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.

The city of New York is still riding the Knicks high with some incredible parade content from the now infamous twerker (@sophpassalaqua, @tmz). The Europeans are still taking over the USA and bringing us lots of great moments: from the Norwegians rowing chant on the NYC subway (@lilssob/) to the Scots in Miami (@fraserglen796). And let’s not forget Norwegian player Erling Haaland’s Birkin collection (@jack.savoie). Dena’s FYP takes a hard right into Jojo Siwa territory with content from her “cruise” (@benoftheweek) and of course there’s always time for Tyra Banks content - this time it’s her book (@lordes3rdalbum) and defunct theme park (question mark?) (@holdensmith962). And based on the “What’s your coffee order?” trend, Dena will be drinking pure sugar (@mrs.sarahann). Ashley is getting some intense workout content about a Corepower diehard (@rellimrolyat) and more Love Island from one of her favorite creators, @themarcosgonzalez. A creator spotlight is shone on @jacobjeffries who has been creating some incredibly catchy tunes (“wooly mammoth and a mastodon!”). And a Chipotle corn salsa hack in the food section is going to be a definite YES for Ashley but not Dena (@makeupmaddie). Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Dena is joined by Ashley, friend of the pod, for an episode filled with sports! Newly crowned NBA Champions, the New York Knicks, are first and foremost on their FYPs. With videos about Timothee Chalamet getting champagne (@espn), KAT showing his softer side (@geofftakes), OG’s stoicism (@nbaskitguy), Jalen Brunson winning MVP (@houseofhighlights), Josh Hart not getting the love in LA (@chau.ngo84), and Mikael Bridges being grandma’s favorite player (@chelsealynn1205), videos from the starting 5 are plentiful. Then it’s onto FIFA World Cup mayhem! And specifically how much our visitors are enjoying this country… they’re excited (@fox4newsdallasfortworth). The Scots are absolutely taking over Boston (@jaclyntess) - from Fenway (@cbssportsgolazo) to the cop slide (@mohzify). There are Swedes experiencing Waffle House for the first time (@sampev2), Koreans partying in Mexico (@jungnankang), and a German named Freddy who is getting the star U.S.A. treatment (@karlwarnerpxp). But a video by @mrsmessyquan reminds them that Americans don’t even realize we’re in the tournament, too. Dena’s FYP told her how to remember how to spell diarrhea (@shitterz.72) while Ashley was dropped off in Sam Smith’s mukbang TikTok (@sam.served). And of course, it’s Love Island season so there are plenty of memes and recaps like this one by Coach Jackie J (@jcubedhax).

Let’s go Knicks! This week, Dena is joined by Melissa, and they kick things off with the only thing more dramatic than TikTok: Knicks playoff basketball and the Tony Awards. From Broadway superfans to basketball fans suddenly discovering musical theater, they break down the crossover content taking over their FYPs. Featuring a video from @jbjams. Then it’s time for Pride Month TikTok, including a hilariously catchy “gay song” by Meg Stalter that’s been impossible to escape (content from @lisarinnaofficial and @carson_shofner). Dena shares a trio of bizarre stories making the rounds (@digtheplot), a horseback-riding video that sparked debate (@tiffanybutts1), and a McDonald’s discovery that has people talking (@alex_hummer).

 Podcast founder Melissa joins Dena this week since Catalina is still away. Similar to last week, this week’s guest host also airs her grievances with the pod as of late. Starting with audio trends, “Melissaaaa I’m drunk and outsiiiideeee” has been trending (examples from @stevenandluke and @sarahu192). Dena’s FYP includes a surprising lack of Eurovision content, Hyatt devaluation points breakdown (thanks to @carielizabethh), and a Trader Joe’s money opportunity from @erica_tara. Melissa’s FYP is full of “quick and easy” exercise transformation videos (i.e. @juliiaannne), Qigong tutorials, and jaw release videos (featuring a stitch with LeAnn Rimes from @lazor.lanson). NYC TikTok is all about who’s lining up for what, and this week it’s Mimi’s yogurt (video from @imjuhm). Dena and Melissa contemplate hacking their spouse’s algorithm like @lmcanty. And @valinthebay’s take on slow walkers ignites Melissa’s latest hot take.    Check out all the videos we mention and more on our blog (2old4tiktok.com), Instagram (@2old4tiktokpod), and TikTok (@2old4tiktok_podcast).  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
