They riff on Spotify dangling fake deals and shady 'agents' who lie about offers, then invent a bit where 'Call Her Daddy' is reimagined as 'Call Your Daddy,' a show where a woman confesses sexual details to her actual father until he can't take it anymore.
- Spotify never actually offered them money — the agent lies and says a deal might come through
- Streaming platforms make up fake companies and dangling offers to make podcasters think big deals are coming
- Tim describes the absurdity of being told about massive offers like $250 million that will never materialize
- Moving to Spotify exclusive meant Rogan couldn't be found anywhere else
- Tim describes the bit where her father picks up increasingly dejected as she continues calling episode after episode
