Every two weeks, Justin McElroy, Steve Masuch and rotating guests explore a different mall in our region, as we debate and determine what a mall means in 2026, and which one in Metro Vancouver is truly the best.

Come along with us on this very silly but worthwhile journey, as we go to new food courts, and debate old memories.

Consider it less as a definitive ranking and more of an anthology of the walkable indoor commercial spaces of our city that inspire joy, annoyance, nostalgia and questions about their future.
