We spend the first few minutes of the podcast discussing our B’nai Mitzvahs and the fact that everyone everywhere had the same one.

Proven true by this Bar Mitzvah dance TikTok video:

TikTok Song Trends – October 2020

Song trends move so fast on TikTok, it’s hard to keep up. But here’s a roundup of some of the latest hits.

“Potential Breakup Song” by Aly & AJ went viral from this video of a mom’s weekend by Mia Gillespiee (@miagillespiee).

“Dreams” by Fleetwood Mac became a TikTok anthem after Nathan Apodaca (@420doggface208) took a selfie video riding on a skateboard drinking cranberry juice.

@mickfleetwood

@420doggface208 had it right. Dreams and Cranberry just hits different. #Dreams #CranberryDreams #FleetwoodMac

♬ Dreams (2004 Remaster) – Fleetwood Mac

“Where is the Love” by Black Eyed Peas is suddenly back in rotation after TikTokers post videos of themselves faux running away or hopping to certain situations.
