Number 1: 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.

Number 2: 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!

Number 3: Your Royal Briefing for September 9th
It’s back to school season, and even the royals find themselves hitting the books as the fall term begins! With two heirs (and a spare) headed off to their next academic chapter, the royal landscape is getting smarter by the day. Plus, the attendees for King Harald V’s funeral in Oslo - the largest security operation in Norway’s history - have been announced, and King Charles III felt the need to issue a letter to “stakeholders” clarifying the Sussex family’s status. ______________________________ New episodes every Wednesday and Friday!

Number 5: Harry and Meghan’s Big Return
Rumors and reports are swirling that the Sussex family are set to move back to Britain this fall, where Archie and Lilibet will even be enrolled in school.

All your burning questions about this bombshell reporting, answered! How does King Charles III’s health fit into this decision? What about the Sussexes’ security? Is Meghan simply out of opportunities? And how oh how did the Prince of Wales take the news?
