    The "Queen's Command" with Sarah Raughley

    We are so excited to have Author Sarah Raughley back to talk about her latest book, The Queen's Command. We LOVED this book and it is among our top reads for the day. Pick it up now wherever books are sold. https://www.harpercollins.com/products/the-queens-command-sarah-raughley -The Inheritance Games meets Bridgerton in the riveting companion novel to The Queen's Spade, where our heroine must play a deadly game and risk everything to get to the truth that’s poisoning Victorian England’s royal court. Favored by Queen Victoria, Vicky Davies has survived royal courts, financial ruin, and the loss of her mother, Sarah Forbes Bonetta — the famous African princess turned royal goddaughter — but Cheltenham Ladies’ College is about to test her in new and wicked ways. Every Thursday evening, the senior girls play a secret game and Vicky just became their latest pawn. Truths must be confessed, commands obeyed, and whoever claims the coveted title of winner will have her wish granted, no matter how outrageous and seemingly impossible it may be. But when the game yields frightening and fatal results, Vicky vows to put an end to this ghoulish tradition that twists minds and makes enemies out of friends. With dangerous foes closing in and truths that could shatter her world clawing to the surface, Vicky must uncover the secrets buried not only in Cheltenham but by her own mother. In a school where survival is a gamble, will she emerge victorious — or fall victim to its deadly game? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Prince Harry & Meghan's (Not Royal) Royal Engagements with Journalist Omid Scobie

    I don't know what blessed astrology I stepped into when I got Omid Scobie to agree to guest-host the pod BEFORE we knew about Prince Harry and Meghan's Nottingham engagements, but there is no one better to talk to than someone who was there back in 2017 for the couple's first royal visit as a newly engaged couple Omid was an Honorary Member of the Royal Rota for years and is the NYT Bestselling author of "Finding Freedom", "Endgame" and a fictional series co-authored with Robin Benway called "Royal Spin" that has it's paperback release early next year. Omid and I get into today's engagements, the press coverage, what's changed in Royal reporting since he was last in the game and why he decided to put himself back in the narrative (sorry I couldn't resist a Hamilton reference) with his brand-new Substack, Off-Script. Thanks again to Omid and we'll see you next week (Amanda too!) New episodes every Wednesday and Friday!

    Your Royal Briefing for October 14th 2026

    Hello (Hahhhloohw), it's still Meredith here with your Royal Briefing, but have no fear, Amanda will be back next week and, if not, I'll have one of those Margaret Thatcher Foundation bros deport her back to the States. In the meantime there's a ton of Royal news to discuss including: -Former Prince Andrew's court victory & King Charles footing the bill...for the payments he owes for repairs on the Royal Lodge. -A college professor accused of an actual crime who isn't getting the Dr. Jason Arday treatment. -A preview of Prince Harry & Meghan's "non-Royal" engagements on Thursday. -Will & Kate's engagements, especially Charlotte and Catherine 'spotted' on the Tube (Royals, they're just like us!) -and a very silly story about courtiers being 'too woke' about this particular sport. ______________________________ New episodes every Wednesday and Friday!

    Maybe Meghan’s not the problem after all

    It was a whirlwind week of royal reports, scandals, rumors, and appearances…and it all left us wondering, “What if Meghan wasn’t the problem after all?” From (another) security threat seemingly inspired simply by the Sussex family existing in the UK, to allegations of Buckingham Palace taking measures to address “drinking culture” in its staff quarters, it seems that with every passing news cycle we get more evidence all that glitters isn’t, in fact, gold. Plus, updates on a threatened defamation suit against Charles, Earl Spencer, and discussions of Prince William and Prince Harry’s increasingly different approaches to honoring their mother’s legacy.

    Your Royal Briefing for September 30th, 2026

    This week is all about comings and goings: Prince Edward makes a return trip to Mount Vernon to mark America's 250th, and WME's Ari Emanuel confirms the agency and Meghan split in 2025. And a social pages photo we somehow missed has us revisiting Natasha Archer's exit from Kensington Palace, plus the Wales equerry who left just before her. ______________________________ New episodes every Wednesday and Friday!
