“You wrote about internal strife earlier. There was no scandal as such. Ksenia just felt that a number of people who were involved in podcasts needed to be fired. Their work was not economically justified. And she fired me. Naturally, someone was unhappy. And others took their place, just that same Arian. I’ll tell you in order. From departure.
If you believe the media, and Sobchak left for Lithuania, then this is a mystery to me. Ksenia has nothing in common with this country, and it’s difficult to get there now. The only thing I know is that the emergency departure was carried out by very serious and influential people. Perhaps they organized Lithuania for her too. I know from Ksenia that she started having problems. Last night she told me not to tell any of the guys that she had left. Today we were supposed to record a special issue on YouTube, essentially a regular digest. The highlight of the video is stories about mobilization. A studio was organized, people were ready, but in the morning, when Ksenia was already far away, they told the employees that the recording was cancelled. And all the news people were left at home today. Those who work on YouTube always work remotely.
According to my information, there have been no searches in Sobchak’s office yet. She especially tried not to shine a spotlight on the editors. The headquarters is located in Petrovsky Lane next to the Russian Military Historical Society and the Theater of Nations. There I saw this Aryan for the first time. It was this summer. We were sitting in the kitchen and suddenly an incomprehensible but mannered young man came in. After he left, Ksenia told me that he offered her a project. To its credit, Sobchak was interested in the idea. The idea was to create a podcast show on glossy topics on YouTube. This is both video and audio, like live radio. As far as I know, Arian was supposed to be the host and “pull” guests into the studio: celebrities, fashion industry figures, brand representatives. They seemed to have already agreed on the concept, were at the stage of discussing shares (Arian wanted to have a percentage, and Ksenia offered him a fixed salary), and about attracting sponsors. On behalf of Ksenia, Kirill Sukhanov has already “finished off” the project. Maybe they just attracted the wrong partners.”
