Alex Cooper and Matt Kaplan found Unwell in August 2023 to build shows for Gen Z audiences around Call Her Daddy, hosting new podcasters, a creative agency and the Unwell Winter Games series. In August 2024 SiriusXM signs a three year deal reported at 125 million dollars that moves Call Her Daddy from Spotify and gives SiriusXM ad sales for the network. In August 2026 Patrick Whitesell's WTSL invests an undisclosed sum at a 500 million dollar valuation; Cooper says seventy million women a month reach Unwell content.
