Any place I can read the drama?

No real drama.
They wanted to make a car channel but LTT couldn’t finance it due to the recent allegations and resulting revenue loss, were allowed to try it themselves but due to an employee no-compete clause it caused issues and they were given the option of either stopping or getting fired with a huge severance package and stuff. It was essentially a silly legalese way for LTT to pay them to go be solo youtubers chasing their dreams.
As they say themselves, getting fired was a positive thing.
