You Shouldn't Have: Philip Galanes on Gift Giving and Receiving

The Leonard Lopate Show | Dec 9, 2014

The holidays are a time for giving, receiving, and spending time with family, a time when people are not always on their best behavior. Sometimes we all need a little guidance on how to manage ourselves, and others, as the holidays approach. New York Times Social Q’s columnist Philip Galanes offers advice on gifting during the holiday season, including how to graciously give and receive presents. Galanes is the author of Social Q's: How to Survive the Quirks, Quandaries and Quagmires of Today.

Philip and Leonard covered many subjects, but perhaps the most surprising was new etiquette around gifting marijuana, and marijuana edibles. Listen to Leonard and Philip discuss this new world of pot gifting etiquette, below.
