September 2023: MLM and Army Wife Scandals, BeeTok and more!
September is in full swing and TikTok is as busy as ever. Dena and Catalina open discussing the concerts they recently attended, including a recap video by friend of the pod @ashleyrosayy of the Death Cab For Cutie and Postal Service reunion – Catalina’s personal eras tour, and Dena’s experience at the Aerosmith concert. Dena also has an important update. Lots to chat about in terms of algorithms this week. Catalina starts off with a story about a bride overcharging her bridesmaids for dresses featured by @aitapod before diving into Army wife drama and @jesstheprequeldoesmiami’s reaction video. Dena also shares her side of TikTok this week including @thelexisout claiming to be the Delta Airlines pooper and MLM reaction videos like the masterful work of @canadiankels2.0 and @mallorysthoughts. A recent audio/filter trend is set to an Ashanti song with creators like @crazyauntchronicles, @idk.its.jess and @olanprenatt_is.sexy joining in. Next up, they highlight featured content creator of the week @Boobieklapper before moving on to the latest celebrity drama covered on the platform by @bekahdayyy. The food and drink section is as unhinged as usual, with Dena mostly featuring videos about Portugal (@theatrewithselena, @kris10peterson) and a debate about reselling pastries from Costco. To wrap up, Catalina discusses what she learned about bees thanks to @mr.mrs.beerescue and the ladies chat about how often they think about the Roman Empire (@theyaresam_).
