TikTok Algorithm “Secrets,” Trends, Filters, Food Tok and More!
Listen now
Description
Dena and Melissa start the show discussing the Wall Street Journal article about TikTok’s “secretive” algorithm. We feature videos from @professorcasey and @tomlumperson. Trends this week include asking, “Who will ruin the family vacation?” with an example from Jim Gaffigan (@jimgaffigan). There’s a trend where parents prank their kids pretending to touch a dog’s butthole. We talk about the Blue and Red Filter, featuring a video from @reen_machine. Musical TikTok is back with a huge orchestra behind this cat drinking milk, featuring a video from @violingrl. A choir sings Backstreet Boys from @itspoppymoon. Rollercoaster shenanigans ensue on TikTok. This food account from @thehealchef has delicious audio. Hilary Duff (@hilaryduff) joined TikTok and is basically Lizzie MacGuire all grown up. Zooey Deschanel (@zooeydeschanel) also joined and used New Girl audio to introduce herself. Creator spotlight this week shines on @heymiadotco, a UX researcher who teaches us about user experience on the things we use everyday. Check out all these videos and more on our blog (2old4tiktok.com), Instagram (@2old4tiktokpod), and TikTok (@2old4tiktok_podcast).
