  • On her show Wednesday, Gaines attacked a viral clip from Cooper's 5 April podcast urging women to kiss or sleep with dates on the first night.
  • She said the message was hedonistic rather than empowering, warning it would bring heartbreak, regret, guilt, shame and broken families, and urging women to reject Cooper's advice.
