Devin and Andy visit P.C. Richard & Son and consider stereos, recliners, mattresses, T.V.s, and appliance stores in general. Can anybody beat The Wiz in cultural references? Will anyone beat Crazy Eddie’s 7,500 commercials? (Inspiration taken from this list of defunct retailers.) Have you ever been disappointed because you were geared up for a hard sell but didn’t get one? Do Studebaker retro music players do it for you? Is it time for a 1980s re-imagining of the radio scene from That Thing You Do set at The Wiz or P.C. Richard & Son? Do you prefer to get your breaking news from walls of TVs in appliance store windows? What's Best Buy up to these days? Can we interest you in the Full Carts extended warranty?

Tennis t-shirts, anyone? Devin and Andy go online and check out the popular US OPEN merch. What celestial body could a stack of souvenir Honey Deuce cocktail tumblers reach? What’s the best kind of ball for getting autographs? How do The Matrix and The Hudsucker Proxy fit into all this? Do you maybe just need a tee promoting the New Rochelle Challenger, sponsored by Phil’s Tire Town? Should the US Open online store take some inspiration from the Vacation sunscreen site??

D&A head to Economy Candy on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, and make a side visit to IT’SUGAR in Coney Island (check out their candy cans). Would you do business with a candy sleuth calling himself “The Candyman”? What rare candies would you have him track down: Tangy Taffy? Gatorgum? A Hi-Chew flavor that you maybe only dreamt of? How are your Pez-loading skills? Are imported candy bars as good as their reputation? Any brands you’d like Leaf to resurrect? Were you ever soothed by the food factory tours of Unwrapped? Should Haribo gummy mustard strings actually taste like mustard? Is it time to rewrite some of LFO’s Summer Girls?

(Note: There will most likely not be a new episode next week, in that late-August way, but the Full Carts Team looks forward to getting back to it. Thank you for being here!)
