Alex Cooper: Not Shutting Up

By: Kelley, Crystal

From a bullied kid making home videos in a suburban basement to the highest-paid female podcaster in the world. This is the story of Alex Cooper.

Before the $125 million SiriusXM deal, before the Spotify empire, before Vice President Kamala Harris sat across from her microphone, Alex Cooper was a Division I soccer player at Boston University carrying a secret that would take her nearly a decade to tell. Before she became the host of Call Her Daddy, the most listened-to podcast by women in the world, she was a girl from Newtown, Pennsylvania, who got her head slammed into the ground by bullies and decided that she would never, ever shut up about anything again.

Alex Cooper: Not Shutting Up traces the extraordinary rise of a woman who turned unfiltered conversations about sex and dating into a media empire worth hundreds of millions of dollars. From the raucous early days at Barstool Sports to the explosive breakup with co-host Sofia Franklyn, from the record-breaking Spotify deal to the founding of the Unwell Network, from the controversial Kamala Harris interview to the Hulu documentary that exposed years of alleged harassment by her college soccer coach, Crystal Kelley delivers a vivid, balanced, and deeply entertaining account of one of the most fascinating figures in modern media.

This is not a puff piece. It is the story of a woman who is capable of extraordinary generosity and cutting ruthlessness in the same breath, who built her brand on radical honesty while being strategic about what she reveals, who champions women's voices while facing questions about the culture inside her own company. The contradictions are not a flaw. They are the engine.

For fans of the Daddy Gang, for anyone who has followed the drama, and for readers who want to understand how a podcast about blowjobs became a platform powerful enough to host a presidential candidate, Alex Cooper: Not Shutting Up is the definitive account of a career that is still, at thirty-one, just getting started.
