Off With Their Headlines

What if we covered royal news with the baseline knowledge of…an average American? In an OWTH first, we are welcoming a guest host with approximately zero royal knowledge under his belt: Shane! 

Amanda’s husband lends his expertise to the week’s royal news stories, including reports about Prince William selling parts of the Duchy of Cornwall; Meghan, Duchess of Sussex in Geneva with the W.H.O.; and some surprisingly underperforming royal protection officers.

Plus, can Shane Solve Royal Drama? We’ll put him to the test to resolve some of the monarchy’s most talked-about scandals in the last few years!

This week, we ask an important question: is the royal family simply… too little, too piccola for all this drama?

We break down Princess Kate’s upcoming trip to Italy and what it could signal about her return to a more international royal role after a disrupted year. From there, we discuss the royal family’s tributes to Sir David Attenborough on his 100th birthday and whether Prince William’s Earthshot ambitions worked their way into his.

We also unpack fresh reports about William’s temper resurfacing in the press, a truly eyebrow-raising story suggesting Queen Camilla and William have united against the Yorks, and a surprising claim that last week's attack on Andrew MBW has implications for Prince Harry's security.

Then it’s on to lighter fare: garden party fashion and...what may happen with the King’s possible postponed Speech from the Throne as Keir Starmer faces growing opposition within his own party. (We tried!)

Grab a Pimms or an espresso martini and join us for this week’s royal roundup!

With King Charles’ U.S. visit complete, we are revisiting some of the other royal stories out there this past week. We have a new “star” (not secret weapon!) of the British Royal Family, a Royal baby announcement, coverage of Prince William’s taxes (and what’s missing from the conversation). Plus, a Meghan spotting in the Windy City, the official color of Ascot, and no, they steered clear of white (cough Pantone Cloud Dancer cough) and more!

This week’s episode is all about King Charles III and Queen Camilla’s much-anticipated visit to the U.S. Can they save the “special relationship?” Does King Charles….have JOKES? 

Before that, we touch on recent comments from Prince Harry during his time in Ukraine last week, and how they set the tone heading into a week of high-profile royal appearances this side of the Atlantic.

Happy Friday!

Today we are celebrating Louis' birthday.

Other than that (A)I hate it here...yes of convo is largely dedicated to AI. From recent video manipulation in a Harry and Meghan article to Will's "dad" joke about AI replacing the actual drivers at an engagement he went on this week, AI is everywhere and Reece Witherspoon wants to explore it, y'all!

For more on the Reece Witherspoon dramz, check out Meredith Lynch here.

We’re wrapping up the Sussexes’ Australia tour and the media narratives that followed before diving into some truly baffling coverage about Meghan “risking backlash” by… referencing her own children in her latest As Ever launch.

From there, we turn to the legacy of Queen Elizabeth II, marking what would have been her 100th birthday. We look at how the royal family chose to commemorate the moment, the role of the Royal Collection Trust (including the souvenirs on offer), and what it all tells us about how royal memory is shaped…and sold. 

The collections we reference: https://www.royalcollectionshop.co.uk/queen-elizabeth-ii-centenary-collection/view-all.html 

Plus, thoughts on the announcement of the Queen’s official biographer. What we can realistically expect from a history that’s been institutionally authorized?

Not sure if you've heard, but Harry and Meghan are in Australia!

We spent most of the episode discussing their business/philanthropy trip down under and the media coverage as well as the news of a Fergie spotting in the wild, a Danish dismissal over a dachshund, what's Wills been up to, and more!
