Written by djfrosty on January 28, 2025
Alex Cooper is expanding her broadcasting duties even further in 2025, with SiriusXM announcing new exclusive programming as part of a multi-year agreement with the world’s most-listened-to female podcaster.
Beginning on Feb. 11, Cooper – the host and executive producer of the Call Her Daddy podcast – will give SiriusXM subscribers the chance to get closer to her and the Unwell Network with two new channels and live shows.
The first of these, Unwell Music, is curated by Cooper and is presented as a mixtape featuring the songs that have scored her life. Broadcasting contemporary hits alongside nostalgic pop anthems, Unwell Music will feature names such as Miley Cyrus, Tate McRae, Sabrina Carpenter, Beyoncé, Gracie Abrams and more. Alongside its eclectic playlist, the music will also be complemented by personal commentary from Cooper and behind-the-scenes stories.
The second of these channels, Unwell On Air, is designed to deliver a “live and curated pulse on what’s trending now”. In addition to highlights from the Unwell Network’s podcasts, it will also feature live daily programming that puts their Daddy Gang fanbase as the center of the conversation.

This live programming includes Dialled In, which sees hosts Rachel Friedman and Montaine taking calls from listeners about relationship problems, friendship drama, and more. Dialled In airs from Monday to Friday at 7pm ET (4pm PT).
The programming also features The Daily Dirty, which sees hosts Sequoia Holmes, Fiona Shea and Hannah Kosh providing an hour-long catch-up focusing on pop culture-focused sharp takes, candid conversations, and playful segments. The Daily Dirty airs from Monday to Friday at 6pm ET (3pm PT).
“I’m constantly trying to find new ways to interact with my audience and with Unwell Music and Unwell On Air I’m able to deliver brand new daily live shows and playlists curated specifically by me,” said Cooper in a statement. “I can’t wait for everyone to experience a whole new world of Unwell.”
“Alex Cooper and her Unwell brand continue to be at the vanguard of pop culture with their authentic and unfiltered approach,” said Scott Greenstein, President, and Chief Content Officer at SiriusXM. “With the launch of Unwell Music and Unwell On Air, Alex is creating something that is only possible through the power of SiriusXM: a live 24/7 audio destination for her fans to immerse themselves further into her world. We can’t wait for you to hear what she has in store.”
Cooper first rose to fame with the Call Her Daddy in 2018, which was swiftly acquired by Barstool Sports shortly after its launch. In 2021, Spotify took ownership thanks to a $60M deal before it found a new home with SiriusXM in August 2024. The multi-year agreement provides SiriusXM with exclusive advertising and distribution rights, content, events, and more for both the Call Her Daddy podcast and the other titles on the Unwell Network – the production house Cooper founded in 2023.
