Welcome to Awesome Etiquette, where we explore modern etiquette through the lens of consideration, respect and honesty. On today’s show we take your questions on seating people who don’t get along, etiquette for picking someone up for a carpool, blocking off parts of your home during a party, and asking someone to be a godparent. For Awesome Etiquette Sustaining members our question is about reconnecting when you left on a bad note. Plus your most excellent feedback, etiquette salute and a postscript From Margaret Sherwood’s gilded age etiquette book Manner and Social Usages.
