Full Carts

Full Carts is a podcast about shopping experiences. In each episode, hosts Devin and Andy visit a store and discuss what it was like, along with any thoughts and memories that get churned up. They then distill their observations into a highly subjective Cart Score of 1-4 Carts: How well did it work for them? The show is founded on an appreciation of the desire to understand, express, and improve ourselves through our things, and an affection for the people and places behind memorable shopping moments. Affable consumption under capitalism.

    The Brooklyn Made Shopping Experience

    After a stop at the Apple Genius Bar, Devin and Andy visit Brooklyn Made, a two-location gift shop celebrating Brooklyn goods. What’s the difference between a gift shop and a self-gift shop? Are all Chambers of Commerce at least a little menacing? Should NYers be mocked for their bodega love? What was the Brooklyn Maker Movement, and how was it related to the aughts hipster? What does the Brooklyn “brand” mean these days? Should Brooklyn chocolate covered pretzel specialist Fatty Sundays do a collab with Saturdays NYC?? Bodega Cat book (a triumph!), Bodega cat shirt, Bodega cat puzzle, Bodega cat sticker Closet deadstock Brooklyn 4th Largest City sticker, and the Welcome Back, Kotter opening credits that inspired it (check out the backstory!)

    The Primark Shopping Experience

    After a discussion of the evolution of the CVS app and a trip to free some men’s underwear from TJ Maxx, Devin and Andy break down a visit to Primark, a discount clothing chain founded in Ireland and currently expanding in the US. How cheap is too cheap? How impressive is the Primark adaptive clothing selection? Is this a Mickey Mouse operation? Does Primark have the best variety of team gear outside of the leagues themselves? What does it mean when ice cream in the food court costs more than a hoodie??

    The Coffee Equipment Shopping Experience

    Historian, author, and brother-in-law of the podcast Jon Grinspan joins Devin and Andy to talk about coffee making and coffee drinking methods, as well as the coffee maker buying experience. What are some of your personal coffee canon events? How did the Civil War change the coffee game? Is making coffee the simplest or most complicated thing in the world? Are you a bean skeptic or bean believer? Is it always iced coffee weather for Gen Z? Is the beauty of hot coffee in that contradictory mix of comfort and stimulation?? How Coffee Fueled the Civil War by Jon Grinspan (nyt) Robert Downey Jr.’s New “Happy Coffee” Is Really Depressing (Sprudge) Does Anyone Drink Hot Coffee Anymore? (nyt) (Note: Jon gives the coffee equipment shopping experience...3.5 carts.)

    The Vintage Record Store Shopping Experience

    Devin and Andy check out Black Gold Records to take the pulse of shopping for used vinyl. The store also has a coffee bar and antiques; is coffee + cool things to browse the retail model that makes the most sense now? When and where are we listening to music? What else are we looking for at a record store: books on the occult? VHS concert tapes? Rare jazz? A vintage PIG shirt? Wall pieces? Useful flyers? Kindred spirits? A time machine? Is writing about leaving Spotify the new writing about leaving New York?

    The Abercrombie & Fitch Shopping Experience

    Devin, Andy, and special guest Leslie Price (check out the excellent Hello Gloria newsletter!) explore some meanings of Abercrombie & Fitch: from its 1890s founding as an upscale sporting goods store through the dizzying and problematic Mike Jeffries horny-prep aughts to the more inclusive rebrand of today. How does Leslie’s experience of working at A&F in 2000 shape her sense of the brand? Was working there more of an MLM-lite scheme than a job? Why were they punching piles of cargo pants? How was it different from working at the Gap? What does the current A&F NFL line mean? How are hoodies and fidget culture related? Is the current A&F aesthetic, like cropped clothes for men, shaped in part by overseas interest in the brand? How soft are those kids' tees?? What is gained and what is lost in this new, less clubby iteration of Abercrombie? Links: Wikipedia on A&F Fast Company on the current success of A&F Netflix A&F doc, White Hot Video footage of aughts A&F store Vintage A&F badminton ad Fashionista essay about nostalgia for the good/bad old days at A&F Story in MEL of perfumer who created Fierce Cologne Joan Didion Gap ad What It’s Like by Everlast Notes: The Seth Green character referenced was in Can't Hardly Wait rather than She's All That, and Dawson's Creek took place in Massachusetts, but was filmed in and inspired by North Carolina...

    The 8-Bit Christmas Experience

    For a holiday episode, D&A discuss 80s nostalgia (and Xmas shopping) movie 8-Bit Christmas (2021): toy fads, malls in movies, old school video games…. Was the inclusion here of Rampage an artistic or executive decision? How have bullies and gendered boots changed since 1988? What does cursive mean now? Has the age of manias around fad toys come to an end? What does it mean that Steve Zahn's dad character is a fan of ⁠Steely Dan⁠? Are most mall scenes shot at Toronto’s Woodbine Mall and Fantasy Fair?? Would the in/famous Pretty in Pink test screenings play differently now? Should the maxim “Everyone has a novel in them” be updated to “Everyone has a chatty movie podcast in them”? (Episode contains spoilers about 8-Bit Christmas.)

    The Japanese Grocery and Gift Shop Shopping Experience: Part 2

    In part 2/2, Devin and Andy dig into the grocery half of Ten Ichi Mart. Would you rather have a poster of Gursky’s 99 Cent, or of this story’s lead ramen image? How about both?? Do you know the backstory of Cafe Du Monde canned coffee? Have you ever had hot canned coffee from a vending machine? Do you need to study this tutorial on how to open onigiri as much as Andy does? Are you curious about Big, Raw Pepsi? If you find a product like Laoganma Spicy Chili Crisp transformative and want to share this information with a friend, is it enough to merely mention it, or do you make a video singing its praises like John Cena, or are you duty bound, in the spirit of They Live, to fight that friend in a trash-strewn alley until they submit and see the truth of what you know?

    The Japanese Grocery and Gift Shop Shopping Experience: Part 1

    In part 1 of a two-parter, the Full Cart Fellows check out the Gift Shop half of Ten Ichi Mart, a Japanese Grocery/Gift Shop. “Don’t Call It An ‘Ethnic’ Grocery Store,” urges the NYTimes (also: can we get a framed print of that lead image of an array of ramen??) Is a Zojirushi rice cooker worth it? What’s the difference between a variety store, gift shop, and “treat store”? How much stuff is too much stuff, and who would decide how many hoodies or magnets everyone gets? Is that a banana slicer in your shopping basket? What’s the coolest backpack dangler? Who’s intimidated by recipes that call for you to do something “quickly”??
