  • Too much H&M fake news

    It’s getting harder to listen to all of the pro-Harry propaganda. He’s not being welcomed back, he’s not respected nor respectful. A spoiled, petulant man child. The real hothead is Harry. There’s years of video evidence of his behavior.

  • Harder on Meghan and Harry than Andrew and Fergie

    This podcast is obsessively critical of Meghan and Harry, while portraying Andrew and Fergie far more sympathetically. This feels really wrong.
