On today's episode of Scatterbrained, we head to the mall! First, we learn about Victor Gruen, who's largely considered the inventor of the modern shopping mall. Then we take you everywhere from Macy's to Sears with facts about department stores. There's a timeline detailing the history of the mall that goes all the way back to the Agora in Athens. We learn the secrets of mall Santas, from salaries to job prep requirements. And we finish up with life hacks for your mall parking needs!
