Have we got a real sweetheart with us this week or what? Joining us in The Carriage House is the absolutely delightful Solomon Georgio!

He's a writer, actor, comedian, and occasional drag queen known for the Netflix series SURVIVAL OF THE THICKEST, the second season of which begins streaming on March 27th!

Solomon joins us to give advice on handling requests related to a job and breaking up with a long time friend.

Ronna Baby and (Bryan) Sweetiekins are back this week with an all new Free Feed, and we've got a Carriage House Catch-Up for the ages, pardon me. After some movie talk (everything from DeNiro in HEAT to Liza in ARTHUR), Ronna (& Bryan) give advice on driving your neighbors insane and how to enjoy your first ever gay cruise. It's a Bostonian grandma cacophony!

If you're not a member of The Carriage House Patreon, you are missing OUT, excuse me. Of course we've got our Oscars Wrap-Up episode, which was a huge hit, but we've got a lot more coming, including a Shades of Vanilla Newsletter that will detail (in pictures!) our time at the Oscars. Ronna's dress fitting at Neiman Marcus, (Bryan)'s burgandy number that stunned on the carpet, and all the behind the scenes gossip you can handle. Join us! patreon.com/askronna

This week we're going WAY back. All the way to our second Patreon episode from February 2020 and our FIRST EVER cliffhanger! It's got everything: sex, love, fidelity, youth, honesty and a dash of denial. Plus, what to do about a sex-crazed partner after abdominal surgery, and how to say thank you after someone comps your Michelin-starred birthday meal. Enjoy this trip down memory lane!

Now wait a minute. We're fresh off our night at the Oscars (yes, we were invited, pardon me), but just when we needed some time to come down off of that high, we were hit with another high from our INCREDIBLE guest this week. We're thrilled to be joined by the lovely Elizabeth Laime!

Elizabeth hosts two amazing podcasts that are must-listens: NOBODY'S LISTENING, RIGHT? and, her newest, NOBODY'S NEWS, a daily show that covers the headlines you may have missed. It's the perfect balm in these troubled times!

Elizabeth helps us give advice to a man who hates being called "Daddy" and a woman struggling to determine which of her kids should inherit her family heirloom ring.

All of Ronna's Hamptons friends are going to kill her out of jealousy because she was able to nab this GET of a guest, excuse me. Joining us in The Carriage House this week is the utterly delightful Mark Feuerstein!

You know Mark from his bazillion TV appearances on shows like ROYAL PAINS, FIRED UP, THE WEST WING, THE BABYSITTER'S CLUB, and many, many more. You can catch him most recently in the movie GUNS AND MOSES and the MGM+ show HOTEL COCAINE.

Mark helps us give advice on a couple of fabulous questions - one on whether or not to buy an extravagant gift for a parent and the other on a break-up with a bestie.

Two things are true about Lonely Hearts Live 2025: it was a ridiculously good time and it's still available to stream right now! Come join the fun with Ronna, (Bryan), Jason Mantzoukas, Naomi Ekperigin, and all the songs, advice, and giant fortune cookies you can handle. Go to askronnalive.com for details.

And our Spring Fling AR Social Club Kiki is coming up next month! It's an Alpine Spring cocktail this time around, and it'll be a seasonal delight for the senses. Join us at arsocialclub.com

Now wait a minute. We've got a 10/10 (that's 100% for all of you quick math types) guest this week. Joining us in The Carriage House is our dear friend Chelsea Devantez!

Chelsea is an Emmy-nominated writer, pardon me, as well as the host of the fabulous pop culture podcast GLAMOROUS TRASH. And her debut memoir, I SHOULDN'T BE TELLING YOU THIS (BUT I'M GOING TO ANYWAY), is a must read.

Chelsea joins us to give advice on two GREAT questions - one about a dog walker who finds something unexpected and the other about a not so suave kisser.

We had a BLAST at Lonely Hearts Live this past weekend! The music. The games. The giant fortune cookies. Jason Mantzoukas. NAOMI. Thanks to all who joined us. If you weren't able to join us on the day, you can still stream the show! Go to askronnalive.com to stream to your heart's content! 

And if that wasn't enough, we've got an AR Social Club coming up that will be one for the books; think 'alpine spring.' It'll be a fabulous event as always, and you're invited! Go to arsocialclub.com before March 1 to get your box and an invitation to the Kiki.

Now wait a minute. We've had hundreds of stars on this show before, but none who were LITERAL stars thanks to recent developments. We're THRILLED to welcome back comedian, podcast host, and current contestant on DANCING WITH THE STARS IRELAND Gearóid Farrelly!

Of course you know Gearóid from his many appearances with us and his hilarious stand-up shows, but he's also host of the podcast AGONY RANTS along with Niamh Kavanaugh. And if you're in Ireland, make sure you're watching and voting for him on Dancing With The Stars!

Gearóid joins us to give advice on remodeling a primary bedroom and bathroom and whether or not a Friday wedding is considered gauche.

Now wait a minute. It's a Carriage House Catch-Up this week, and there aren't any rim jobs, ram jobs, or Rahm jobs for that matter. We've got two very fun letters to answer where we give advice on asking out a newly out friend and traveling internationally in a large group. It's more fun than doing hot yoga in thin pants!

As we've been saying this past week, our hearts go out to those affected by the wildfires in Los Angeles. Our dear (Bryan) left to be with family this past week. He's totally safe and sound, but this means that he's not with us in The Carriage House this week. But we've got a VERY special guest host in his place, pardon me. It's none other than our dear friend Justin Kirk!

Justin joins Ronna to give advice on dealing with trust issues with a partner and whether or not to reconnect with a previously cut-off old friend who's now having serious health issues. 

Of all our live shows, the one that's really the highlight of each year is our Valentine's Lonely Hearts Live extravaganza. And in 2025 you better believe it'll be back and better than ever! Join us on Sunday February 16 at 7pm ET / 4pm PT for the festivities. More details to follow (guests, games, giveaways, and more). You can reserve tickets at askronnalive.com
