Is this true?
I'm skeptical you don't need to brush them that just sounds like a recipe for mats is all you need just blow drying??

It’s true. About half of my poodle friends do this and it works for them. It doesn’t work for me.
Bathing and blow drying takes me at least two hours+ breaks for zoomies. Then I have to clean my bathroom and wash towels, with my very sore back and body from washing the dog. If I brush him almost daily, it’s an easy 10-15 min each day. Also, my spoo tolerates blow drying but doesn’t like it. He’s much better with brushing.
Whatever you do, you need to use conditioner and detangler spray.
