Alex Cooper, host of the top-charting podcast Call Her Daddy, has signed with CAA. The representation agreement covers Cooper, her husband Matt Kaplan, and their company Unwell, which produces the podcast, live events, and film and television projects.
Cooper left UTA in August. CAA's involvement comes after Silver Lake-backed firm WTSL, led by Patrick Whitesell, invested in Unwell and valued the company at $500 million.
Unwell's podcast slate includes Pretty Lonesome, hosted by Madeline Argy. The company's film and television projects include Hulu's Call Her Alex documentary, The Hannah Montana 20th Anniversary Special, and Netflix's Let's Marry Harry. In development are Netflix's adaptation of Hannah Grace's novel Icebreak, a feature film adaptation of Ali Hazelwood's Deep End produced with Shawn Levy's 21 Laps, and Hulu's You Deserve To Know, a drama series starring Nina Dobrev and Paul Wesley.
Unwell has also launched original competition series Unwell Winter Games and Unwell Summer Games on YouTube. In 2026, the company launched Unwell Agency, an in-house advertising and creative agency with partnerships including Google and Sephora.
