Bonus Episode: ‘The Crown’ Season 6, Part 1
Spoiler Alert: This bonus episode is all about the first four episodes of The Crown season 6! Ladies Rachel and Roberta do a deep dive with their gut reactions to part 1, who gets an Emmy for best performance, the things they fact-checked while watching, and their overall Royal Rating of episodes 1-4, plus highs and lows. Like, did Prince William really go missing for 14 hours at Balmoral? What was the real timeline leading up to Diana’s death? Why was Diana actually in Paris that fateful night? This and so much more, so grab a glass of fake (fictional?) champagne and tune in!

Happy 75th to King Charles + Special Guest Jonathan Dimbleby
Three cheers to His Majesty the King! This week, the monarchy is pulling out all the stops to celebrate a banner birthday for King Charles, which is why we were honored to welcome Jonathan Dimbleby, author of The Prince of Wales: A Biography, to the pod to talk all about Charles—his past, present and future. There's more: Romney Smith, morning reporter for NBC New York and longtime friend of the pod, also drops by to chat about the royal news of the week from the long-awaited return of The Crown(!) to Kate's first Shaping Us National Symposium (the purple suit, omg!). We're also discussing all the royal calendar overlap, Prince William's Earthshot sneakers and so much more. Grab a martini in honor of King Charles and tune in!

An Examination of Edward VIII + Special Guest Jane Marguerite Tippett
This week we’re throwing out our typical script and bringing you a special interview episode. We’re joined by author and archivist Jane Marguerite Tippett, author of the forthcoming book Once a King (out March 2024 in the U.S.), to revisit the legacy of King Edward VIII, later the Duke of Windsor. Tippett recently unearthed the unpublished notes and memoir drafts of Edward VIII’s ghostwriter, which covers the royal’s relationship with Wallis Simpson, Edward VIII’s view on the abdication, his post-royal life and more.

Customer Reviews
Prince Charles’ birthday presents
I’d love to know more about Princess Elizabeth’s statement that Prince Charles received so many gifts at his birth that she wanted to share them with other babies born that day/week/month?
My sister was one of those babies, and although my mother told the story several times, it never ended with my sister receiving a gift. Did that actually happen?
Thank you!
Favorite podcast
I look forward to this podcast every Thursday.
A highlight each week
One of the best things about Thursdays is Royally Obsessed drops! This is a great dive into all the news about the royals. The hosts are enthusiastic but not sycophants. Rachel and Roberta are Team Everyone—they are pro Wales, pro Sussex and pro C&C. But at the same time, they don’t hesitate to call out bad behavior (lookin at you Andrew).
Now when I see royal news my immediate thought is, “I can’t wait for the pod!”
A side benefit has been watching R&R’s friendship develop over the course of the show. Toasting you with the Royal Cocktail! God Save the Pod.
