Back Row 561 – 564 | The New Etiquette Rules of 2023 (Week 1)

SHOW NOTES

The New York Times published a near-200 rule-deep Etiquette Guide for 2023, updating classic social rules in several areas. Here, Radio Matt & Mo go through the “Friends & Lovers” section and the “Strangers & Others” section to see if they agree with them or have a better idea. Plus, lots of other games, weird news, and hilarious shenanigans.

The Back Row Morning Show is recording live in advance on LoveThyNerd.com/Twitch Saturdays at 9am Eastern. Be sure to check us out while we are recording and be a part of creating the show in real-time! This is also the place to be if you are into bonus stories and extra content!
