Hot Dogs, Pay Phones & JCPenny Crimes

from Hoot’n & Holler’n With Matt Mitchell · host Matt Mitchell

This week on Hoot’n and Holler’n, the crew takes a nostalgic stroll through the golden age of malls when KB Toys was king, Sears still mattered, and the smell of popcorn from The Peanut Shack basically was cologne. From abandoned anchor stores to stolen wallets at JCPenney, Toys “R” Us bankruptcy gossip, the death of fountains and wishing wells, and the true chaos of Costco on a Saturday—this episode hits everything from childhood wonder to adult irritation. Along the way, we spiral into hot dogs, Kirkland beer, mall zombies, body shop outfits, and a revelation that Joey was clearly born to be the size-appropriate horror-movie villain.
