During this HourGLASS episode, Lisa Gache, from Beverly Hills Manners, talks good manners/bad manners when it comes to post divorce and gift giving, dealing appropriately with your ex's family and a couple's mutual friends. Son of divorced parents--one a gift shop owner, the other a Marijuana farmer, Dave Harding, shares his memories and talks about his childhood holiday customs in two different households. He lets the audience in as to which traditions he's kept and those he's discarded. UCLA Sociology professor, Dr. Jessica Collett, talks about trends and changes in family holiday customs over the past few decades and what her studies indicate will take hold in years to come. Comedy maven, Cherie Kerr, founding member of SNL breeding ground's improv/sketch comedy organization, the L.A. Groundlings, and also founder of the similar group, the Orange County Crazies, offers up her sensible changes to familiar holiday song titles, all of which cater to the divorcee.
