September 29, 2020 49 - How Often Should I Wash My Sheets with Clarissa Ward
Wait a minute. There's no way you're ready for this. Clearly we've risen to a level of quality you can't handle. For this week's episode, we put on our newscaster hair and brushed up on world affairs as we welcome CNN Chief International Correspondent Clarissa Ward to The Carriage House! Her new book, ON ALL FRONTS, covers her life on the front lines of today's power centers and hot zones. Clarissa takes a break from her very important work to help us answer questions on what to do with your bridal shower gifts if your engagement is called off, what skincare products are good at addressing prolonged mask wearing, going back to your old job if you hate your new one, and how often to clean your linens and towels.
If you read our Instagram post this past weekend (and, really, as a listener, you should already be subscribed) then you know the good news: we're officially VERIFIED!! Which means you're also verified! This is a collective win for The Carriage House, and we can't thank you enough.
Three words: Ask Ronna Coffee. The perfect vessel to drink it in? Three more words: Kiss Kiss Mug. They're both flying off the shelves. Get the former at askronnacoffee.com (subscribe and save $3 per bag!) and get the latter at podswag.com/askronna while supplies last.

September 22, 2020 48 - Little Miss Little Compton Returns with Arden Myrin
Ronna's got her coffee. (Bryan)'s got his Crystal Light (and vodka?). We're ready to go! After a thorough rundown of Catherine Zeta-Jones' insane backyard hat dance on Instagram, we welcome back our first "repeat customer" to The Carriage House, actress and comedian Arden Myrin! In addition to her podcast WILL YOU ACCEPT THIS ROSE?, she also has a new book called LITTLE MISS LITTLE COMPTON that is an absolutely delightful read! Arden helps us answer questions about navigating the line between self care and self pity after a bad break-up, what to do when you're continuously overpaid at work, and getting something fun and unique for your house as a first time home owner.
The wait. Is. Over. AS SEEN IN THE CARRIAGE HOUSE, it's the Kiss Kiss Mug! The IDEAL drinking vessel for your Ask Ronna Coffee, or any other beverage, excuse me. Sip from this gorgeous mug while you listen to the podcast, curl your hands around it while you enjoy a good gossip, or swirl your beverage as you plot your next revenge. You’ll look fabulous doing it. Available for a limited time only at podswag.com/askronna
And be sure to follow us on Instagram! That elusive blue checkmark is getting closer and closer by the day.

September 15, 2020 47 - The Cats in the Hats with Edd Kimber
Now, wait a minute. How excited are we about today's guest? Ronna is popping out of her chair and (Bryan) is a pitter patter. We're so thrilled to welcome expert baker, season one champion of the GREAT BRITISH BAKE OFF, and author of the new cookbook ONE TIN BAKES, Edd Kimber! After some light banter about parallel parking and the differences between Darwinian and Lamarckian evolution, Edd joins us to give advice on what to do when your boyfriend's demanding job begins to get in the way of your relationship, how to celebrate your 30th birthday in style during a pandemic, and how to delicately tell your boyfriend that his artwork doesn't belong on your walls.
(Bryan) is giving us "lobster eyes," which must mean that he wants us to get our very own Harry's Home-Delivered Lobsters t-shirt! Business is booming, so get yours at teepublic.com/stores/askronna

September 08, 2020 46 - I Have a Meat Thermometer for You with Langston Kerman
We're back from our holiday in the Vineyard, and we dive right in with a red pepper PSA (don't you dare ruin Ronna's quiche). Then we welcome actor and comedian Langston Kerman to The Carriage House! You know him from INSECURE on HBO, his stand-up specials, and his new hit podcast MY MOMMA TOLD ME. Langston helps us answer questions about dealing with family members who believe in QAnon conspiracy theories, the challenges of a May/December romance, and what the best meat thermometers are. Helpful tip: don't ask to see (Bryan)'s meat thermometer.

September 01, 2020 45 - Classic Cliffhangers: Carnal Knowledge
Here we are with ANOTHER Carriage House first. Free Feed listeners know that we read a cliffhanger at the end of each episode to be answered on that week's Patreon show. Now, for the first time ever, we're releasing some of our most outrageous cliffhanger questions and answers to the Free Feed! Talk about Free Feed Behavior, excuse me. For our first volume of Classic Cliffhangers, we're really earning our "'E' for explicit" rating (though Ronna might not be very pleased with the staff that compiled it all). It's "Carnal Knowledge," and these are the most hot under the collar questions we've ever received, including the dilemma of the molested minister, the massage table mishap, the STI Guy, and, maybe our most risqué question ever, the saga of the SLUTZ.
As if you needed more proof that you're missing out every Friday, this is it! Come join us in the Carriage House on Patreon! Just five bucks gets you Carriage House access, and ten gets you SAUNA PRIVILEGES, which includes video, Bryan's Body Parts, and the "Ronna Reads" series. New episodes every Friday!

August 25, 2020 44. What Would It Take For Me To Get In Your Tub with Kristian Bruun
Pour your coffee and put on your tap shoes and short shorts, because we've got a lot to cover in The Carriage House this week! After a follow-up from the (regional) flight attendant with the worst grandma and another from the confused friend with the flaky acquaintance, we welcome, “Ready or Not," Kristian Bruun to the podcast! You know him from "Orphan Black" and the show "Carter" on IMDb TV. Kristian is here to help us answer questions about taking time off to get perspective on a very complicated relationship, how to deal with a flaky but possibly vengeful landscaper, how to ask someone you barely know if you can use their gorgeous marble bathtub, and how to talk to girls when you're a ten year old boy...who also happens to be Ronna's nephew.
If you're not following @AskRonna on social media, first of all, how dare you? Secondly, follow us! Help Ronna get that blue checkmark.

August 18, 2020 43. Thank You for Calling Gap Kids with Sasheer Zamata
(Bryan) may be a bit under the weather today, but it's nothing a little Tylenol and red wine can't handle (though Yadvina is standing by with the neti pot, just in case). Once (Bryan) is breathing easy, it's on to an absolutely delightful time in The Carriage House! This week we welcome SNL alum and star of SPREE and the upcoming WOKE (with Lamorne Morris, excuse me) Sasheer Zamata! Sasheer helps us give out advice on whether to buy an Airstream Travel Trailer, how to navigate the complexities of a good friend’s role in your wedding party, and what to do with a very personal message from a friend's family member...two years after it was written.
It seems Harry the Lobsterman isn't selling many lobsters these days...or any lobsters, for that matter. But he's staying flexible, and he's willing to adapt while he keeps his eye on the prize. So he's now in the t-shirt business…with an eye to the lobster business! Visit teepublic.com/stores/askronna to see the wide selection of t-shirts on offer. Get yours today and help a man realize his dream of home-delivered lobsters around the world...or at least the Marblehead metro area.
Unlike Harry's Lobsters, Ask Ronna Coffee is a huge hit! And now all shipments come with a little added bonus of Ronna's Kiss Kiss stickers. They're adorable! Get your subscription today at askronnacoffee.com and save $3 per bag, and, of course, shipping is always free on domestic coffee orders.

August 11, 2020 42. Tigger The Asshole Cat with Jon Gabrus
What a week it's been! As we nurse our hangovers from all your boozy COVID Kiki recommendations, we can't thank you enough for making it such a success! We loved hearing from all of you, whether it was about whiskey or dessert or books or Chilly Witches (keep those coming, by the way!). But now it's time to clean up the mess in the Carriage House and welcome actor, comedian, and prolific podcast host Jon Gabrus! Jon helps us give advice on how to handle a sister who's struggling with mental illness, what to do when an opinionated friend disapproves of your relationship, and how to stop the waking terror that is Tigger the Asshole Cat.
PLUS, join us this Friday on Patreon when Jon Gabrus becomes our VERY FIRST guest to crossover from the free feed to Patreon! He’ll put his “Action Boyz” skills to work, and help us discuss this week's Quarantine International Film Festival (QUIFF) summer blockbusters JAWS and TERMINATOR 2! Just $5 a month, and $10 gets you SAUNA PRIVILEGES aka access to the video podcast! $2 from every Sauna Privileges membership will once again go to World Central Kitchen, who are helping to feed people and aid workers devastated by the explosion in Beirut.

August 04, 2020 40. It's a COVID Kiki!
Now wait a minute...you've heard us teasing it, you've seen the poster, and now it's here: the COVID Kiki! Sit back, relax with a nice cup of coffee (you know where to get it), or maybe even a Stone-fruit Sangria, and let us share all our ideas with you for getting through quarantine with a level of luxury that only Ronna Glickman (& Bryan) can provide. We'll cover it all, from daily rituals to recipes to accessories to home-delivered lobsters...and everything in between. And be sure to listen carefully and follow us on IG, as we have some AMAZING giveaways that we're sending to a few lucky (and attentive) listeners. Kiki? Oui oui!
As if that wasn't enough, excuse me, we're doing something we've NEVER done before...we're releasing video of the ENTIRE episode for FREE on our YouTube channel! If you want to see what Ronna (& Bryan) are recommending for the COVID Kiki, go to youtube.com/askronna and indulge!
And be sure to follow us on Instagram. Not only will you get great content, but you'll also help Ronna obtain that elusive blue checkmark! 💋💋
