Bringing Malls Back from the Dead
On the season one finale of Radically Polished, Jason and Rob tackle the not-so-shocking reality that America’s malls are on life support, and it's going to take more than an Auntie Anne's to keep them alive. The way forward? "De-malling” these retail dinosaurs out of the stone age, and transforming them into mixed-use hubs where you can do yoga, listen to smooth-jazz, walk your dog with an iced matcha in hand, and gather around a firepit - all in what used to be a Sears parking lot. Through stories of brutally honest client meetings and half-empty malls clinging to relevance, they're making one thing clear: people don’t hate shopping, they hate boring retail boxes.The future belongs to places with energy, experiences, and actual humans sticking around longer than 20 minutes; because your local mall deserves better than becoming a Spirit Halloween.

Demystifying Construction Administration
On this episode of Radically Polished, Jason Shepard and construction veteran Terry Dopp dismantle the myth that architecture ends at drawings, and expose why Construction Administration is a real make-or-break phase of a project. In a world where 100 RFIs turn into 600, contractors build from the wrong sheets, accessibility issues get buried behind drywall, and schedule pressures try to bulldoze good decisions, a top-notch CA team is a necessity. Terry brings boots-on-the-ground insight into why CA doesn't come down to a checkbox or paperwork; it’s proactive problem-solving, code enforcement, team alignment, and occasionally saying the hard “no” that protects everyone’s investment. From embedding CA into design early, to training the next generation instead of recycling burned-out PMs, this episode makes one thing clear: great buildings don’t happen by accident, they’re defended into existence.
