PODCAST PALS TURNED ENEMIES: THE 'CALL HER DADDY' BLOWUP THAT SHOCKED EVERYONE
The friendship implosion between Alex Cooper and Sofia Franklyn was SO messy, it made it into Dave Portnoy's memoir!
Talk about friendship drama that echoes through the ages! The falling-out between podcast queens Alex Cooper and Sofia Franklyn on their hit show "Call Her Daddy" was apparently THE scandal nobody saw coming — so much so that Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy decided it deserved a whole mention in his June 2026 memoir, "Cancel Me If You Can." According to Us Weekly, Portnoy wrote that "the revelation of Alex and Sofia's torpedoed friendship was almost more than the public could handle." Yikes!
While the exact details of what went down between these two media personalities remain the stuff of podcast legend, one thing's for sure: their split was HUGE enough to make Portnoy's must-read list. When a beef is big enough for a founder's memoir? You know it left a mark on the industry!
