Justin Bartels (@peach_club) joins 2 Old 4 TikTok this week!

Chit Chat

Dena and Melissa start the show talking about Perez Hilton’s TikTok ban and his plea to the D’Amelio family.

Interview: Justin Bartels of @peach_club

At 11:40, we begin our interview with Justin Bartels of @peach_club.

We first hear how he got onto the app as the typical millennial during quarantine, but he soon realized the potential of creating a niche fitness account and growing a following.

He tells us how the name Peach Club came about, the importance of strengthening the glutes, and how his background in marketing helps to shape his content. Justin explains how he’s built an engaged community, with the help of the book Superfans by Pat Flynn.

Justin and Dena discuss Elite TikTok, Fit Tok, and the misinformation out there about health and fitness.

Melissa talks to Justin about his experience with improv comedy.
