FABULOUS INSIGHT

Thank you Mr Jobson for your wonderful insightful podcast on the Royal Family and in particular I have enjoyed listening to the ‘behind scenes’ stories. The water balloons story about the mischievous young Princes was hilarious. As an Australian I have had great respect for British Royalty and follow what I would call outside the ‘gossip mags’ interest. The new modern Royals show a refreshing side to what is important on a humanitarian level.

A Rare Gem in a sea of Cubic Zirconia

Rob Jobson, the gentle giant with 30 years experience and all the right connections delivers an entertaining and insightful podcast on the Royal Family. Highly respectful this is a quality podcast from someone on the inside of the Royal orbit.
