Cody finds himself caught up in the Smokers’ mysterious plan for his Jeep, and a conversation with an old friend forces him to confront how—and why—they drifted apart. Meanwhile, Wes may be having the “best night ever,” but his activities have not gone unnoticed by Jessie’s boyfriend.

As Cody looks back on the choices that shaped his friendships, he’s reminded that some connections survive years of silence. Others… don’t. Flash forward twenty years to the present day, and one familiar car makes a surprising return to the mall.

LAST NIGHT AT THE MALL is a Millennial nostalgia fiction podcast about four best friends, one unforgettable night at the mall in 2006, and a mystery that follows them for the next twenty years. New episodes every week.

Jordan and Steph’s argument takes a more serious turn when the future of their relationship comes into question. Cody, partially responsible for the disagreement, now finds himself the third wheel on their road to disaster.

Out in the parking lot, Wes discovers what a full bottle of fortified wine can do. And just when Cody thinks his night can’t get any stranger, the Smokers reappear—with renewed interest in his Jeep.
