  • USA ❤️ our greater Britain cousins 💕

    Epstein & Trump are best exposed. Is Epstein really dead? We don’t have proof yet. P. S. We all are still very fond of Diana. She is very real always.

    I hate listen. They are so mean and judgmental, especially about Meaghan , who is just living her life. BTW she is a Northwestern grad- making her more intelligent than any of them.

  • Biographer Prince Andrew, right on

    FYI I wrote DA Robert Morgenthau in 2001 when I had a letter published in the New York Times battle over the mural of pain about another battle that in 1996 jeffrey epstein with his special service’s girl Friday Ghislaine Maxwell stole my art! DA didn’t wanna have a discussion on what that “special services GF” meant. So no surprise it comes out in the email there it is that’s what she is for Prince Andrew and that was on my blog that they were above the law years ago. Fast-forward 2001 I’m assa... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The ONE TIME Queen Elizabeth II stepped OUT OF LINE | Palace Authorised
Q: Having analyzed all 60 episodes of The Crown on your podcast, what do you think is the twisted truth in that series that most damaged the monarchy?
He argues the series is fundamentally dishonest, mixing fact and emotion for drama and presenting a biased version of events that harms the monarchy's reputation.
The ONE TIME Queen Elizabeth II stepped OUT OF LINE | Palace Authorised
Q: You write that the Queen might best be described as Elizabeth the Conciliator. What do you mean by that?
He explains that she engaged in acts of conciliation worldwide, using diplomacy and steady diplomacy to build bridges to the future, from Germany to Japan, and emphasized taking steps forward rather than dwelling on the past.
Beatrice & Eugenie - it's time to QUIT! | Palace Confidential
Q: Can Andrew remove himself from the line of succession voluntarily?
Experts suggest he could theoretically step away, but it would require parliamentary changes and may not be a simple or politically feasible move, making it unlikely in the near term.
Princess Diana told me she was 'preparing' PRINCE HARRY TO BE KING | Palace Confidential
Q: Was it difficult for you to write about Diana as a journalist while also being her friend?
Yes, it was challenging, and the balance lay in telling things as I saw them while recognizing the emotional weight of my friendship with her.
Andrew has NO PLACE in future King William's monarchy | Palace Authorised
Q: Was it daunting to document the lives of the two most famous people in the world?
Myers described it as exciting and timely, emphasizing that William and Catherine's story had not been explored in depth for a decade and that the book aims to provide intimate insights into their personal and public lives.
