    Patreon Episode UNLOCKED - Summer Mailbag 2026

    While Amanda is away, we are sharing the Summer Mailbag that aired on Patreon in late August. We recorded it right after the news broke that Prince Harry & Meghan were moving back to the U.K., which makes for an interesting snapshot in time. If you want to join our Patreon, there's never been a better time. We just dropped our bonus episode and it's our first ever "Burn Book featuring...Prince William. This one will probably always live behind a paywall so if you want to listen, check it out here: Burn Book: Prince William New episodes every Wednesday and Friday!

    Maybe Meghan’s not the problem after all

    It was a whirlwind week of royal reports, scandals, rumors, and appearances…and it all left us wondering, “What if Meghan wasn’t the problem after all?” From (another) security threat seemingly inspired simply by the Sussex family existing in the UK, to allegations of Buckingham Palace taking measures to address “drinking culture” in its staff quarters, it seems that with every passing news cycle we get more evidence all that glitters isn’t, in fact, gold. Plus, updates on a threatened defamation suit against Charles, Earl Spencer, and discussions of Prince William and Prince Harry’s increasingly different approaches to honoring their mother’s legacy.

    Your Royal Briefing for September 30th, 2026

    This week is all about comings and goings: Prince Edward makes a return trip to Mount Vernon to mark America's 250th, and WME's Ari Emanuel confirms the agency and Meghan split in 2025. And a social pages photo we somehow missed has us revisiting Natasha Archer's exit from Kensington Palace, plus the Wales equerry who left just before her. ______________________________ New episodes every Wednesday and Friday!

    Imaginary Royal Rifts, Apologetic Beige Edition

    Amanda and Meredith catch up on this week’s royal news, including an unintended consequence of the King’s “clarifying” letter about the Sussexes. Seems it has done exactly the opposite, with Uganda’s military chief publicly indicating he’s felt the need to pick a side in the “nonsense.” Plus, royal fashion breakdowns from recent Wales family appearances and… why did no one acknowledge the 4th anniversary of QEII’s death? The Telegraph’s royal editor has a theory.

    The Men in Grey Behind the Royals’ Biggest Moments

    This episode is packed with the kind of commentary that makes the headlines make sense… and makes the people writing them look even worse. From Queen Camilla’s (apparent) connection to Dolly Parton to King Charles’s charity quietly putting Camilla’s sister Annabelle Elliot on the payroll, we’ll examine the larger pattern of how palace spin really works. That, of course, involves the “men in gray suits” that Princess Diana warned us about: the courtiers and strategists who decide which principal is a problem, which scandals vanish, and which royals get protected at all costs. We’re highlighting three major players from the past few decades to shed some light on these shadowy figures at the heart of “The Firm.” ______________________________ New episodes every Wednesday and Friday!
