Want to know what folks are talking about on social media? Every weekday on 97.9 The Hill’s “This Morning with Aaron Keck,” Victor Lewis scours the Internet for the day’s top trending stories, from weird news to wacky crimes to odd business ventures and everything in between. Click here to listen back to all our past What’s Trending segments – and tune in to “This Morning” on 97.9 The Hill every weekday at 7:45 to hear What’s Trending live on the air.
Trending today: a study of romance novels that finds a sharp decline in the number of studly shirtless beefcake hunks on the front covers, thus proving conclusively that this country truly is going to hell in a handbasket. Speaking of things in decline, Victor and Aaron also talk about Twitter (or X or whatever) – and its new policy of “throttling” links to websites that Elon Musk considers to be rivals. (Will Elon go down in history as a hero, if he inadvertently manages to kill Twitter forever?)
Today’s Trends segment may also include the first recorded use of the word “twinks” in WCHL history. (But probably not the last!)
