Maybe it's just that you don't know how to use social courtesy.

Oh, that's old-fashioned.

Watch how Lizzie Post and...

...act as host and hostess.

They know that courtesy means showing respect, thinking of the other person,

real friendliness. Hello! And welcome to awesome etiquette, where we explore modern etiquette

through the lens of consideration, respect, and honesty. On today's show, we take on your questions

on kicking your guests out, vegan wedding receptions, whether

or not to cancel a party, a guest who's frustrated with bad invites, and offering condolences

upon meeting someone for the first time. All that, plus your feedback, a salute, and a

postscript segment on Housewarming Etiquette, coming up.

Awesome Etiquette comes to you from the studios of Vermont Public Radio and is proud to be part of the Infinite Guest Network from American Public Media. I'm Lizzie Post. And I'm Dan Post Sending and were from the Emily Post Institute. I witnessed something so egregious. I've never seen it before. That bad. It was that bad. Do tell.

All right. So my buddy was playing at nectar this weekend.

Okay.

So I've got to jump in.

Okay.

Jump in.

Nectors famous.

Just for the record, that's Dan interrupting me for everybody who's counting because I'm

always interrupting Dan.

All right.

Well, I'm excited.
