If you read the names Brooke Schofield and Matt Rife and think to yourself, “Who?” then this article isn’t for you. (To be fair, it’s not even for me since I also had no idea who these two were prior to the story, but we gotta keep up with the kids here).
If you want to be in the know, here’s a quick primer: Matt Rife is a comedian who recently had his own Netflix special that drew a lot of criticism due to his “joke” about domestic violence and his insistence on gearing the show towards macho men since he was getting made fun of for having a very large female fanbase. (God, masculinity is fragile.) Brooke Schofield is a YouTuber who apparently dated Rife… along with six other women.
Get it? Got it? Good.
Brooke Schofield created a WhatsApp group for all of Matt Rife’s other girlfriends.
She’s previously discussed an anonymous partner she referred to as “Mr. DC” on her podcast, “Cancelled with Tana Mongeau,” but she’s finally revealed that she’s actually talking about Matt Rife.
In addition to accusing him of love-bombing her when they were together, she also revealed that he certainly wasn’t dating her exclusively. Still, she liked him a lot but noticed some serious red flags.
“I wouldn’t say he was my ex or anything because it wasn’t like this serious relationship, but it wasn’t just hooking up with him — I really liked him,” she admitted.
“He was the one initiating the conversations that were like: ‘I haven’t felt this way about anybody in so long’ and just like… I mean, to anyone with common sense, it’s love bombing but I had, at that point, lost all of my marbles.”
Eventually, she ended things, saying that Rife was cool about it and “hit all the points.”
Schofield came across a TikTok video from a woman claiming to have dated Rife.
It wasn’t the fact that he’d had other women in his life that shocked Schofield. It’s that the timeline this apparently happened wasn’t quite adding up.
Soon, she realized there were a number of women all dating him simultaneously, and she got all the women together in a WhatsApp group to compare notes.
“There were timelines, there were Venn diagrams, we were comparing notes,” Schofield said. “I’m telling you, Tana, for a man who doesn’t have time, this man had the most time.”

Brooke Schofield is glad to be rid of Matt Rife.
In addition to finding out he was a bit of a womanizer, she was also horrified when he appeared on the “Stiff Socks” podcast and talked badly about women’s bodies.
“I don’t want to look down and feel like God left the tag on you,” he said of a lady’s intimate parts. His comments left Schofield (and many other women) “repulsed” by Rife.
Still, I have a feeling he won’t have any trouble finding women to love bomb in the future.
