50 Things Every Young Gentleman Should K...

The VOU Official
About this episode

In today's podcast we discuss "50 Things Every Young Gentleman Should Know," a guidebook by Bryan Curtis and John Bridges offering etiquette advice for young gentlemen. We'll cover a wide range of topics, from basic politeness (saying "please," "thank you," and "excuse me") to more nuanced social skills (accepting gifts, handling apologies, and introducing friends to parents). We'll also addresses proper behaviour in various settings, such as restaurants, movie theatres, airplanes, online, and much more. It's all about showing proper respect, good manners, and consideration for others in all situations, with explanations of why certain actions are preferred.
