What's Trending with Victor Lewis (This Morning with Aaron Keck)

Trending today: reports that Hershey’s is hoping to generate an extra $50 million in annual revenue – by encouraging people to eat more s’mores. (Aaron’s not surprised: he’s not a big fan of Hershey’s chocolate unless it’s coming in s’more form.) Also: Victor plugs graham crackers, and Aaron hoards airplane cookies.

Trending today: buffets are on the decline in Las Vegas, but on the rise pretty much everywhere else. (Aaron’s got theories: Vegas buffets filled a low-budget niche that isn’t really what Vegas tourists are into anymore, while non-Vegas buffets would likely be rebounding after the COVID crash – especially now that inflation’s a thing and people might be looking to stretch their food dollars as much as possible.) Also: Victor disses Golden Corral, Aaron remembers his favorite Vegas buffet experiences, and Victor searches in vain for a frozen-pizza factory to tour.

Trending today: an extremely low-level art heist involving the infamous ‘banana duct taped to a wall’ piece. Aaron and Victor discuss modern art and modern media; Victor shares his personal conspiracy theory; and Aaron has a brilliant idea for how to maximize the dada-ness of it all.

The post What’s Trending: The Peel Gallery? appeared first on Chapelboro.com.

Trending today: Victor’s attempt to discuss Splenda’s takeover of Equal runs aground against Aaron’s penchant for carrying his favorite sweetener around with him. (It’s Equal, by the way, so he’s genuinely concerned about this development.) Also: Victor and Aaron discuss their favorite wallet styles, Aaron provides a definitive ranking of the best and worst artificial sweeteners, Victor lists obscure fake-sugar brands, and Rage Against the Machine suddenly enters the chat.

Trending today: Michael Koh (filling in for Victor) is lamenting the end of the World Cup, but Aaron distracts him with minutiae about silly media circuses from the mid-90s. (Also, Cabo Verde gets a spike in tourism after their World Cup success. That’ll teach ’em to be good at football!)

Trending today, or rather not trending: the new live-action Moana movie, which is on track to lose about 100 million dollars after a less-than-stellar release. (Though Aaron’s not sure about the math: the movie cost about $250 million to make and experts say it would have to make $600 million to break even. Where does the extra $350 million come from?!) Also, Aaron and Michael Koh (filling in for Victor) try and fail to recast Maui, and Michael laments the fact that everyone is afraid of change.

Trending today: a sponsorship deal between the Big 12 and Monster Energy, giving Monster Energy naming rights to the Big 12’s football and basketball schedules. Aaron and Michael Koh (filling in for Victor) speculate on what that’s going to mean for other conferences like the ACC: what gaudy sponsor patches are going to show up on UNC jerseys in the coming years? (Also, Aaron and Michael complain about generic corporate names for sports stadiums, with one notable exception: Aaron’s got a soft spot for Detroit’s Comerica Park, for one very good reason.)

Today, Aaron wants to revisit an earlier Trends segment about the definition of “camp”: he might be ready to agree with Victor that proper camp can’t be done on purpose – if it’s done on purpose, we should call it ‘drag’ instead – but does that mean king-of-camp John Waters is best described as a director of drag instead of camp? Inquiring minds want to know.

Trending today: a survey showing Europeans are more positive about the European Union now that the United Kingdom has left. (Is that because they saw what happened to Britain after leaving – or because they just don’t like Britain and they’re happier with a Britain-free EU? Maybe a little of both.)

Trending today: health experts and some countries are pursuing an “endgame” on tobacco use, trying to eliminate it altogether. Victor and Aaron discuss their own thoughts on what the laws around tobacco ought to be – taking it as a given both that people ought to be able to make their own choices, and also that tobacco use is unhealthy and you really shouldn’t be doing it in the first place.
