  "summary": "Alix Earle has publicly addressed her feud with Alex Cooper, host of the \"Call Her Daddy\" podcast, in the season finale of her new TV show \"Earle Meets World.\" Earle previously worked with Cooper, launching her podcast \"Hot Mess\" under Cooper's media network, Unwell, in 2023. However, Cooper's network later dropped Earle's podcast.\n\nAccording to Variety, Earle described Cooper's business approach as \"disgusting\" and accused her of prioritizing money over morals. Earle had initially wanted to exclude Cooper from her reality series but felt compelled to address the feud after Cooper publicly called her out on TikTok.\n\nTheWrap reports that Earle said she wanted to include the drama in her show to provide context, as her audience might have noticed her not addressing it. The feud began with passive-aggressive online interactions and escalated after Cooper publicly called out Earle, giving her permission to share her experience at Unwell. Earle's silence had sparked online speculation, even inspiring a \"Saturday Night Live\" spoof.",
