What’s It About?
CALL HER DADDY brings in celebrity guests to get candid with host Alex Cooper on topics like growing up, managing fame, sexual experiences, drinking, overcoming abuse or addiction, handling friendship conflicts, and much more. Some episodes feature just Cooper, as she takes listeners on the journey of planning her wedding, gives advice, or just shares life updates. As a Spotify exclusive, the audience can watch the interviews while they happen, but only on the Spotify app or YouTube. Cooper brings in big names like Offset, Bella Poarch, Janelle Monáe, and more. No topic is off limits from the latest celebrity drama in pop culture and more explicit sexual topics. Although the content is definitely geared toward adults, older teens are sure to find many episodes relatable as well.
Is It Any Good?
Star-studded guests and thoughtful questions make Alex Cooper's podcast fun and interesting. Call Her Daddy is known for giving celebrities a chance to be real and connect with listeners in new ways, diving into candid and mature topics that are relatable for many. While it's not a podcast for the whole family, it could spark important conversations about serious issues like abuse, addiction, and relationships between older teens and their parents. Cooper often takes the time to mention causes she cares about such as women's rights.
As a Spotify Exclusive, the show may not be accessible to everyone, but there are short clips of each episode on YouTube. Because it's produced by Spotify, the production quality is top notch, with a fun intro song and colorful set design for those watching while they listen. Some discussions may feel out of touch as celebrities discuss their personal experiences that aren't always relatable and sometimes miss the mark. Cooper is very empathetic towards her guests and listens to what they have to say while also being respectful of their opinions.
