Quality Control Purposes
Advice columns like Dear Abby, Ann Landers, Miss Manners and Savage Love remain wildly popular with newspaper readers. But the advice doled out by these self-styled experts is not always worth the paper its printed on. So join hosts Malcolm Fleschner and Kurt Wolfrum as we conduct a little hilarity-filled quality control on a different assortment of advice columns each week and judge for yourself who gives better responses: us, them or maybe even you!

Today Malcolm and Kurt hilariously tackle letters to Dear Abby, Ask Amy and Miss Manners, sharing pointed thoughts on advice to:
- "Right or Wrong in Virginia," who is adamant about not going on double-dates with her husband's two-timing friend "Al.”
- "Finally Free," who wants to know if she was right to break things off the way she did with the married man who wasn't being honest with her
- A "Gentle Reader" who asked Miss Manners whether her "casual loungewear" was appropriate for brief trips into the yard to feed birds and move garbage bins
- "High and Dry" who says he's not sure how to tell his ex-wife he can't afford the expensive bar bill for their daughter's quinceañera party
