Podcasts about malls

Malls hold a special spot in the hearts of many Americans of a certain age. One may have been the setting for your first date, the place you caught a now-classic summer blockbuster, or even a daycare of sorts after mom dropped you off with a few friends (and maybe a few bucks). In our last episode, we looked back at the history of Chicago's Ford City Mall and the heyday of mall culture in America: the 1980s and 1990s. In this episode, we look at how malls are doing today with Stephanie Cegielski, vice president of the International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC). She says reports of the death of the mall are overblown, that malls are adapting to a new era by offering experiences, and that Gen Z is playing a large role in malls' resilience. Cegielski cites an ICSC survey of over 1,000 people aged 16-26 that found 60% of respondents say they visit malls just to socialize or meet friends, even if they don't need to purchase something specific. “We just asked them blankly, ‘Do you still go to the mall?'” Cegielski said. “And the short answer was yes.”

CBL Properties' Stephen Lebovitz and CBRE's Rich Frolik explain how malls are being transformed into high-performing, mixed-use assets. From casinos and hotels to pickleball and movie theaters, malls are evolving to meet modern demand.Key takeaways on the evolution of malls: · Malls are transitioning into multi-use destinations, integrating entertainment, hospitality and residential to diversify income and increase relevance.· Financing is increasingly accessible for retail assets, with recent deals showing lender confidence and competitive debt structures.· Success depends on hyper-local strategies, with redevelopment tailored to demographics, infrastructure and competitive dynamics.· Malls in secondary markets benefit from large trade areas and limited alternatives, reinforcing their role as dominant regional retail hubs.· Redeveloping legacy anchor spaces into formats that appeal to current customer wants and tastes can unlocks value and enhance long-term viability.

The fast-evolving retail landscape has zapped the life out of once bustling shopping centers throughout the Bay Area. And yet, many of the region's legacy malls are still thriving. While San Francisco Centre, the former home of high-end department stores downtown, is now mostly empty, a revamped Stonestown in San Francisco's west side is full of shoppers. Tenants such as indoor arcades, escape rooms and niche food vendors are drawing crowds to once desolate malls. We talk about where Bay Area shoppers are still going and how brick and mortar shopping is changing.

It focused on helping new immigrants in Canada find their feet, get off to a running start and ease their assimilation into Canadian life. A big part of the platform were conversations, community and support. Though the startup stopped growing once Aditya moved to Seattle, WA - it remained alive in the form of several discussion groups and online communities. Now, Diasporaa has been resurrected in the form of a podcast focused on uncovering and sharing interesting immigrant stories from the South Asian diaspora. It is available on YouTube, all major podcast platforms such as Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, etc. and is also broadcast as a radio show on Alternative Talk 1150 AM and 98.9 FM HD Channel 3 on Wednesdays from 2-3pm PST. About Aditya Mehta: Aditya is a Bombay boy who has lived in Austin, Los Angeles, Washington DC, and Vancouver, before making it to his current home in Seattle. He has degrees in marketing, urban planning, real estate and strategy but has spent his career in financial services, social media and now real estate - mostly as an entrepreneur and partly as an employee at Amazon. He balances Indian, Canadian and American culture, loves helping those who are new to North America and looks forward to the interesting stories that his interview guests bring each week. When not podcasting, he is helping his wife Prachi build her pharmaceutical business or hanging out with his son Arjun.

In 1979, Mayor Jane Byrne transformed a nine-block stretch of state street into a pedestrian mall. It did not go well. Since then, that example has been used as a cautionary tale against turning streets into pedestrian only areas.

We believe all neighborhoods deserve to be covered in a meaningful way.We amplify positive stories, cover development and local school council meetings and serve as watchdogs in neighborhoods often ostracized by traditional news media.Ground-level coverageOur neighborhood-based reporters don't parachute in once to cover a story. They are in the neighborhoods they cover every day building relationships over time with neighbors. We believe this ground-level approach not only builds community but leads to a more accurate portrayal of a neighborhood.Stories that matter to you — every daySince our launch five years ago, we've published more than 25,000 stories from the neighborhoods, covered hundreds of community meetings and send daily and neighborhood newsletters to more than 130,000 Chicagoans. We've built this loyalty by proving to folks we are not only covering their neighborhoods, we are a part of them. Some of us have internalized the national media's narrative of a broken Chicago. We aim to change that by celebrating our neighborhoods and chronicling the resilience of the people who fight every day to make Chicago a better place for all.

Tom Kelly and Steve Burger ride to the Green Acres Mall to film a video.

On this week's Modern Retail Podcast, senior reporters Melissa Daniels and Gabriela Barkho are joined by Modern Retail reporter Mitchell Parton. The team discusses a package that ran on Modern Retail this week, called The State of the Mall. The package highlights how malls are under pressure to continuously reinvent themselves, with topics spanning American Dream's delayed Miami expansion and Tanger's modern take on outlet mall design. Later in the episode, Daniels and Barkho are joined by Kristen Pumphrey and Thomas Neuberger, owners of P.F. Candle Co., to talk about how brands with Made in America products are still being affected by ongoing tariff policies. They discuss the increased challenges of securing raw material overseas, how reciprocal tariffs impact components such as candle jars and packaging, the upsides of producing goods domestically, and leaning into "Made in America" as a marketing message.

Malls were made for browsing, for losing track of time beneath fluorescent lights and echoing music. But in this week's episode of Horror Hill, some places are better left behind—and some corners of the mall were never meant to be found. Join host Erik Peabody as he guides you through two chilling tales from Jason Fischer, whose new collection The Haunting of Towne Point Mall peels back the peeling vinyl and flickering bulbs to reveal something far more sinister behind the storefronts. In one story, a quiet shop owner discovers that some customers don't just linger—they return. In the other, a forgotten employee in a basement office finds himself tangled in something much older than corporate neglect.

The McGraw Show 6-25-25: Malls Are Dying, Undocumented Workers, ODs Are Going Down & the Silver Tsunami by

In this episode of The David Ellefson Show, comedian and metalhead Jim Florentine joins David to share wild stories from his youth growing up in New Jersey near Johnny Z and the legendary Megaforce Records. Jim recalls unforgettable moments like taking Dave Mustaine and Metallica to the mall in the early days, and doing stand-up comedy between sets on the 2010 Megadeth and Slayer tour. He talks about blending metal and humor, including one gig where he got fined for cussing—because the venue was attached to a zoo! It's a hilarious and nostalgic ride through metal history with one of its most unique voices.Today's episode is brought to you by Rockabilia.com, Use code: DAVID10 for 10% Off your order. 100% authentic band merch since 1987!Join the Patreon for early access to episodes and Q and A's with the hosts www.patreon.com/tdesFor David Ellefson Stage Played Basses and Merch www.ellefsonemporium.comFollow David on Social Media linker.ee/davidellefsonFollow Joshua on Social Media linker.ee/talktoomeypodcast #JimFlorentine #Metallica #Megaforce #Megadeth #Comedy

The Horror Dads are back, and are on screen, as they cover their Top-10 Horror Movie Malls. In this episode, John and Jamie discuss escalators that lead to nowhere, and dive in on how every store has some sort of story. This episode has something for everyone from neon-lit chaos, to zombie-infested food courts. Expect personal memories, deep-cut picks, films never seen before, and discussion around why the mall—once a symbol of comfort and community—makes for the perfect horror backdrop.

“Are malls really making a comeback in 2025—or are we just chasing nostalgia?”In this laugh-out-loud episode of The Ben and Skin Show, hosts Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray dive headfirst into a hilariously passionate debate sparked by a USA Today ranking of the Top 10 Malls in America. What starts as a simple list quickly spirals into a nostalgic rollercoaster of memories, jokes, and unexpected revelations.From Richardson Square Mall's golden era—complete with arcades, pet stores, and the first Chick-fil-A—to the surprising resurgence of Redbird Mall (now featuring LEGOLAND, a Sea Life Aquarium, and even Meow Wolf), the crew explores what makes a mall truly iconic.

An Arizona city cracked a top ten list for a good reason, but will their relic be around 10 years from now or will it just become a thing of the past, that’s coming up in the Headline Volley.

In this unique episode of Rethink Real Estate, host Ben Brady is joined by Cameron Hastings, Principal of Landtheory, to dive into a niche yet high-potential sector of commercial real estate—Unanchored Strip Centers. From the outside, they may look like ordinary smoke shop-laden retail strips, but Cameron unpacks why these assets are quickly becoming a favorite among forward-thinking investors.Cameron shares his path from high-rise architecture in New York to acquiring undervalued retail centers in Southern California and Dallas-Fort Worth. He breaks down why unanchored centers—those without big box tenants like Target or Costco—offer stronger leasing flexibility, faster turnover, and often higher cap rates than their anchored counterparts. Plus, Ben and Cameron discuss the future of retail, the role of e-commerce resistance, and how work-from-home trends are driving local strip mall traffic like never before.Whether you're a residential agent looking to level up your investment game or an investor exploring diversification, this episode is packed with insights into overlooked retail real estate strategies.Timestamps & Key Topics:[00:00:00] - Introducing Cameron Hastings & the Strip Center Strategy[00:01:56] - What Is an Unanchored Strip Center, Really?[00:05:36] - Why Institutional Investors Are Just Catching On[00:07:46] - Debunking the Volatility Myth of Unanchored Retail[00:11:01] - Buying Below Replacement Cost: What Cameron Looks For[00:12:19] - The Benjamin Button of Commercial Real Estate[00:14:25] - E-Commerce Resistance and Pandemic-Proof Retail[00:16:10] - Will the "Unsexy Business" Crisis Hurt the Model?[00:18:19] - A Real Acquisition Example: Cathedral City Case Study[00:23:25] - Landtheory's Vision: Building a Sellable Portfolio
