I have just spent the entire day in Aberfan. I stood in the crowd, as a member of the public, in the freezing cold, for hours. I shook hands with the King, the Queen and Prince William, one after the other. And I talked to the people who were there, ... more

Not a huge “royalist” but the obvious bias against Harry in this is now way too hard to swallow. Should be called the pro William and Charles podcast. Also. As a Canadian I am sick of all this Royal Family narrative. They should not be the head of our state. Canada is independent and has no need to be part of the commonwealth WHAT IS THE BENEFIT?? Where is Charles in the American bullying of Canada. I love the daily beast. But I’m out here guys. Suggestions: more objectivity. Less personal opini... more
Waffley and over-reliant on clueless Americans who know nothing about British culture or mores and still less about the royal family. This podcast would be immeasurably improved by dropping them (and with them their frequent factual errors) and by having Andrew Lownie on more often. That said, as a serious writer who actually knows his stuff, I doubt he’d come on unless he had a book out.
Such a positive Prince Harry and his family are back.🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Great podcast series! Very enjoyable and the guests are varied and informed. Paula Froelich and Plum are wonderful regular guests and my favorites. One suggestion, Tom, Harry isn’t in danger of a nut job, he IS the nut job! 😂
Depressing news that they are coming back. And worrying about what you are saying regarding people forgetting what they have done . I was a staunch royalist but thinking of changing that view unless titles for all are taken away.
