie filmmaker Andrew Callaghan, known for his man-on-the-street Channel 5 YouTube interviews and HBO documentary “This Place Rules,” has addressed allegations of sexual misconduct that were made against him in early January.
In a statement sent to Variety, Callaghan’s legal representative said, “Andrew is devastated that he is being accused of any type of physical or mental coercion against anyone. Conversations about pressure and consent are extremely important and Andrew wants to have these conversations, so he can continue to learn and grow. While every dynamic is open to interpretation and proper communication is critical from all those involved, repeated requests for money should not be part of these conversations.”
The statement continues, “With that, balanced communication is paramount to any relationship dynamic and Andrew vows to be better in this regard, while reminding his audience that while even one concerned partner is too many, there are always multiple sides to a story.

Andrew Callaghan, the comedian behind A24 and HBO January 6 documentary “This Place Rules,” is facing multiple sexual misconduct allegations after two women came forward this month accusing the internet comedian of pressuring them to have sex.
The “All Gas No Brakes” YouTube channel comic, known for his deadpan lampooning of society on the margins with man-on-the-street style interviews, from QAnoners to Burners and Flat Earthers, has yet to publicly address the allegations. Caroline Elise, the user @cornbreadcasserole on TikTok, alleged that Callaghan asked to spend the night at her place following a falling out with a fellow crewmember. Despite her rebuffs, he “eventually got my consent because he wore me down.” She added, “I said whatever because I was trying to get the whole thing over with…it doesn’t discount that I told him no. [He] still found a way to coerce me into doing things I didn’t want to do.
