Sofia Franklyn Calls Out Alex Cooper & Matt Kaplan for Trying to "Discredit" Memoir Allegations
- Sofia Franklyn's memoir, Daddy Issues, hits shelves Tuesday, November 10, as she revealed on The Bossticks podcast that subjects are working to discredit her account of the Call Her Daddy split.
- Dating back to 2020, the rift began when cohosts sought to renegotiate their contract with Barstool Sports; Alex Cooper secretly negotiated a separate deal with founder Dave Portnoy, returning as sole host.
- Behind-the-Scenes revelations include Muji Fricke's role creating bits like the "Gluck Gluck 3000" joke; Franklyn also recounts Matt Kaplan allegedly screaming during a phone call when she announced the book.
- Cooper's Unwell Network faces management scrutiny as influencer Alix Earle, who departed in 2025, previously accused Cooper of being "manipulative and toxic," claiming she learned of her exit through the press.
- Franklyn believes the audience is "smarter now" and aware of PR narratives, making it harder for critics to discredit her perspective as she tells her side of the story.
