Joining us in the Bambuser remote podcast studio at Shoptalk Fall in Chicago is Rebecca Fitts, SVP, Alvarez & Marsal's Property Solutions. Hot on the heels of Rebecca's joining us on the inaugural list of top NRF Retail Voices, we do a deep dive into what's new and next for the ever dynamic world of retail real estate. Among the topics we cover is how digital disruption has shaped the physical store landscape, repurposing of malls, lingering impacts from the pandemic, the over-saturation of certain markets, and a whole lot more.

But before our fascinating interview we share our hot-takes on the week in retail news, starting with some initial thoughts on the impact of the US election. Then it's a fast-paced tour through recent earnings reports, starting with Amazon's blockbuster quarter, another solid quarter from mall owner Simon Properties and more meh from Wayfair. We also congratulate a strong move away from wobbly unicorn status for Warby Parker, before wrapping up with the race to the turkey, as Target and Walmart launch more holiday deals.
