    The Shrimps are Back!
    The 2025 Shrimps opener is such a wonderful surprise. I really hope they do the full 2025 season. It brought joy to my life as the world around us is being actively destroyed.

    2nd verse to Bridge
    So I could play my podcast on Alexa And I go where basketball ladies compete There are Shrimps way out there in North Weddington And a good commentator can’t miss a beat I need play by plays and updates on the score They’re shooting free-throws, where’s the scripture I want more They say Pistol Shrimps Radio isn’t what it used to be But I laughed so hard during their 10th Anniversary So if you hear “These Our Shrimps” on Alexa And you dream of Sexy Ref in your sleep Then Mark & Matt will be trolling Pan Pacific And Cloris Leachman’s waiting at F-man’s Leap (Yay-o, Yay-o)

  • AlabaW
    What a delightful podcast.
    Please start this back up. It’s so unnecessarily chaotic but wholesome and it’s great to listening to while walking dead malls.

    Like Seinfeld!
    This is the Seinfeld of podcasts, in that it's about nothing! Best piece of wonderfully useless chatter! I looove them!!
  • The Ark3403
    I love the Shrimps!
    Thank you Matt and Mark for your comedy! You make my mind make sense!
  • niferlek
    Most underrated podcast
    So hilarious. These guys are effortless. Highly recommend 👍🏻

    Shrimp walkin’
    Do yourself a favor and dive right in the pistol shrimps pool. It’s warm in there, also cool. Somehow it’s also hot. These fellas keep it cozy - check it out! It’s the podcast equivalent to the opposite of Black Friday!
  • SFG_Fan
    Cozy
    I could listen to Matt all day. I grew up going to malls with my mom and have great memories and am still interested in the rise and fall of malls. Mark mentioning he doesn’t want to go into Macys 6000 times an episode gets old but it’s still super enjoyable.

    It’s Got Me Strip-Mall Walkin!
    I love this podcast! It’s like you’re in between two best friends on a trip to the local mall. It has actually gotten me to start Strip-Mall Walkin (I don’t live too close to an actual mall). I go to different strip malls in my surrounding towns and walk around, enjoy the shops and give it my own ratings. Am I old and corny? According to my 16 year old, YES! But am I having fun? Absolutely! Thank you, Matt and Mark for the inspiration and good times!

    Love it and can’t go wrong.
    Enough said.
  • Ummmmm this is my nickname
    Calm down on your hatred for middle America
    Whenever your “tree hugger/if you don’t eat fruit and berries like us you’re stupid” side comes out, it’s really hard for me to listen. We all don’t live on the left coast. We don’t think like you do. So when you mix in your “I think I’m better than you because you eat fried foods” or “I’m not using X because of Elon Musk” it just pushed me out of your followers list. I listen to podcasts to escape from crap like that. I liked your show about nothing. It was pretty fun. But ultimately I had to make a choice. And you guys are no longer on my list of podcasts. That’s not to say some day in the future I may follow you again but as of today, the tribe has spoken (the tribe consisting of only me).

    T-Shirt idea
    Can we please have a t-shirt that says “My friend Courtney said we can do this!”?
  • Kate from New Orleans
    Love Matt and Marc
    Best unnecessary podcast ever.
  • Becky...yes that one.
    Once you mall walk, you can’t stop.
    I started listening out of curiosity, and as a former weird mall kid. I stayed for the banter, Star Wars references, and escalator songs. After bingeing a bunch of the PSR back catalogue, so much more makes sense, and makes me laugh harder. Please go to another actual massage place. I was dying as you attempted to talk while sounding as if you were being beaten.
  • TheGMF
    Matt Gourley?
    He’s my favorite cool metal guy.
  • peterenlucha
    Just tremendous
    I don’t make time for many podcasts these days, but I sure make time for mallwalkin! Thanks guys!
  • pushnotificationsplease
    What is this?
    It’s almost like Matt and Mark know nothing about basketball. 29 Palms is a great song!
  • BrandonRD
    Wall Mocking
    These guys just have fun banter and the dad jokes are plentiful. Just a good show to listen to on a road trip.
  • mutagenic05
    Make Sona a Regular Guest!
    This is a great podcast to have playing in the background. I find it both relaxing
  • matt_in_enfield
    Feel the Mallwalkin' magic!!!
    Mallwalkin' is the best!! Two awesome dudes talkin all about malls. The perfect podcast!!!
  • EmilyB123
    Stupid good.
    This is both the dumbest and best podcast I have ever listened to.
  • L_JE
    Not quite as good as CONAF
    On the podcast Mount Rushmore though…
  • Beth F 🐞
    Two smart silly friends doing a ridiculous thing that’s awesome
    This podcast is amazing and I love it so much. 🥰
  • JamesMcNally000
    One of the best mallwalking podcasts
    Probably my favorite mall walking podcast at the moment. These guys bring a fresh and humorous angle to the category. If you are a fan of mall walking content, I highly recommend this. If you aren’t seriously into mall walking, probably a lot of the references will go over your head, but there’s still something for everyone here.
  • 76Dano
    The massage
    This is a great podcast and I feel you guys need to end all your shows with a message and skip the chairs.
  • Singapore Sweetheart
    New favorite show
    Why is this my new favorite show? It makes no sense… But I love these guys and their banter so much. Please continue your journey through the malls of America :-)
  • Klingrid
    Yippee for Pistol Shrimps Radio!
    I leapt for joy when Han Ma Boogie told me that a new Pistol Shrimps Radio episode was just dropped! Can’t wait to listen… even though Ingrid is out for the season. Cheers! Han Ma Boogie’s Mamma

    Why do I find everything these knuckleheads do so entertaining? Please keep them coming!
  • zombie_guitarist
    Strangely satisfying
    I don’t know why, but it’s strangely satisfying. A bit of nostalgia as malls are taking a nosedive nationally. Matt and Sona are just amazing and I could listen to them all day long.
  • eliza-d-m
    SoCal nostalgia
    I never dreamed l would enjoy a podcast about malls. Part cultural criticism, part buddy interview, part nostalgia, and lots of geek.
  • Sprinkles11
    Absolutely ADORE Mallwalkin'
    A walk down memory lane with the ultimate tour guides! You feel like you are there with them, and it’s just such a lovely little adventure. Please make as many as possible!

    mallwAlkin’ by piStol shriMps Radio
    This is the greatest thing that ever happened!
  • cagey_01
    Mallwalkin’!
    Can someone please explain why this pod is so entertaining?? I came for Matt (i didn’t know Pistol Shrimp existed until now) and stayed for Matt and Mark’s banter. I heard Matt mention it on Conan’s pod and thought about checking it out, but it wasn’t until The Guardian’s rec that I finally took a listen. It’s inexplicably entertaining. Can’t wait until I catch up to the Sona eps. PS, L’occitane is “lowk-see-tahn” :-)
  • fyl t.
    You made a mistake
    Adding Sona was a poor decision.
  • Cosbraeden
    Legendary
    this is THE BEST women’s basketball, miniature golf, Virgin training video, mall walkin’ podcast to ever grace the ears of humanity. Matt Gourley is a giant among men, and the other guy is also on it!
  • Francois Simmons
    A podcast to grow old with
    I hope they read ebay listings of M.A.S.K. toys next.
  • Sitongz
    We want SONA!!!!
    Please make Sona a permanent part of this! She makes it magical! Honestly she makes everything infinitely better and special 😊
  • JamBoy069
    Sofa King Entertaining
    Stroll along with the Mallwalkers. I would enjoy an episode that included local MW’s spilling a little tea. 👍
  • TheFakeHuman
    What the?
    I’m absolutely riveted. Fake Runts, returns, window displays, followed by mall cops, stores of yesteryear and their empty replacements. The mall. It not your 1980s fun factory and I can’t find the Orange Julius Stand in the food court but this pod is close enough.
  • humboldtnorm
    Why? Why not?
    I am a fan of Matt(and Sona) from that other show. I say Sona has to be a permanent part of this. She brings the magic. Much better with her I enjoy it when I’m walking around the forest
  • wolffarmer
    Matt vs Jordan the Star Wars battle!!
    Another great episode! So much fun and relaxing to listen to. And Sona adds lots to the dynamic. I really want another podcast where Matt and Jordan do a Star Wars knowledge battle.
  • KimBurlyC
    Here for it
    I mean I love Conan.. but this.. it makes me so happy. Please make more. I love this so much.
