Wait a minute. Is it really him? It is! He's back! After his fabulous trip to England and Scotland, (Bryan) is back for a Carriage House Catch-up for the ages. And when we say "catch-up," we mean it, excuse me. We get so excited to chat that we literally set off the fire alarm. Then it's on to giving advice on a husband's dental issue, a deteriorating relationship with a roommate, a flatulence problem, and, on a more serious note, dealing with a personal loss.

The AR Social Club sign-ups are in full swing! Join what's sure to be the most exclusive club around this summer with gorgeous cocktails and virtual tastings with Ronna (& Bryan) in attendance. Visit arsocialclub.com OR arsocial.club ...they both work!

Now wait a minute. (Bryan) is still galavanting abroad in gorgeous England and Scotland, but have we got a special guest for you this week or what! Joining us in The Carriage House is none other than Nahant, Massachusetts' favorite son Jason Mantzoukas! You know him from literally a million things on TV and in the world of podcasts (HOW DID THIS GET MADE? is a pure delight, excuse me).

Jason joins Ronna to give advice on a very unexpected development in a familial relationship, an upstairs neighbor from Hell, and dealing with working with your ex.

And if you love Jason as much as we do, join us on Patreon on Friday where he'll pull a double-double and act as special guest host once again! patreon.com/askronna

(Bryan) is off on his wanderlust walkabout, which means Ronna is in need of a guest host this week. And who better to join her than the man behind one of her favorite Insta accounts, actor and comedian John Milhiser! You know John from his work with UCB, College Humor, and SNL along with shows like DRAMA CLUB and FOURSOME. And you should do yourselves a favor and follow his IG account today.

John joins Ronna to give advice on setting friendship boundaries, dealing with your boyfriend's family, and what to do when a roommate's significant other insists on bringing his dirty dishes to wash in YOUR kitchen sink. It's enough to make you furious fast!

You'll have to forgive (Bryan) for being a bit out of sorts this week. He chipped his tooth eating lobster salad that was way too creamy, and, to top it all off, he thinks his dentist is much more chic than he is. But, as Ronna insists, the show must go on, and have we got a show for you this week, excuse me. Joining us in The Carriage House is none other than our dear, dear friend Mary Holland! You know Mary from literally every show on television, pardon me, but she's got a new Netflix movie coming out on May 13 called SENIOR YEAR with Rebel Wilson which we can't wait to see!

Mary helps give advice on dealing with an out of control friend of a friend, adding some luxury to a new apartment that had a recent bedbug infestation (yikes!), and uninviting people to a wedding.

Now wait a minute. Any time we have authors in The Carriage House they become INSTANT best-sellers, and we're sure this week will be no different. We are so fortunate to welcome writer, actor, comedian, and our dear, dear friend Jessi Klein! Jessi is having one of the best weeks of her life, pardon me. Not only does she premiere her new show I LOVE THAT FOR YOU this Friday on Showtime, but her new book I'LL SHOW MYSELF OUT comes out TODAY! What an incredible week!

Jessi joins us in The Carriage House to give advice on refusing a widower's unwanted advances, dealing with a friendship on the ropes, and what to do when a hot, hot man has some funky B.O. We end it with what is perhaps the BEST cliffhanger we've ever received. If it's not enough to make you join us on Patreon, we don't know what to tell you.

Now wait a minute. We always joke about how close we are to becoming a legitimate show, but we're long past that. It's already happened, excuse me...especially when we land guests like this. Joining us in The Carriage House this week is our DEAR friend (and Ask Ronna superfan, pardon me) Richard Lawson! Richard is the chief critic for VANITY FAIR (maybe you've heard of it?) and his podcasts LITTLE GOLD MEN and STILL WATCHING are available wherever you get your podcasts.

Superfan Richard joins us for some Gilded Age talk and then helps us give advice on a pair of vacation dramas (one with family, one with friends) as well as giving some ideas for groomsmen activities at a wedding.

Now wait a minute. Ronna has a lot to say this week, and not only because she just learned about Mac OS's Do Not Disturb Function. We're so excited to welcome to The Carriage House none other than writer and comedian Alex Edelman! If you live in New York you've no doubt heard about his SMASH hit Off-Broadway solo show JUST FOR US. It's currently enjoying a sold out run at Soho Playhouse, but, lucky for us, it'll be moving to the Greenwich House Theater starting June 13th for a 6 week limited run! You're crazy if you're in New York and miss a chance to see this show. justforusshow.com

Alex, who's such a fan of Ask Ronna that he's coming to us from quarantine as he recovers from COVID, excuse me, joins us to give advice on accepting your adult children's life choices and dealing with religious differences in a relationship. All in all, a great show!

Now wait a minute. Don't start with Ronna that "oh, boo hoo, there was no Oscar show this year," ok? That'll be back next year. But this week we've got a Hollywood insider in The Carriage House that you wouldn't believe. To help us navigate this rollercoaster of a week in Entertainment we've got none other than Editor-at-Large of Variety Kate Aurthur! A legitimate entertainment journalist, excuse me! After she helps us unpack the Oscars, she lends us a hand in giving advice on friends who are insensitive about a medical issue, an expat's relationship dilemma, and owning a house outside of New York City while still working there. After you hear this episode, you'll want to keep all of our names in your mouth!

It's another Carriage House Catch-Up this week as Ronna (& Bryan) talk everything from parking at the FOX Lot (no Galaxy parking for Ronna, excuse me) to London to Baby Steve's impeccable genes. Then we've got some spectacular follow-ups about the infamous Cathy/Becky Costa Rica trip and the overseas French gendarme lover. And of course we don't forget to give some top notch advice on dressing for a red carpet event and meeting your boyfriend's 18 year old daughter for the first time. It's quintessential Carriage House fun!

We're still impressed with the caliber of guests that we've had in The Carriage House the past few weeks. We can't wait for our dinner date with Sandra Bernhard in New York, but until then, we've got a Carriage House Catch-Up for the ages for you this week! We cover everything from London theatre to sexting to Love Is Blind to Real Housewives and more. Plus we give advice on a friendship that may be falling apart and regaining some perspective after an eventful few years of work and family. Now if only (Bryan) can get his and Ronna's names right...
