PATREON PREVIEW - Die, Workwear! - On Shopping and Retail
04/04/24 • 20 min
There has been much discussion about the slow death of shopping in San Francisco’s downtown district. The decline has been years in the making, with Brooks Brothers, Ralph Lauren, Macy’s, and Nordstrom, all heading elsewhere or shutting down entirely in the area. Why?
Peter and Derek discuss what would bring people back to a brick-and-mortar experience in shopping and what they would like to see themselves.

Albert Muzquiz (Edgy Albert) and the Case of the Dope Pants
My guest this week is Albert Muzquiz.
You might know him as Edgy Albert or the guy in your feed telling you what pants to wear. He's the real dude, and I'm glad he is here.
Albert and I chat about how he became the "Jean Daddy" of the internet, visiting Levi's Archive, his acting career, sick French knives, and LBJ the play.

Steve Tidball of Vollebak on Clothing for the Future
We talk a lot about clothing on this show...I mean, Blamo! is a show about people wearing clothes. Sometimes, we’re trying to figure ourselves out through clothing, solving a problem with the world, flexing our design knowledge, or even all of the above.
But what about designing clothing that lasts 100 years or even for climates outside of Earth? Still there? Enter Vollebak.
My guest this week is Steve Tidball, of Vollebak, a brand he co-founded with his twin brother. They’re making clothes for the future right now.
Steve and I discuss what we need for the next 100 years, the changes that need to happen, whether WALL-E was right, enhanced organisms, trying to live forever, and how clothing is a part of all of it.
