- British press is Harsh
I’m finding it quite fascinating how the British press including this podcast are so condescending of Harry and Meghan. Someone who has openly discussed his mental health. I’d love for anyone discussing Harry to look at all the footage from his recent visit. What an asset to the out of touch Royal family he could be. I’d love to hear this being discussed.

Please don’t let the king come here. He would be visiting a man who has ties with Epstein and a pedo. Also he’s a felon and a horrible man in general.

Unfortunately, this podcast relies almost entirely on personal opinion rather than actual reporting. The ongoing fixation on Harry and Meghan, Netflix, Spare, and past interviews feels repetitive and dated. It’s time to move on ladies. Is Meghan coming to the UK? Will she be liked by the public? I wonder if she will be booed? Totally boring podcast and Meghan haters!!!

Love your pod cast. Is there a reason why all the royals can’t live in Windsor castle or Buckingham palace? I love the royals and a big reason why I would visit London on vacation. I would think they bring in loads of tourists. Has anyone checked into how much tourism they bring in? Thank you
