ABBA, MGK and Megan Fox Being Horny on Main, and Transphobia on TikTok (with guest Abbie Richards)

Did Mamma Mia 2 deserve an Oscar? Are Megan Fox and MGK cosplaying Bella and Edward from Twilight? And what is the correct pronunciation for Dua Lipa: Due Lipé or Dula Peep? These are some of the burning questions addressed in this week's episode of Don't Let This Flop, in which we discuss the resurgence of ABBA on TikTok, the iconically horny British GQ shoot, and a shocking new study on how TikTok's algorithm can potentially lead people to adopt transphobic views. Featuring study author and special guest Abbie Richards, aka @tofology on TikTok, as well as feverish obsession, guns, addiction, shamans, lots of blood, mayhem, tantric night terrors, and the kind of sex that would make Lucifer clutch his rosary. 


Don’t Let This Flop is a weekly podcast from Rolling Stone, centered around a roundup of this week in TikTok trends and memes, from dances to recipes to makeup challenges to creepy viral videos to celebrity videos to grassroots campaigns intended to raise awareness of social issues. Join hosts Brittany Spanos and EJ Dickson as they unpack their significance, with a special guests to break down the latest trends in TikTok. Some of these stories will be silly; some will be more serious. All will have wider implications outside the world of TikTok.
