The duo quickly realized that they have been “making pennies in comparison with what the present was making for Barstool,” and in 2020, they renegotiated their enterprise association.
Barstool’s proprietor, Dave Portnoy, finally informed Alex and Sofia that in the event that they stayed with the corporate for yet another yr, he would give them Name Her Daddy’s IP — which means that they’d personal the podcast’s model and present archive.
Sofia didn’t need to go forward with this deal, and ended up stepping away from the podcast whereas Alex caught it out. Chatting with The Hollywood Reporter about their respective selections again in October, Alex recalled: “On [Sofia’s] aspect, she was like: ‘I believe we might begin a present known as ‘Women within the Lavatory,’ or no matter, ‘and will probably be simply nearly as good.’ And I used to be like: ‘That could be true. However in my private opinion, I’m not giving up this IP. I don’t need to begin over.’”
“When [Dave] provided the IP together with not a lot cash for yet another yr, I did not give a shit concerning the cash. I used to be like: ‘This IP is a gold mine. I’m going to be a multimillionaire and shall be set for all times if I simply keep one yr,’” she went on. “I’ll by no means choose my ex co-host and former associate for making the choice she did, she actually noticed the lane of not eager to work one other yr for Barstool, and I did not, and that’s enterprise.”
