Manners, Motherf*cker: Why Politeness Still Slaps in 2025

This week on The Salty Goddess Podcast, we’re taking a hard look at one of society’s most aggressive diseases—rampant, unapologetic peasantry. And no, we’re not talking about your bank account. We’re talking about the real currency: manners, common sense, and basic human decency. Anne Margaret Perry sets the record straight on what “peasant” really means in her world—and spoiler alert: it’s got nothing to do with your income and everything to do with the way you behave. From chewing with your mouth open to speaking to service workers like they’re beneath you, this episode is your not-so-gentle reminder that etiquette still matters. 📌 Expect: Rants on rude restaurant behavior A revival of handwritten thank-you notes A rallying cry for parents to teach kids not to act like feral goblins And why being “polished” is NOT the same as being pretentious If you’ve ever rolled your eyes at the word ”etiquette” or caught yourself rage-blinking at someone in a restaurant—this one’s for you. Don’t be a peasant. Be a goddess. 🎧 Listen, laugh, learn—and for the love of all that is holy, use a napkin.
