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 advised Alex and Sofia that in the event that they stayed with the corporate for another yr, he would give them Name Her Daddy’s IP — that means that they might 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. Talking to The Hollywood Reporter about their respective selections again in October, Alex recalled: “On [Sofia’s] aspect, she was like: ‘I feel we may 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 another yr, I did not give a shit in regards to the cash. I used to be like: ‘This IP is a gold mine. I’m going to be a multimillionaire and might be set for all times if I simply keep one yr,’” she went on. “I’ll by no means decide my ex co-host and former accomplice for making the choice she did, she actually noticed the lane of not desirous to work one other yr for Barstool, and I did not, and that’s enterprise.”
