Heather: OK, Grace's turn.
Grace: The best thing about wearing heels is wearing two different socks
while you're wearing your heels.
Grace: I've already... slayed the game.
Rule #17: We don't wear socks with our heels.
Grace: Oh, huh, shoot.
Mamrie: Hello, hello hello!
Hey! I'm Grace.
I'm Mamrie, and today, this might get classy.
We're talking about etiquette.
I'm not known for my manners.
I feel like you and I are just, like, two Roseanne Barrs.
Circa '87. Not the new one.
A lot of people think that I'm gonna have great manners since I'm Southern.
Oh, right, Southern belle.
Débutante, all that jazz.
And I'm like, I'm a redneck.
And I'm just Northern trash.
Really?
I would never think you wouldn't be the classiest of all classys.
I'm a domestic goddess.
I made this sweatshirt a couple years ago, and people felt weird about it.
Let's talk about some etiquette facts.
Let's do it. We have pulled some facts to share with you.
So, Emily Post, who's, like, the queen of manners back in the early 1900s, - OK.
she published her phone number
so that people could call her and ask etiquette questions.
Which is mind-blowing to me because I barely, like, give *you* my phone number.
Right, and she didn't get paid to give advice?
[really high-pitched] No! Free advice!
Sorry.
Yeah, that's pretty insane, 'cause
we didn't start giving advice until YouTube had a
monetization policy.
That's true. And you know what's ironic is that
when someone calls me in the age of texting,
I think that's *rude*!
Saying "Bless you" -- that phrase -- dates back to
590 CE when Pope Gregory I
commanded that anyone who sneezed
immediately be blessed out of fear that it was a sign
they had contracted the plague.
Do you say "Bless you" or "Gesundheit"?
What does "Gesundheit" mean?
Who says "Gesundheit"?
Fun people. [laughs off-camera] - Yeah, Fozzie the bear. The Muppet?
Fun folks who aren't religious.
I think it's about time that you and I start to learn...
I that we're like "It's about time." We're 34 and 32.
Yeah, we want to learn some manners, but
we're not, gonna just study on our own.
We brought in an expert.
We have the classiest woman that we know,
Miss Heather Dubrow is here with us!
Please! [Mamrie squeals]
Grace: Yeah! Mamrie: This is such a treat!
Grace: Thank you so much for being here!
Mamrie: We're so excited to have you.
Thank you so much for having me!
Oh, wow!
So rule #1: Always bring a gift.
[gasp] [gasp] [gasp]
This is so nice, and we didn't bring you anything.
other than exploiting you for our show.
Is it rude or rude not to open the gift
in front of the person giving it?
I love that you even ask that.
You can of course open it. Grace: OK. Mamrie: Oh!
That was a lie!
But, having said that, since for the purposes of our fabulous audience,
they might jst want to see what's in there. Mamrie: OK.
And by the way,
self-promotion is always fun.
Grace: What is it?
A champagne beaut-lift firming body cream. Ooo!
Yes so this from... Sir Terry and I have a line called
Consult Beauty that we sell at evine.
You can find it anywhere, evine.com, Amazon.
And, um, this lifts and tones and tightens
with the magic of champagne.
I love it. I've always wanted to be covered in champagne.
Heather: OK me too.
Now, the other thing I brought is...
[Grace flips out] Wait, did you bring Colette? Did you bring Collette?
I brought you each, a bottle of Colette.
I love that you brought it chilled.
Grace: Oh my god. Mamrie: You are a goddess.
Thank you so much.
Thank you, Heather.
If you don't know, Heather Dubrow is, one, an amazing human being.
Two, entrepreneur, connoisseur of all realms,
and is, like, just fabulous.
You and your husband have how many different entities going on right now?
We have a lot going on.
We have, you know, two podcasts, two YouTube channels.
Four books... I think there's four kids.
I was gonna say, like 19 kids, right?
Yes, yes, 19.
One, you are a master of hosting.
I think you have a lot of
great wealth of knowledge that you can bestow upon us
in terms of, like, we are hosting this show. - Yeah.
But also in terms of being able to host people and parties and events.
What could you give us in that world of knowledge?
Well, like I said, always bring a gift.
I think that's very important.
And if you forget, you say,
"Oh, so lovely to see you!" and you send a follow-up gift.
Oh, see, Grace is really good at forgetting, then
stopping at the gas station and getting scratch-offs [lottery tickets]. - Yeaaah!
Oh. Scratch-offs: not appropriate.
It's an activity!
It is.
What are some other major tips in terms of, like,
organizing parties or hosting a party?
OK, something that's very important --
and this happens more often than not, if you can believe it --
is people arrive late to their own event.
That is so rude.
It's so wrong. It's so rude.
Is it because people want to make an entrance?
Mmm.
Is that it? Or is it just that they're just unaware that
they should be there before the first guest arrives?
I think partially that people don't know how to back-plan. - OK.
To get ready. - OK.
I like to... when I think... because I'm very organized and I have, you know,
the way I get ready.
And I do my own hair and make-up, and I handle my...
You do your own hair and make-up?
I do.
She came in here, her own personal glam squad.
Glam squad of one.
But I back-plan and I make sure I'm ready
an hour before the event.
So that way if anything goes awry,
which it's going to, - Mhm.
you can handle it.
Let's talk about seating arrangements. - Yes!
I think that that's a major thing.
Right, you throw a lot of dinner parties, etc.
They don't always go well, historically, if you've seen anything from my television.
This champagne gets thrown. Into faces, y'all.
My question, 'cause it's really important how you arrange the seats. - Grace: The chemistry of people.
Yes! - Especially when you're having people, who don't like each other
at the same party.
Ohhh yes! It's very, very difficult, and so
I plan and I do it old-school.
You have to take out a piece of paper, and draw a circle, and put little lines,
and see where everyone goes because,
if it's family, you know, you have different politics.
If it's friends or if it's, you know,
cast-mates on a reality show,
You really have to know what is going on.
Did he sleep with her brother's sister's friend's...
That happens at my Thanksgiving constantly. [laughs off-camera]
You have to do your research.
Well, it happens but, you're from the South, so, you know...
You know, no judgement.
No judgement at all. Love is love.
These are all fabulous tips.
I think we have another area that we need some help in,
and that is just general posture and walking.
Right, fake it 'til you make it.
I wanna look classy before they realize I'm not.
Walking in general... Confidence is so important.
So if you walk in the room sort of, like, hunched over with a little shrug,
Mamrie: You look cute, though.
Oh, thank you.
But are you going, "Oh, I really want to work with Heather Dubrow. She looks like..."?
No, of course not.
But if I walk in, and I smile, and I'm confident,
and I have good posture, all of a sudden you say,
"That is a successful human being.
I would like to work with her."
Well I think we would love to get your expertise on our walk.
Let's challenge you. - OK.
The heels are pretty challenging.
See, I remember, back in the '80s,
when they had, like, Barbizon and stuff,
Grace: Oh, yeah.
People would always say, "You gotta practice walking
with a book on your head."
Pour champagne... - What?!
OK, so if I'm walking around the party,
Heather: By the way, the server will be doing this.
Heather: This is just an exercise. Mamrie: OK.
Heather: Very good, very good.
Linda, I don't like to see half a glass empty.
I'm an optimist.
And a little laugh.
[Mamrie laughs]
Oh Leslie she always takes her top off.
Heather: And oh dear, Mike just stood up and
[Grace screams]
Mamrie: Oh, man...
Heather: You have a very thirsty guest, and the server's disappeared, and
Heather: you'll figure that out later.
Oh, no, I'm sorry that all of my servers are gone.
Here's champagne. Get drunk please.
Get drunk, please,
Heather: OK, now Luann has now stood up, and she's in your way trying to get to the restroom.
Countess... former Countess. Please leave, please leave.
Heather: And she needs a curtsy. - OK. [groans]
Heather: So close.
Heather, all of this information has been absolutely wonderful.
Mamrie and I like to do a little bit of a quiz
when we learn something from someone.
To make sure we absorbed it.
Yeah. I think if you ask us some questions
just to see what we've retained from this episode.
OK. I really am very confident that you're both going to do very well.
Are you ready? Mamrie: Yes. Grace: Ready.
If you sneeze, and your friend passes you a handkerchief, what should you do?
[ding] Grace.
Say "Go to hell." [buzzer]
No. - OK.
I would say thank you, and I would use it and say
"I will get this dry-cleaned and returned to you later." [ding]
That was very good.
And by the way, if you have a friend who has a real handkerchief,
that is so fabulous.
They're a psychopath.
If you attend a formal dinner and find a spoon
horizontally placed above your dinner plate,
what is it for? [ding] Grace.
Soup! - No! [buzzer] - [expletive deleted]
Mamrie! Is it for the palate-cleanser sorbet? [buzzer]
No, but I'm just so happy you know that
there's a palate-cleansing sorbet.
It is for dessert.
If you're asked to remove your shoes at your friend's house,
but you typically don't and are uncomfortable doing so,
what should you do? [ding] Mamrie.
Ask for guest slippers. Everyone has them. [ding]
That is so funny.
Do you know, I threw a party in my house when it was [under] construction,
and I had slippers for everyone so they could take off their shoes.
Brilliant.
When you're in a public place,
is it fine to talk loudly on your cell phone?
[ding] Grace.
No, never. [ding]
Right! Yeah!
By the way don't your moms do that?
Mine leaves it on speaker and holds it here.
No, not OK.
We were at the nail salon. She came to visit.
[mockingly] "HI, JUDY. YEAH." On speaker. - On speaker.
How far away should you stand when
introducing yourself to someone? [ding] Mamrie.
Two and a half feet.
[wow this silence is awkward]
[ding]
A body...
A body?
There are various shapes and sizes of bodies!
One full body in between you and the other person.
I think you're both saying the same thing [ding] and I agree.
You need to be sort of at arm's length.
You don't want to be like a [unclear].
No! No!
It's like the teachers used to say at school dances,
leave enough room for the holy ghost.
Thank you so much for being here.
You mentioned that you have a YouTube channel. Two.
I do! - OK, so what are those?
So, "Heather's Closet," where you can come into my closet.
Come into my world every week.
And, I have a brand-new channel with my 11-year-old daughter - Awww.
called "Hey Kat and Heather" and we...
It's an advice channel Mamrie: Cool. Grace: That's awesome
where we answer questions from an 11-year-old's and a mom's point of view.
Mamrie: I love it! Grace: That's so awesome.
And your podcast that Mamrie was on.
Yes! So much fun.
"Heather Dubrow's World" is on PodcastOne,
and Terry and I have a podcast together called "Dr. and Mrs. Guinea Pig."
Mamrie: Oh well. Grace: Awesome.
In all your free time, please plan another party
and invite us to come be classy at.
Well now you may come. You are invited.
Mamrie: Thanks, Heather. Grace: Thank you.
Chomp!
Mamrie, who do we have a gratitude problem with today?
Ooo, today we've got a gratitude problem with Twitter user maxislame.
Doubtful.
Who says, "It came out really bad, but [I] painted this set.
In watercolor and pen." And it looks awesome.
So max, you are not lame.
Mamrie: You are super-talented. Grace: You're a liar.
You're a liar. You're a talented liar!
Get him, Grace.
We love this painting so much and we want to see what you guys make, so
if you'd like to be a part of the Gratitude Problem,
