Dena and Catalina open the episode with a heated discussion of the Paris bed bug epidemic before moving on to their algorithms. For Catalina it’s trivia by @mahanlankarani and a Spanish duet by @aleah_parris. For Dena, NYC wasn’t the only thing that was flooded this week. Her algorithm is all things water emergency: from @femiredwood’s discussion of waterways, to the brief Sea Lion escape from the Central Park Zoo, warnings about puddles (@underthedesknews) and parodies set to Destiny’s Child (@warrenkolewifey) and Lady Gaga (@troyserena). The girls also discuss the sociology of ice cream orders, prompted by @hanaenotmontana’s reflections on the subject. Next up is STITCHES, with@umgabiasking about mispronounced words and an amazing response from @blacademics. Dena discusses the content creator of the week @lukeandsassyscott and shares her excitement for the upcoming Beyoncé concert film. The ladies confirm that Jay-Z is still not on TikTok and move on to a very old food trend, the Cheesecake Factory Chicken Salad, started by @thezoyaroya and sampled by creators like @alixtraeger, @callmebelly, and @cory_larrabee. Learning on TikTok includes another new app feature, described by @linnayeahhh, and they close the episode with a video about a non-alcoholic martini by @_tvb11.
