The End Of An Era: Alex Cooper Is Leaving Spotify After Allegedly Signing A MASSIVE $125 Million Deal With SiriusXm

Source - Alex Cooper, host of the popular “Call Her Daddy” podcast, reached a multiyear agreement with SiriusXM that encompasses exclusive programming from her company expected to begin rolling out in 2025.

With the pact, SiriusXM will replace Spotify as Cooper’s distribution and advertising partner. SiriusXM will have exclusive rights for advertising, distribution, content, events and more for Cooper’s flagship “Call Her Daddy” podcast, as well as the lineup of shows from her Unwell Audio Network.

Condragulations to the founding father. Well deserved. Just six short years ago she was gluck-glucking into the microphone of a small, rundown studio at HQ1 and now she's on top of the world. $60 MILLION richer with a lot more on the way. Here's what she had to say on the situation...

“I am beyond excited to work with SiriusXM,” Cooper said in a statement. “The Daddy Gang will always be my top priority, and with SiriusXM we will continue to find new ways to evolve and provide my listeners the best experience. The Daddy Gang wants more, so we’re getting ready to give them more… I can’t wait for this new chapter to begin.”

There's still some speculation on exactly how much the deal is for, but the number currently being floated around by Variety is $125 million... 

The deal between Cooper and SiriusXM is worth as much as $125 million over the course of the deal, which runs a little more than three years, a source familiar with the pact told Variety.

Sirius also just paid $150 million for Conan Conan O'brien and $100 million for SmartLess so that seems accurate. Also, both KFC and merch girl Ali upstairs said it's $100,000,000+ so I'm going to choose to believe them…

I just hope that she doesn't forget her roots. More specifically that fact that we used to share a desk and were briefly reunited for an electric 5 minute segment on Barstool radio last fall. Here we are in action…

It's called chemistry, folks. Look it up. In all seriousness I couldn't be happier for AC. Hard work pays off. Oh and thoughts and prayers to Sofia with an F, the Brian Dunkleman of podcasting. I'm sure today's not easy.
