Listen Later

Salty Goddess Anne Margaret Perry takes you on a journey from Victorian dinner tables to modern-day Facebook flame wars. Once upon a time, politics, religion, and money were off-limits for polite company. Now? We’re practically ready to throw hands over a meme. It's time to retire the fucking etiquette peasantry.

In this unapologetically audacious episode, Anne Margaret breaks down:

  • Why etiquette once banned divisive topics, and what that meant for social harmony.

  • How America’s pendulum swing took us from silence to screaming.

  • The rise of “color commentator” newscasters and corporate-driven spin.

  • Why civility is NOT complicity, and silence isn’t the answer either.

  • The case for micro-courtesies: holding doors, saying thank you, listening before attacking.

    This isn’t about sugarcoating or silencing, it’s about reclaiming the lost art of civil disagreement without nuking friendships, dinner parties, or society itself.

    If you’re tired of the chaos, craving common courtesy, and ready to chase character instead of clout, this is your guilty-pleasure wake-up call.
