Solicited Advice with Alison Roman

This week Alison is joined by fashion journalist Emilia Petrarca. Together they advise callers on how to pack for vacation, why button downs reign supreme and why hosting a party is the perfect opportunity to pull out all the stops outfit-wise (cashmere underwear = party dress). Alison and Emilia find the balance between comfort and style, help you up your shoe game and discuss what “age-appropriate” even means. Call 856-502-4816 to solicit advice on a future episode.

This week Alison is joined by comedian and writer Jay Jurden. They advise callers on handling friend breakups, how to make friends in your 30s and why you maybe should say yes to one (only one) happy hour drink with that coworker you'd rather...not. Jay and Alison also teach how to gracefully avoid social awkwardness, chat up someone in your run club and much, much more. Call 856-502-4816 to solicit advice on a future episode.

This week Alison is joined by internet darling, author of Central Places and the Deez Links newsletter (including the newsletter within a newsletter, Hate Reads), Delia Cai. They advise callers on everything from throwing a lowkey but not too lowkey birthday to why you should give your dinner guests a job. You’ll also learn their true feelings about Partiful, bodega flowers and how doing karaoke at the karaoke bar on Succession can go horribly wrong. Plus, Delia tells you her secret to getting invited to every party (hint…talk about a near death experience). Call 856-502-4816 to solicit advice on a future episode.

This week Alison is joined by journalist and author of “We Need to Talk About Money” Otegha Uwagba to discuss finances. Is a lab grown diamond less meaningful than a mined one? What do I do about my friend’s constant comments about my finances? How do I help a friend budget? Why do women have to spend so much on grooming? And when is that fancy farmer’s market produce worth it? Together, Otegha and Alison explore how to navigate financial differences, the ever-expensive cost of big city living, making your jewelry anti-capitalist, and much more.
