Join Alex in the studio for a special solo episode where she opens up about her experience trying for a baby and why she ultimately decided now just wasn’t the right time.
Chapter 1: What updates does Alex share about her life?
What is up, Daddy Gang? It is your founding father, Alex Cooper, with Call Her Daddy. Hello everyone, welcome back to another episode of Call Her Daddy. Daddy gang, I have been wanting to give you an update on my life and not just like a, oh, this is what I did last weekend kind of update, but in a more serious way. I feel like...
I haven't really sat down and talked to you guys about what's actually going on in my life. And while it's obviously so exciting that Call Her Daddy has been having a huge year with insane interviews and big guests, At the end of the day, the show was built on you and me feeling personally connected. So I am very excited to hang out with you today.
This past April, Matt and I celebrated our one-year wedding anniversary. Very exciting. We went to Hawaii with Henry and Bruce, obviously. And it was so relaxing and romantic and... Matt and I were sitting together reflecting on our first year of marriage, how amazing it was, all of the life decisions that we made together.
We talked about all the things that we had overcome, the things that we accomplished. And as we're discussing all this, I couldn't help but think to myself, you guys don't really know about any of this in my life. And
That feels weird to say because I recognize I started this show talking so openly in extreme, explicit detail about my dating life and really all aspects of my life, but specifically me shitting on the men that I was hooking up with, detailing the sex positions that we were doing the night before, all of the good stuff. And I recognize that that has shifted over the past few years.

Chapter 2: Why did Alex pull back on sharing her personal life?
So today I want to explain why I pulled back. And then in the spirit of reconnecting, I want to give you one of my most personal life updates that I have to offer right now. I have been an open book with you guys. And obviously, that started to shift when I met my husband.
And I kind of want to walk you through the evolution, the thought process, and conversations that Matt and I had along the way in deciding how much I was going to publicly share about us and our relationship. So let's go back to the first time I podcasted about Matthew. I was working at Barstool at the time, fucking throwback. And I had asked them it was in the pandemic.
I had asked them to send me to L.A. once restrictions kind of opened up a little bit more so that I could go and interview some guests for Call Her Daddy. If you all remember, that was the trip where I got Miley Cyrus on the show and it fucking changed everything. And at the time, I was extremely single. I was talking to a few guys on my roster.
And the first night of my LA trip, I had a work slash dinner date scheduled with Matt. I had never met him in person. We had one Zoom meeting together prior, and he invited me to go get sushi with him when I got to LA. When I landed in LA, I remember I immediately set up my podcast equipment and I just did what I would always do.
I just started to talk about a date that I was about to go on with this sexy guy that I met on Zoom and I decided to call him Mr. Sexy Zoom Man and that is what he should be referred to by all of the women around the world. And I held nothing back. I talked about how I thought he was so hot And I obviously searched his IMDB and I looked up every fucking possible interview known to man.

Chapter 3: What was Alex's first date with Matt like?
His entire digital footprint, I had memorized. He barely had an Instagram. I found it. And I did all the top tier recon. You know what I mean? All the recon that I have taught you guys to do before you interact with the male species. And I remember I paused the podcast and I said, I will be back with updates. It's... It's time to go on the date.
And to anyone who's new here and has become maybe daddy gang in the interview era of Call Her Daddy, this was a very normal occurrence. No man was safe. No detail was left untold. If you were interacting with me in my life, you were getting talked about on the podcast.
And so I will never forget, Matt pulled up to pick me up at my hotel and immediately when I got in the car, I thought he was hot and I could tell I was going to get some great podcasting content from the night. And when we sat down at dinner, I was extremely upfront with him about this. I told him I had already banked 30 minutes of pre-date content.
And so whatever happened on the date, you know, obviously it's going to make it into the second half of the episode. He's like, you're insane. And I do remember like Matt definitely expressed that he would love if I didn't do that, but
But overall, his vibe was chill about the situation and it more became kind of like a joke of the night than something like serious that was deterring him from like having a good time. And Matt and I always say to this day, it was hands down the best first date we could have asked for. The date ended up being like three plus hours. We had really emotionally stimulating conversations.
And I think overall, we both were just really surprised at how much we liked each other after one date. So I got back to my hotel room and obviously I immediately podcasted about it. Every detail. But the debrief, to be fair, was like pretty fucking tame for my standards. I kept it PG. I'm pretty sure I just detailed like our make out behind the restaurant. Nothing that crazy.
And so the episode about Matt Kaplan went live 48 hours after the date. And Shortly after, I got a call from Matt himself. I remember in my hotel room, I pick it up. I'm all like giddy. I'm like, oh, he's calling. What does he want? And I remember he's like on the golf course outside and he's laughing because someone clearly had sent him the episode and he told me,
that he hadn't listened to it yet, okay? And he demanded that he hear from my lips what I said about him. And I obviously just gave him the top line. I did leave out, I'm pretty sure, the throbbing of my vagina when I looked at him and all those little, just little, little details that he didn't need to know. But overall, gave him the top line. We kept it fucking moving.
And he, again, kind of thought it was... funny and endearing and he was chill about it. It's not like he loved it, but the episode was harmless enough that he wasn't going to get mad at me. And so after that, we ended up hanging out almost every single night for two weeks straight when I was in LA. And when I got back to New York, there was this excitement that I had, but also this feeling of

Chapter 4: How did Alex and Matt's relationship evolve?
So we kind of decided to keep talking and just keep it somewhat casual. And so all of this was smooth sailing until I decided that I was going to ramp it up 10 notches. And the daddy gang in my heart, I just knew they were due for a graphic detailing of my sex life, obviously. We needed another Gluck Gluck 3000 moment, okay? We needed a banger. So obviously insert the sloppy toppy delight, okay?
You guys, I will never forget that episode. And hopefully you don't. Here's the thing. Before I met Matt, I had good sex. I had a lot of good sex. But this man changed the course of my life and changed everything for me, okay? And so I felt obligated as a woman who had previously claimed that she, you know, didn't enjoy getting eaten out.
I needed to tell you guys what this man had done to my vagina. And so I remember in the episode, I detailed graphically. Actually, wait, hold on. You know what we need to do? We need to pull up the fucking episode description because you guys... Oh my God. Okay, this is the description. This week is a solo episode with your father.
Alex is detailing her sexcapades with Mr. Sexy Zoom Man featuring... Her cum in his beard, his pussy eating skills. Oh, my God. Her sex with him and a battle between him and another man that made her realize how she feels about him. Oh, my God. I forgot that was about this musician that I was talking to at the same time as Matt. Wait, I'm not OK. His fucking beard. There's so much to unpack here.
But let me just fucking say. That episode did numbers, OK? Sloppy Toppy Delight. Genius. You guys fucking love that one. Anyways, for context, I remember my headspace of when I went to upload this episode. Like back in the day, I had this obsession with really pushing everything to the limit.
And what I mean by this is like Matt was getting on a plane to come visit me the day that that episode dropped. Matt was... in the air flying cross country to my ass. And I boop, pressed upload. Boop, knew he couldn't download it. Boop, let the world fucking listen to his pussy fucking eating skills. He's flying from Los Angeles to New York at this point to take me to the Hamptons for my birthday.
And I thought it would be a good time to just bing, let the world in on a little bit of our detailed sex. And so I remember Matt landed. And this time he didn't just call me. I got a FaceTime from him as he is in the car driving to my apartment. And I remember answering and he goes, he just opens the FaceTime and he goes, Alex, what did you do? I'm like, oh my God, babe, I can't wait to see you.
Like, I know where we're going to go to dinner tonight. We're all good. What are you talking about? He's like, Alex, I just got a call from my dad. No. Steve. Steve. That's like the real fucking kicker. I can handle Matt being like, me and Matt, we can go all day. Your dad is calling you.
Matt's father was aware that his beloved son was flying across the country to see a girl who lived in New York. So naturally, he decided to do a little Google search of his own to find out what I was all about, right? Steve's just trying to catch a vibe. And when he realized that I had a show...

Chapter 5: What challenges did Alex face in sharing her relationship on the podcast?
Does that make it sound like the dad? No, no, not made me come. Steve's son made me come on his beard. Regardless, Steve, I forever apologize for this one. However, you're a real one because we do laugh about this to this day. We actually recently talked about this at this past Thanksgiving. Steve was having a hoot and a half. Yeah, it is funny now, but it wasn't that funny back then.
Overall, I just remember we hung up the FaceTime and what ended up actually coming from that was Matt and I had to have a serious talk. This may have slightly pushed Matt over the edge. And it was because he started to get calls and texts from family, friends, employees, work colleagues, the random fucking high school friend that he hadn't talked to in 10 years.
Everyone was starting to kind of put it together that Matt was the sexy Zoom man, the call her daddy girl was talking about every week now. And I could tell Matt was uncomfortable and a little overwhelmed by all of this. He is such a private person.
And when Matt and I now talk about that time back in our lives, he always laughs and is like, I just had no idea how serious you and I were going to become. So, of course, I was like trying to protect myself and I was hesitant to have someone talk so seriously.
explicitly about me in a way that could probably impact my life and i'm always like totally fair babe totally fair thank god it worked out but totally fair like i get it that's he wasn't in control i had like all the keys and i was driving and he was just hoping i didn't fucking go too far each week but so that though i will say was the first time in my life of having call her daddy
that I was torn about next week's podcast. It was the first time that I ever thought about sparing a man's feelings because I actually cared about him. And trust me, I hated myself too at that point. I was like, no, you cannot care about him. Like, fuck this. Like, exploit your life. Exploit him. Keep it fucking moving. But that just wasn't the truth. I did care.
And so I will say the situation kind of forced us to have more honest and real conversations than we probably typically would have had at that point and seeing each other. And we really had to talk honestly and openly about whether we could fit into each other's lives. The reality was I was a very, very, very public person and he was beyond private. How the fuck is that going to work?
I think what was confusing was the compatibility like immediately off the bat was their compatibility. The intimacy was there. Everything felt right. But this aspect was going to take compromising from both of us. Obviously, you guys know how this story ends. It, thank God, worked out. And Matt and I, over that next year, we found a rhythm that worked for us.
And looking back, without a doubt, I think my biggest fear at the time had been that I genuinely believed that I wouldn't find a man who would let me just be me and support me and support my career because it is a lot to take on. And, you know, I think for Matt, I feel like Matt's biggest fear, honestly, was he was just like, I just don't want you to ruin my life. Please don't take me down.

Chapter 6: How does Alex balance her public persona with her private life?
Once he and I basically knew, like, oh, we're in this, he made it clear that he trusted me implicitly and he expressed to me that –
I'm now all in like I'm down for whatever I trust you I trust what you're gonna share on call her daddy will be like fine for our relationship and I love you and like do your thing I love you which was nice because I don't again I don't think I could have been with someone that like put guardrails up for me and something I don't want to get misconstrued when I'm saying all this daddy gang is like
You all did absolutely nothing to make me feel like I didn't want to share about my life or I needed to hide things. Like, that is not what this is about at all. You guys have been the most fucking supportive people in my life, truly. And I think it really was just a natural evolution within myself and what my relationship needed to build into what it is today. I...
Also think something I've learned from spending more time in this crazy fucking industry is that when you start doing things for content and public views, it really starts to blur the line of what is real and what is fake. Because when you are sharing your relationship, inevitably, you're going to want to present the best possible way. And you guys see it all the time.
Like someone breaks up and everyone's like, what? They broke up? We've only seen them kiss and hug and be in love. And it's like, of course, like no one's posting the fighting video online. And I just think when you're doing that, you're constantly deciding how you want to be perceived. by the world. And I know no one wants to hear this, but this is so fucking common in Hollywood.
Like, a lot of the decisions people are making in Hollywood are heavily influenced by public opinion and image and branding and personal gain. And so... That was also something that Matt and I personally recognized neither of us had interest in falling into that trap together.
I didn't want to make decisions and do things that I wouldn't naturally do with Matt just for likes and views and attention. Like I quite literally know couples who spend their entire Saturday night filming content or they go to certain events so that they are photographed together. And so the Internet gives them the stamp of approval of like couple goals.
I also sadly know couples who attend events or just go out to be seen in public so that they are seen together and they're able to confirm to the public like, yay, we're happy. Look, we're not breaking up. All is good in our life. It's just not something we were interested in doing at all. And obviously, those are the extreme examples. But like you're still kind of trying to appease the public.
And so you're making decisions about your relationship for the public. And by not leaning into any of that, it was the best decision we as a couple ever made in the beginning to just keep it as private as we could.
