Ask Ronna

Now wait a minute. How lucky are we to have nabbed one of our favorite people in all of showbiz to join us in The Carriage House this week? We're THRILLED to welcome none other than actor Tony Hale! You know him from his legendary work on VEEP and ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT, and he joins us from Rome this week where he's filming a Netflix adaptation of the classic Italian collection of stories THE DECAM...

Now wait a minute. Ronna's got a bone to pick...and yes, (Bryan), she's going to start the show like this. After a short tirade on the old fashionedness of the Today Show, we get to this week's incredible guest. BROOKLYN NINE-NINE, ever heard of it? THE STATE and RENO 911, ever heard of 'em? This guy's a get, and we're thrilled to have him. It's Joe Lo Truglio! And now he can add "director" to his...

Now wait a minute. Ronna was suffering from a migraine earlier this week and had to reschedule the recording of the show. Unfortunately, (Bryan) couldn't make it. Fortunately, the lovely Adam O'Byrne, producer extraordinaire, could! Unfortunately, he's being very short and bossy with Ronna. Fortunately, she still loves the old fool anyway. Fantastic Adam joins us to give advice on breaking news to...

Look, Ronna refuses to be yelled at and made to feel guilty about living a fabulous life. Is she coming at us this week from the Ham Yard Hotel in London? Yes. Is (Bryan) insanely jealous? Of course. But do we have a fabulous guest to help ease his pain? You better believe it, excuse me. Joining us in The Carriage House is critically acclaimed comedian, author, actor, and close friend of Scarlett...

Now wait a minute. It's finally happening. We've taken far too long to get this absolute icon on the show, and it's the crossover episode you've all been waiting for, pardon me. Joining us in The Carriage House is none other than writer, director, comedian, communications minor and (Bryan)'s co-host on ATTITUDES, Erin Gibson!  Erin joins us to give advice on a new relationship that might not be as...

Two things to start: a) (Bryan) has no business looking as good as he does today and b) Ronna came down with a case of COVID after visiting a Czech zoo. As unfortunate as the latter is, Ronna couldn't possibly miss this week's fabulous guests and she's happy to battle through the sniffles to chat with these two gems. Joining us in The Carriage House are the hosts of the hilarious podcast ADULTING,...

Look, we don't know where (Bryan) ran off to. Some say he booked a nice job on TV, others say he's still miffed that Ronna didn't invite him to go to Bavaria with her. But in any event, we found the perfect co-host. Joining us in The Carriage House this week is our dear friend, author, activist, and now in-demand Hollywood writer herself, pardon me, Scarlett Curtis! Scarlett helps Ronna give advic...

Now wait a minute. Who's this person on Ronna's screen? Is it...(Bryan)? He looks so different...and dapper, pardon me. Moustache rides for everyone! It's a Carriage House Catch-Up this week as Ronna (& Bryan) get some follow-ups from the "From Israel With Love" writer, the Anxious Doormat with hundreds of dollars of cord damage, and the woman who was less than thrilled about her sister-in-law's g...

Now wait a minute. Ronna's being a little sneaky, but she can't help it. She's thrilled to be able to share a little taste of a brand new and absolutely hysterical podcast called NO AUTOGRAPHS PLEASE, hosted by none other than Arden Myrin and Bryan Safi (ever heard of 'em?). Join them as they talk hot pop culture gossip, world travel tips (like what the best city dump in the country is) and the cr...

Ronna's not here this week, and (Bryan) couldn't be happier...but PLEASE don't tell Ronna, and cross your fingers that she doesn't listen to the episode. Luckily, we've got a guest host this week who couldn't be more delightful if he tried. There aren't enough hyphens in the world to describe this multi-talented man! It's actor, comedian, writer, and director Drew Droege! Be sure to listen to Drew...

Now wait a minute. (Bryan) was kicked out of his hotel in Prague. He doesn't really want to talk about it, even though Ronna is highly amused by the whole thing ("and now we close the circle, Mr. Safi"). But if there's one person who can change (Bryan)'s mood for the better, it's this week's guest. We're thrilled to be joined by comedian and entertainer extraordinaire Michelle Collins! Be sure to...

Now wait a minute. We put out the Bat Signal, and you responded in a BIG way, pardon me. Our inbox lit up with questions for this week's guest, and we're diving right in. We're thrilled to welcome one of the best organizers and declutterers in the country, Tracy McCubbin! Her book, MAKING SPACE, CLUTTER FREE, is available now, and her website is full of useful information about her at dclutterfly....

Now wait a minute. We've got one of Ronna's favorite people in the world in The Carriage House this week, and we've got to bring him on without delay, pardon me. Joining us this week is none other than the co-creator of one of Ronna (& Bryan)'s favorite shows, SEARCH PARTY, Charles Rogers! Charles helps us give advice on a tough break-up, a complicated sister relationship, and a friend with a seri...

Now wait a minute. Ronna's getting settled in Prague and told (Bryan) and this week's guest that she'd join them soon...but she's not coming. Is it all a plot to get (Bryan) and the guest to finally bury the hatchet? It may be! Joining (Bryan) in The Carriage House this week is none other than our dear, dear friend and talent Naomi Ekperigin! Naomi (& Bryan) give some advice on dating a friend of...

Now wait a minute. We've got another repeat customer in The Carriage House, and we couldn't possibly be more delighted that he's here. Joining us is none other than figure skating champion, Olympic medalist, and now podcast host, pardon me, Adam Rippon! Check out Adam's podcast NORMALIZE THIS with co-host Danielle Young. Adam joins us to give advice on dealing with a bratty mother and navigating a...

Now wait a minute. If you joined us at the Lonely Hearts Live Show this past Sunday, you already know how much we LOVE Valentine's Day. This week, along with a Carriage House Catch-Up, we thought it would be fun to revisit some of our classic love related cliffhangers from Patreons past. In this installment, we look back on Derek the "masc tormentor," the Danny/Gennaro/Tony Grindr ménage-à-trois,...

It's a classic Carriage House Catch-Up this week with Ronna (& Bryan). (Bryan)'s getting over a cold and the only thing that can help, apparently, is $500 cash, though Dr. Glickman has a second opinion on that particular treatment. But these amazing questions could also cure what ails you! This week we give advice on a very long but meaningful affair, a psychic guilt trip from Australia, and deali...

Now wait a minute. There's a reason (Bryan)'s screaming "hip hip hooray" at the top of his lungs. We've got a repeat customer this week. When we first met him a couple of years ago we knew he'd be big, but we didn't know just how big, pardon me. This guy is a real bopper. We're so happy to welcome back to The Carriage House none other than TV star, dancer extraordinaire, and the King of Peloton Co...

Now wait a minute. It's not everyday we have a national treasure in The Carriage House, but you better believe we do this week, pardon me. After a quick style guide addendum from Naomi Ekperigin (which you better commit it to memory, honey), we're joined by none other than author, actor, and all around fabulous man John Hodgman! You can catch John on tour beginning this weekend, excuse me, with a...

We're back! It's a new year and a new season here in The Carriage House, and we're raring (roaring?) to go. And, really, could we have asked for a more fun guest to start the year, excuse me? Joining us this week is the co-host of one of our favorite podcasts, BITCH SESH. It's Danielle Schneider! After some Real Housewives chat (obviously), Danielle helps us give advice on a long distance relation...

Now wait a minute. We've got one more week off until we return with all new episodes on January 17th, but we've got a special treat for you this week. It's another "feed drop," this time from the fabulous new podcast from Reboot, THE JEWISH BIZARRE. Dig into bloody murders, rioting mothers, anarchist parties, and pseudoscience; everything you never learned in Hebrew school and that your rabbi stil...

Yes. we're still on break for another week, but we've got a New Years treat for you! As you may know, our dear, dear friends Kulap Vilaysack and SuChin Pak host their own podcast ADD TO CART, and if you're not listening to this show, we don't know what to tell you. It's fabulous, and we wanted to do a "feed drop," as the podcast industry calls it, pardon me, to share one particular episode with yo...

We know, we know. We said we were taking a holiday break from the Free Feed...but we wanted to give you a little taste of what you're missing over on Patreon. As a post-holiday treat, here's last week's Patreon episode for you to enjoy. And if you're missing us during our Free Feed break, there's NEVER been a better time to join us on Patreon. We've got ALL NEW EPISODES EVERY FRIDAY...even during...

We did it! It's our 150th Episode, if you can believe it. We can't tell you how grateful we are to still be a part of your lives after all this time, and we'll be here for 150 more episodes...or until (Bryan) breaks out of The Carriage House like the Kool-Aid Man. After some quick follow-ups, including one from over 2 years ago, pardon me, we give advice on avoiding making comparisons to others wh...
