   From The Ground Up

   🏋️♂️ Bro, but make it vertical. Tiffany is on tour again, which means Jieun is back on her solo adventures and this time she’s digging into micro-vertical dramas on Instagram and TikTok. This week, we’re talking 'From the Ground Up', a tiny but surprisingly heartfelt vertical created by Lukas Silva and Andrew Campen. And when I say tiny, I mean this is a true micro-vertical: short, character-driven, and built around something we don't see nearly enough of: the bromance. (Male loneliness epidemic where?) Lukas Silva stars as Jackson while Andrew Campen plays Philip, aka “Gym Bro,” and the entire story asks a surprisingly simple question: What happens when your girlfriend leaves you at your lowest, but your bro stays and helps you rebuild your life...from the ground up? Jackson suffers an injury after being pushed into the water, loses his girlfriend, and finds himself struggling with a body that no longer works the way it used to. Enter his best bud bro, who talks him through his panic attack, admits that he's experienced them himself, and then basically says, “Okay, in gains we trust.” And somehow, it works. We talk about the friendship at the heart of this story, male vulnerability, why vertical dramas could do SO much more with friendship-centered stories, and why sometimes you don't need a billionaire, a mafia boss, a dragon, or five Alpha Kings to make a story work. Sometimes you just need a good bro. Then we take a little field trip to Backstage to see what the vertical world is casting right now, desperately hunting for Christmas verticals. And because this is a solo episode, there is, of course, a little Tea Time. Is it good tea? Debatable. Is it mostly Janelle Evans and her internet swamp people drama? Unfortunately, yes. So if you have 15 minutes to kill, why not spend them watching a tiny bromance instead of doomscrolling? And if you know of other vertical dramas living outside the usual 50+ apps, SEND THEM TO US. 🎙️ Talk Drama To Me drops every Wednesday wherever you listen to podcasts. Follow us on TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and Substack for the clips, thirst traps, and theories.

   Brace Face Betty

   Brace yourself. 🦷⛓️😬 This week we are going back to the deep, dark recesses of the internet: ‘Brace Face Betty’. This is not just another vertical drama for us. This is the vertical drama that started it all. Before the K-dramas, before the C-dramas, before we knew what we were doing, Jieun found these Eastern European uncanny Americana productions and something about them completely rewired her brain. So naturally, we had to bring Tiffany into the darkness. Set in an aggressively American high school, ‘Brace Face Betty’ has it all: an evil stepsister, a hot-headed basketball captain, and a heroine whose biggest crime seems to be… having braces. Poor Brace Face Betty. So naturally she gets bullied, humiliated, shoved into the boys’ locker room, and forced to work with basketball boy on a school project that somehow turns into a lot of touching, whispering, neck massages, and absolutely no explanation for when this man suddenly became interested in her. There’s a stolen project presentation, blackmail via vlogs, a bathroom meltdown, and a glow-up that transforms Brace Face Betty into Bombshell Betty. As their connection deepens, she must navigate hidden agendas and unexpected feelings while discovering her own strength. If you’re ready to take my hand and descend into the deep dark places of the internet with us… welcome to ‘Brace Face Betty’. 💅🏀 🎙️ Talk Drama To Me drops every Wednesday wherever you listen to podcasts.

   One Night in Vegas

   🎧 Moonlighting as sound engineers now. See, this is what you get when you party in Poland! Between a night out, Polish Cheetos, McDonald’s, pierogies, and unchecked recording conditions, there are a few audio gremlins in this one. Consider it part of the international TDTM experience. It's a feature, not a bug. This week, we’re talking 'One Night in Vegas', starring Jackson Tiller and Faith Orta, and honestly, Jackson may have found his vertical drama niche. Hot, tatted up yearning older brother's friend who talks very closely in your face? Don't mind if we do. If he looks familiar, you might remember him as the CEO in 'Country Girl', and apparently he’s been popping up in plenty of mafia verticals too. He’s also building his own production company getting that mogul money. Faith Orta caught Tiffany’s attention immediately and then we discovered yet another one we now need to watch: 'Ranch King’s Forbidden Sweetheart'. You’re welcome. As for 'One Night in Vegas', the maid of honor and best man are sworn enemies, they get drunk in Vegas, wake up married, and discover that a million-dollar inheritance is riding on her relationship status. So obviously they have to figure out how to undo the whole thing while simultaneously discovering that maybe they’ve been in love with each other this entire time. Except… have they? Because we have QUESTIONS about that lifelong love story. We get drunken Vegas romance, a missing marriage veil, family drama, an Elvis impersonator who looks suspiciously like Howard Stern, and two love confessions. Double the fun. Plus, we recorded this one while traveling so expect plenty of food discourse, TikTok ambitions, terrible pronunciations, and so on. 🎙️ Talk Drama To Me drops every Wednesday wherever you stream podcasts.
