Hey everyone, here's a video I put together a while back. I believe it is the first and only retro video game review filmed in a dead mall. I also talk a little about the announcement that Metrocenter Mall is closing.

In this episode we take look at Eataly, an Italian market with locations all over the world. This footage was filmed in December 2019 and at the time I really enjoyed this place. Some recent news about Eataly's behavior during the current pandemic situation has really soured me on them though. Thank you all for your support!

Here is the latest episode that goes live tomorrow. This a fun video, I figured we could all do without anything else depressing right now. This footage was filmed in October of 2019 so I didn't put myself or anyone else at risk making this video. I'm staying put in my house until this all blows over with my family, some scotch, and my editing computer 🙂 I've got lot's of footage "in the can" so there will be plenty of new episodes during this whole mess.

2020-03-20 22:59:37 +0000 UTC View PostI just got back from Southern California yesterday. The family and I decided that we needed a trip to the beach for some rest and relaxation. Being away from home when all of this news hit about the Corona virus and travel restrictions starting was a little bit scary. I was very happy to get back home yesterday. The good news is I did film a dead mall while I was there and you will all see it this Friday. It looks like we're all going to be cooped up in our houses for a while so that should ...

Here's the last episode of Retail Archaeology for 2019. The next episode should come out around January 3rd. I have the next 2 weeks off from work so I will be taking some much needed R&R.

2019-12-20 15:09:31 +0000 UTC View PostI'm going to be starting a new series called the The Retail Archaeology Companion on the RA2 channel. Often times have footage that for one reason or another doesn't make it into an episode of Retail Archaeology. This new series on my 2nd channel will be a place that I can show the footage without worrying copyright claims sucking all the revenue from an episode of Retail Archaeology. Let me all know what you think and thanks!

Thank you all for your support and patience. I have some really great places filmed that I'm excited to show to all of you. I've recently taken trips to southern California and Las Vegas so there is lots o...

Recently I helped write and lent my voice to a track on a mall soft/vaporwave album. The artist is NINENINENINE who you might recognize, I've used his music in past videos. I decided to put together a music video for track and this is the results. It's a little different than my normal content so hopefully you enjoy it. It's also shorter than my normal content. That worked out well for me as work was very busy this week and I've been prepping for a trip to southern California this weekend. I'...
