Last month, it was widely reported that 'Call Her Daddy' host Alex Cooper signed a contract with Spotify worth $60 million. She says her understanding of millennials is the key to her success: “In negotiations, I own the audience they all want.”

The deal means that fans of her podcast, who affectionately call themselves the “Daddy Gang,” will be getting more episodes of it: Cooper says there will be 48 main episodes ofa year, plus 26 bimonthly mini-episodes, though Spotify says exact numbers are still in development. She hopes for in-person live events too.

The biggest addition to Cooper’s job, though, is that she’ll be hosting a second podcast, which is still in early development and will likely focus on crime, she says. “I’m a competitive psycho. I’ve recognized that in the [podcasting] space right now, crime is huge. Everyone wants crime,” she says during an interview at the Greenwich Hotel in New York City. In person, Cooper is warm, chatty and exudes an easy confidence. “I want to be the biggest podcast in the world,” she says at one point. Last year,was Spotify’s fifth-most-popular podcast globally and number two in all female podcast categories globally.

It’s not even good.

How does Spotify cover her 20 million salary and make a profit off her.This business model of borrowing crazy and selling stakes in the company and then selling it off one day with 2 billion in debt is how these bonkers salaries are financed.

She realizes that toe-faced Nelwyn Joe Brogran has her beat by 40 million? I mean, not that 60 million is anything to be sad over, but...

White nonsense aka Garbage 😌

Never heard of it til now 🤷🏻‍♀️

Who?

How are you gonna compete with the mcelroys nice try internet

I don’t understand anything anymore.

It's so easy for a true intelligent woman to rise above these lemmings

So much hate in the comments. She’s creating her own empire and owning it good for her! Stay up queen 👑

Sound lame off the name

Trash

Wow, I wish I could do this. Being 55 years old I think I'd bring a lot of wisdom & insight.

Owning audience… the lamest thing I’ve heard all day.

Who is Alex Cooper

Never heard of her.

The most empowering woman ever, and obviously second place would have to go to Snooky and the jersey shore gang.

pavasov spotify cuts a $60m check to advance the distribution of utter depravity 😂 Good for her I guess

Gross

No, that's the wrong host. Sophia deserves it more.

Lotta replies here getting duped by the 'bigger than Jesus' line despite it being over 50 years old at this point.

Yeah but has or hasn’t she smoked DMT before?

Sex sells, well done alexandracooper - get yours.

Who? Why do I care?

Who?

oops, miss click.. i thought it said Call of Duty.

If anyone here is interested in Lifestyle podcast where issues about adulting are discussed check out Her Reel Chat podcast on And if you are a Christian please check out

Who

Been there…

I see mediocrity is still handsomely rewarded.

Don’t even no or care who this is.

Ok JustinMcElroy travismcelroy griffinmcelroy we need a seductive bedroom photo shoot, stat!

Talk about wrapped up in herself. Well i guess that defines millennials. They deserve each other.

Shes totally talented and its not at all 45 year old guys listening to her while they snap their carrot..

I mean I can respect the hustle but I just wish they would give people of color the same opportunities to even have a meeting or a platform.

She’s not whining that boomers have fucked up her life?

I have genuinely never heard of this podcast or this woman why does she get a million dollar deal to talk more

Who?

Sorry, I'll pass.

7 tweets and this is trending.

Never heard of her.

I really wanna know who her audience is because this shit is cringe 😬

Rich White Girl still wants that pony.

😭😂😭😂😅

Ratio + Rogan better

Never heard of her 🤷🏻‍♂️

I couldn't make it through 10 mins. It's basically the average pretty narcissist in your life, word vomiting about herself for an hour. I WANTED to like it...very disappointed.

Won’t pass joe rogan

Never heard of her or this show

She lost me at 'I own the audience'

hehe all the drama she had with her friend and barstool and she still gets money she is daddy hehe😂

I didn’t even realize people really listened to Spotify podcasts.

Reason 9,543,698 that the movie Idiocracy was prophecy.

Who the fuck is she? I have no idea

Cooper: 'want to have biggest podcast in the world' LeBatardShow

Who is this? Did she fall out of the shock jock Era of the 90s and 2000s? She appears to dress like she's 15 years late. Still don't know who she is. I can talk raunchy and give better empowerment advice. Can I get $5 mil and we will be square?

Been there, heard that, unsubsribed.

So...WSJ made an investment on this and that is why you are pimping it?

the level of hate in these comments is astounding. she found a niche and is getting paid!

If this woman is influencing the minds of women my age, then I'm really gonna have to start embracing the dick side of my bisexuality cause there is no redemption for women.

She's a virgin whos never given great head, IMO

weird. who is she?

And The H3 podcast is not too far behind. Already surpassed the Ben Shapiro show, so this should be interesting to see. 😙

Man Sofia must be regretting listen to your clown of boyfriend. Look what she has missed out on dam I be hurt lol

I have never heard of this person until this very moment. 🤷🏻‍♂️ I’m too busy living my own life.

SO 🔥👹🔥

Made it to the top 15. Vote let's win it all .thank you.

Peak capitalism at it again. Privileged person 'owns' the masses. Spotify blows RIDICULOUS contract on someone to ramble aimlessly for 20 mins at a time. RIP humanity.

It lacks flavors…

who?

Why would anyone listen to this?

Is she the Joe rogan for women

Who is she I liked the history of Rome and lights out podcast

She seems pissed off the only way she can make a lot of money to buy plastic clothes is by pretending she's sekshuallyselfempowered or something like that

i'm a millennial and i have no idea who this is

Idk. Woman in the new generation have forgotten its men that built the entire modern world. Invented everything that made the world what it is today. And are literally the only reason woman have the opportunity to be strong and independent. So you know once in awhile a ty to men.

Good for her! Amazing!

curious how much spotify gets out of these podcasts. brand new area with podcast deals this large. i guess theoretically if you followed terrestrial radios model with local adds, and then not having local shows its a good deal

fakedansavage is vastly superior.

Meh … go listen to HardcoreHistory for a good podcast!!!

some people want the biggest d*ck in the world… but not eveyone gets what they want.

Who listens to this garbage 🤮

Who?

Never heard of her.

WeezyWTF is next!

Who the heck is Alex Cooper?

Millennial here. Never heard of her. Won't listen a single second of her podcast with such attitude involved

Who?

🙄

It saddens me my friends listen to her and are actually moved by the stuff she says...

She “owns” the audience they all want? 🙄 Sadly true but also narcissistic as hell.

Our generation is screwed. I mean congrats on the success but it’s just all so 🤢

I have no idea who this is.

Kinda disgusting the stuff she discusses not a good role model

Millennials, if this is what you aspire to and relate to, you have wasted your life.

Who?

I feel for the morons who listen to this shit ! Mostly guys living their fantasies thru some female podcaster who talks about sex and she's getting rich off their backs doing it .

I don’t know who this is and I’m grateful for it 😂

Biggest podcast in certain category.

AlexCooper will have to beat my podcast first:

60 million? Now I understand why spotify has been advertising on my feed yet another podcast that has nothing to do with what I’m interested in or that I will ever listen to.

They will NEVER recoup the money they gave this slore. Never seen a bigger waste

I'll stick to a much better podcast with Dan Cummins called 'Time Suck'! Hail Nimrod!

Who?

Barf

Darn! I was hoping I read that wrong and it was really Alice Cooper doing the podcast....

Who?

Horse face

Never heard of it

It’s disgusting

Dr Ruth but not a doctor, not real advice, and for young people

Isn’t every episode the same thing though? If you’ve heard one, you’ve heard them all. 🤷‍♂️

If she had the biggest podcast, Spotify would be offering her the $100m Rogan deal, not a measly $60m…

I didn't realize woman empowerment was teaching girls how to gaslight and abuse men... but what do I know

People love garbage I guess.

🤔 *scrolls list* FF but never listened.

Who?

ChrisLilley already does an alexandracooper show on Spotify. It’s called Ja’miezing.

She’s yt are people really surprised? Mediocrity is rewarded nowadays in huge ways and it’s not just yt ppl either.

Mediocrity continues to thrive.. this and joe Rogan are the epitome of wasting words.

60mil to hear some random lady most have never heard of talk. Good for her

G spot...needs to be boycotted

Yikes that’s kinda bad timing to be talking about being the top podcast when a major podcaster just passed away…. CHD and SRD are equally as well-known so it’s obvious who her competition is. Sad.

Cool, than she can earn it on her own. We dont need neoliberals outlets trying to derail joe Rogan even though he is also a hardpass from me. Y'all are no better.

I was able to make it 48 seconds listening to the podcast before I had to turn it off. Never heard anyone trying so hard.

Hard pass.

Never heard of her.

Talks about her sex life makes 60 million. Got it

Sorry, sometimes she’s funny but her interview w/ Chelsea Handler was like listening to paint dry. There’s no direction for her show. I hope it gets better, but it seems like they wan to give a hot chick that cusses a lot a big microphone and she doesn’t know what to say into it

Skinny conventionally attractive white person making $60 million talking about female empowerment lmao

This is the biggest podcast in the world

'Female Empowerment' means using your body parts to make money. Worked for the Kardashians, works for many other women.

That story pic looks like he came right off a porn shoot

That's funny cause that's my goal too! come check out my page! :)

got a totally new face.

Who?

Owns the audience. Too bad the audience doesn't know who the fuck she is. Literally who is that? Never even heard of her.

Also this the best you can do?

Wow another podcast how original…

Never heard of it

'I own the audience they all want'...if you're a fan, remember you're owned

60 million for sharing personal opinions that come with no professional license through a microphone and being very arrogant about it as well. Corporations really using that tax money to good use ☠️

I weep for my millennial sisters if this chick 'owns the audience.' I listened to one episode, not even all the way through. Awful. Removed it from my follows immediately. Pass!

Whoever she is, I’m very glad I’ve never heard of her.

literally an hour of blondes giggling about how to suck dick. most boring podcast out there rn.

Understating your audience/customers and engaging with them is key! Podcast + PodcastAndChill + Sexy + HotSummer

Yet she sat there and defended taking her less than a million a year contract from douche canoe Dave portnoy and thought it was fair 🤣 Sophia deserves an apology

who?

No thanks.

“I own…” What now?

She’s not even a good interviewer. She constantly interrupts her guests and redirects the conversation back to her 🤨

🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸In America's richest state, California, it is possible to imagine a huge investment of 6 billion. $$ that reflects a mass of extreme poverty reproduced by the peculiar characteristics of the left-wing 'democratic' government.

Sadly, I’ve aged out of entertainment… thank god for niches

She and her guests discuss innovative ways to perform oral sex on men, so, $20M per year 🤷🏻‍♂️

Should I know who this is? I can't relate to most millennials, probably not worth finding out.

Nice to see she finally ditched the fake tan.

Help us

I think the show should be renamed to 'Call Your Daddy', and the audience can listen to her dialing up her father to tell him of all her 'exploits', while we can eavesdrop on an exasperated sigh of desperation and the clink of glass as he pours himself another stiff drink.
