Persistence, scarce retail space and the fundamentals behind the right deal.This Retail Retold replay brings us back to a conversation with Kevin Nassimi, Vice President of Real Estate at Nassimi Realty, about a question that still matters: Does America actually have enough physical retail space?For years, the industry talked about the U.S. being over-stored. Chris Ressa and Kevin challenged that assumption, looking at the forces already reshaping retail supply, from intense demand for pad sites and limited big-box availability to former retail space being converted to multifamily, industrial, and self-storage.It's a conversation worth revisiting because the fundamentals behind it go beyond one market cycle.Kevin shares what he was seeing across Nassimi Realty's portfolio, including significant demand for freestanding pad sites and fewer available big-box spaces. Chris digs into why. Former 100,000-square-foot boxes have increasingly been divided among multiple tenants, expanding the pool of potential users while reducing the amount of true large-format space available.They also discuss how limited new construction and the repurposing of obsolete retail have further constrained supply. As former retail properties are converted to multifamily, industrial, self-storage, and other uses, that square footage leaves the retail market altogether.But the conversation isn't only about supply and demand. Kevin shares the story behind bringing Burlington to a former Kmart space in Clifton, New Jersey, after reaching out close to 100 times over four years. The deal is a reminder that persistence matters, but so does knowing your asset, understanding the trade area, and recognizing when the right tenant belongs at the right property.From changing store formats and limited supply to retailer demand and the fundamentals of dealmaking, this replay takes another look at a question retail real estate is still navigating: How much physical retail space do we actually need?What You'll HearWhy demand for retail pad sites has become so intenseHow big-box availability reached levels Kevin hasn't seen in his careerWhy splitting former Kmart-sized boxes is changing retail supplyHow conversions to multifamily, industrial, and self-storage are removing retail space from the marketWhy high construction costs are making new retail supply even harder to deliverWhat nearly 100 calls over four years taught Kevin about persistence in leasingWhy knowing the asset and trade area matters more than accepting a retailer's first “no”How a major wave of store closures could temporarily disrupt today's fast leasing environmentWhy retailer optimism remains high despite broader economic uncertaintyChapters0:00 — Meet Kevin NassimiKevin shares his role at Nassimi Realty and the family-owned company's approach to suburban shopping centers.4:53 — Clear the AirA difficult residential conversion, construction blind spots, and Kevin's surprisingly generous philosophy on broker commissions.9:12 — 100 calls later: the Burlington dealKevin explains why he kept pursuing Burlington for years—and what finally changed.12:27 — Persistence only works if you know the real estateChris breaks down the fundamentals behind the Clifton deal, from trade-area knowledge to tenant critical mass.15:27 — What's happening in retail right now?Kevin shares what he's seeing across markets after reconnecting with retailers and brokers at ICSC.15:59 — Why pad sites are kingDemand for freestanding buildings and drive-thru opportunities is creating fierce competition for limited space.18:50 — Where did all the big boxes go?Chris and Kevin examine why large-format availability has tightened and how former boxes are being divided among multiple tenants.22:09 — Retail supply is disappearingConversions to industrial, multifamily, and self-storage are taking former retail square footage permanently out of the market.22:35 — Is America under-stored?Chris challenges the old assumption that the U.S. has too much physical retail.23:00 — Smaller boxes, more tenants, less riskWhy breaking up former Kmart-sized spaces has expanded the tenant pool and diversified landlord exposure.25:39 — The impact of the next major store closureChris and Kevin discuss why a large bankruptcy or closure wave could slow leasing activity far beyond the affected properties.27:07 — Retailer optimism is still highDespite economic uncertainty, Chris says the confidence among physical retailers at ICSC was hard to miss.27:51 — RadioShack, Bloomingdale's and a serious salt toothKevin closes with the retailers he misses, how he shops, and the Target aisle

For some, loud noises and bright lights can turn a shopping trip into a saga. But a recent win for a Dunedin autistic advocate means his local Kmart now has low sensory shopping hours every Wednesday. Instead of speeches and fanfare, yesterday's first quiet hours were marked with dimmer lights and reduced noise. Tess Brunton reports.

Remember the blue-light specials at Kmart? In this episode of the Rick's Rambles Podcast, we take a trip down memory lane, talk about how social media can be used for good, explore the story behind one of John Denver's most memorable songs, and wrap things up with some fun and unusual special days coming up this week. First up, it's Fun Facts: Kmart! We'll look back at the history of Kmart, its impact on American shopping, those famous blue-light specials, and why so many of us have fond memories of walking through those familiar blue-and-white stores. Then, in this week's Mental Health Story, we talk about social media and how we can use it for good. Social media can be a wonderful tool for connection, encouragement, creativity and community—but it can also be incredibly easy to get pulled into negativity, outrage and rage bait. How do we take a breath, think before we react, and choose to use these platforms in a way that makes the world just a little bit better? For The Story Behind the Song, we head to the mountains with John Denver and “Rocky Mountain High.” We'll talk about how the song came to be, what it really means, the controversy that surrounded it, and why it became one of Denver's signature songs. And finally, we'll close out the episode with the special, quirky and sometimes downright unusual days of the week—a few fun reasons to celebrate, smile and maybe learn something new. It's another relaxed, nostalgic and sometimes thoughtful conversation on the Rick's Rambles Podcast, where we talk about music, memories, mental health, history, pop culture and the little things that make life interesting.

In prehistoric days - like, say, the 1970s - your local rock radio station might play a song that caught your ear. Then you might have read a review of that band in something like a Rolling Stone magazine you picked up at a newstand. And that review might have been just the motivation you needed to fork over five or six bucks at Kmart for a copy of the band's new album, which you would have listened to on the turntable that night as you read the album cover and sleeve - once you got the family room to yourself, of course. Today, you might hear an eight-second blip of an unfamiliar song by a band you've never heard of while you're scrolling Instagram and drinking your morning matcha. In between sets during your lunchtime trip to the gym, you do your research - scanning Google, YouTube, Reddit - to find out more about the band and sample their songs. By the time you walk the dog after dinner, you're listening to your new playlist featuring songs by the band you heard for the first time this morning as well as three other bands that sound similar and were suggested to you by your streaming service. How we find, buy and consume music has changed in just about every way possible over the years. Everything is everywhere all at once and pretty much free if you don't want to buy it, and so mobile that you can listen to it every step of your day. But is the process of music consumption better? Has it become so accessible and random that it has lost some of its magic? What do we even know our favorite singers and musicians today? Are they now just faceless performers entertaining us in the moment? And do all of those music products actually deliver a better sound, or does music feel a little cheaper now? On this week's episode, the "How We Heard It" hosts consider the changes music fans have gone through in consuming their favorite artists - some for the better, some for the worse - and ask themselves if they're better off now. Are you?    

Your house needs a “dirty zone”. Which, let’s face it, is just as well. Also, is there such a thing as living too long? Jessie Stephens wants to take on the longevity craze and unpack this dangerous idea, after seeing Lucinda Holdforth speak. Plus, Holly Wainwright blames Harry Styles for the fact that running has become the coolest hobby there is, Jessie has a theory about marathon runners and Em thinks there’s a very strict rule about how long they can wear their medals. And, a marathon (ouch) of recommendations, friends: Em recommends a water filter jug from Kmart. Jessie recommends A LOT — The Things We Never Say by Elizabeth Strout, The Traitors Australia, and Silk Pillowcases. Also Love Island. Holly recommends My Brilliant Career on Netflix. Keen for more?

Oh no it looks as if the Resident Evil movies might be on the decline after the incredible (by Resident Evil movie standards) third entry. Paul WS Anderson finally returns as director for Afterlife, a movie that takes some elements from the previous movies (Alice clones, the character of Kmart, not being able to remember your memories) and hits the ground running in what many are describing as a movie they might have seen around the time it came out but it's actually impossible to say. It does have the first appearance of Chris Redfield as played by Wentworth Miller. But don't get attached.

A vacant Kmart can sit empty for years. Neil Henderson sees something different: a building shell that may already have much of what a self storage project needs. Neil and his team at Nomad Capital Group have built a portfolio that includes about 12 syndicated self storage properties, with most involving adaptive reuse. They have converted old retail stores, grocery stores, mills, warehouses, and former Kmarts into climate controlled storage. Neil walks Dave through a 100,000 square foot Kmart conversion in Danville, Virginia. The deal faced permitting delays, lost bank financing after U Haul bought land across the street, and a storage market that weakened just as the property opened. Despite those challenges, Neil says the property was sold after a 37 month hold and gave investors a slightly better return than originally projected, although there were no distributions during the hold. Neil also shares what has happened across the storage market as higher interest rates slowed home sales and fewer people moved. He explains why this has hurt lease up rates and pushed storage operators to compete harder on price. Key Topics and Takeaways Why Nomad Capital Group focuses heavily on adaptive reuse How an empty Kmart can become climate controlled self storage Why conversions can open much faster than ground up projects How slower home sales affected demand for storage Why some facilities went from roughly 3 percent monthly lease up to about 1 percent Why Neil says patience matters for investors in development deals Why Nomad has not bought a facility so far in 2026 Guest Information Neil Henderson is with Nomad Capital Group and is also the host of Truly Passive Income, a podcast with more than 150 episodes at the time of this conversation. Neil said he is interested in connecting with people who want to learn about passive investing in commercial real estate.

At 16, Matt Ebert wrecked his car twice. The first one was totaled. The second time, he was too afraid to file an insurance claim, certain it would cost him his coverage and with it his newfound freedom to drive. So he found a man in town who worked a day job and fixed cars at night in his garage, and asked to be taught.He has been in collision repair ever since. Today he is the founder and CEO of Crash Champions, with more than 650 locations, 11,000 employees, 60,000 cars repaired every month, and $3 billion in revenue. He calls that 5 percent of his market and says it is nowhere near enough.In this episode, recorded at PodCrash Studios in Chicago, Bart Berkey asks Matt the question this show is built on: what do you do that most people don't? What follows is the conversation most CEO interviews never reach. Kmart clothes and split kids' meals. A paper route that taught him to collect, hold, pay, and keep the difference. One hundred thousand dollars cash advanced on credit cards for four Subway franchises that never made money, and a return to the body shop floor to cover the bills. A mind that has never once treated quitting as an option.Matt is candid about the parts that do not fit on a highlight reel. Why he is most comfortable at the bottom of the rollercoaster and most nervous at the top. Why he still cannot sleep. What the drive has cost his wife and his kids, and why he measures the quality of his time with them rather than the quantity. And why, at Crash Champions, repairing the car is only the ante. The real work is trust, delivered to people on the worst day of their week, across 650 locations he cannot personally stand in.His answer to the closing question is one word longer than you expect, and it reframes everything before it: most people don't get curious enough.Most people fix what is broken and move on. Matt Ebert built a company around leaving things better than he found them.Key takeawaysThink bigger than the room you are in. Matt's answer to "what do you do that most people don't" was immediate: he thinks bigger, and he pushes the people around him to do the same. It was not there at 16. It got built.The wreck was the doorway. Two crashes at 16 and a fear of losing his driving freedom sent him into a neighbor's garage to learn collision repair. The problem he was trying to avoid became the career.He is not naturally good at anything, and that is the advantage. "I can't sing, I can't dance, I don't have athletic ability." What he learned instead was that he can figure almost anything out if he reads about it, asks about it, and practices it.Better is the whole business. Landscaping, construction, collision repair, all of it is transformation. "I want people to think their life has been better for having me involved in it." Bart's frame for it: easy to be, but better to become.Learn more at mattebert.com and crashchampion.com Listen to PodCrash with Matt Ebert wherever you get your podcasts Follow Matt: LinkedIn, Instagram @mattebertcc, X @MattEbertCC, Facebook @MattEbertCC

Oh my! From Toys 'R' Us to Sears, from JC Penney to Kmart, we talk all about shopping and wishbooks. The Sears Wish Book began in 1933 as a special Christmas edition of the Sears, Roebuck and Co. catalog, packed with toys, games, dolls, bicycles, clothing, and other gifts that quickly made it a beloved holiday tradition for American families. Over the decades, the catalog grew into a massive annual showcase—often hundreds of pages long—where generations of children eagerly circled, dog-eared, and dreamed about the presents they hoped Santa might bring. As department-store catalogs declined and shopping shifted online, Sears discontinued the traditional Wish Book in the 1990s, briefly revived it in print and digital forms in later years, and left behind an enduring piece of Christmas nostalgia.Toys? Check. Clothes? Yeah, they're in there too. Christmas decorations? Of course! So grab your red marker and circle all the things you want in this episode on 1980s holiday shopping and wishbooks!  Give us a buzz!

Kmart has been ordered to pay a Christchurch couple just over 15 thousand dollars to cover costs incurred by removing asbestos-contaminated play sand from their home. In November last year, Kmart issued a recall notice for some coloured play sand products after testing found asbestos - prompting many family homes, daycares and schools to undergo intense cleaning processes. Gemma Rasmussen - from Consumer NZ believes it's the first Disputes Tribunal ruling about recalled children's sand. One of the successful complainants, Elle Chrisp, spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

We're back with The Briefing: Our Take, our weekend hang-out where we loosen our ties and kick off our shoes to take you behind the scenes of the week that was, and what you (and we) made of it. This weekend Chris is joined by Justine Landis-Hanley and they unpack how Miles Phillips and his Eastern Rosellas went from a backyard novelty to the ARIA record books. Chris answers your questions about the Kyle Sandilands interview, before they dig into your thoughts on Kmart's knock-off Meta glasses (+ the bird flu conspiracy theory we didn't know existed). We’re also joined in studio by LiSTNR entertainment executive producer Elise Cooper for The Weekend Quiz, who brings more live vocals to the show than actual recording artists. Plus we cap it all off with the Weekend List. The Weekend Quiz (just questions, no answers): Which airline announced it will start charging passengers to put carry-on luggage in the overhead lockers? Which former NRL player and viral book-tokker alleged this week that gambling company promoters would supply him with drugs and alcohol to keep him betting? Who said this and who was he talking about? "What single answer does she have to any of the list of problems and challenges which I went through before? Zip is the answer to that.” What crashed into the moon this week? Name one song Delta Goodrem performed in the Comm Games closing ceremony.

Jonesy and Amanda are back with another thought-provoking, yet funny episode. We discuss the latest trends in technology, including the rise of Kmart "smart" glasses that can record and film people without their consent. We explore the implications of this and how it's affecting our society, making us question what it means to be in public and what we're comfortable with. But it's not all serious business - we also tackle some lighter topics, like the age-old debate about wearing jeans at home. We discuss the results of our whip poll, which reveals some surprising insights into what Australians think about this issue.

“Kmart sucks.” Join Ian, Liam & Megs for our 342nd episode as we hit the road for Ian's Patreon pick, Barry Levinson's Oscar-winning classic Rain Man (1988). It's a journey across America filled with family wounds, unexpected connection, and one of the most celebrated performances in cinema history. Kev isn't with us this week—he insisted Raymond was right about Kmart underwear and is currently somewhere in the American Midwest refusing to buy a different brand. This week we discuss: Dustin Hoffman's Oscar-winning performance — groundbreaking, influential, and endlessly imitated. How well has Raymond Babbitt's portrayal of autism stood the test of time? Tom Cruise before he became Tom Cruise — is Charlie Babbitt one of the strongest dramatic performances of his career, and does his character truly earn the emotional destination the film arrives at? Ian makes the case for a brilliant screenplay — from inherited trauma and forgiveness to what it means to truly communicate and how do we compartmentalise intimacy -  we explore why every major theme reinforces another in one of the tightest character scripts we've reviewed. The road movie structure — why does Rain Man work because Raymond doesn't fundamentally change... Charlie does? The elevator scene — one of the film's sweetest moments or one of its most complicated? We unpack how differently that sequence plays in 2026 and whether it's an affirmation of Raymond's humanity, a thoughtful act of kindness, or something more ethically complex. Las Vegas — does the casino sequence undercut Charlie's character development by rewarding the very instincts he's supposed to be leaving behind, or is it a necessary step in his transformation? Liam explores the brothers' relationship — does the film ultimately become less about autism than about learning to see another person on their terms rather than your own? Megs examines the film's emotional honesty — sentimentality, manipulation, and whether Rain Man earns every emotional beat it asks of its audience. The "show versus tell" balance — how much does the film trust Hoffman's performance to communicate Raymond's world without resorting to unnecessary exposition? The supporting cast — particularly Susanna. Is she underwritten, or does she quietly become the emotional bridge between Charlie and Raymond? The ending — understated, bittersweet, and refreshingly restrained. Could there have been any other conclusion that stayed true to these characters? And finally, whether Rain Man is the Best Film Ever — or one of the finest character-driven dramas ever put to film.

What began with a few lone migratory birds is now spreading through our native populations, and while conservationists welcome the more than $113 million already invested to get us prepared - they say now that it's here, more needs to be put on the table. In this episode of The Briefing, Chris Spyrou speaks with Jack Gough, CEO of the Invasive Species Council, who's urging the Albanese Government to commit at least $200 million to help our wildlife survive what's coming. He explains what that money would go towards, what species are most at risk, and how the strain can move from low risk in humans to a higher one.

"What you have to understand is, four days ago he was only my brother in name and this morning we had pancakes." It's time for another Frankie favourite here on Film Junk: the 1988 road trip dramedy Rain Man! This one was a huge blockbuster at the time and went on to win four Oscars including Best Picture. But has it been forgotten and a little underappreciated over the years? Was Dustin Hoffman right to question his own performance? Was Tom Cruise snubbed by the Academy that year? Did Hans Zimmer's score break new ground or was it just following '80s trends? Would Raymond really say "Kmart sucks"? Definitely three minutes to Wapner... hurry up and listen to this week's episode of the Film Junk Podcast.

Matt's back from Bali and he's got beef... with the nonnas of this country, who apparently think it's fine to kiss children they've never met in airport elevators. Ash also unveiled the greatest travel hack of all time: April's buffet tackle box, a Kmart special that's fed the family for an entire holiday. Matt and Ash also weigh in on the great plane seat debate, why the red-eye flight home is a rookie error, and whether telling your kids the screens are "broken" counts as good parenting (it does). Plus, a Par-Rant about car park vultures circling mid-nappy-change, whether you're a good parent if all you do is bring home the money, and the daycare sickness dilemma splitting one very pregnant listener.

The Experience Strategy Podcast | theexperiencestrategist.substack.com A Wall Street Journal article from June 3, 2026 asked a question that stopped the hosts cold: What is personalized pricing, and why are lawmakers scrambling to ban it? The premise — that companies might start using behavioral data to charge you a price uniquely calibrated to what you'll pay — prompted an immediate, live Google search and a conversation that spanned economics, loyalty, Kmart's demise, Coca-Cola's famous blunder, and a grocery delivery mishap that somehow became a love story. What's in This Episode Dynamic pricing versus personalized pricing — there's a real difference. Seasonal pricing, surge pricing, and inventory-based price swings are old news. What the WSJ article is pointing at is something newer: AI-powered systems that use your specific behavioral data — browsing history, routines, purchase patterns, location — to set a price just for you. The Uber example makes it concrete: if the system knows you take your kid to school every morning at 8am, it can raise the price for that ride because it knows you'll pay it. Does Amazon already do this? Amazon says no — prices shift every ten minutes based on competitor pricing, inventory, and overall popularity, not individual profiles. But dig deeper and you find location-based and behavior-based price discrimination already in practice. Joe's verdict: "Amazon is really good at hiding it." Aransas found documentation confirming that Prime membership status, browsing history, and purchase behavior all factor in — which, as she points out, is exactly what the article is describing. The economic logic is real, but so are the ethics. Joe makes the case for dynamic pricing on classical economics grounds: it clears markets, matches price to willingness-to-pay, and brings sellers to the table who wouldn't otherwise show up (hence the umbrella vendor in the rain). But Dave flags where it gets dangerous fast: zip code-based pricing is functionally equivalent to race-based pricing in many markets. Charging more to people in food deserts, or gouging communities after a tornado, is a different proposition entirely than charging more for a hotel room during peak season. The Coca-Cola cautionary tale. About 20 years ago, Coca-Cola announced dynamic pricing in their vending machines — prices would rise when it was hot out. They were immediately lambasted. Joe's observation: all they had to do was flip the frame. "When it's cold, we charge less" and "when it's hot, we charge more" describe the exact same pricing model — but one is a gift and the other is exploitation. How you present it is everything. They never launched it. Consumers will have counter-tools — and faster than you think. Dave predicts the AI arms race runs both ways. The same technology enabling personalized pricing will power consumer-side tools that comparison-shop in real time, flag price discrimination, and route purchases to cheaper alternatives automatically. He's watching Gemini (especially through Apple's Siri integration) as the likely first mover on this. Joe's point: "Information will out." If you're doing it in secret, your customers will eventually find out. Would you do it if you had to announce it at the same time? The subscription model is the cleaner answer. Both Dave and Aransas point to subscription as the more honest path — you get a flat, predictable price; the company gets reliable lifetime value; and the relationship isn't built on information asymmetry. Aransas's Stop and Shop story becomes the episode's centerpiece here: online grocery delivery, happily paying the subscription fee and weekly tips, lower total grocery spend despite the higher convenience cost, and 100% share of wallet. The relationship survived bruised bananas and a botched delivery in a heat wave — because a customer service rep named her new best friend recovered the moment with warmth and a complete solution. That's the model. The Kmart lesson. Dave connects the dots to history: Kmart's blue light specials trained customers to hold out for the deal. Consumers got tired of gaming the system, Walmart offered everyday low prices and won. Ticketmaster is living the next version of this story right now. Pricing models that turn every transaction into a battle erode trust and invite regulation. Transparency is the experience strategist's job. Aransas closes with the takeaway she most wants the audience to carry out: experience strategists are going to be in the room when these conversations happen. Be the person who says, let's not do this in secret. The companies that deploy personalized pricing with transparency — "here's why you're seeing this price" — are the ones that preserve the relationship. The ones that don't will get caught.

What if waiting until you feel ready is the reason you keep missing the opportunity? A lot of people have ideas, ambition, and opinions, but very few are willing to move before they have the perfect plan. Ronnen Harary built Spin Master by doing the thing so many people avoid: making the first small decision, trusting his gut, asking who could help, and moving fast enough to catch the opportunity while everyone else was still thinking about it. He did not start with decades of experience, unlimited resources, or a perfect roadmap. He started with curiosity, speed, persistence, and a willingness to figure it out in real time. This matters because opportunity rarely looks polished when it first shows up. Sometimes it looks like a weird grass toy, a product everyone else passed on, or a preschool show created after two brutal years of company losses. Ronnen's story is a reminder that success is built through motion, not overthinking. The people who win are the ones who create momentum, learn fast, build the right partnerships, and keep going long enough for the next big thing to appear. Ronnen Harary is the co-founder and former CEO of Spin Master, one of the world's largest children's entertainment companies, behind brands including Paw Patrol, Bakugan, Air Hogs, Rubik's Cube, Melissa & Doug, and Toca Boca. He is also the author of No Experience Necessary. In this episode, he breaks down entrepreneurship, instinct, failure, culture, partnerships, decision-making, and why not knowing too much can sometimes be the advantage that gets you moving. What's discussed: (02:11) Why Ronnen wrote No Experience Necessary after building one of the biggest toy companies in the world. (05:48) Why a learning disability does not mean a lack of intelligence. (13:27) How Spin Master started with two college friends, fertilizer sales, and the decision to go into business for themselves. (20:46) How one bold Kmart meeting turned into an order for 48,000 pieces and the possibility of half a million more. (27:02) Why bite-sized decisions, momentum, and asking for help matter more than having the full plan. (30:11) Why speed to market and fast scaling helped Earth Buddies beat the competition. (36:56) How Air Hogs became the product everyone passed on before it took Spin Master from $7 million to $35 million in sales. (48:57) How Paw Patrol was created during Spin Master's lowest point after losses, layoffs, and failed shows. (01:02:43) Why the ability to say sorry, debate well, and remove ego is critical in business partnerships. (01:21:17) How overthinking led him to turn down a $100 million Universal movie deal.   Thank You to Our Sponsors! Magic Mind: Head over to magicmind.com/jen and use code JEN at checkout.
