Here's my latest video. I've never really spent any time in a Nordstrom or Nordstrom Rack store before. They've recently had a few quarters of declining sales, so I figured I should go check a few stores out. The differences between the 2 stores are interesting. I also experienced quite a bit of "sticker shock" when looking a...

Here's my latest video 😃 It's the holiday season, which means it's time to look at another Christmas catalog from an old department store chain. This time it's a new catalog from Montgomery Ward. I go into how and why this weird thing exists in the video. I have to apologize for the audio quality, I had some microphone iss...

I will have 2 new videos out this week. The first will be out tomorrow. Did you know Montgomery Ward is still around and still puts out catalogs? I got my hands on the Christmas 2023 catalog.
The second video will be out Friday, we'll be checking out Christmas time at the mall.
Thank you everyone for your patien...
Have you seen those videos where a wheel flys off of a car and smashes into something? I got to experience that first hand tonight. I was driving my kid to dance class and we got hit by a wheel that flew off a Jeep. We were in the turn lane waiting to make a left when suddenly there was a very loud bang and the whole truck ro...

If you listen to podcasts you should check out the Super Gamer Podcast. I was the guest on the latest episode. A link is attached to this post.
Also, I'm still working on the video that I thought I could get done by Sunday. I vastly underestimated the amount of time it would take me to get software installed, data copi...
The hard drive in the laptop I use for editing died a few days ago. I installed a new one, so it's up and running again. Thankfully, I didn't lose any footage. I'm pretty good about backing up footage. What I'm not good about is backing up the project files for the videos I'm currently working on. I was planning on putting a ...

In the next few episodes, we'll be going to the mall 🙂 Thanks everyone!
Here's the latest episode of Retail Archaeology. It's spooky season, so it's time to check in on Spirit Halloween. This old Chuck E. Cheese is an awesome Spirit Halloween location 🙂

Here's my latest video. I hope you all enjoy it! This one was a lot of fun to make. I've been wanting to do another thrifting video for a while. It's taken a long time to compile enough footage for a whole episode. The thrift stores here in the Phoenix area just haven't had a lot of interesting stuff latley. In this episode I...

Here's the latest episode of Retail Archaeology. Puente Hills Mall was the filming location for Twin Pines Mall in Back to the Future. It's now a very dead mall. Thank you everyone for your support!

Here's my latest video. It's a little shorter than usual. That's because I'm working on some longer videos, and they're taking me a little longer to get done than expected. My next video will be around 30 minutes and covers a very dead mall in Southern California. Thanks you everyone!

Tomorrow I will be filming and working on a video with Mark that I've been wanting to do for a while. I don't want to spoil ...
Here's my latest video. This one covers my first trip to Tucson Mall. This place had become one of my favorite malls. It's beautiful to look at and has some really great stuff inside. Thank you everyone for your support!

Hello everyone, I wanted to provide some updates on upcoming videos and what I'm working on. I will have a new episode of Retail Archaeology out on Friday. I was hoping to have it out sooner but I'm just getting over a wicked sinus infection and my voice doesn't sound quite right yet. I still sound a little plugged up. I norm...

Here's the latest episode of Retail Archaeology, it goes live to the public tomorrow. In this one we take a look at Party City. They filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy a few days ago. I filmed this a few days before the bankruptcy filing. I had a feeling they would be filing soon and wanted footage for a video covering it. I did...

2023-01-14 22:12:13 +0000 UTC View PostI just got the voice over done for the next episode. Working on this video has been challenging because my neighbors are doing construction. It's been loud at the worst possible times, basically any time I've had time to record. Overall I'm about 85% done with the video and the hardest part is done now. I should be uploading ...

I will have a new video out in the next few days. I grabbed the last bit of footage I needed to complete it today. Also, with the weather getting nice again livestreams will start up again on the RA2 channel soon.
Another nice thing about this time of year is that I can take some time off from my job. I'm planning on ...
