Welcome to Dear Prudence.

I'm your prudence, Janay Desmond Harris.

Today, I'll be answering questions from people dealing with unwanted crochet gifts, wedding

dilemmas, and parents who think they're potential school shooters.

Today's episode is really special because here to help me out is former Prudy Danny Levery.

He's a co-founder of The Toast and the author of Text from Jane Eyre, The Mary Sprinter,

and something that may shock and discredit you.

His new book, Dear Prudence, liberating lessons from Slate.com's beloved advice column

just dropped this week.

In it, he recounts his time as Prudy.

So after a short break, we'll discuss Danny's new book, Learn About His Time as Prudy,

and, of course, dive into your questions with two Prudies at your disposal.

Stay tuned.

The evening standard has called it the best comedy series of the decade so far.
