Dena is joined by Ashley, friend of the pod, for an episode talking about summer TikTok trends. They start strong with VictorTok (@viktor..pr) and it’s all about the comments (@joyfullysober). Then the two must discuss their experience viewing The Odyssey (70MM, not IMAX). From incredible press sound bites (@mtvuk) to a retelling using internet memes (@renatoassiderato) to Penelope but make her Meredith Marx (@alice__polo), this movie is the gift that keeps on giving. Dena’s FYP has a little bit of everything… how much does a can of Spam cost from your local Target (@christheproducer21)? We learn some excellent tips & tricks for navigating Canal Street (@melindagale) and yes, it’s still thriving. TRIGGER WARNING: We learn about whose family is a vomit family or a diarrhea family (or maybe a fart-forward family?) (@mickycashflow). And an excellent Chili’s restaurant bop from @julesbqueen101 - sorry about your Justin Bieber shirt. Ashley is building her running playlist with songs featured in the videos from @babka21wekk. And she’s getting Dena on board with the movie Wicker (@itsthespotlight). And speaking of running, there’s a new Running Mode on Spotify (thanks @mads.and.reilly.run)!
