But the thing is, is that I have been using Honey Honey Guys is an online shopping tool that saves you money online and it's fucking free.

And then it automatically finds just the best promo codes and it applies them to your cart. So there's no reason not to you literally go to check out. I did at Urban Outfitters the other day.

[00:01:09]

Do you call him daddy. Do I call her daddy. Call her daddy. What's up guys?

[00:01:20]

Welcome back to call her daddy. It is your now single father, Alex Cooper, back at it again for another episode.

[00:01:31]

Holy fucking shit. That felt good. It's been so fucking long.

[00:01:37]

Damn. I've been trying to sit down and record this episode, and every time I've gone to do it genuinely, I didn't know how to start it. But I have to tell you guys and daddy gang, I have never felt more fucking support from you guys. This week has been one of the craziest fucking weeks of my entire life.

[00:02:03]

I feel as much as I am alone, I'm not fucking alone at all, and I want to let you guys know how much I appreciate that support because it has kept me going. It's the reason I'm in this fucking chair right now. The only way I could take this on by myself. I've been doing 80 plus episodes with the co-host. How the fuck does one podcast alone? I don't fucking know. But I'm here because of you guys. Because you guys are saying I can do it.

[00:02:32]

You guys are supporting me. So here we fucking are.

[00:02:36]

I'm going to talk a little bit about the overall situation, what has gone down. Then I'm going to present you a huge new edition that is coming to this show that I am so fucking excited about. And then I'm going to dedicate questions of the week for this episode solely to the entire situation, the funeral.

[00:03:01]

Now, I asked the daddy gang before I came to record what are questions that you still have about the situation? Obviously, I'm aware this is fucking rock to everyone. I mean, it feels like the whole fucking world is involved in this shit. So it's important to me that I give you guys as much clarity on the situation as possible. The lost back and forth, big communication that Sophia and I had with each other was fucking awful. She said some things to me that I can't imagine ever saying to a friend.

[00:03:34]

And I think. You know, you're best friends with someone and this shit happens so fucking quickly, you don't expect it to go down like this. I get so many texts, like, how are you feeling? I'm like, I don't know, how should I feel right now? So. I want to kind of get a little deep with you guys here, and this isn't going to be a normal call her daddy podcast because I think that I would literally be a sociopath if I was OK.

[00:04:04]

And today, folks, the Cooper's special get down on that deck and slurp the fuck out of it's like no bitch like you just lost your best friend. The whole show is different.

[00:04:14]

So I need to. Take a minute and go through this with you guys. It's so crazy because when this podcast started, I remember going into it not knowing if one person was going to listen to it. No concept of even where we were going to upload it. I didn't know what an RSS feed was. It was like I had no fucking clue. So when we went to record call her daddy in the very beginning, we just said whatever the fuck we wanted, the industry is so crazy.

[00:04:48]

When you start and you don't have anyone listening, you say whatever the fuck you want. There are no parameters. And it's weird because I'm sitting here today knowing that millions of people are listening to me and it's fucking terrifying, it's what I live for, but it's also fucking terrifying. I'm 25 years old. I've never had a platform like this. I mean, picture yourself, sit down in front of a microphone and every single word you say is going to be dissected and picked up by millions of people.

[00:05:20]

And I'm aware that that is what I signed up for. And it's honestly the best fucking job in the world. It really fucking is. But it is also terrifying, I just realized that people are going to be like, Kate, bitch, you literally talk about sucking dick.

[00:05:37]

Why all of a sudden are you nervous to talk? It's like, OK, I understand. I think what I mean by that is last night I was thinking.

[00:05:46]

So far on this show. I have shown the side of myself that is so outgoing, so she'll talk about sex crazy, wild shit, I've even told everyone I'm going to release a blowjob that's named after myself like, bitch, there is no limit. But when I dropped that YouTube video, guys, I had to obviously be the Alex that walks into business meetings.

[00:06:17]

And I've never shown that side of myself on this show. Probably because I think as the show got bigger, it was in, quote unquote on Brand. I think obviously the worst thing is when you look at the industry and you see people become so inauthentic, it's like people lose themselves and that's the last fucking thing I want to happen. So in a weird fucking way, although I lost my best friend in the show, the show has literally gotten turned on its fucking head.

[00:06:46]

I can't help but think it was kind of a blessing and a reset moment. I was in bed. Well, not literally, but I was in bed with someone that was literally in bed with the wrong people, and I think there are so many people listening, you guys don't even have to be in the fuckin entertainment industry. You can be a teacher, you can be a doctor, you can work out a fucking restaurant. You can be a bartender.

[00:07:11]

Wherever this kind of shit can happen, anywhere you get involved with the wrong people and it affects everyone around you.

[00:07:20]

But having a platform today on social media exploits it tenfold. So what I'm trying to say is, I think as I've had time to process this over the past few weeks, I'm like, what? Where do I go from here? What do I do? I think I didn't know. I didn't know if you guys, the listeners would accept the side of me. About my education, about the way I was raised, about my friends outside of my co-host and the family I have and my fuckin parents have been married for over 35 fucking years, I didn't have anyone looks at Alex Cooper.

[00:07:55]

They're like degenerate, who are like literally crawled out of a sewer. But it's like, no, I my parents are the most in love fucking couple.

[00:08:03]

You know, you start a sex podcast in comedy and it blows the fuck up. And every single week there is this enormous amount of pressure. Stay funny, be funny, say something crazy, stay relevant. Top last week's episode. And I'm sitting here right now and I'm like, I just want to talk about real shit, not that it wasn't real before. Like, I don't want to I don't want to discredit anything. It was it was so fucking real.

[00:08:32]

But I think what ended up happening is like it got too formatted. It was too forced. We felt like we had to have a sex topic every fucking week. And it's like, well, what if I literally didn't have sex, how? What if I hadn't tried, like a new move on a weenie? Like, what the fuck? Why would I force it like that?

[00:08:52]

Literally, I'm like, oh, my God, OK, blowjob logia. But what if I haven't sucked a dick in two weeks? What do you want from me? You know what I mean? So it's like instead of forcing it, having to have a sex segment every week, it's like, why not talk instead about what I feel in that moment or whatever the fuck is going on in my life. But what if people don't want that? They want the crazy all the time.

[00:09:18]

I don't know, it's it's fucking wild, it's like I've been able to talk to my family about it for a while and a part of me feels like I can take a deep breath right now because maybe this is a blessing. Maybe I can actually finally merge my entire life into this show and not just keep it so sexualized. I feel like people are listening to them, they're they're like freaking out, they're like, is this bitch about to go Bible thumper on our assholes like Alex?

[00:09:46]

Don't leave us with them.

[00:09:49]

Sex is always going to be at the forefront of our minds. I know there are men listening to this right now as martyr or I'm just kidding.

[00:09:59]

But like I get it, we're all fucking horny. Sex is never going to be not a part of this motherfucking show. How could I abandon that? It's literally always on the tip of my fucking mind. I'm always horny. I always want to talk about sloppy fucking blowjobs. I love giving a goddamn blowjob. But sorry, but what else, what else? And I think this new era, this new fucking like single father, I'm like, call her daddy can be whatever the fuck we want it to be, whatever we need it to be.

[00:10:31]

And I think I tried to not show a side of myself, the business side, the human side, and I want to change that, I think it's important to be real with you guys.

[00:10:42]

I also apologize if this situation has hurt you, daddy gain. Like, obviously, it fucking hurt me, but you trusted us, you did not see this coming. Like, I had a little bit of a heads up here, like I was dealing with this behind the scenes, like I got to cry to my therapist for like a few weeks, like, not great moments, but I got to deal with it. I had my family supporting me and trying to get me through this.

[00:11:09]

This was a surprise to guys, and I am very aware of that. So. I guess why I'm bringing this up is because I want to hear from you guys. Do you want me to keep talking about this whole situation for a few more episodes? It literally is a breakup. We're mourning the loss of someone basically.

[00:11:30]

And I know as women we need to talk about things. I know the men are like, bitch, just give us the fucking sex tips. Just wrap it the fuck up.

[00:11:40]

But women, we fucking love to talk about shit we can drag shit on. I can drag shit.

[00:11:46]

I could sit on this fucking podcast and talk for three motherfucking hours like I swear to God. So I want to know, do you guys want me to continue to talk about this so we can basically like virtually grieve together? Or do we say, fuck it, we're better off without those motherfuckers, pick our shit up phase two, this motherfucker, and bounce out, never talk about it again. I don't know. I don't know. That's why I'm asking you guys.

[00:12:11]

I am sorry that shit changed. And I feel like it's a really weird fuckin situation because we're dealing with this. And while the world is like in chaos to like none of us expected motherfucking Korona.

[00:12:26]

But here we are. And we adapt this whole fucking brand the daddy gang knows best is how to be savage and fucking finesse and I haven't changed.

[00:12:40]

I'm still fucking here. I'm sitting in this seat and you guys are giving me the courage to do that. So I want to fucking hear from you guys. I want to know, do we need more time? Do we want to talk about this? Do we need time to process this all together? We're grieving or fuck it. I don't know. Let's think about it. OK, quickly, as I've told you, mother fuckers, we're not moving on from sex, this episode's a little more depressing, but we're not moving on from sex.

[00:13:10]

Listen, I have been masturbating more probably than others would like to admit, but I have a sex podcast so I can say these things. I've been masturbating up the wazoo. Adam and Eve, you guys know the fucking drill. Every single woman listening to this podcast. If you do not have a vibrator, I'm mad at you. I'm annoyed with you, Adam. And you guys, you know the drill. You guys can pick almost any one item and you're going to get 50 percent off and you get free shipping and it's delivered discreetly.

[00:13:40]

So all the people that are home right now and you're like, I don't really want my mom knowing, like, I got these butt plugs. Don't worry, it's fucking discreet. It's amazing. I tried a bunch of new products because they hook me up. And I have to admit, there's a lot of shit on there. They have like thousands of products. There's a lot of shit I may not have tried. And then I tried it and now I can't stop it.

[00:14:01]

You're all like, OK, Alex, or staying at home, we might as well be fucking playing at home. Oh, OK, guys.

[00:14:07]

So you're going to go to Adam and Eve Dotcom and you're going to use promo code. Her daddy again, that is Adam and Eve dot com and then use off code her daddy. All right.

[00:14:23]

I'm like sweating like profusely, like trying to keep cool getting into this fucking segment.

[00:14:28]

Because there before I started recording this episode, there was a a new discovery, a new part of the story that came out. If you guys saw on Dave's social media, Scooter Braun reached out to Erica and Dave calling on behalf of Sophia and Peter Nelson. I've tried to be very calm, I've tried to be very appropriate. I've tried to be very respectful. I think if anyone listens to show, you know, that I can be everything but that, but in this whole situation, people's lives are being affected and I've tried to be the complete opposite of who, you know, Maya's on call her daddy.

[00:15:22]

Not today, mother fuckers I need to fucking address. The fact that men with these big ass names in this industry are trying to come in and finesse their way in to call her fucking daddy first it's suit, man, go fuck yourself. Then agents at WME trying to adjust my contract. I've never met you again. Go fuck yourself. And now, Scooter fucking Braun. Beep, beep, motherfucker. Why are you here? Why are you always like, it's not that I fucking hate him.

[00:16:01]

I don't even know the guy, but like, fuck off. You're putting yourself in a situation where you're trying to involve yourself in drama that you don't know about. Again, I don't know if you guys know or you saw, but Sophia and Peter Nelson had Scooter Braun call on behalf of them and try to convince Erika and Dave. Give us a piece of color, Daddy. We're willing to just take fifty per. Oh, you're willing. Oh, you're willing.

[00:16:25]

No fucking shit. I want to address this because it's like, you know what? I would love to ask Scooter Braun. I would love to ask Peter Nelson. What do you know about color, daddy, can you go ahead, name me some terms? What does the show really about below the surface? What is the daddy game? Who is the daddy? And tell me. They can't because they don't give a fuck about this fuckin brand, they want a piece of the pie, they know the thing makes a lot of fucking money.

[00:17:00]

That's it. Scooter Braun calling on behalf of call her.

[00:17:04]

Oh, we're willing. Yep. Yep. First of all, why don't you go start by giving Taylor Swift her fuckin music back? I'm good, Daddy. Gang's fuckin good. We're good. Please stay the fuck away from us.

[00:17:21]

I'm sorry, but like, holy fucking shit, I didn't plan on this being in the episode, but, like, fuck off because at this point my old co-host is trying to have men come in and play penis games over a show that they do not know jack fucking shit about. They care about the money. They don't care about the fucking fans. They don't care about the fucking daddy game. They don't know shit. Now, seeing them calling in like these big names thinking this is going to change our fucking minds.

[00:17:51]

I want to be very fucking clear to every single man in the industry that wants to try to come and take a piece of the daddy gang again, if you're considering calling on behalf of Peter Nelson and Sophia Franklin, suck my fucking dick. We are not for fucking sale. You can't just call and be like, yep, we're ready to take 50 percent of the daddy gang. We don't want you. It's sad.

[00:18:22]

But it's just reaffirming to me that I made the goddamn right decision. I need to drink water right now because I think I just pooped and peed my pants at the same time, I just got so mad. Let's all take a breath. All right. I need to take a water break. God damn, this shit is hard doing on my own. I'm used to having someone that like I take water. She talks. Give me a second. All right.

[00:18:48]

I'm hydrated. This is exciting, this is going to be like a more upbeat part of the fuckin episode, so sorry if this has been sad, but it's also a funeral, you know, so we got to.

[00:19:02]

Be a little fuckin respectful, I hope all you motherfuckers are wearing black. The future of call her daddy, I think everyone, I'm reading your dreams to me, and it's like, where are we going with this? What are we going to do? The future of this show. And high risk sounding really fucking corny here, but just go with me. The future of call her daddy, this show is whatever the fuck we want it to be.

[00:19:35]

And so I want to have a discussion with you guys about that right now, because I'm so fucking excited trying to be respectful and not be too excited on this episode. But I'm so fucking excited. So I'm going to explain to you guys moving forward a segment that I want to bring into this show. My plan is that a daddy gang member will be making an appearance almost every single episode over this next year. And who fucking knows, maybe I'll hit it off with one of you will vibe, and then you can become my new co-host, who fucking knows?

[00:20:15]

But this is how it's going to work.

[00:20:16]

I want you guys, the daddy gang, to come on and tell us your story. You're going to send in your wildest stories, your deepest stories, any story that you think the daddy gang wants to hear. For now with Crota, I'm going to have to do phone interviews with you so we don't die. But then I'm going to play it for the daddy gang every single week in these episodes.

[00:20:40]

So you guys essentially get to pick the content for a segment each week. I think it's going to be cool. I also think it's a way to get to know each other. I understand that there are so many people around the world, like every time I see people do me like, oh, I'm I'm in Australia, I'm in the UK, I'm like, oh, fuck, this is wild. Like sometimes I forget how far the reaches. So this is a worldwide show.

[00:21:04]

Everyone is listening from fucking everywhere. So if you want to stay anonymous, that's totally fine. You can come on the show and we won't plug you and we won't say your name. We will totally respect that if you choose to share your identity and who you are. I will give the daddy gang all of your information, not like creepy like phone number address. Hit them up. No, I mean, like, I'll give them your Instagram and your Twitter will post you on the caller daddy social media.

[00:21:32]

And so the daddy game can hype you the fuck up and you're gonna get mad ass followers. I think that this it's a way more inclusive show, and that's what I want it to be, because at the end of the day, this show has a community of people that have basically become family. I read on the Internet when this whole thing was going down, I remember reading people being like, God damn, if this show ends, can we at least all stay connected?

[00:21:58]

Like, that's how much you fucking guys are like in this, like, we are literally a fucking gang.

[00:22:04]

We still need a gang sign, but. I see the threads of people, I see you guys trying to meet daddy gang in your areas, so why not help facilitate that through the biggest fucking platform? That is the show. I think it's really important. Being the voice right now of this show to emphasize, I do not give a fuck what people look like, what your gender is, what your sexual orientation is, if you listen to the call her daddy show and you see someone else you find out they do to you have a commonality.

[00:22:42]

You have something that you agree on and you both enjoy. So with this new fucking segment to me, I'm like, let's fuckin hang out, let's ride this year out together, let's meet, let's fucking talk. Let's talk about weird shit. Let's talk about fun shit, nasty shit, amazing tips, trick. Share it all together.

[00:23:00]

This is the coolest fucking listenership on the Internet right now, and if it was ever a fucking Dow, I think after this entire situation, it's only proved to literally be the strongest. I believe no other fucking podcast has this diverse of people that essentially pat ourselves on the fucking back. But like, we legit speak a different language. Like if you're not in the Daoudi gang, you're not going to get some of these jokes. You don't get our shit.

[00:23:27]

You don't get our lingo. And it's not that we're obviously like non-inclusive, but we are aggressive in embracing that we can be whoever the fuck we want to be and anyone that says otherwise can go fuck themselves. I'm here and I'm using this platform for myself and others to build friendships, not tear them down. And if I've learned one thing from this entire experience, it's like we all have a fucking story and I want to give you guys the platform to tell it, I'm not the only fuckin one with the story.

[00:24:01]

And that is the word from your goddamn father, a single father. God, it sounds. Does it have a little bit of a ring to it?

[00:24:09]

A single father, a divorce. I'm divorced. A divorced father.

[00:24:13]

A lonely father and I got fucking custody of a shit ton of children. I'm just fucking thankful I didn't bertholf you out of my motherfucking vagina because I need that goddamn thing locked and loaded for the end of Korona so I can give it to all my boyfriends. Oh, my God. I can't wait to get back.

[00:24:32]

And talking about the Canadian and Slim Shady, if they listen to those, they're like, oh, oh, I'm fucking coming for all of you, OK?

[00:24:41]

Do as the Romanoff's do. Mother fuckers. Men. Hello, it's Alex. I'm sure you all have beautiful dicks out there, but it's not so fucking beautiful when you splodge all over her fucking titties and you're like, whoa, that only lasted 30 seconds and then she never fucking calls you again because it's like mother fucker, I didn't come. I'm glad you did, loser. And I'm just kidding. But guys, actually, Roman swipes, you guys swipe them on your fucking decks and they help you last longer.

[00:25:09]

It's not you don't have to be ashamed of it. If you don't last that long, that's fine. You just swipe this on your dick. She's never going to know. You swipe down your dick and they clinically are proven to help you last longer. They're easy and fast acting and then they're in discreet, unmarked packaging. So you don't have to be embarrassed if it falls out of your pocket or she sees you doing some creepy shit in the fucking corner.

[00:25:28]

You're fine. You guys are going to go to get Roman dotcom daddy and you're going to get your first month of swipes for just five dollars when you choose a monthly plan. So what if five bucks? So get Roman dot com slash daddy. So stick with me, guys. Stick with me here. Hang in there. Brudno, I obviously know this is like fucking different.

[00:25:48]

I trust me, I have to get used to it too. I don't know how to do a podcast alone. I kind of feel like I feel a little narcissistic right now. I'm just sitting here staring at a fucking wall talking. Granted, I do think I can talk for hours but like I don't know, it's a bit concerning. I'm figuring it out. That's why I'm like, Daddy can get the fuck in here. I'm going to have guests on.

[00:26:10]

That's the whole the whole thing is like it's not going to just be me.

[00:26:13]

I know all of you are like, oh, thank fucking God, Alex, we love you. Like, look, fuck off.

[00:26:20]

I'm aware I don't want to hear my own voice because I have to edit the oh my God, I have to edit this show. We all fucking know that drama, but I have to edit the show and I don't think I would make it through this next year if it was just me. So there are going to be guests, there's going to be daddy gang, etc. I'm going to have barstool people come through like, trust me, it's not just going to be myself.

[00:26:41]

Oh, my God, I just. This next segment, it's just it's been so fucking long and I and I missed it. I missed you so fucking much because you know already where I'm going with it. Some of you are cringe and some of you are good. Mother.

[00:27:00]

Next, excited because the let me introduce you to the new girl who is.

[00:27:10]

Oh. Look, I just loved every fucking follower, everyone that's like new to the show is like, yo, this girl is fucking annoying. I'm sorry I had to ask questions of the week, guys. All right. So Questions of the week. This week, I decided that we are going to be like I'm going to be answering questions from the daddy gang about this entire situation. I know a lot of you still need clarity and still have questions.

[00:27:40]

So I'm going to do my best to go through these and explain everything as best as I can, because I'm very aware that you guys want to hear so. What did Sophea mean when she kept saying, I want to do the deal 50 50 and I tried to take the deal but couldn't under Alex's terms? OK, I think this is where barstool and I are pretty frustrated, Sofia did not take the deal and when it got held up and there were no more points coming in from her side, we had to move forward without her.

[00:28:15]

That's all it is. Everyone realized she's never going to be happy. There were more and more points and that eventually she stopped sending points and then she never sent her points. She said she wanted it. She never signed it. You know, you have a 50/50 deal in front of you in a partnership that's not 50/50, genuinely unlike like, how do you not take that? Like, I literally started to feel crazy. I'm like, am I the fucking crazy one?

[00:28:40]

Like, why am I agreeing to this? Hold on. So I think that's important to emphasize. And I, I want to make it very clear. It seemed to me, in my opinion, Sofia is 50/50 was about money, not labor. Again, never an issue about the labor, but the 50/50 she wanted was with regard to money. And I honestly, I think that's why it was really frustrating for me. I think anyone would be frustrated in that situation.

[00:29:08]

Sofia's asks were all more and more and more. And I was the one doing the work, work, work. It's like if someone should have been pressing for money, not trying to be like an asshole here. But if someone's going to fucking do the brigade and push for more money, I think it should be fucking me the one that does more of the work.

[00:29:29]

OK, now what is our living situation that is one of the biggest fucking questions of this in my dreams right now is like I know you two live together, like, what the fuck are you going to do? That's awkward as shit.

[00:29:41]

So actually, our lease is up in at the end of July. So we were going to have to move out soon anyways. And so I am going to move out and I'm going to move into a new place and I'm going to live alone. I'm not sure what Sophia's doing, but on my own, I'm really excited. I actually am about to sign on this place that I'm like.

[00:30:06]

So fucking excited for and I'm so excited to move in and like film in there, I want to vlog and like show you guys. And so that's yeah, I'm moving out. What? Oh, my God. This is this is the question that needs to be answered. And I need to fucking talk to you guys about this because I am very aware.

[00:30:24]

Why did you guys pretend to be poor? OK. We made these comments as kind of like a fuck you guys like fuck bar stool, hello. Like, why don't wake up? Like everyone's telling us we don't make enough fuckin money. Why the fuck aren't you guys paying us? And we were like, angry, like, so we did these jobs in these digs in our episodes thinking like maybe someone will fucking hear us and like feel dumb that we're not getting paid more.

[00:30:54]

And it was stupid and it was immature. And I want to apologize because I am very aware we put you guys in the middle of it, like you guys live and breathe our lifestyle. And we were making jobs at bars all through our content. And it was so fucking stupid and immature. And I am fully aware of that. And I apologize and I promise that will never fucking happen again. I'm aware of the deal I just signed and I'm so fucking grateful because you guys are the reason that I'm able to sign that deal.

[00:31:20]

So we put you guys in the middle of basically a war we were trying to have with barstool. And we should have just gone and had the conversation with Dave and Erica. Like that was just fucking stupid. And I apologize. Do you plan on participating with barstool more from here on out? The answer is yes. I grew up in a household where my father has worked for the NHL, so I did not. When we went to like Christmas parties for my dad's work, I was skating on the ice with the flyers.

[00:31:50]

Like I didn't look at my dad in a desk job as an accountant. I grew up around athletes. I was an athlete. My dad was an athlete. Everyone in my family was athletes. I fucking love sports. I date athletes. Let's just be real like fuck you all. But it's the truth. I love sports. So I think Bastable. Yeah, I want to engage more. I would love to talk about sports and just do more shit with people.

[00:32:13]

And I think that I, I want to apologize to everyone at bars too. I think that they felt like we were too good at times. I think that they thought that we didn't want to be a part of it. But really at the end of the day, it was because we wanted to focus on this brand and we didn't want to spread ourselves and go on all these different shows and we chose to stick with Audi. So I think it's important to you know, I want to have conversations with that people at bar and just be like, listen.

[00:32:40]

Let's have a private conversation and talk about this, or I'll go on their shows, whatever they want. This is a question that I want to address and it's difficult, but I think it needs to be addressed, someone said. Was she was Sophia and Peter's relationship toxic that you could tell and when I read this question, because it was one of the most highly requested questions, I didn't think it's fair for me to comment on the inner workings of someone else's relationship.

[00:33:09]

But I do feel like I need to address it a little bit because it directly affected me and it directly affected the show, obviously. Now you can see. So from what I witnessed from day one, the relationship was extremely controlling and Sophia had expressed serious concern about it being in a controlling relationship, and I watched Sophia slowly isolate herself with him. I will never forget because this is work related. So when Sophia and I went on our first big trip to L.A., you guys may remember we went on Logan Paul show, we went on fighter in the kid and we went on Nick BIOL show.

[00:33:52]

And it was our first big trip for call her daddy. And we like I literally was so excited. It was like a dream come true.

[00:34:00]

Like, you know, it's like we're going to L.A. and like we're going on shows like that's a fucking dream.

[00:34:07]

So we're getting ready to go to L.A. and during this time before we leave and this was very early and Sofia and Peter's relationship. He just so happened to also schedule a business meeting trip that weekend to L.A. and Sofia prior to the trip, said, hey, you know, this is like Alex and my first work trip, so I may not be able to see you. And from what I was told by her is he essentially threatened her and said, you will regret that decision if you do not see me, you will regret that.

[00:34:46]

Like, what the fuck, what are you going to like what? So I remember Sophia being so fucking stressed and I remember us getting there and she was she was like not present. She was texting. She was texting. And I felt bad. But I was also so fucking excited that I was like, bitch, wake up.

[00:35:04]

Like, we just we made it motherfucker. Like we're here. Like, this is so exciting. And Sophia was just not present. She was so stressed. And I remember before we went on one show, we were getting ready and she made up some dumb lie that after she was getting her hair done, she pretended she was like still getting her hair done at this Blow-Out bar.

[00:35:23]

And what she really did is she went to quickly see him. And I'm over here like, this is a work trip. This is our first work trip. I was so excited as best friends, more so to just, like, live this up together and also trying to jam in as many meetings as possible. And Sophia kept going, MIA and and she would leave the hotel room and like, it was so sketchy. And she didn't want to tell me because I think she knew, like, I was upset and she would run and get in his car and then come back.

[00:35:52]

I remember the last night before we left Logan and Mike and everyone invited us to go out and Sophia wanted to go see Peter and it fucking sucked because, like, I wanted to go party with them.

[00:36:05]

But I also knew, like, we needed to be a united front people sources to call her daddy girls. So if I went after that show with them and I just show up alone like it's not the way we wanted to present ourselves in the industry. So Sophia left the hotel room and I spent my last night of our trip alone in my hotel room. And then the next morning I went to the airport alone. The trip was ruined by Peter.

[00:36:31]

Another question is how my first and what was your first impression of Stutman? He was fucking weird.

[00:36:37]

Like there's literally a video of Sofia in our vlog, one of our blogs, four call her daddy. Sofia Logit says that for the first few dates, she thought the dude was a serial killer. Like, he's fucking weird, but whatever to each his own, I guess. How was Dave's rooftop? Oh, my God. Like the infamous fucking rooftop. I saw people were like rooftop roof deck roof. Like, what is it? It's a roof top deck, right?

[00:37:04]

Is that what it's called? Oh, know. Honestly, Dave, shout out it really well. It really wasn't as nice as I was expecting for how rich he is.

[00:37:12]

It was it was a little it was like a little grungy, but no, it was fine.

[00:37:17]

I mean, I don't have a fucking rooftop. So, Alex, can you please tell people to leave Sofia alone? There are so much poisonous hate being directed towards her right now, and it's so horrible to see there have been so many cyberbullying related comments. Please tell people to give her space. Guys digging, please. Listen, that is not OK at all. Ever. I don't support cancel culture. None of us should. We don't need to agree with Sofia and her decisions, but we absolutely don't need to be bullying her.

[00:37:50]

There's no excuse for that point blank. Fucking done. Don't need it. OK, why do you think Sofia was so against the bar stool rooftop deal? Some people have speculated that Sofia and Stutman were going to go behind your back with the one drug deal and get some slice under the table and get more money than you in the long run. So it's so fucking crazy because from day one, when Peter got involved, my entire family kept warning me, like, listen, we want to be supportive.

[00:38:20]

We don't want to get involved in your business, but just be aware people don't do shit for free, OK? Like he may love her. They're not even fucking married, like. It's a little weird how invested he is, because the amount of documents we were sent, the amount of fucking shit that was sent to us pages and pages, business plans, how to start our own company, he would always mention and you're gonna need a business manager so that it was weird.

[00:38:50]

And I think Sophea had even told me along the way that, like, he was going to leave HBO and go start some new podcast with his or, you know, start a podcast company with his friend. So as months went on, she went shit like that, started to come out and like, oh, wonderful, we're just fucked. Good evening, Peter Nelson.

[00:39:11]

Like, it was just so obvious that he was there for not just out of the goodness of his princess's heart, like, oh, it was like, bitch, you want to fucking piece of the pie, just say, I don't deserve more respect.

[00:39:24]

If he could just fucking admit it.

[00:39:26]

It's like the love of my life. I will get you the best deal. It's like, no, and you're going to get yourself the best fucking deal. I remember also Dave even told me that his friend was in a meeting that Peter came in to. And like the industry and the first fucking thing that Peter said apparently when he walked into the meeting was to this guy. He like shook his hand and he was like, do you know, call her daddy, my girlfriend, Sophia Franklin, like Wyatt fucking creeper.

[00:39:56]

What the fuck is that like?

[00:39:58]

Hi, I know I'm HBO, whatever. But also like, you know, color daddy, like flex on flex. I'm like, OK, do we get it? You get your fucking dick sucked, like, shut the fuck up. Sorry. OK, can you guys tell I love him? I always did. OK.

[00:40:14]

On a more serious note. Everyone keeps asking, why did we play a part of a cash song in the beginning of an episode? So during the time when we were getting all of the input and feedback that we were getting exploited, you girls are getting exploited, you're getting exploited. I kind of talked about it in my YouTube video. During that time, when Sophia and I thought we were going to leave, this was prior to us meeting with Dave, we were very emotional and we were not in the right headspace.

[00:40:52]

No, we were in a bad headspace and we made a poor choice. We made a poor decision to represent a frustration that we had completely lost perspective on. And I don't want to come on here and make an excuse for it, but I do apologize to all of you. I'm sorry, and I can only imagine that you guys took that probably the wrong way. So I really do apologize, guys. Have you guys been growing apart for a while?

[00:41:26]

It's hard for us listeners to understand how could you guys be so extremely close like sisters and then not be able to move past this? Yes, that's a really good question. Since day one, Sophia and I, of becoming friends. There were a lot of personal things that strained the relationship and made the business relationship difficult. We had very different relationships to our career. And when Stutman got involved socially, Sophia disappeared, she wouldn't really come out with me a lot because Peter I mean, from what she told me, Peter didn't feel comfortable with her going out without him.

[00:42:11]

And Sophia would rarely come out. If Lauren and I wanted to have a girls night, she would sometimes come. But then, like, she would leave from dinner and just go to his place and, like, not come out and hang out and party with us. And so, yeah, I think it ever since he got involved, it sucked because our relationship socially, we didn't really hang out.

[00:42:31]

And I had to go find like more friends and just kind of make my own way in New York because socially my friend wasn't there anymore. I know a few nights she was going to lie to him so that he didn't think that we were out. And like, I remember us being at the club and her, like, freaking out. He was going to find out. I'm like, who gives a fuck?

[00:42:51]

Take the vodka soda, let's rage.

[00:42:53]

So, yeah, Buchinsky because I mean, I think all of us can relate. You have a friend that gets a controlling boyfriend and then all of a sudden they're like and the backfire in it. And it definitely takes a toll on your relationship. OK, guys, quickly fuck Kanakis, all you motherfucking Kalki addicts out there, I see you, I see you. And I know you're wearing khakis, men, women across the world. Stop fucking wearing khakis, guys.

[00:43:20]

Stitch, fix. OK, we've talked about it before. People fucking love it. Stitch Fix is an online personal styling service that delivers your favorite clothing, shoes and accessories directly to you. So you basically get matched up with this personal stylist and you tell her like what your vibe is, what your what is your brand bitches like? How do you like to walk into a fucking bar? They pick you out a box and they send it to you and then you keep going back and forth until you love everything in your box.

[00:43:44]

There's no subscription required. Shipping exchanges and returns are free. And then the twenty dollars styling fee is automatically applied towards anything you keep in your box. So men, you don't know what to wear on your first day or out to the bars or you need a new little getup stitch fix women. Also, this is kind of like a perfect opportunity to like, switch things up, guys. So stitch fix get started at stitch fix dot com slash daddy and you're going to get an extra twenty five percent off again.

[00:44:13]

That is stitch fix dot com Baghdadi. All right. This is the last question and it's going to be the longest fucking answer. And this is going to wrap up this whole fucking episode. But I think this needs to be said. OK. Can you please elaborate on this partnership not being 50/50, Sophea says in her video? It was 50 50. You said it wasn't. Can you please elaborate? So I'm going to get into the weeds here.

[00:44:49]

Not actually, not even the weeds, I'm going to get into the roots of this because I think that it is the only way that I can fully answer this question dogging on this topic because of how fucking detailed it is. And I think it's important, even though it's about to be a little long. So you guys can, like, be in it with me and experience what the experience was in the beginning of call her Dowdy. Sophia had no experience in the industry, no experience with social media, etc.

[00:45:20]

And I want to be very clear. I don't blame her for this at all. But in the beginning, when it came to posting on social media, coming up with strategies, campaigns of how to get people to subscribe, how to get people to listen, how to get people to engage in our posts, I did a majority, if not all the work when it came to social media. And then I did the editing. And for the first few episodes I came with all the notes of an outline of the show, and Sophia showed up empty handed, but was a great fucking talent.

[00:45:49]

No denying that. So yes, she didn't know how to do a lot in the beginning. But two years later, when it came time to potentially start a new show and we thought we were gonna have to leave because Dave wasn't willing to negotiate and didn't want to give us our IP, Sophia kept saying how great it was going to be to go start a new show. Alex, we can do this. It's going to be great. We got this.

[00:46:11]

Oh, my gosh. We can do it. We can do what? We can do it. And Sofia knows this for a few months when we were considering leaving, Sofia and I had very heated conversations where I needed to get very real with her. I would tell her, Sofia, honestly, I'm really fucking concerned about leaving because you keep acting like this is going to be a walk in the park, like this is going to be so fucking great.

[00:46:40]

But it's concerning because you don't know a majority of the work that went in and goes into starting a brand, and I think you're being way too idealistic about this. And I feel like I'm having to be the realistic one because I lived it. I was essentially alone for the first year building those social media channels while she would be asleep while she was talking to a boyfriend, and for two years when you said you were going to learn, she always said, oh, I'm going to go take a social media course.

[00:47:13]

I'm going to try to figure it out. She never did. Multiple times I would confront Sophia asking her to pull more weight and she would say, OK, yeah, I'm going to I'm going to get more into it. And sometimes she would come through and she would like post a meme on the caller daddy Instagram. And then another month would go and she would fall off. And I remember a specific day her coming into the living room in our apartment.

[00:47:37]

And she sat down and she apologized saying, hey, I know a few months ago I said I would help more with social media. And I know I haven't done that.

[00:47:47]

And I'm sorry. And then, like, literally nothing changed after that conversation, nothing happened, like she apologized, but nothing happened. And I so I told Sophia, like, no shit, I don't really want to go start something new because I know what it takes and I have a feeling I'm going to have to build it again. And so why would we go do that if we can just keep it? If we can get call her daddy, if we can have one more conversation and Dave Portnoy offers us something, why would we go and start a new show?

[00:48:16]

And Sophia just didn't get that. Why would she? In the beginning, understood, but when two years goes on and you continue to let your partner do a majority of the work, a majority of all the social media, the editing of the show, and you go take your smoke breaks and you go call your mom and you go call Peter. It was hard for me because. Guys, it felt like not only was I doing a majority of the work.

[00:48:43]

I felt like I fucking cared more. We were we were constantly on Sofia's time and obviously on the Internet trying to present a united front, a partnership, but it's like when Sophia started dating Peter, she would go on vacations with Peter. So we would have to prerecord episodes totally fine. You know, like, OK, great, we can totally go on vacation. But Sophia would never offer to do extra because we were having to do more in one week because of her schedule.

[00:49:15]

We would have to double up on recording episodes. I would have to edit two episodes in one week. And I will never forget when she flew to Italy, it was either Italy or Bora Bora and she left for the airport and the episode wasn't even fucking finished. And I just didn't finish the episode by myself while she got on a plane with her boyfriend and left to go across the country. I'm not a fucking victim. I've never been a victim, but I think it's important for this to be said Daddy gang, because it's the facts and the comments about from Zofia saying it was always 50 50 and the back stabbing comments.

[00:49:53]

Here is my question. How do you backstab someone when you have been carrying them on your back? At the end of the day, working with a friend, extremely fucking difficult when you have such different work ethics for a while, you try to make things work, you try to make things because what else do you have? You don't have another fucking option.

[00:50:21]

So that is just me scratching the surface, guys, just when you are probably all like, OK, we are not even at the deepest point, it gets deeper. When it got worse is when Sophia came to me. It was at the end of our first year. And she said, Alex, I figured out how to make it 50 50. I'll take care of the business side of things. And what she meant by that was that Peter was going to take care of the business side of things.

[00:50:57]

She would copy and paste his text about business, about us going and starting how to start a new business, how to create an LLC and how to do a new company, etc. And she would copy and paste his texts and send it to me while we're sitting in the living room. I would read it and then I would ask her questions about it. And then she would be like, oh, hold on, let me ask Peter. So really, it still wasn't 50 50 because I essentially was getting into business now with Peter.

[00:51:26]

It was kind of like just have Peter send me those texts. Those aren't your original thoughts. I think it's really important to note that I right now I'm referring to our business relationship, but because our friendship was tied into work, it obviously affected our relationship. She was my best friend. But this, at the end of the day, affected was affected by our work relationship because our work relationship was so unhealthy and it flowed into our friendship. I think this is important just to make a grand comment to anyone listening that I don't know where you guys work or what you're doing, but I know there are a lot of young people that are getting into their careers.

[00:52:11]

And I think it's really important that hopefully this can help you. You need to be mindful of who you are getting into business with. And if it does not work for you, if you are doing something and it feels very unfair to you, you are not getting recognition for what you do. You need to readjust and you need to reevaluate your situation because it literally, I promise you will affect your mental health like it is the most draining, exhausting fucking experience, especially if you are in business with a friend.

[00:52:46]

In the last year of Sofia, this past year of meeting, Peter Sofia became so hyper focused on this one saying, and I was like, I will literally start screaming if I hear it one more fucking time. Sofia kept saying to me how the goal is. She wanted to make money in her sleep. I want to make money in my sleep. I want to make money in my sleep. I want to make money in my sleep. And I'm like, Sweetheart, you got to first work to make money in your sleep.

[00:53:13]

Like, we got to be realistic here, like, come on. And I think that just through things like this and through everything I've explained to you guys, it just became clear month after month. We wanted fucking different things with the daddy gang, with the brand, with call her daddy with our careers. And I am very aware. You can't blame someone for not wanting something as bad as you. You can't make someone see value in something the same way you do, nor should you have to.

[00:53:45]

When people keep asking on the Internet what happened, what happened? This is a huge part of the issue that I'm outlining right now. This changed things for me slowly, but it changed things and it weighed on me, and when we got close to losing call her daddy specifically, I needed to make a personal decision for my career and what I genuinely thought was best for the daddy gang and the call her daddy show. I feel like well, I don't feel like I know I've been living and breathing the show right now for two years, and I want someone to be a part of it that also feels the same.

[00:54:22]

The fans deserve it. You guys, I'm very aware you guys live and breathe for fucking Wednesdays. You guys wake up and you know what the fucking day of the week is because the show drops on Wednesday, like I do the same. I know that Monday and Tuesday are my biggest fucking days. I put in the hours. I record the show, put out the podcast, and I know millions of people are looking forward to it. Whether you guys are listening to laugh, to smile, to help you distract you from whatever the fuck is shitty going on in your life, whatever it is, I enjoy that responsibility.

[00:54:53]

Is it tough at times? Is it stressful?

[00:54:56]

Fuck yes. Fuck yes. Like, it's fucking hard.

[00:55:02]

But this is what I've always wanted, and I couldn't be more grateful that you guys have allowed me to have this platform. I think it fucking sucks because as this got bigger. In my opinion. I don't know if Sophia wanted this as badly as I did, I think when her boyfriend got involved, oh fuck, he wanted it. Peter Nelson fucking saw it. He fucking saw the value. He knew he wanted a goddamn piece of this pie.

[00:55:33]

So this past year, to me, it felt like it was me and Peter Nelson and it felt like my friend was checked out.

[00:55:44]

Almost every single time I would ask Sophia a question about call her daddy, she had to pick up her phone, pick up her laptop and call or text her boyfriend to ask him. Like picture how frustrating that was every single time, we rarely would be able to have a business conversation about our brand, the brand we were in together without asking Peter first. Hold on. Let me ask Peter. Let me ask Peter. I don't give a fuck about Peter Nelson.

[00:56:10]

I don't care what he has to say about call her daddy. Peter Nelson is not a talent in the industry. Peter Nelson does not have a public platform, everyone behind the scenes can say that they get it. You don't get it until your face is on the fucking Internet and you are the one exploiting your life. You don't get it. So when Peter Nelson became the person it felt like I was in business with and no longer my friend.

[00:56:39]

The game changed, obviously, Peter Nelson, to me, he didn't give a fuck about the data game, why would he? His job is literally in business and money. So. I'm so fucking thankful I was able to wake up and I could see that and I was able to separate my personal relationship with Sophia from the business side and the people she was allowing to influence the brand and making it all about money. I'm sorry I'm ranting, but it's this is the truth, and I think it's important to present this you guys in outline this for you guys, because none of this business shit that I'm talking about can take away from the fact that Sophia and I were friends.

[00:57:24]

We had a unique relationship. We were fucking hilarious together. We were we had some great times together. It was so fun at times, but for a very long time. I never knew if I would tell this full story and still there are some details being left out. But I wanted I hoped I would eventually get to tell the story because it weighed on me for so fucking long and the only fucking people in the world, really, that knew this whole time about this story day in and day out was my family.

[00:58:03]

My dad being in the industry is like, listen, you've got this, you grind through it, you do your fucking thing, you keep your head down and it's going to pay off. One day people will finally see the truth. You just got to be patient. And now I'm fucking sitting here on this podcast by myself. It's it is wild, it is. Unfortunate. Gang, holy shit. OK. Hello, it's me that was heated, that was a lot and I think that I feel ten pounds lighter.

[00:58:37]

I feel like I just took a little poo and we're ready to move on. I'm really, really, really looking forward to next week. I'm looking forward to this next year. I am looking forward to. Trying my goddamn hardest to making this the best show it possibly can be, and by doing that, I believe it is, including leading into the show next week, I'm going to have a really, really amazing guest on. Dave Portnoy.

[00:59:10]

Dave Portnoy want him to come on the show, I think it'll be a nice little cap off to this new season, this new era. And so I want you guys to send in any questions you want me to talk about with Dave. We're obviously going to talk a little bit about the situation, but I have some other questions I want to talk to Dave about. So make sure you tune in next week, guys. Also, if you want to be a part of the show, if you want to be on, call her daddy, go to our call her daddy, Instagram or Twitter or my personal Instagram or my Twitter.

[00:59:41]

I'm going to post the link of where you can submit your story to be on the show. I'm so excited to meet you guys and I think this is going to be fucking awesome. So Daddy going I think all that's left to say is I love you and I'll see you fuckers next Wednesday.
