Summary
Alex Cooper is (apparently) the most-listened-to female podcaster in the world. She has a $125 million deal, media empire, hydration drink, reality show premiering this week, and a brand name that belongs to someone else. Today on Fluently Forward we're going deep on all of it - the Sofia Franklyn situation and why "Suitman" was actually right, the Matt Kaplan hypocrisy that nobody is talking about loudly enough, the MowPod download scandal that I have personal receipts on, the Alix Earle fallout and what I've heard from people in the know, and what Unwell Winter Games tells us about where this empire is really headed.
