From February to May 2024, Tatum and co-host Aleiagh hosted Brainrot on WECB: Emerson College’s student-run radio station. Every week during spring semester, they curated a playlist based on an idea, concept, or piece of media they couldn’t stop thinking about – or, something they effectively had ‘brainrot’ from. Brainrot explores the intersections between pop culture, music, and obsession as Tatum and Aleiagh deep-dive into the ‘why?’ of the things they love.
