“Do unto others as you would have them do unto you” Matthew 7:12
Let’s face it, the Kardashians aren’t famous for their winning personalities, and their millions of followers aren’t subscribed to see if Kris Jenner has taught all her children the correct table manners (although, seeing Kendall handle that knife was quite concerning).

Join Jodie and our guest Margaux Parker as we discuss all things online etiquette, from the art of the perfect unfollow, airbrushing and what this projection of “perfection” is really saying to our kids.

“Good Manners, Dress Well and do Everything Properly” - Dick Reynolds
We’re all guilty of doing something we shouldn’t have, and in that same vein, we’ve also all watched numerous sporting scandals play out like they’re Oscar Nominated Films. But, in the midst of these controversies, are we at fault for judging? Or is the subject’s poor decision-making to blame? If we’re all trying our best to use good manners and be polite, who is really at fault? While bad behaviour is not a new phenomenon, why is it so pertinent in the current media landscape (and often more talked about than the game itself)?

And what’s the difference between having a good style and following the trends?

Join Jodie and Damien Anthony Rossi as we discuss etiquette superpowers, masculinity in manners and the other “C word”.
Are people born good? Or do they have goodness thrust upon them? Whilst we tend to not wake up in the morning with the goal to be rude to people, some of us are guilty of ghosting that one person you don’t want to speak to at the supermarket... Whilst we can assume that the majority of us are trying our best to be polite, what about chivalry? As society’s understanding of Gender expands, is there still a place for chivalry in a post #metoo world? Or is it well and truly dead?

Join Jodie and Cynthia Morton as we discuss the need for humanity above etiquette and decide whether there are times when rudeness is acceptable. When we know that so much of what was expected of women in the 40’s and 50’s was to “smile” and “be polite.” we ask the question, is that robotic behaviour? And how much of our society's attempt at “people pleasing” is actually pleasing people?
Today’s episode of What Would June Dally Watkins do reflects on the day when Grace Tame broke the internet - not with a scandal, but with a scowl. If it’s true that hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, why was she vilified by the press? Today’s guest, Cynthia Morton, an Australian of the Year Award winner and nationally award winning writer, dissects the effect of trauma on politeness and the importance of being kind to yourself first.

Join Jodie and Lisa Clifford as we unpack the need for universal kindness and patience. Good manners and etiquette are universal. Or are they? With frequent cross-continental travel, increasing awareness of different cultures and our ability to talk to anyone at any time - are good manners still a unifying force? Or are they isolating us from different cultures?
In this episode of What Would June Dally Watkins Do? We are joined by Lisa Clifford, a celebrated writer and journalist and June Dally Watkins’ daughter. Today, Lisa talks to us about Miss Dally’s early life, how her humble beginnings formed her determination to teach etiquette to women from all walks of life, and how her ambition saw her leave behind a romance with famous actor Gregory Peck to return to Australia to start her Personal Development school. Touching on the “stigma” of being a “Dally’s Girl”, Lisa also takes us through what it was like to grow up with such a highly respected mother and what Miss Dally’s key message to young people would be today (besides moisturising your elbows of course!).
