Quick! If your beau crosses a slippery plank before you, should you call off the engagement? If you see your BFF Charlotte in church, can you bow to her? And why is there sit-down service at the mall sushi place? Bethany and Kathleen are FULL of questions today. First, Bethany gives you a pop quiz on Victorian manners, then Kathleen ruminates on her recent shopping mall experience and why it’s causing her to spiral. Cover up those ankles, ladies! Take off your silk hats, gentlemen! It’s time for a new episode of An Acquired Taste!
