Controversy has surrounded Matt Kaplan, the husband of popular podcast host Alex Cooper, after a recent report alleged that he frequently yells at staff members working on their production company, Unwell Network.<\/p>\n
The bombshell report, published by Bloomberg on Monday, claims that there is constant conflict between Kaplan and staff members, with some employees reportedly threatening to walk out in the middle of film sets and live tours.<\/p>\n
Matt Kaplan is a 42-year-old producer who has worked in the entertainment industry for over a decade. He started his career at CBS after graduating from college, working his way up from an intern to a senior role. In 2017, Kaplan founded Ace Entertainment, a production company that has worked on various projects, including documentaries and live tours.<\/p>\n
As the co-CEO of Trending Media, Kaplan is responsible for the day-to-day operations of Unwell Network, while Cooper focuses on her popular podcast, \u2018Call Her Daddy.\u2019<\/p>\n
According to the Bloomberg report, Kaplan has allegedly earned a reputation for frequently yelling at staff members, causing tension and stress in the workplace. One witness claimed that Kaplan berated the staff on Cooper\u2019s new show, \u2018Unwell Winter Games,\u2019 and threatened to prevent them from working in Hollywood if they messed up.<\/p>\n
This behavior has allegedly led to formal complaints being filed by crew members, who have threatened to quit if Kaplan doesn\u2019t change his behavior. A production manager reportedly broke down in tears during a live tour in 2025, and Kaplan blamed the grueling work schedule for the incident. However, a source told the outlet that the manager\u2019s breakdown was actually a consequence of Kaplan yelling and swearing at staff.<\/p>\n
In a Marie Claire interview in 2025, Cooper stated that her door is always open and that she wishes to create a positive and safe environment for her young staff as a CEO. However, the alleged behavior of her husband has raised concerns about the work environment at Unwell Network.<\/p>\n
Cooper and Kaplan\u2019s representatives did not immediately respond to Page Six\u2019s request for comment on the allegations.<\/p>\n
The allegations against Kaplan have sparked concerns about the treatment of staff members in the entertainment industry. The incident highlights the importance of maintaining a positive and respectful work environment, especially in high-pressure industries like entertainment.<\/p>\n
As the entertainment industry continues to evolve, it\u2019s essential to prioritize the well-being and safety of staff members. The alleged behavior of Matt Kaplan serves as a reminder of the importance of creating a positive and inclusive work environment.<\/p>\n
