  • Episode 5: The Audacity: Rude or Not Rude?
    Apr 3 2026

    Is it rude or are we just being dramatic? Ron is back with another round of his signature rants, and this time he's putting the behavior of guests and couples straight in the hot seat. From the guests who act bored or not show up on time to the couples who make questionable choices — Ron wants answers. He's bringing his unfiltered opinions to the table and asking Molly and Heather to weigh in on whether these real-life wedding moments cross the line or if we need to just let it go. Buckle up, because nothing is off limits and no one is safe from the verdict.
