My new favorite podcast!
I just heard about Were You Raised by Wolves this week and am now going back to listen to every episode. I cannot get enough; this podcast is so entertaining and educational!

Adorable and lovely!
Thank you for the amazing tips and comedy!

Binge worthy
I am so glad Apple Spotlight featured this show. As soon as I saw the suggestion I wanted to listen. I have been binging for 3 days now. Nick and Leah feel like good friends I can trust with my anxiety of navigating this wild world with grace and dignity. Absolutely fabulous gem of a podcast.

Tell Everyone! Cult Classic!
I’ve told 4 people about this podcast in the last week, I love it! Must have for anyone who wishes to be both kind and clear in how they communicate and show up in the world. Ps. Reply to the wedding invitation with your own stationary, people! Live your truth!

This podcast is the ultimate relief from tension…
I love the focus on the little things (some not so little). I love the attitudes, the banter, the advice! This podcast is such an escape from, well, everything I want to escape from. I love the intelligence applied to the everyday behaviors we all experience and sometimes exhibit. I listen to an episode whenever I want to feel better about the world. It seems that Nick and Leah are actually helping to improve the world in their own way, and I am glad.

Nice escape!
Love! This is a lovely way to stop focusing on politics and depressing news of the day and just enjoy a pleasant and funny conversation about lighter issues. A new favorite for sure.

Absolutely Amazing
I love,love,love this podcast. It teaches me new things, and I feel personally ashamed that I have committed some of the etiquette crimes, and I am shocked about these rules. This podcast is teaching me to be a better person, and I love the witty, quick banter in this show. Thank you Leah and Nick!

Necessary Podcast
I have enjoyed this podcast so much. I’ve learned a lot not just about etiquette but about setting boundaries (Thank you Leah). I have on so many occasions audibly gasped and my mouth held a gap and some of the audacity of the rude behaviors. I will say though that some etiquette is very regional. For instance, waiters in my part of the country (S Louisiana) always ask up front how the checks will be split so I’ve never encountered an issue with having to figure out the proper way to address splitting the bill. That concept is so foreign to me. Anywho…I love this show and I enjoy Nick and Leah very much.

Everyone should subscribe
What a fun and informative podcast! I love hearing the hosts debate and come to agreements on etiquette because I was not raised by wolves but I might have missed some tips on how to behave properly in this world. Thank you!
This is a modern guide/podcast which helps with making everyone feel good about social situations. Great ideas for useful turns of phrases and hosting or understanding how to put people at ease. It's fun, with a positive attitude about the rudest situations.

I feel validated 😅
I’m so thankful to have found this show because of the spotlight!! Yay! I love the cheery, banter filled episodes that are so relevant to actual life situations where people have either been raised by wolves, or are wolves themselves and as a non-wolf, sometimes I’m stumped on how to respond. So, thank you for existing!

So much fun while learning how to do life well
I love how Nick and Leah are engaging and humble enough to talk about their own mistakes. Some of the examples are hysterical, but they use each example to reinforce the principles of why being polite is important and how to use your best judgment to determine what the polite thing is to do. It’s been one of my favorite podcasts throughout the pandemic and makes Monday mornings something to look forward to. Keep up the great work!

Informative and Funny
I love this so much! Just found RBW last spring and plowed through all episodes within 3 weeks. My 12 yr old made fun of me for listening to a “manners show,” but he’s grown to love it and now listens to it while walking home from school. He recently noticed one of his friends was having a zipper malfunction and whispered to him, “your pod bay door is open, Hal” 😂

Fun and educational podcast!
Both hosts are very entertaining, and provide good advice (as well as validate complaints that so many have regarding rude people). I like learning things I didn’t know before (such as “don’t say ‘congratulations’ to a bride) and feeling more prepared for any awkward situation that may arise.

Best of the Best...
Leah & Nick prove that opposites attract... Humor & Knowlege and Common Sense exudes from this very FUN Podcast !!! I am 75 and listen to them in my art studio, adding just the right balance for so much creativity. They are the BEST... don’t miss them. Joan (Athens, Ga)

I am in love with Nick and Leah!
This show is SO delightful. I just marathoned all the episodes and CANNOT WAIT for the next one. More, please!! (I'll write you a hand-written thank you note!) Truly a great show!

Amazing
This is an amazing podcast…it is funny, intelligent, and entertaining. Well done!

Love it!
Absolutely great ! Great to listen to while in the office and always learning how to handle difficult situations!

Fun fun fun in serious world ...with Standards
As an unsocialized floundering offspring of a wolf and a sheep (er wait: maybe a wolf in sheep's clothing?) I deeply appreciate the funny, fun-loving witty minds of the hosts. They keep us engaged and hold us to the highest standards of good behavior and good taste.

not your grandma's etiquette class
being autistic i struggle a lot with social cues and such, but this podcast is just the right mix of informative without being condescending or better-than-thou.

Fun, light and informative
The hosts keep it moving along with a mix of segments. The show is just right, not too long but covering a few different topics. It’s not condensing or snooty but it is honest. The hosts, like all of us, do or say something less than perfect we can learn from and improve on. Give it a listen, you’ll enjoy it.

Hilarious Show
This show is so funny, I can’t stop laughing

Where have you two been all my life?!
This podcast is a perfect storm of awesomeness - funny, educational, and oh-so-needed. I didn’t realize just how many everyday-type questions I had until Nick and Leah answered them. Also, they are self-depreciating, practical, and thoughtful as they think through situations and offer advice, which is so refreshing. And, maybe most importantly, they have validated most (all?) of the annoying human behavior stuff that makes me crazy - no small achievement. Listen, you’ll love it!
You might think a podcast about socially acceptable behavior would be dry, but this show is entertaining and so much fun! Nick and Leah keep it to an ideal predictable length for interesting discussions that don't get bogged down and run on and on. And on. I know how much time I'm committing before I tune in. Plus, you get the pleasure of being shocked by stories of socially feral behaviors. Perfect.

Leah and Nick now live in my head.
This show has made me a better person! I’ve learned so much about proper etiquette through listening, and now whenever I find myself in an etiquette conundrum, I ask myself: what would Leah and Nick do?

Kind and funny
I love Leah and Nick! They are thoughtful and kind, and relate to our etiquette woes with humor and decisiveness. Great show!

Perfect balance of entertaining and informational
My husband and I both love this podcast! We love that it’s fun and conversational but also really informative. Even the niche topics that we will probably never encounter in our own lives are really interesting and fun to learn about. It’s great to have a teacher that tells you when you’re wrong but doesn’t make you feel stupid about it. This is always one of our first recommendations to friends when they ask what podcasts they should try.

Wholesome and funny!
I’ve recently finished listening to the show’s entire backlog and just loved it so much! Not much makes me laugh anymore the way Nick & Leah’s witty repartee does. Such a joy, I’m sad I now have to wait a week between episodes!

This is a Five Star Podcast
I do not understand how this show gets an overall rating of only 4.8. There are a few negative reviews from people who are clearly humorless, and one glowing review from someone who almost certainly mistakenly assigned only 2 stars. This is a 5 star podcast and the vast majority of the reviews are spot on. Nick and Leah are delightful and will make you laugh out loud while teaching you some manners. When someone suggested it to me I thought, yeah sure, I'll listen to one episode to be polite. But I've now binged the entire back catalog and can't wait for each new episode. FIVE STARS, PEOPLE. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Entertaining and Educational!
Leah and Nick entertain and educate with humor and kindness. I know you will love listening!
