We have a VERY special episode today as we welcome one of our oldest and dearest friends to The Carriage House. He may even expect us to roll out the red carpet, Hollywood star that he is, as this is, technically, his THIRD appearance on Ask Ronna, excuse me. Get ready for the always fabulous Justin Kirk! You know him from WEEDS, ANGELS IN AMERICA, KIDDING, PERRY MASON, and about a million other things. Justin joins us to give advice on what to do when a friend makes inappropriate advances on your boyfriend, financial incompatibility, and leaving a family group chat without offending anyone.
It's a Negronna Summer, and you can't properly enjoy it without your very own bottle (or two). It's the closest thing you'll ever get to a real Negronna outside of Italy, and tax and shipping are included on all domestic orders. And remember that if you buy the 2-pack you'll get your very own Negronna Summer tote to show off your amazing taste in cocktails! negronna.com
This week's giveaway is a gift pack of Ask Ronna Coffee, which, served over ice, makes for a perfect summer treat. Whether it's Carriage House Blend or Shades of Vanilla, get yours at askronnacoffee.com

Summer is officially in full swing. Ronna's 4th of July gala was as good as it's ever been (despite (Bryan) flirting with every man there) and we're sipping Negronnas poolside daily. Life is good! What could make it better? Maybe inviting into The Carriage House our dear friend, and one of the most prominent soccer broadcasters in the US, pardon me, Roger Bennett! You know Roger from his massively successful podcast and NBCSN television show MEN IN BLAZERS as well as his new (and deeply heartfelt) memoir (RE)BORN IN THE USA. Roger joins us to give advice on a roommate overstepping her boundaries, a 44 year old friendship on the rocks, and a new beau who lets his dog sleep in the bed. Roger is a mischief maker, so he (& Bryan) get along famously!
By the way, Roger's book, (RE)BORN IN THE USA, is available at bookshop.org/shop/askronna and https://amzn.to/3Atp3C2
The guests at Ronna's 4th of July gala couldn't have been more impressed with her bottles of Negronna. If you want to bring the same level of taste and luxury to your next summer gathering, order yours today! Remember that tax and shipping are included in the US, and, if you order the 2-pack, you'll get an absolutely fabulous Negronna Summer tote. Visit negronna.com now!
And of course you can still get some Carriage House Blend or Shades of Vanilla (or both, who are we kidding) at askronnacoffee.com to nurse those hangovers after an evening of Negronnas.

Here we are, just the two of us! It's another back-to-basics Carriage House Catch-Up this week, and not a moment too soon. (Bryan)'s in a mood (you'll never guess who the Lobsterman left him for...), but luckily Ronna's here to lift his spirits! After some great follow-ups (we don't know exactly what a Norwegian Forest Cat is, but it sounds scary) we give some advice on being friends with someone who reveals everyone else's deepest, darkest secrets, what to do when you're in love with your mailman, and a wedding gift drama that might not turn out the way you think.

How excited are we that summer is officially here? We can't wait to get to the Vineyard and sip Negronnas all season long. Unfortunately the Lobsterman won't be joining us, as (Bryan) and he have officially ended things, but you know who might join us in his place? This week's guest, the legendary Jason Mantzoukas! You know him from BIG MOUTH, PARKS AND REC, THE GOOD PLACE, and much, much more. He can be seen now in a new movie with Mark Wahlberg, excuse me, called INFINITE on Paramount + AND a new animated series on FOX called HOUSEBROKEN with Lisa Kudrow. Jason joins us to give advice on how to break it to your perfumier friend that their product stinks, what to do when you hate your daughter's fiance, and dating with an age gap.

Now wait a minute. Are we excited or are we excited? Not only do we have a great show and an amazing guest, but we have an announcement so thrilling we can't even contain ourselves. After a quick conversation about the magic of Salonpas™️, we welcome to The Carriage House the absolutely fabulous Caleb Hearon! You know Caleb from his incredible Twitter and IG videos (Variety included him on its "10 Comics to Watch in 2020" list, excuse me) and as a writer for the upcoming BIG MOUTH spin-off, HUMAN RESOURCES. Caleb helps us give advice on Facebook invites, how to talk about addiction recovery, and being a boy from the big city in love with a small town guy.

We have got an absolutely FABULOUS show this week, even if Dante might be trying to sabotage it. After some mind-blowing Hollywood gossip (Ronna is gobsmacked to learn that Tyne and Tim Daly are siblings), we welcome to The Carriage House director, writer, and producer extraordinaire Lucia Aniello! You know her from her work on Comedy Central's BROAD CITY, the movie ROUGH NIGHT, and as the creator of our favorite show on TV right now, HACKS on HBO Max. Lucia helps us give advice on some major bridesmaid drama, cultivating style in your late 30s, and dealing with a particularly frustrating unrequited love.

You'll have to pardon us as we start off this week with a minor crisis. (Bryan) is over-caffeinated it seems, but not even a triple shot of espresso can make us lose sight of what an absolutely spectacular time we're about to have in The Carriage House. We're so happy to welcome the hosts of the delightful DOUGHBOYS podcast, Nick Wiger and Mike Mitchell! If you're a fan of podcasts and you're not a fan of these guys, you don't know what you're doing. Nick and Mike are here to help us give advice on dealing with a boyfriend with a mullet, telling a good friend you're not interested in going to their bachelorette party, and asking for a raise at work.
Don't forget about our Coffee Klatch coming up on June 11th! It'll be a live event just for our subscribers as a little "thank you" for all your support. Not a subscriber? What are you waiting for! You'll save $3 a bag with free shipping and you can cancel at any time.

So...we had an epiphany this week. We felt we needed to get back to basics, and for Ronna (& Bryan) to spend some quality time together on the Free Feed, just the two of them. It's time for a Mental Health Day...an intimate Carriage House Catch-Up to reconnect and refresh. And we've got a catch-up for the ages! Chunky smoothies, slutty summers, Sherman, Zabar's rats, and more. Plus we give advice on mending a rocky relationship between bandmates, a delicate surrogacy issue between friends, and what to do after a shocking (and highly disturbing) discovery about an ex.

There is so much happening in the world right now, but we're DYING to know more about Bill and Melinda Gates' divorce. Who is this former lover that Bill has been spending time with in the Outer Banks? How long has this arrangement been going on? How will it affect their foundation's charitable giving? Enquiring minds! Needless to say, we're giving you a lot to put into your earhole wank bank this week (not our expression, excuse me). And if that weren't enough, we're also delighted to welcome to The Carriage House writer, comedian, and podcast host Jamie Loftus! You know Jamie from her podcast THE BECHDEL CAST and as an Emmy nominated writer for ROBOT CHICKEN, plus her hilarious presence on Twitter! Jamie is here to help us give advice on planning a wedding from two very different perspectives, coping with living alone after a break-up, and a birthday drama brewing in Cabo.
