On this week’s episode of 2Old4TikTok, Dena is joined by Melissa, Co-Founder of the pod, while Catalina settles down from her travels in Brazil. We start off with Nikki Blonsky Tiktok Cameos, featuring content from @theanwarali and @kylegfil_. And easily transition into Broadway TikTok with a video from @andrewpatino. The best part of TikTok is the comments, as displayed by trending content that asks viewers for responses like this one from @missfrizzyhead. Melissa’s FYP really said “For You” with videos about weird anxiety from @toricadogan and @kendotzee. We love @leahdaviscomedy’s take on Andy Cohen’s fan questions. Dena and Melissa discuss the latest Food Tok trends like Stuffed Tomatoes from @bigpapahannah, innocuous food podcasters @mdfoodieboyz, and the return of @emilymariko (but she never actually left). We end with our favorite Bethenny Frankel recapper @elaziee.    Check out all the videos we mention and more on our blog (2old4tiktok.com), Instagram (@2old4tiktokpod), and TikTok (@2old4tiktok_podcast).

On this week’s episode of 2Old4TikTok, Dena is joined by Ashley, friend of the pod, while Catalina wears adult diapers on her flight to Brazil. We start off with Traitors content (@morganevelyncook) because if you didn’t watch then what were you even doing? They talk about other themes from the week including Hozier’s yell (@rachelspicer_, @_coleslaw128) and always Chili’s (@calebsaysthings). We learn from Doechii, herself, about her song “Anxiety” as a follow-up to last week (@iamdoechii_). Dena’s FYP taught us what Dinosaur Time is (@sahmthingsup, @mamabearl_e) and we learned how much Bran Flakezz made in a year (@yourrichbff). And of course what FYP page would be complete without millennial content (@lizleatrice). Ashley’s FYP was serving Gaga while Gaga was serving reheated nachos (@monstershq). We then head to NYC for some boring influencer beef (@cedonifrancis, @opinionatedhag) before hearing about Ashley’s failed attempt at the viral cottage cheese bagels (@bethennyfrankel).   Check out all the videos we mention and more on our blog (2old4tiktok.com), Instagram (@2old4tiktokpod), and TikTok (@2old4tiktok_podcast).
