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: Victor and Aaron explore Wolfsburg, Germany, a factory town of 100,000 where everybody works for Volkswagen. Everyone takes their vacations at the same time, because the VW plant shuts down for three weeks every year and the entire town turns into a massive festival – which sounds great, until you realize that means nobody ever really gets to travel…
Also, Victor and Aaron discuss the merits of preserving the name “Carrboro” – as a finger in the eye of the town’s racist namesake, who would totally totally hate what his name is now associated with.
