AceShowbiz - Sofia Franklyn sat down with Adam Friedland for an exclusive interview on The Adam Friedland Show, where she opened up about her explosive fallout with former Call Her Daddy co-host Alex Cooper and the betrayal at the center of her new memoir, Daddy Issues, which was released on Tuesday, November 10.

During the candid conversation, Franklyn did not hold back. "I don't think NDAs are enforceable," she told Friedland, hinting at the legal complexities surrounding her split from Cooper and the hit podcast they once co-hosted.

Friedland, who admitted he was skeptical of the memoir, nearly broke down in tears reading Franklyn's account of how Cooper allegedly betrayed her and took control of Call Her Daddy. "I'm learning about close female friendship from this book," he said. "It's insane. They hate each other. They're at war with each other. They want to destroy one another."

Franklyn pushed back with a more measured take: "Women have complex friendships." But Friedland fired back, "Complex? You're just not friends with each other." The exchange set the tone for an interview that balanced humor with raw emotion.

The conversation also touched on the origins of their fallout. Franklyn claimed that during negotiations with Barstool and David Portnoy, Cooper went behind her back. "The biggest misconception is that he offered the IP and that wasn't good enough — that's not true," she said. "I say, 'I'm down to stay at Barstool, but I don't want to roll over on all the points.' We had a lot of leverage. Somewhere in that, Alex went behind my back."

She also reflected on how they used their sexuality to build their brand. "[Alex Cooper and I] used our sexuality to get our shit," Franklyn said. "We had a lot of fun doing that! She framed it as 'business is business.' Then she framed it as girlboss." But Franklyn argues that Call Her Daddy "died the second I wasn't there."

At one point, Friedland asked Franklyn if she and Cooper ever had a lesbian romance. "This whole thing feels romantic. … Did you guys ever hook up?" he asked. "Never," she replied.

The host also asked why more people didn't stick up for her during the public fallout. "It was a convincing narrative and campaign they did," Franklyn said. "But the audience is smarter now."

Franklyn also addressed the Alix Earle and Alex Cooper fight, teasing Friedland: "That was really embarrassing; you asked me about [the Alix Earle/Alex Cooper fight]—you're a massive fan!" The moment added a lighter note to the otherwise heavy conversation.
