The King’s Speech or: How I Learned About Elocution


Listen Later

In continuing our theme of fealty of knights in service of kings, we have a different sort of "knight" this week, Carie and Ross cover Tom Hooper's Academy Award Winning film, The King's Speech (2010). Ross divulges all the tea shared between King George VI (or "Bertie") and his elocution coach, Lionel Logue who landed his own title in chivalry under the British crown. Carie groans at the protocol of royal life, Ross gives us the cliffnotes on the David arc from the Crown, and the siblings appreciate the power of a well-timed speech in a not well time at all.
