Listen Later

Etiquette, manners, and beyond! This week, Nick and Leah are enjoying a well-deserved break, but they'll be back soon with an all-new episode. In the meantime, here's one of their favorite episodes from the archives in which they answer listener questions about blasting holiday lights, announcing weddings in holiday cards, reciprocating expensive gifts, and much more. Please follow us! (We'd send you a hand-written thank you note if we could.)

QUESTIONS FROM THE WILDERNESS:

  • What should I do about my neighbor's too-bright holiday display?
  • Is it OK to announce our wedding engagement in our annual holiday card?
  • Should I feel guilty about not being able to reciprocate my wealthy brother's expensive gifts?
  • Should I tell my mother-in-law that she sent a repeat gift?
  • Is there a way to tell my in-laws that we contributed more to a group gift than the others?
