June 23 We Shall Never Tire of Princess Diana Anecdotes
Far be it from us to turn down the opportunity to discuss a frivolous anecdote about a young Princess Diana. We are only human, after all! This week, our hosts reflect on a teenage Diana's romantic pranking, discuss Harry and Meghan's imminent return to the United Kingdom, and unpack the curious latest act from William in his quest to get promoted from "Prince of Pubs" to "King of Pubs."

June 16 He's William, Prince of Pubs and King of Change
When you're King, you don't have one birthday party; you have two. The Windsors marked King Charles's "official" birthday with a brooch-tastic parade and flyover, while elsewhere, Camilla's son Tom was busy extolling the virtues of uniquely British art of the putdown. And finally, we have another example to add to the list of Prince William's desire to be "The King of Change." So, do keep up: he's the Prince of Pubs and the King of Change.

June 09 All Hail Harriet Sperling, the Turtlenecked Bride
We just can't help being excited that the royal family has welcomed another member to the "Breath of Fresh Air" club with the official arrival of Harriet Sperling as a member of the Firm. Harriet, who won a permanent place in our hearts by wearing a turtlenecked wedding dress, married Princess Anne's son Peter Phillips over the weekend, and we were just delighted. Good news is so hard to come by these days. In other developments, Prince William is gunning for a "Prince of Pubs" title and we bid adieu to Pamela Mountbatten, a 97-year-old distant royal relative who saw more than her fair share of excitement for one lifetime.

June 02 Attention: Prince William Is Doing "Stuff"
Ah, it's betrothing season in the extended royal universe and, frankly, we adore every second of it. In this week's episode, we break down the forthcoming second wedding of Princess Anne's son Peter to the too-good-to-be-true Harriet Sperling, who is both gorgeous and gainfully employed. Plus, we celebrate the fourth (!!) wedding of Princess Diana's brother Charles, this one to former Nordic Person of the Year Cat Jarmon. In other royal news, there are developments over at the Duchy of Cornwall, where Prince William is shaking up literal centuries of tradition by making big changes after three years as its manager.

May 19 The One In Which the Middleton Siblings Take Center Stage
It's been a while since James and Pippa Middleton have been at the forefront of our Windsor-loving minds, but this week, they're back! James had a canine-friendly run-in with Queen Camilla at Clarence House, while Pippa and her husband "James Matthews, 50, hedge fund manager" are generating headlines thanks to a local row we have dubbed "Gate-gate." All this in today's episode of Windsors & Losers, plus a deep dive into a new theory that King Charles and Prince Harry are more in cahoots that anyone realized.

May 12 Everyone Should Feel a Love Like William's for Aston Villa
Prince William hosted a garden party, revealed how he likes his tea, and went through a wide range of emotions at an Aston Villa game. Meanwhile, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie returned to the London scene at a friend's 40th. And we recap a new list of British businesses who received royal warrants, asking ourselves: why do we care about these darn warrants so much?

May 05 Charles-Mania Sweeps America (Finally)
King Charles and Queen Camilla wrapped up a flawless tour to the United States, charming us with their references to the Magna Carta, enthusiasm for gardening with children, and bringing garden party culture to our shores. We recap tasty morsels from the trip, as well as remark upon Will and Kate's 15th wedding anniversary celebrations and a forthcoming new project involving Princess Diana.

April 28 Princess Margaret's Definition of a Picnic Is, Frankly, Wrong
This week, Eva and Allie discuss the latest twists and turns in Princess Diana's little brother Charles Spencer's love life. We couldn't help but wonder: could there be *too* much passion over there at Althorp House? Meanwhile, royal insider Anne Glenconner is blessing us with a new book filled with her unique royal insights. Her latest publication is about... picnics. You read that right. But trust us when we say that an essay on picnicking by Princess Margaret is one for the ages. And finally, where were you on April 29, 2011? It's hard to believe, but William and Kate are marking fifteen years married this week and, in honor of this great milestone, the Telegraph has a somewhat useful recap of the Waleses' last decade and a half.

April 21 Harry & Meghan Make Us Ask: What Even Is a Royal Tour?
If the King’s son and daughter-in-law take a gaffe-free visit to a former Commonwealth country, is it a royal tour? Harry and Meghan‘s Australian journey has us putting on our thinking caps, while we take a slightly less deep dive into the upcoming nuptial of Peter Philipps and Harriet Sperling and what it all means. Finally, we can’t contain our enthusiasm at another definite royal tour, that of King Charles and Queen Camilla to the United States. Join us, won’t you?

March 31 If Camilla Did It, Can Harry & Meghan?
Not so long ago, in a time called the nineties, Camilla Parker Bowles was the most hated person in Britain. Today, she’s Queen, without so much as a “consort” to qualify her status. How did she go from the “other woman” in the Charles and Diana fairytale-turned-nightmare to, as Allie puts it, “a granny with a book club”? In this re-listen of a classic Windsors & Losers episode, Eva and Allie introduce listeners to the magician who turned Camilla royal. And we ask, if Camilla was able to convince Britain to accept her, then surely there's a path back for Harry and Meghan?
