What is up Daddy Gang? It is your founding father, Alex Cooper, with Call Her Daddy.

Alex Warren, welcome to Call her Daddy.

Thank you.

You have had, I was going to say you've had the craziest year, but then I feel like it all started really in COVID for you.

Yeah. Your life has just been upwards since then. It was hype house to now music and you've

just blown up into this superstar and you have this fandom. Heck yeah. You're like, yes,

keep going, keep going. I sometimes get extra spread with my in and out too out too. You're so high maintenance. Thank you. Does it feel real? It does feel real now. For this last year, it's felt like a dream. And then I actually got a second to like look back at it. And it does feel like, I guess it's a little shocking, but I guess it feels real now. I don't want to be in Sutherland be like, oh. No, no, no, no. I get it. It's like you can only, you can only fathom as much as you can because you're also still living it and you're also still growing, obviously, as an artist and as a person, but it is really cool to see your success. I also realize I'm welcoming you back to L.A. Yes. Because you used to live here. Then you moved to Nashville. Yeah. What inspired that move? I technically live out. I live in Tennessee, not in Nashville. Okay. I don't like major cities anymore. You're done. I just, my wife, her dream was to have horses. And that was one of

the things where I, I'm from San Diego and I love surfing and everything. So I have a place here

that I surf and skateboard and get away after tours and stuff. But I wanted my wife to have that

farm life that she wanted. And it was also, it's also nice because I live so far away that no one

knows where I live. Okay, but to go from a San Diego surfing kid to being kind of in the middle of nowhere, what has been like the biggest culture shock for you? It's so funny. There isn't really a culture shock. San Diego, the only thing is you're not by an ocean. Like San Diego, especially everyone's nice. You walk around and everyone's greeting you greeting you when I lived here I went and introduced myself to the neighbors and they're like why the are you introducing yourself? They're like get away from yeah like everyone's you know this it's like these houses are next to each other and I love I grew up in like the coldestack vibe of everyone knew each other and set high on walks and I try to at everyone and when they're on walks and they just ignore me here.

That's actually such a good point.

I grew up on a cul-de-sac too.

And I thought that was norm. Then you get to L.A. And everyone's like, don't bring me cookies. Don't welcome me. Oh, my God. Like, fuck you. Right. my wife made a sourdough for like everyone in our cul-de-sac and it was crazy where like we left it

on our doorstep people in LA and wede-sac. And it was crazy where like we left it on our doorstep people in L.A. And we would go back to the next day. It was still there. And here, or in Nashville, they'll take it and they'll see it back. And then they'll make you another one. It's really cool. Are you leaning in? Like, are you wearing cowboy boots? I've worn boots for a little bit on tour. but that's more of like a I stole that from Benson Boone. Love that. He, I still don't look like him.

I'm still trying that part. But no, I, I, I, I've just been, uh, I've just fully embraced that I'm, I don't look like I belong there. And it's been nice. Well, I'm so happy for you guys, and I'm so happy for you.

You have new music.

You have an arena tour coming up.

You were recently nominated for your first Grammy.

Thanks.

What has been the most exciting of all of those?

Wow.
