Etiquette is like a set of unwritten rules that guide how we should behave politely in society. It is all about being considerate and showing respect for others, whether by saying "please" and "thank you" or knowing how to act in different social situations. Social etiquette focuses explicitly on how we should behave around other people, like at parties or gatherings.

Sadly, many people these days pay less attention to social etiquette than they used to. Sometimes, even if someone looks nice outside, they might not know how to give others their space or show respect. They are missing the social smarts that help us get along well with others and make life easier for everyone. 

In this episode, Angelika and Michael sit down to chat about some odd behaviors they have noticed that break the rules of polite society. They discuss people who leave public bathrooms a mess, not caring about the next person who needs to use them. They also grumble about people who blast loud music or have loud conversations in places where quiet is expected. They also talk about how annoying it is when someone always tries to one-up others and when people don't respect others' time by being late. 

Tune in to find out how we can all do our part to make the world a nicer place for everyone.
