I don't think the Matt & Blonde breakup has anything to do with Tenet media or the Russians.

Beyond the fact that Matt's 144k/yr magic windfall for doing the exact same content he was already doing for YT shekels went boom.

So his sudden paycut from the glowies made him turn his guns towards his lazy female cohost to try to claw 10% of the revenue that she probably didn't deserve in the first place.

Then she said "I'm out", and he acted like a beta boyfriend bitching about it for 4 hours on stream for superchat bucks.
