David Cooper (host)

It's wild.

Are you at peace with having like an extremely generic name?

There's something about like safety in the crowd, you know, of having this name.

I could do anything.

And then it's like, well, David Cooper did this awful thing.

Probably it's going to be on the thousandth result of Google.

You know, whereas if my name was super unique and I got arrested, I'd be on the front page if someone typed in my name.

What do you find when you Google your name?

books from rabbi david cooper with my signatures as a gift there's another radio host although in the uk i believe they call them presenters and his name is david cooper i'm going to try to have him on the show but he hosts a show called gaydio breakfast which i think is like a gay themed pop culture show love it he seems like a cool guy he's a little different than me that's my radio counterpart you have someone who's basically like the opposite of you yeah that must not be great have you ever been mistaken for this anti-psychiatry dave

Why did your parents name you David?

I was either going to be Peter or David.

My family had a vote, but my dad chose David.

He felt Peter didn't sound Jewish enough.

I don't even know what that means, but you know, that was, I also have a cousin named David Cooper.

Who's

like my same age, maybe a year younger.

Have you ever met, other than me, another David Cooper?

You're their son.

Whiplash back to Sirius.

If there's anything you want people to know about, I don't know, like therapists and technology that can help them get through the day.
