Hi,
Daddy Gang. So there is no new Call Her Daddy episode this week
because I just officially released my documentary Call Her Alex on Hulu.
I cannot believe I'm finally getting to say that.
I'm feeling extremely proud and emotional, but if I'm being honest,
I also feel nervous and scared most people obviously know me as the host of call her daddy right but I realize in releasing this new documentary the world is going to learn about the one thing I've never really talked about before which is the years of traumatic sexual harassment I endured from my college soccer coach.
It took me a decade to tell this story.
And I'll be honest, even saying the words to you right now,
I was sexually harassed by my college soccer coach.
I still feel uneasy and uncomfortable and anxious with all of it.
There is no right way to talk about it and open up about this.
But if I...
have learned anything from call her daddy there is such power in conversation so why now you may be asking over two years ago I went on my first live podcast tour and I thought it would be fun to just have a documentary crew follow the journey So I could share some of the chaotic behind the scenes moments along the way for anyone that couldn't come and enjoy.
But the entire direction of the film changed after my opening tour stop in Boston.
I had told the director that I wasn't sure I wanted to get into what happened to me in college in this documentary.
I figured, let's keep it light.
Let's keep it fun.
Let's just approach it with a more positive.
energy and she was obviously extremely supportive and understanding but she did encourage me
while we were in Boston go back to BU visit campus for the first time
