"For me, the Call Her Daddy podcast is problematic, but that doesn’t stop me from listening to it every week. With Call Her Daddy, you truly never know what you are going to get — some of the content can be so bad that it’s good — and I can’t stop listening. The funny stories and unbelievably authentic personal anecdotes are beneficial for some college students looking for a laugh and trying to navigate the confusing world of sex and relationships."

Elana Klein - Curious - Jan 6, 2021
"In its essence, Call Her Daddy is what happens when a male-dominated company attempts to expand its audience to include women. The danger of Call Her Daddy lies in the fact that it champions a monolithic ideal of femininity that is compliant with patriarchal values, doing so under the guise of radical feminism."

"Call Her Daddy appears to be a harmless podcast about sex and relationships. It’s infuriatingly entertaining to indulge in Call Her Daddy, but every time we do, we help the podcast climb the charts. Even if we’re only listening to it ironically, we’re increasing the likelihood that someone younger and less experienced than us is falling prey to the show’s damaging rhetoric. "

"Call Her Daddy proves old stereotypes wrong: women aren’t just emotional relationship-seekers who prioritize cuddles, flowers, and chocolates. It’s possible for them to look at sex as something fun and casual, not just meaningful. At the end of the day, they do help to empower their massive fan base, breaking social norms that help women and men alike to live more confidently. "

"Cooper and Franklyn overgeneralize the dating world and normalize an abnormal pattern of treatment to a varied audience of listeners and subscribers."

"It is mindless entertainment at its finest. The hosts are like your most boy-crazy friend from high school who would fake their pregnancies to trap their boyfriends. Call Her Daddy taught me that millennials are changing their views on marriage, sex, love, and what it means to have a partner. Alex and Sofia make better partners than most married couples I know, and despite the annoying parts of their podcast, they are worth a listen—as long as you aren’t too squeamish. "
