    May God Save The Betch

    May God Save The Betch

    For this episode, Samantha and Lex start off with an update. While we will no longer be producing weekly episodes of Crown Jewels, stay tuned for breaking royal news in the future. For this week’s Tea & Crumpets, they start some “polite conversation” about how the royal kids are not allowed to eat with their parents during holidays and official dinners (it’s giving kids table at Thanksgiving). While they banish their kids to eat alone, the royal family has welcomed Prince Andrew and Lady Susan Hussey back with open arms. Then, they Make It Reign on the Kardashian/Jenner family after the photo of Doria, Kris, and Kim was released. The duo closes out by guessing how much Princess Charolette is worth before naming the Spotted Dick of the week. Until next time, may God save the Betch.

    Our 2024 Monarchy Predictions

    Prince Andrew is a long-term problem? Yeah, duh.

Ignore the hate

As H&M can attest to—the Royals can bring out ALL the hate and vitriol. This is a great pod and the unscripted banter isn’t for everyone but like it or not this is the dumb banter people have. If you don’t like it—just move on. Why does it bother you so much? Just find a different podcast lol

The Crown (Anti-Grand) Finale

This podcast was the best and could not be sadder it’s over but we need a special episode about
The Crowns final season…the underwhelming Kate
and Wills storyline, what was actually true and did the queen really consider stepping down?!

MissO1992 ,

Please come back!

I commute 45 min each way and your pod cast was the joy of my life. My drive is miserable. I’m so desperate I’m listing your old pod cast a 3rd time. What can I do you get you back!!!!
