Great Podcast for Royal Newbies

13/05/2024

Lufmaverick

This podcast is a breath of fresh air, I met one of the host Roya at my job today and she was so passionate in explaining what the podcast is about and how she aims to elevate the podcast in the future. Insightful conversations for someone who was not into royal affairs but this podcast is one of the best podcasts I have recently come across. Can’t wait for future episodes!!!!!!!

I enjoyed this podcast until the ladies jumped in the Meghan mocking bandwagon. A real shame.
Lightweight drivel!

AnnieJuly1

This is the most soft-soaped, inane drivel and I’m surprised The Times wants this in its otherwise heavier weight stable. The faux banter is followed by the sort of “shallow throat” insights you can get off the BBC website - because they only do stories already firmly in the public eye. Despite their so-called insider status, they offer no actual insight. Avoid! It’s a vanity project for two journos who clearly can’t hack the proper stuff.
Boring

Sorry but this really is quite dull. The two clearly don’t get on - they are rivals. It’s just all a bit flat.
