Truthache The End of Etiquette – Fabian Rodriguez
From suit and tie to sneakers and jeans, the world has become more casual, and no one has manners anymore. What flimsy doilies will we be wearing in 25 years? Is this the beginning of the end?
Fabian Rodriguez joins us to talk about his role as a Lu Lu Lemon Ambassador and pickle baller wearing shorts and still claiming to be professional.
We explore the erosion of traditional social norms in an increasingly casual world, where formal attire like suits and ties has given way to everyday staples such as sneakers and jeans. This shift may reflect broader cultural changes, which prompts questions about whether manners are becoming obsolete and what unconventional or minimalist fashion choices do for our lives and what they say about decorum.
Fabian, as an ambassador for the athletic apparel brand, embodies the "sweatlife" philosophy—emphasizing sweat, growth, and community connections through active pursuits and comfort with an F bomb. Should the prevalence of more comfortable attire and more frequent swearing challenge outdated codes? And while we're talking about that, why is it that we all feel that we have to practice this decorum, but in Washington, no such practice of civility seems to exist? We talk about what we think about it.
