    182: Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan bought a villa in Portugal, Kamala Harris lost the US election

    Introduction: Minutes 0 to 5:00 I’ve been dealing with chronic pain. I watched Agatha All Along and loved it. Chandra doesn’t like Kathryn Hahn, which I understand. Chandra highly recommends the movie Conclave. Poltics: Minutes 5:00 to 15:00 Trump won the election and it was a shock to put it lightly. We both believed that Kamala Harris was going to win. She ran an impeccable campaign. She was so on message, she was clear about her objectives, she had a literal to-do list and she emphasized inclusion and moving forward together. We’re so disappointed in people. Here’s the tweet from Baltimore’s mayor that I mentioned. We don’t think there’s a way that Kamala could have run a better campaign, she was so disciplined. We’re happy that Kamala won in our state of Virginia. Royals: Minutes 15:00 to 23:30 Since we last recorded, Charles and Camilla went on an anemic tour of Australia. Prince William went to South Africa for his Earthshot ceremony, tried to look statesman-like and failed. He got booed there. We remember how Camilla spread covid. Chandra mentions that Queen Elizabeth caught covid right after Charles and Camilla did. Prince Harry and Meghan purchased a villa in Portugal, where Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank live. It turned out that this was a very smart decision, since Trump has threatened to deport Harry. We talk about RFK Jr potentially removing flouride from the drinking water. Trump is credited with helping fund the vaccination rollout, but he can’t take credit for it because his base is antivax. We remember when Trump talked about getting vaccinated and got booed. Comments on the Week: Minutes 23:30 to end Chandra’s comment of the week is from Whyforthelove on the post about Kamala Harris losing the election. My comment of the week is from pottymouth pup on that same post. Thanks for listening bitches.

  2. 181: Princess Kate and Prince William visited with a cancer patient, Prince Harry’s whirlwind trip

    181: Princess Kate and Prince William visited with a cancer patient, Prince Harry’s whirlwind trip

    Introduction: Minutes 0 to 5:45 Chandra and I both watched The Perfect Couple and loved it! Chandra also loved the fourth season of Emily in Paris.  Royals: Minutes (5:45) to 24:15 After our last podcast Kate released a video with her family announcing that she was cancer free. It was self absorbed and the British media criticized her for it. King Charles is said to have disapproved too. It was reportedly Kate’s idea, which makes a lot of sense. There were stories after that about how we weren’t going to see Kate for a while and how her schedule wasn’t going to get back to normal until the spring. We heard that she went to a ballet performance recently and that she’s been having private meetings. This week Kate and William helped grant a 16-year-old cancer patient’s wish to photograph an investiture ceremony, which was really nice. The Waleses were possibly motivated by Harry’s recent press and the comments from Buckingham Palace about Kate’s video. Last week Prince Harry was in New York for a series of appearances. He also was on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon to tour his haunted house, which was fun. Cameron Walker of GB News tweeted that Harry is a veteran and that he was surprised that he got scared for that reason. Over the weekend Harry dipped in and out of London to attend the WellChild Awards. He didn’t see his dad at all. When we recorded Harry was visiting Lesotho and South Africa. While Harry was getting so much positive press in New York, the British press tried to attack the Sussexes on two fronts. One was that Harry and Meghan must be having relationship problems because Meghan wasn’t with him on these trips. We heard she was sick maybe she has covid and/or she just wanted to stay home with the kids. Then they dusted off that old chestnut about Meghan being mean and making her staffers cry by asking them to do their jobs and sending them email. It was unhinged and they got some US outlets to run it this time, including The Hollywood Reporter. They got one specific story about Meghan allegedly screaming at a florist in 2018, however the florist for her wedding went on the record to say it was great to work with her. The lack of specifics about what Meghan allegedly did is so telling. The Sussexes pushed back against these lies with an US Weekly cover story including quotes from people who work with them and went on the record. Of course Meghan and Harry are thoughtful, kind bosses. The reaction to the US story was unhinged. We wonder why The Hollywood Reporter parroted British talking points about Meghan circa 2018. William tried doing a bunch of stuff as Harry was getting press. He posed in front of some new London Air Ambulance Charity helicopters with David Beckham and he visited a company called Enso where he changed a tire. This week there was a story that Victoria Beckham doesn’t like Meghan, but it seemed manufactured by the press. Prince William tried to poach Chef Jose Andres by putting him on the board of Earthshot, but Andres made it clear that he’s still good friends with Harry. William still has that unattractive patchy beard because he wants Harry’s style and life. Comments of the Week: Minutes (24:15) to end Kaiser’s comment of the week is from sevenblue on the post where Tom Parker Bowles calls Charles “the loveliest man in the world.” Here’s a link the photos Chandra mentioned where Camilla is scratching her vag. I remember when Camilla went maskless to a cooking event right after Charles tested positive for covid. My comment of the week is from Pinkosaurus on the post about Olivia Nuzzi filing a complaint with the FBI against her ex-fiance. Thanks for listening bitches!

  3. 180: Harry and Meghan's successful trip to Colombia, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt premiere their films in Venice

    7 SEPT

    180: Harry and Meghan's successful trip to Colombia, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt premiere their films in Venice

    Introduction: Minutes 0 to 4:15 I watched Thunder Force on Netflix and loved it. Chandra had to subscribe to ESPN+ due to DirectTV’s feud with Disney. She is watching In the Arena with Serena Williams. Royals: Minute 4:15 to 21:00 The last time we recorded the Sussexes had arrived in Colombia. They pulled off that trip like professionals and the optics were amazing. Colombia’s Vice President Francia Marquez said that Harry and Meghan’s visit really highlighted tourism. We heard that it only cost Colombia less than $60,000 to provide security for them. The Sussexes did a great job making photos available to agencies. Emily Andrews let it slip that Buckingham Palace had talking points about this trip. King Charles went to Southport last week to visit the families of children who were murdered in a knife attack. Charles has been staying in Scotland at his smaller home, Birkhall, while other members of the family stay at Balmoral. Kate was seen headed to church there on August 25th. There was a story in GB News that Zara and Mike Tindall were being asked to relieve Prince William and Princess Kate. There’s an undercurrent that William and Kate are incapable of doing their jobs. Prince Harry made a secret visit to the UK last week to go to his uncle Robert Fellowes’ funeral. Harry stayed at Althorp with the Earl Spencer. You could tell that the Windsors were super mad they didn’t know about Harry’s visit ahead of time. The Windsors are mad at how much the Spencers support Harry. There’s been a narrative in the British press that Harry wants to come back to the UK to do royal work. It’s clearly coming from William’s side. This narrative has been pushed by William for years. Chandra thinks this storyline is an attempt to distract from what’s going on with Kate. Toward the end of this month Prince Harry is going to be in New York solo for UN climate week. He’s going to speak at the Clinton Global Initiative. Prince William will not be going to NY on behalf of Earthshot despite pathetically trying to copykeen Harry’s trip last year. We wonder why William and Kate didn’t do any events during the Sussexes’ trip. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie: Minutes 21:00 to 31:30 This week both Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt premiered their movies at the Venice Film Festival. Angelina is starring as opera star Maria Callas in the biopic Maria. She is getting Oscar buzz for that and it’s coming out on Netflix. Braad is starring with George Clooney in the Apple streaming movie Wolfs. It was supposed to come out in theaters but that’s not happening. Brad Pitt made his red carpet debut with Ines de Ramon. Brad and Angelina are covering People Magazine this week with the title “Brad and Angelina, their 8 year divorce, Can they Finally Move On,” as if Brad’s legal battle against Angelina is mutual. The whole narrative comes from Brad and it’s the same garbage we’ve seen from him for years as he uses legal means to continue to try and punish Angelina for leaving him after he abused her and their children. Brad Pitt looks pulled and puffy recently. There’s been a shift in public perception about Brad Pitt, especially since Shiloh changed her last name. Comments of the week: Minutes 31:30 to end Chandra’s comment of the week is from It Really Is You, Not Me on the post about Justin Theroux’s engagement. My comments of the week are from HeatherC and Indica on Rosie’s post about Oasis potentially adding US dates to their tour. Thanks for listening bitches!

  4. 179: Duchess Meghan & Prince Harry visit Colombia, Blake Lively & Justin Baldoni feud

    17 AUG

    179: Duchess Meghan & Prince Harry visit Colombia, Blake Lively & Justin Baldoni feud

    Introduction: Minutes 0 to 7:15 We recorded on Friday this week instead of Thursday as usual. We both loved the Olympics and talk about our favorite events and athletes.  Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni: Minutes 7:15 to 18:45 Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni are costarring in the film This Ends with Us. The book is by Colleen Hoover and it’s been criticized as romanticizing domestic abuse. I’ve read that the movie does the same thing. Justin Baldoni is directing the film, he bought the rights and hired a screenwriter. People noticed that he skipped the London premiere and that he hasn’t posed with Blake Lively or done press with her. They also noticed that Blake and the author Colleen Hoove unfollowed Justin on Instagram. The Hollywood Reporter said that Lively and Baldoni’s feud started in post-production, when Blake commissioned a separate edit of the film. Chandra thinks that Justin’s edit is likely the one that made it to theaters. Blake’s husband Ryan Reynolds also rewrote a key scene. THR next reported that Blake screened her own edit of the film at a book event for Colleen Hoover in June. It looks like she tried to take creative control of the film. At first we got vague stories that Baldoni created a difficult work environment. The stories about why people hate him were suspicious to me. He also is said to have made Blake feel bad about her postpartum body. Baldoni has hired the same PR crisis management firm that Johnny D-pp and Brad Pitt use. TMZ then reported that Blake felt uncomfortable around Justin because he kissed her too long in a scene and because he asked her trainer how much she weighed since he had to pick her up and has a bad back. An older interview from 2016 recently came out where Blake and Parker Posey were meangirling a Norwegian interviewer, ignoring her and talking to each other instead. This is how Blake has always been.  Blake has been promoting the movie like it’s a frothy romance and Justin is being serious and measured in his promotion. His production company has partnered with an anti domestic violence foundation and he has been talking about ending the cycle of abuse.  Royals: Minutes 18:45 to 25:15 None of the major royals went to the Olympics in Paris. Will and Kate just recorded a brief video congratulations with celebrities afterwards. They didn’t congratulate any of the individual athletes. The Daily Mail recently reported that Kate is still undergoing preventative chemotherapy, that she’s still recovering and that we probably won’t see her until Remembrance Day. This is the type of story we get about Kate every six months. Earlier this month the Sussexes gave an interview to CBS Sunday Morning on behalf of their new initiative through Archewell called The Parents Network, to provide support and resources for parents to protect their children from online harm. They included parents who had lost children to online bullying and to drugs purchased online. It’s a great cause. Meghan was asked about her past suicidal ideation, which she opened up about during her interview with Oprah. I play a segment from their CBS Sunday Morning interview. Harry and Meghan have been working on this cause for some time. A couple of weeks ago it was reported that the Sussexes have accepted an invitation to visit Colombia. We didn’t realize it would happen so soon. Harry and Meghan are in Colombia now and the photos and videos coming out are incredible. They’re so warm and natural with people. They have been meeting with the Vice President Francia Marquez, they went to a theater performance and participated in a panel about Internet safety. Marquez saw their Netflix series and that’s why she wanted to meet Meghan! Politics: Minutes 25:15 to 33:30 While we were off, Kamala Harris chose Minnesota governor Tim Walz as her running mate. Chandra thinks that Harris has a soft spot for dorky white men. We loved Harris and Walz’s joint video interview. We hope she do

    178: Kamala Harris's run has massive support, Prince Harry interviewed in ITV documentary

    Introduction: Minutes 0 to 4:00 I saw Twisters. It was more of a rental, but I liked Glen Powell in it. Chandra is looking forward to the Olympics, particularly the tennis. I’ve been watching 48 Hours episodes on YouTube.  Chandra likes watching Snapped with her mom. Politics: Minutes 4:00 to 18:00 Last week when we talked Biden was still in the race although there were calls for him to step down. We also heard he has covid. Some of the top democratic brass were calling for Biden to step down, including Pelosi and Obama. Biden submitted his resignation on Sunday, July 21. In his announcement he endorsed Kamala Harris. This was not what the people asking for him to step down had planned for. They wanted an open convention and voting, which would have led to chaos. The Democratic party lined up behind Kamala and by late Monday night she had enough delegates to secure the party’s nomination. She raised a record $100 million in just two days after Biden stepped down. She also got endorsements from so many people, including the Clintons, Nancy Pelosi, all the major democratic governors and many congresspeople. As of our recording on Thursday, July 25th at 2pm Eastern time, Barack Obama had not yet endorsed Kamala Harris. (He has since endorsed her, as I mentioned in an update.) We like how the Clintons supported Biden and endorsed Harris quickly. There’s a groundswell of support for Harris. We both gave money to her campaign. We appreciate how enthusiastically Biden endorsed Harris. The tagline “We’re not going back” is so good. Trump is thinking of dumping Vance as his running mate. We doubt that they even vetted Vance. Vance has a long history of saying terrible sh-t. One of the big stories this week was when people brought back comments Vance made in 2021-22 about “childless cat ladies” who are running the Democratic party. Jennifer Aniston clapped back at that. We wonder when Taylor Swift will endorse Harris. Royals: Minutes 18:00 to 25:45 This week the big news is that the Invictus Games are going to be in Birmingham in 2027. At lot of us were shocked because it seems so unsafe for Harry and Meghan to go back to the UK. There are three years until that happens and it seems premature to speculate about it. I play a segment from Zoom where we talk about the royals. We hope they have great security in Birmingham. Chandra hopes Meghan will never go back there but I think she’ll go to support Harry. Prince Harry was interviewed as part of the ITV documentary, Tabloids on Trial, which aired this week. He talked about the press portraying his mother as paranoid when she was being hacked. His own brother called their mother paranoid in his 2021 statement on the Dyson investigation into Martin Bashir’s interview with Diana. We talked about that in episode 130. I play a segment from Harry’s interview. Harry is so diplomatic and explains what happened to him so well. We hope that he knows that his family is behind the press attacks on him. Comments of the Week: Minutes 25:45 to end Kaiser’s comment of the week is from Lurker M on the post about Biden’s address to the nation. My comment of the week is from Lightpurple on Kismet’s post covering June Squibb’s interview.Thanks for listening bitches!

    177: Prince Harry honored at the ESPYs, this week in politics

    Introduction: Minutes 0 to 7:00 I saw the movie Thelma twice in theaters. It’s one of my favorite movies of all time. Chandra was watching Wimbledon and her favorite, Daniil Medvedev, got to the semifinal. Chandra has also been watching YouTube reaction channels. Her favorite is MANIACITV. She also recommends I-9ine5ive. Royals: Minutes 7:00 to 20:00 The last time we talked Kate had made her return after six months at Trooping the Color. She’s since been seen at Wimbledon at the men’s final. She did not attend the women’s final. We’re hearing now that she’ll be on vacation for several months for summer, which is what she’s done for some time. There was just a story about how she no longer lives by the calendar. There’s a real effort to lionize her for going to a tennis match. We would like to see Kate reach out to other cancer patients and charities. As we mentioned in episode 176, the Middletons are also back from their insolvency crisis. They popped back up the minute Kate came out again. They were at Wimbledon this year and were even in the royal box. Chandra remembers when Kate waved to her parents in the cheap seats at Wimbledon. The big story the past couple of weeks was about Prince Harry receiving the Pat Tillman award at the ESPYs. After the award was announced and before the ESPYS happened the British press tried to smear Harry. There were so many articles trashing Harry for receiving this award. ESPN commentator Pat McAfee was one of the naysayers. He is an idiot and an antivaxxer. The Daily Mail got Pat Tillman’s mother on the record to say that Harry is divisive. ESPN and former Pat Tillman award recipients defended Harry after that. Harry was so gracious at the ESPYs and the response was overwhelmingly positive. Of course the tabloids tried to spin it negatively. Charles and Camilla opened Parliament this week, decked out in stolen jewels and finery. They were met with large protests and Charles was seen snapping at a page boy. Prince William went to the Euro final, where he looked like a hooligan. Politics: Minutes 20:00 to 30:30 Donald Trump was grazed by a bullet or some glass that ricocheted and hit the top of his ear at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania last weekend. The shooter was a 20-year-old registered Republican man and he was killed at the scene. One man in the crowd was shot and killed and two others were hurt. The whole scene was bizarre because Trump stood up right afterwards and was showboating, lifting his arm to the crowd. Security experts have said that you’re supposed to shield a high profile target. So many security failures happened. It’s doubtful anyone will stand up to Trump and it’s known that he tried to attack a secret service agent who stood up to him on January 6. Trump is doing open air events because he didn’t pay venues in 2020. We remember when Trump left his rally goers stranded out in the cold. That was in Omaha, we remembered it wrong. Trump picked his Vice President, and it’s Hillbilly Elegy author and freshman senator from Ohio J.D. Vance. Vance is married to an Indian-American lawyer and has three children with her. The MAGAs hate that and of course they’re being racist about his family. Unfortunately Biden has covid. Biden did not do that well at the debate a couple weeks ago, but he’s since done interviews and he’s been excellent. Plus of course the press focused on Biden’s performance instead of the fact that Trump tried to overthrow the government, that he lies constantly and that he’s a convicted felon. There are calls for him to step down and it’s ridiculous. There is not enough support for Kamala. Biden is also said to be making changes to the Supreme Court. Comments of the week: Minutes 30:30 to end Chandra’s COTW is from Oh_Hey on the post about Angelina Jolie requesting Brad Pitt’s communications around the 2016 plane incident. It clear that Pitt’s team is using bots to control the narrative.  My commen

  7. 176: Princess Kate appeared for the first time in six months, Duchess Meghan sent a friend jam

    22 JUN

    176: Princess Kate appeared for the first time in six months, Duchess Meghan sent a friend jam

    Introduction: Minutes 0 to 6:30 We’re glad we took last week off. I’ve been watching Dark Matter on Apple TV with Joel Edgerton and Jennifer Connelly. Chandra watched Bridgerton season three and Late Night with the Devil. She also loved Kendrick Lamar’s live concert. Royals: Minutes 6:30 to 25:15 We got a photo and announcement from Princess Kate last Friday. She said she would be at Trooping but we did not expect to really see her. We wonder who has been making the decisions at Kensington Palace. We have heard for weeks that we shouldn’t expect to see Kate until the autumn and maybe not all year. Her appearance at Trooping was a big surprise, especially since she missed the rehearsal. We wonder why so many fake videos and photos were released of Kate the past few weeks. The narrative after Kate’s appearance was typical. Allison Pearson at the Telegraph ran a fawning over the top piece about how amazing Kate was for showing up at Trooping. The subtitle of the piece was “When lesser mortals would have stayed at home, Catherine proved that the show goes on.” It looks like Kensington Palace has taken over the messaging again as it’s very tone deaf. Kate is covering People Magazine this week. King Charles’ biographer Catherine Mayer gave the quote that “However difficult, or otherwise, this has been for Kate, appearing was an act of service under the terms of the institution she is part of.” Meghan sent jam and dog biscuits to Harry’s best friend Nacho Figueras. Nacho posted photos of his dog, I think it’s a whippet, next to the biscuits and the jam, which was labeled 2/2. Meghan was just sending a gift to a friend, it’s not like she was doing it to overshadow Kate. Instead there was an article in the Daily Beast with a source who said “You just have to ask yourself, who would set out to ruin a cancer-sufferer’s day? It is absolutely pathetic.” It’s likely Meghan sent that jam days before anyone knew Kate would go to Trooping. I play a segment from Zoom where we talk about the royals. We saw Carole and Michael Middleton at Royal Ascot. This was surprising, because there were stories as of late last week about how they didn’t even pay the insolvency firm that helped them restructure and sell Party Pieces. Kate did not go to Royal Ascot and she also didn’t go to the big Order of the Garter investiture ceremony earlier this week. She let everyone know that she would not be at those ceremonies. She’s expected to be at Wimbledon in early July. Comments of the Week: Minutes 25:15 to end Chandra’s comment of the week is from sevenblue on the post about Kendrick Lamar’s live concert on Amazon prime.Kendrick has been making hip hop history. My comment of the week is from lanne on the post about the details of Justin Timberlake’s DUI arrest. Thanks for listening bitches!

  8. 175: Princess Kate's expected return date keeps changing, Shiloh Jolie files to change her name

    8 JUN

    175: Princess Kate's expected return date keeps changing, Shiloh Jolie files to change her name

    Introduction: Minutes to 6:15 I loved the Fall Guy and am on the second season of AMC’s Interview with the Vampire. Chandra enjoyed Challengers. Royals: Minutes 6:15 to 21:30 We’ve talked for years about this common narrative from the British Press where they’ll come up with something the Sussexes need to attend and cover it endlessly. They’ve done this with Hugh Grosvenor’s wedding since the invitations went out in December. Roya Nikkhah, a journalist who regularly gets exclusives from William, reported in The Times that Harry and Meghan weren’t invited, which was not true. Then we heard that Harry was invited, but he declined. Chandra thinks that story was pushback from Hugh and Harry to William’s narrative. They tried to spin it like Harry declined because William is going to be an usher and Harry is jealous or something. People magazine reported that Harry and Hugh talked on the phone and realized that it would be best if Harry didn’t come. We haven’t seen Kate since Christmas apart from her video announcement. We’ve heard Kate is not likely to be at Trooping the Colour on June 15th. She’s also not expected to attend any events around the state visit from the Emperor and Empress of Japan on June 25th to 27th. William was asked about Kate this week by a WWII veteran during events ahead of D-Day. William said she’s getting better. Just last week People and US claimed that Kate was seen out running errands including making a trip to a chocolate shop with William. This is very bizarre messaging. It seems like Buckingham Palace and Kensington Palace are not on the same page. Much of the narrative is to protect William.  Kate is covering US Magazine, and the article is getting a lot of attention on social media because of the quote that “she may never come back in the role that people saw her in before.” Richard Eden in the Daily Mail said a couple of weeks ago that Kate might not be seen until autumn and then Tom Sykes in the Daily Beast reported from sources that she won’t be back until next year. It feels like a different narrative keeps taking over and being taken back. Shiloh Jolie: Minutes 21:30 to 26:15 Shiloh Jolie, who is now 18, filed to have Pitt officially dropped as her last legal name. She hired her own lawyer and filed the paperwork herself. We’ve previously heard that Vivienne, who turns 16 next month, is only using Jolie as her last name, and that Zahara is only using Jolie as her last name in college. Brad Pitt and his children have been estranged for years since he abused and terrorized them on an airplane in 2016. A source told People that Brad Pitt is “aware and upset that Shiloh dropped his last name. He’s never felt more joy than when she was born. He always wanted a daughter.” Brad and Angelina already had daughter Zahara for a year when Shiloh was born. All of Brad’s statements to outlets about this have been self-centered and lack any remorse or responsibility. We hope the public sees him for who he is soon. Comments of the Week: Minutes 26:15 to end Chandra’s comment of the week is from Miranda on the post about Trump getting convicted finally. My comment of the week is from Jennifer on the post about Jennifer Lopez canceling her tour. Thanks for listening bitches!
