No wonder she was racing to put together a big Hamptons blowout!

“Call Her Daddy” podcaster Alex Cooper has jumped from Spotify to SiriusXM in a reported $125 million deal.

Making a getaway with her is podcaster Alix Earle, among others, who are part of Cooper’s Unwell Network.

Cooper posted a video to TikTok drinking a cocktail on a plane, and saying she was headed to the Hamptons to celebrate her birthday — joking that, “I just signed a new podcast deal, so drinks are on me this weekend.”

Cooper’s new deal with SiriusXM will give the streaming platform exclusive advertising and distribution rights, plus exclusive content and events. 

SiriusXM would also get ad sales rights to Cooper’s Unwell brand, which encompasses the hot podcasts “Hot Mess with Alix Earle,” “Pretty Lonesome with Madeline Argy,” “Boyfriend Material with Harry Jowsey” and “In Your Dreams with Owen Thiele.”

“Call Her Daddy” was Spotify’s No. 2 podcast last year behind the massive “Joe Rogan Experience.” But even with the SiriusXM deal, Cooper’s show will still be available on Spotify, too, reports said.

Last week, we reported that Cooper is hatching an over-the-top, 30th birthday bash this month to be hosted by Unwell.

The host and her team sent out a proposal looking for brands to sponsor the multiday blowout in the Hamptons to be hosted by her nascent talent network, “Unwell.”

The event’s scheduled to included a pickleball tournament, a drone show and wine tasting — all to go down in weeks, sources said.

Cooper’s 30th birthday is Aug. 21, and the events are scheduled for this weekend, Aug. 23 and 24.

SiriusXM just threw its own Hamptons fête to debut its acquisition of another hit podcast, Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes and Will Arnett’s “SmartLess.”
