Sinopsis
P&C drink and review an amber ale from Guinness, then, with special guest Longinus, discuss mall culture. Longinus gives a quick history of the development of suburbs and malls. Shopping centers evolved into department stores, and the next step was malls. They were mostly to serve the growing suburbs. Malls started popping up all over the place. Investors got involved, and malls were built as investment vehicles rather than to serve actual communities.
