Hello QDT listeners, In 2023 we are re-launching an old favorite: Modern Manners Guy! We wanted to give our host, Richie Frieman, a moment to re-introduce himself here before the show officially starts in February. "My name is Richie Frieman, a husband, father of two, and as St. Martin's Press has dubbed me, a “Modern Day Renaissance Man” due to a rather unorthodox career. From a life as an author and illustrator of seven books in multiple genres, an artist, screenwriter, cartoonist, and even a champion professional wrestler, I like to think I have seen the world from many unique angles. Outside of the arts, I'm also the Co-Founder/CEO of Brand U Sports, an innovative sports marketing firm. Now, my approach towards etiquette isn't exactly what I could call white glove or 'hoity-toity.' I look at manners as a way of striving on a daily basis to improve how you treat the people around you and doing your best not to be a jerk. Whether it's in the office, family life, or your personal interactions, I'll be addressing things that I have witnessed but also, I'd love to hear what you have seen and thought to yourself, 'I can't believe they actually said that?'" Modern Manners Guy is officially launching in February, but given the complicated nature of holidays and the new year, we've released a special, seasonal, episode about an always stressful event: The Office Holiday Party.
