Dena and Catalina’s rundown of July trends begins with the ladies discussing the McDonald’s Grimace trend, followed by the news cycle surrounding the TikTok Boat Challenge and, on a more positive note, Rat Girl Summer (@umgabi). Our algorithms are algorithm-ing this month, with a series of videos inspired by Venice pickpocket spotter @cittadininondistratti2, from songs (@tjwells55, @itsjovynn) to parodies (@carbono___14). After Catalina shares some of her pickpocketing tales they move on to the Miley Cyrus Angels Like You radio trend before circling back to another algorithm favorite (perhaps a little late!): people reacting to videos of bottles breaking on the stairs like @chrisp.md and @ayame.p. Next they move on to the plethora of filters on the app recently, including the tropical location filter that @mous.kanon used in an NYC train station, the Barbie filter with hilarious results by @howdoidelete1 and @harkermcnair and the existential dread inducing aging filter. The featured creator of the week is @corporategossippod who, evidently, also has a podcast! For food and drink trends we have the next generation of mustard and cottage cheese videos by @100percentthattim and @wishbonekitchen, @pamelawurstvetrini’s Top Chef: Private Chef in the Hamptons series, and a review of the lemon popcorn that @leels_ raves about. Learning on TikTok this week is all about North Korean Propaganda, and the gals discuss content by @right_hand_arm_man. Finally, they close with a brief discussion of @chad.alexander’s rundown of the watches at Michael Rubin’s White Party in the Hamptons and @bryn.elise’s video about beauty tourism.

Catalina and Dena are back after a short hiatus! They start off the pod chatting about their respective summer travels before getting into the most recent trends on TikTok. This week the algorithm is showing all things submersibles, including videos by creators including @culturework, @jackmartin, and @baileybreving. Next, the girls highlight content creator @ilanawiles whose day in the life videos are an enviable glimpse into the world of Manhattan’s elite. Amy Poehler @amypoehler is a recent addition to the platform, and her first video inspires Dena and Catalina to try out the red flag filter. After debating the cottage cheese and mustard trend by @tiffanyymagee and sampled by @erin.monroe_, they discuss private airline company @thejetbusiness’s collaboration with @europeankid, which tricked Dena, and wrap up chatting about @kristalepore’s tales of serving celebrities at New York City’s most exclusive restaurants.

This week’s pod begins with Dena sharing her experience attending the Eras tour before the girls dive into trends and where the algorithm is leading them lately. First up, Catalina discusses the algorithm’s assumptions about her religion and her love of @briannaapple’s content. Dena shares what is being pushed to her on the finance and financially-minded side of TikTok including some very useful tips from @zacharyburrabel and of course Succession finale predictions (@nameberry.com) and recaps. For audio trends the ladies highlight videos by @madison.talley, @larissafonner18, and @lee.rid, who create hilarious then and now recaps of their siblings to the tune of a song from iCarly. During the content creator segment Catalina discusses @delaneysayshello and @riribibi_, being the person who won’t stop talking about how young she looks, and the definition of a manic pixie dream girl. After a brief chat about @snooki on TikTok they move on to food trends, including the Lemon Meringue Cheesecake from Costco (@ariannagdavis, @floridamomof3), a puffed pastry “hack,” and @babytamago’s summer pasta salads. Next up is learning on TikTok and this week the girls are diving head first into the world of etiquette, with @wtfwhatthefork discussing the proper way to eat shrimp cocktail (a very important subject for Catalina) and the internet queen of manners, @mykameier. Finally, they close the episode discussing the lunch table filter, recapping videos by @carlynicolee and @brettneyspears and reflecting on each other’s tablemates.
