TV show ‘Shtisel’: why do the men address each other as ‘Rabbi’?

Hey guys, I don’t know if this is the right place to ask but I can’t post in the /shtisel subreddit so I thought I try here.

Alrighty so in season 2, Rabbitzin Ehrlich tells Melka (mother of Shulem) that she knows better about something or other because her husband was a rabbi, thus implying that Malka’s husband wasn’t a rabbi. But since all the men address each other as Rabbi Shtisel, Rabbi Weiss, Rabbi InsertLastNameHere etc. I am wondering how that fits with the Rabbitzin Ehrlich remark?
