[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have SiriusXM radio in all of our cars. There's this new station curated by 31yo podcaster Alex Cooper, who I've heard of but never listened to. It's a low number pop music channel (#3), so you can't help but scroll past it. We left it on on a road trip to the beach, as it's basically just road trip pop songs, and she chimes in randomly between songs. So she is a painfully unfunny and obnoxious former college soccer player and just forces in celeb name-dropping and serial vulgarity (fu**, sh**, di**) into mindless vocal fry babble. She encourages listeners to tune into her second SiriusXM station to hear her long-form podcasts and interviews. From what I gather, she got famous being a vulgar unapologetic slut detailing her escapades in graphic detail with a sidekick, then she cut out the sidekick so she could keep all $60 million from Spotify. Then SiriusXM just paid her $125 million dollars. How is in the world is such "content" in any way worth this much money? ‘Call Her Daddy’ Host Alex Cooper Inks Multiyear Deal With SiriusXM Worth up to $125 Million for Exclusive Content https://variety.com/2024/digital/news/alex-cooper-deal-siriusxm-call-her-daddy-exclusive-content-1236112140/[/quote] I've seen the headlines about Alex's success and deals, but have never listened. I was surprised this week to see excerpts from her interview with Charlize Theron, by all accounts an A-list actor, who was extremely candid/vulnerable about her personal life/relationships in her interview with Alex. I don't believe Charlize would ever share such detailed info with an MSM outlet. I have read that podcasts offer an intimacy that other mediums don't, and it seems like Alex has really tapped into/leveraged that. Personally, I enjoy the intimacy of some podcasts (99% invisible, StoryCorps) but others make me uncomfortable (Armchair Expert, Call Her Daddy). Might be generational. [/quote] I thought Charlize Theron, a 50-year-old washed up A-list actress old enough to be a grandmother, detailing one night stands and vibrator use was sad and gross for all involved. That’s not* feminism or empowering, it’s low.[/quote] not* feminism or empowering, it’s low and degrading[/quote]
