Meredith is moving, Amanda is turning 30, it's a wild week. This episode includes a follow up on NGN's settlement with Prince Harry and if this moment with the media calls for Love Actually's Prime Minister, Hugh Grant, to lay the smackdown while grooving to Jump (For My Love). Then we transition into the politics of fashion; from previous First Ladies to royal women and the women who think they are royalty. (Seriously, does Ivanka think that American Royals' is a historical series?) We wrap it up with the unexpected royal connection with the incoming administration that brings some of our old faves into the mix. Hint: His name rhymes with Park Molland!Enjoy.New episodes every single week! Listen early & ad-free on Patreon, where you’ll also find exclusive bonus content, early access to our videos and more.

UPDATE: On Tuesday, Jan. 14th 2025 Catherine, The Princess of Wales announced in an IG caption showcasing a surprise visit to Royal Marsden Hospital that she is in remission. In this episode, Meredith and Amanda examine the unprecedented year of royal updates (and speculation) surrounding Catherine, Princess of Wales's health journey. From the initial palace announcement of a “planned abdominal surgery” to the evolving public narrative surrounding her cancer treatment, we break down the palace’s communication strategy, the media’s response, and the public’s reaction. This has been one of the most discussed royal stories in recent memory, and so we're dedicating one of our first episodes of 2025 to unpacking how this narrative unfolded._________________________________New episodes every single week!

Amanda and Meredith dive into two royal stories that couldn't be more different: Meghan Markle's triumphant return to the screen with her new series, and the controversy surrounding members of the former Greek monarchy attempting to reclaim citizenship in their homeland.
