This week Greg and Ed have a bit of fun revisiting an old blog post from Greg about what would be the best slogans for various malls around Bangkok. As most listeners know, Bangkok may very well be the capital city of malls and mall culture, and each mall seems to have its own identity. The guys walk through Greg's somewhat salty slogans from ten years ago to see if they are still valid.

Here are some representative examples: MBK - "Not even we know what stores lurk in our dark corners and forgotten depths." Ed chuckles at the appropriateness of the slogan, given that MBK seems chock full of unexpected side areas and forgotten hallways. EmQuartier - "Come for the cool food hall and interesting stores. Stay because you can't find the exit." Once again, Ed concurs, having just been at the infamously architecturally complex mall. Central World - "Stop whining, the 5 km walk will do you good." With its renovations over the years, this mall has undoubtedly improved, but one fact can't be denied: it's freaking huge. So if you need some more steps to get to your 10k for the day, this is the mall to do it.

Ed even chimes in with some of his own slogans for Bangkok's new malls, such as Icon Siam: "A mall designed 100% for Asians: as long as you are a rich Chinese tourist." This time Greg nods his head in agreement. Listen in for our take on the bounty of unique malls through the city.

Don't forget that Patrons get the ad-free version of the show as well as swag and other perks. We also sometimes post on Facebook, you can contact us on LINE and of course, head to our website (www.bangkokpodcast.com) to find out probably more info than you need to know.
