Sodapoppin has weighed in on the ongoing chatter around Nmplol’s divorce from Malena Tudi, saying he got genuinely angry reading what he believes were false claims spreading online while the legal process was still active.
The Twitch veteran addressed the discourse during a recent stream, recalling how frustrated he felt watching narratives build around his longtime friend Nick Polom. Soda didn’t itemize every claim he took issue with, but his frustration lined up with the wave of speculation that has followed the couple’s split for months.

His comments arrived shortly after Nmplol released his own video walking through the divorce and the financial settlement.
In that video, Nick claimed he offered Malena a 50/50 split of everything early in the process, including cash, stocks, and assets. According to his account, Malena pushed for a 60/40 division in her favor along with attorney fees and monthly support.
Nick said the court ultimately landed on a 50/50 division, which he framed as a vindication of the offer he made from the start. He also pointed to the divorce being filed under Texas’s no-fault “insupportability” standard, pushing back on cheating rumors that had circulated. Legal fees on both sides reportedly ran into the hundreds of thousands.
A messy split for a very public couple
Nick and Malena built years of content around their relationship, from cooking streams to IRL travel to group shows in the Austin scene. When the relationship ended, the audience that watched it grow felt entitled to a verdict.
Soda’s frustration reflects that pressure. As Nick’s closest friend in streaming for over a decade, he’s watched the public form opinions on a private legal fight using fragments of information.
