Hey, everyone, it's Audie, and we've actually been hard at work on a new season of the assignment,

and we'll have new episodes for you on March 23rd.

In the meantime, we wanted to share one more special episode from another podcast that we enjoy

and that we think you will too. It's called Story of the Week with journalist Joel Stein.

Now, each week, Joel chooses a long-form article that fascinates him and then convinces the writer

to tell him all about it.

It's a wonderful deep dive into long-form journalism that not all of us have the time to read.

Now, this episode is one of our favorites.

Joel interviews Corey Sika, who edited a New York Magazine cover story on the, quote,

New Rules of Etiquette.

You might remember it went viral a few weeks back in February.

So from tipping to canceling plans, Joel and Corey chat through some of the almost 200

do's and don'ts that will supposedly help us be better behaved in modern society.

Okay, here's the episode, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. You can hear Joel in conversation with more journalists on Story of the Week from our friends at Pushkin Industries.

New episodes are out every Thursday, available where you get your podcast.

And as for the assignment, we'll be back soon with more conversations with people who live the headlines.

Until then, thank you for listening.
