Alex Cooper Defends Kamala Harris Podcast

Alex Cooper, host of the 'Call Her Daddy' podcast, defended her decision to interview Vice President Kamala Harris just weeks before the 2024 election, acknowledging the backlash she anticipated from her audience. Despite her usual avoidance of political guests, Cooper felt a responsibility to discuss women's issues, particularly in light of the ongoing threats to reproductive rights, stating it was a 'no-brainer' to feature Harris. The Harris campaign reportedly spent over six figures to create a set for the interview, which ultimately garnered significantly fewer views compared to Donald Trump's recent appearance on Joe Rogan's podcast. Cooper admitted her audience is divided and expressed indifference to criticism, emphasizing her commitment to her listeners and the importance of the discussion. She mentioned that while some fans were upset, she believed the positive impact of the episode outweighed the negative feedback. Ultimately, Cooper remains resolute in her choice, stating that the backlash has not deterred her listeners.
