Regular listeners know that Steven doesn’t understand why it’s okay for women to laugh at him for being bald when he can’t point out their wide hips, so you can imagine how much he loves it when they start calling him fat. What more do you need in a show about etiquette?
The Manners Cast boys have a question for our listeners about thank you notes.
Music in this show from:
Vegas Hard Rock Shuffle — Charlie Crowe
Only Smile — The Jellybricks
Special — Karmic Brick
Summertime – Brotherlove

Steven,
After listening to the latest show, I find it ironic that you subtracted 5 points from me on last week’s show for not asking people when they were going to lose weight. I request those 5 points back, and I would like an additional 5 points for remaining polite in the face of rudeness. (You should now understand how completely appalling it would have been for me to ask anybody such a question.)
I also subtract 2 points from you for your man boobs.
Good luck in the water (as well as on land),
- Jake =)
P.S. In answer to The Manner’s Cast, I would say a month is a generous amount of time to get thank you notes in order. The sooner, the better, but here in Salt Lake City Utah, it doesn’t seem to be all that expected.

Hi folks - I’m a relatively new listener and have been enjoying the show tremendously. As a new listener I hope you’ll forgive me if my suggestion for dealing with the person who takes candy by the cupful has already been suggested.
As someone who is nonconfrontational probably to a fault, I’d suggest replacing a candy bowl with a home gumball machine. In this way, only a small handful of candy (m&ms, smarties, or similar) would be dispensed and the thief would hopefully be embarrassed to have to keep turning the handle over and over to fill their cup.
