I can’t say enough how much I love this show. I stumbled upon it early on in its release (pre-pandemic days, wow!) and have been a loyal weekly listener since. As someone who has ADHD/is neurodivergent, some social rules can feel a little bit confusing as they are often unspoken- this podcast has been so lovely for me, as it helps explain *why* we do things a certain way. I love listening to Nick and Leah every Monday. Thank you both for an amazing show that is a wonderful, light, funny listen every week!

This podcast is perfect! I love the way you get useful information but also laugh a lot. Any time I’m in a fowl mood I listen to an episode and I feel better. I love Nick and Leah both so much- they are wonderful together. As a side note- I have actually changed some of my behavior after learning correct etiquette. Please do this podcast forever for the good of the planet.

First of all, I love etiquette, so, of course I love this podcast. However, the last8 months have been the hardest of my life! We’ve lost two family members in that time and there were many sleepless nights in hospital rooms (because I believe no one seriously ill should be alone in a hospital overnight). To ease my racing mind, I thought to use earphones and listen to … something! I subscribe to several podcasts but when it came right down to it: I always listened to Were You Raised By Wolves. I love the subject matter but I NEEDED the tone. It’s like sitting beside your best friends and everything is positive; it made me chuckle; and it really soothed me! Thank you for getting me through really tough sleepless nights! I’ll keep listening in good times too!

This podcast is one of the highlights of my week. Nick's sharp wit and Leah's entertaining humor are the ultimate pair for a magnificent 30 minutes of my day. Big thanks to Nick and Leah for making this world a more polite and kind place. I would highly recommend this podcast to anyone who enjoys happiness, laughter, and anything good in this world. I hope everyone will follow Nick and Leah's example as we quest for world peace.

This podcast is the bright spot to my Mondays. Nick and Leah are the best!

I’m the clean of etiquette. It hurts me that nobody knows how to set a table anymore, do they hold their wine glasses in the wrong hand it cocktail parties, that in this age of viruses they actually want to shake my hand at all without anyone would ask me to takeoff my shoes at a wedding. In Your house, certainly, unless it’s filthy. But not in a public space. This podcast addresses the regular and a weird and I wish I thought of it myself

I’ve learnt so much about culture and people from Nick and Leah. I now have a tonne of material to ‘repent’ (oops!) and an outlet of likeminded folks to ‘rant’ with. Please take this review as my thank you note for a great podcast! Love you guys =D

This is my all-time favorite podcast (and prior to this, I exclusively listened to cooking and true crime podcasts). It is everything you want and more - it’s funny, if’s engaging, it’s helpful, it’s historical, it’s just perfect. Nick and Leah are great hosts and their banter is so fun - I truly look forward to it every Monday. And they advice has come in handy in countless situations. And to top it all off, they really practice what they preach. I submitted a “vent” recently and I received a personal response back - so nice!!If you’re reading this and considering listening, just go listen! You will not regret it!

If you want a fun and relatable podcast to help you navigate our current world, this is for you! Nick and Leah have a great intuition about modern day etiquette and I truly trust their opinions. They also have fun segments I look forward to like Vent or Repent! I love that they do a thorough job structuring each episode with various segments instead of a disorganized, endless conversation that gets off topic. I often find myself talking to them in my car and offering my own interjections, haha!

The hosts bring humor and a fresh take on etiquette on this show. I love their energy, trivia, and fun non-examples. This is an etiquette show that doesn’t take itself too seriously, but still provides helpful advice!

Like the rest have said, informative, funny and helpful! I've learned something from every episode, be it an explanation of how some etiquette's began or how to handle certain situations. But most of all- a reminder on how to co exist and keep things moving along nicely on this planets where sometimes that can be a challenge.

I love their banter, its very entertaining and informative. Thanks for all you both do and continue to do!

I’ve learned so much from these episodes, plus you guys make it so funny! I’ve learned tone is important when being polite. Thank you 🙏🏻

I’ve found answers to so many questions via this podcast.. and the presenters make this fun and interesting to listen to. Thank you!

This show makes me look forward to a day people usually loath. Can’t wait for each new episode every Monday while I walk my 4 miles.

Witty, informative, funny, engaging, and addictive. A balm for the soul, this podcast has it all. Etiquette has never been so entertaining. I binged all of the previous episodes in about 4 days and I impatiently wait for each new episode on Monday. The amuse bouche always teaches me something new, and when I hear the questions from people all over the world, I feel connected to total strangers by our common desire for people to do the right thing and be considerate of others. Nick and Leah have created an online etiquette family that I feel honored to be a part of. I have told everyone I know that they simply MUST listen to "Were You Raised By Wolves?" if they want joy in their lives. "I don't care for this" has become my favorite saying. Every time Leah says "who are these people?" or "what's happening right now!?" I feel like she's in my brain. Thank you, Nick and Leah, for giving me one perfect thing in my life and something wonderful to look forward to every Monday. This podcast is my happy place and Nick and Leah are my people.

Wow! I binged the whole series in about 3 weeks. No one makes etiquette more entertaining or engaging than Nick & Leah

Society seems to be getting out of control ruder. However, for those who want to know how to act properly in various situations, this is undoubtedly the best.

I started listening to WYRBW on a recommendation from another podcast. The title was intriguing and the recommender made it sound fun. And they weren’t wrong! I love listening to these two. They deal in unsavory situations with panache and kindness. Thank you thank you!!

Enjoying this so much! You too are just precious! And as someone who volunteered for a dog/cat rescue for 15 years and fostered many dogs, thank you Leah for adopting!

Enjoying this so much!

…then our world could be a kinder, saner, more joyful place! I have recommended this gem to family and friends. The hosts are delightful and have such a clear- eyed way of analyzing life’s small ( and not so small) dilemmas, and coming to a resolution that takes everyone’s feelings and dignity into consideration. They make it all seem easy! Kinda like Ginger dancing backwards in heels. Bravo and thanks!

Did you ever think etiquette lessons could be fun and entertaining as well as educational? It can! Nick and Leah make them so.

This podcast makes waking up on Mondays easy! The camaraderie between Leah and Nick is palpable and charming. I always laugh and learn! This is truly one of my faves (and I listen to a lot of podcasts)!So happy to have this in my life! 🤓
