It's Labor Day, and Yadvina has a rare day off...so she's lending you her keys to The Carriage House so you can get a little sneak peek behind the door. This week we go back to March 31st with Patreon 164. Ronna (& Bryan) had such a blast at that past weekend's Social Club Kiki, but (Bryan) was still feeling a bit "provoked," shall we say. But all was smoothed over when Ronna reminded him that he flew one of the best first class products in the skies back to the US courtesy of HER, excuse me...

Now wait a minute. We've got a sherbet sensation of an episode today. We've received so many juicy follow-ups over the past several weeks that we wanted to dedicate an entire episode to them..and we've got a LOT to say!

Now wait a minute. Ronna doesn't know what's more horrifying: that (Bryan) has put ice in his Negroni or that he thinks the title of this episode means something VERY different than what she thinks it means. In any event, have we got some fun in store for you this week or what? It's time for some Classic Cliffhangers, and these cliffhangers really shocked us. First up is Liesel the frog killer, which has been one of the most talked about cliffhangers in Ask Ronna history. Then it's onto the Cana...

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.

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.
