Transcript
- 0:02Speaker 1: Hey, folks, it is Saturday twenty seconds, and who wants
- 0:07Speaker 1: to be a princess? And you can be an actress?
- 0:10Speaker 1: And with that, welcome to this episode of Amy and DJ.
- 0:13Speaker 1: Who gives a damn? Don't give me I don't want
- 0:15Speaker 1: a crown, give me a golden globe.
- 0:18Speaker 2: Well, yeah, she's a princess now who might return to acting?
- 0:22Speaker 2: She's still a princess, right, It's Harry, Princess Meghan, the
- 0:26Speaker 2: Duke and Duchess.
- 0:26Speaker 1: We don't call her Princess Meghan.
- 0:28Speaker 3: I guess we call her Duchess Meghan.
- 0:30Speaker 1: What we call her Prince Kate?
- 0:32Speaker 3: Don't Prince Princess Kate and Duchess Meghan.
- 0:35Speaker 1: Why didn't she call a princess?
- 0:36Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 0:37Speaker 1: But does she have the title?
- 0:38Speaker 3: I get confused? I actually I need to look that up.
- 0:41Speaker 2: I know she it's the Duke and Duchess of Sussex,
- 0:45Speaker 2: and we call them the Sussexes. But they're not working
- 0:48Speaker 2: royals now, right, they are now?
- 0:50Speaker 1: But we still call him Prince Harry.
- 0:51Speaker 3: But we still call him Prince Harry.
- 0:53Speaker 1: This is not how this episode was supposed to start,
- 0:54Speaker 1: y'all just turned into something else. He's still Prince Harry.
- 0:59Speaker 1: He can't lose title, but hers has to be bestowed
- 1:02Speaker 1: in someone. I don't know. I don't know.
- 1:03Speaker 3: There's kids are prince and princess. I know that for
- 1:06Speaker 3: a princess. Okay, I just looked it up.
- 1:09Speaker 2: She technically still holds the rank of a princess in
- 1:12Speaker 2: the UK because she's married to Prince Harry, but her
- 1:16Speaker 2: primary public title.
- 1:17Speaker 3: Is Duchess of Sussex.
- 1:19Speaker 1: Primary. Yeah, but I can call her Princess Megan.
- 1:22Speaker 2: You can refer to her as Princess Meghan, but I
- 1:24Speaker 2: don't feel like anybody does.
- 1:26Speaker 1: Nobody does. I'll take it back then. So, no, she
- 1:28Speaker 1: doesn't have to decide between being a princess and an actress.
- 1:30Speaker 1: She can be both because Princess Meghan is going back
- 1:33Speaker 1: into being actress Megan. Maybe is this a done deal now?
- 1:39Speaker 3: It seems like it is.
- 1:39Speaker 2: The Hollywood reporter says that she is in quote advanced
- 1:44Speaker 2: discussions to join Guy Ritchie's The Gentleman.
- 1:48Speaker 3: I have not seen this Netflix series.
- 1:50Speaker 2: It's about to debut it's season two, I believe on September.
- 1:55Speaker 3: Third, but they will begin shooting what they believe will
- 2:00Speaker 3: be a third season.
- 2:01Speaker 2: I say what they will believe because it hasn't been
- 2:03Speaker 2: officially announced.
- 2:04Speaker 3: Yet that there is a third season, But that is
- 2:07Speaker 3: what it.
- 2:08Speaker 1: Is coming, is reporting it's coming. Yes, you know why.
- 2:12Speaker 3: Because Princess Megan is going to be on it and
- 2:15Speaker 3: everyone is going to be watching.
- 2:17Speaker 1: So yeah, of course you have to pull whatever netwhere
- 2:19Speaker 1: he says Netflix, Netflix, they are running. Oh yeah, they've
- 2:22Speaker 1: been in a business in.
- 2:23Speaker 2: A relationship already with Netflix where she had one for sure.
- 2:26Speaker 3: Look, yes, this all came down.
- 2:29Speaker 1: What's the Gentleman about?
- 2:30Speaker 2: By the way, So it's described as an action slash
- 2:33Speaker 2: comedy series.
- 2:36Speaker 1: What's kind of like Kim Garda in the show?
- 2:39Speaker 3: Oh my god, we can only hope.
- 2:40Speaker 1: How amazing was that second season coming back?
- 2:43Speaker 3: Oh I'm waiting for that.
- 2:45Speaker 1: I'm going off the rail.
- 2:47Speaker 2: Anyway, get ussis?
- 2:51Speaker 3: Yes, what's the Gentleman?
- 2:54Speaker 1: I've never heard of it? Have you heard of it? Even?
- 2:56Speaker 1: Does it have another big name in it that we
- 2:58Speaker 1: would know? Nothing? Okay, so I'm not.
- 3:00Speaker 3: I just know guy Ritchie and that's obviously we know
- 3:02Speaker 3: his name.
- 3:03Speaker 1: Used to be married to Madonna. I'm all over the
- 3:05Speaker 1: place today, I apologize.
- 3:07Speaker 2: So it's an action comedy crime series that would be
- 3:10Speaker 2: in her wheelhow comedy crime okay, set in the same
- 3:13Speaker 2: criminal universe as his twenty nineteen movie, which we did
- 3:17Speaker 2: not see.
- 3:17Speaker 1: What's a movie called The Gentleman?
- 3:20Speaker 2: And Eddie Horneman, played by Theo James is a young
- 3:25Speaker 2: aristocrat who unexpectedly inherits his late father's sprawling English country estate,
- 3:31Speaker 2: only to discover it houses a massive, hidden cannabis empire
- 3:36Speaker 2: run by a notorious criminal syndicate.
- 3:39Speaker 1: Okay, I'm looking at We like THEO James. That's the
- 3:41Speaker 1: guy from The Monkey.
- 3:43Speaker 3: We love Theater.
- 3:43Speaker 1: We like THEO James. Okay. And he's in the commercial
- 3:46Speaker 1: where he's driving the range Rover up the steps for
- 3:49Speaker 1: some stupid reason after he goes and fetches a ball
- 3:51Speaker 1: for a dog. It's ridiculous. Okay, But anyway, that guy,
- 3:54Speaker 1: I like that guy. Okay. So he's going to be
- 3:57Speaker 1: in So he's in The Gentleman. She's going to joining
- 4:00Speaker 1: Do we know if it's a starring role?
- 4:01Speaker 2: Perhaps they have not said whether or not that she
- 4:07Speaker 2: is going to be They say she's been offered a
- 4:09Speaker 2: role in the upcoming potential third season.
- 4:14Speaker 1: Their wink wink. I assume it shoots there, right.
- 4:17Speaker 3: It shoots in the UK.
- 4:19Speaker 1: Okay, so what did you think when you first heard this?
- 4:21Speaker 3: Now it all makes sense.
- 4:23Speaker 1: The move makes sense.
- 4:24Speaker 2: Because look again, we are obviously and understandably and everyone
- 4:29Speaker 2: should be leery of people who claim to know what's
- 4:32Speaker 2: going on inside the home of Harry and Meg that
- 4:36Speaker 2: there have been plenty of leagues and for a while
- 4:39Speaker 2: now I'm sure you've read them too, people saying that
- 4:41Speaker 2: Harry wants to go back a because of his father's
- 4:45Speaker 2: situation dealing with cancer.
- 4:47Speaker 1: He is.
- 4:49Speaker 2: An older man who has cancer, So yes, he would
- 4:52Speaker 2: like to be closer to his family, and he would
- 4:55Speaker 2: be more comfortable in the country that he was raised in,
- 5:00Speaker 2: the country that he knows and loved, and he feels
- 5:03Speaker 2: like an outsider in California and he has been expressing that.
- 5:07Speaker 2: And look, obviously we know why Megan might be reticent
- 5:10Speaker 2: to go back in everything she experienced there. I mean,
- 5:13Speaker 2: you could argue that they were run out of the UK. Yes,
- 5:17Speaker 2: they certainly fled the UK.
- 5:20Speaker 1: Uh mexit.
- 5:20Speaker 3: I love that mexit is what it was called.
- 5:23Speaker 2: So for her to want to go back, we were
- 5:25Speaker 2: That's why part of it was so shocking, because they
- 5:28Speaker 2: have been so outspoken about how they were treated and
- 5:31Speaker 2: how they've been hounded and they want security. By the way,
- 5:34Speaker 2: I've never seen the front of either one of their
- 5:36Speaker 2: children's faces, which is kind of remarkable. It seems like
- 5:40Speaker 2: that might be even impossible for them to continue once
- 5:43Speaker 2: they go back to the UK. So for her to
- 5:45Speaker 2: go back and put herself in that situation again, it
- 5:50Speaker 2: makes sense that if she is going to get an
- 5:52Speaker 2: acting role where she can return to what she loves
- 5:55Speaker 2: and frankly, I think what a lot of people would
- 5:56Speaker 2: say she's good at she gets. Look, it has gone
- 6:00Speaker 2: so well for her with the lifestyle. What was she
- 6:03Speaker 2: trying to be a lifestyle guru?
- 6:05Speaker 1: She wanted to be a royal Martha Stewart.
- 6:08Speaker 3: It didn't.
- 6:09Speaker 1: It didn't like we know, I love that shot.
- 6:11Speaker 3: Well, yeah, you loved it because you were laughing at it.
- 6:14Speaker 1: I wasn't. I thought it was well shot. I was
- 6:16Speaker 1: amazed by what I was seeing. I was genuinely I
- 6:20Speaker 1: thought it was beautiful everything that was laid out, and
- 6:23Speaker 1: it was confusing. What are we doing? What are we
- 6:27Speaker 1: trying to do? What am I trying to learn? I
- 6:28Speaker 1: actually I ended up feeling like it was just warioristic,
- 6:32Speaker 1: and which is fine as well, But I don't know
- 6:35Speaker 1: how that went.
- 6:36Speaker 2: When you're trying to shake this notion that you're a certain,
- 6:41Speaker 2: you know, type of person, and then you start showing
- 6:44Speaker 2: a sprawling California home and all your perfect visions of
- 6:48Speaker 2: vegetables and your perfect flowers.
- 6:49Speaker 1: And I heard later at that's not even their house.
- 6:53Speaker 2: It's not And people were yeah because she and then
- 6:56Speaker 2: she explained she didn't want eighty production people in her home,
- 7:00Speaker 2: which I understand, but yes, but at first we all
- 7:04Speaker 2: did think that was their home.
- 7:05Speaker 3: So it felt a little fine.
- 7:08Speaker 1: But except to your point here, you think that this
- 7:16Speaker 1: and I know in some places it's reporting this played
- 7:19Speaker 1: a factor in her going back.
- 7:21Speaker 2: Yes, and every like everyone who's reporting this say, ah,
- 7:25Speaker 2: now it makes sense.
- 7:27Speaker 3: This gave her what a.
- 7:31Speaker 1: Purpose?
- 7:32Speaker 3: Yes, a purpose and a plan.
- 7:34Speaker 2: And look, it does seem like she might have been
- 7:36Speaker 2: kind of twisting in the wind. Look, they have what
- 7:38Speaker 2: a fourteen million dollar Montecito mansion that they are not
- 7:43Speaker 2: recording to reports. They are not going to sell, they
- 7:45Speaker 2: are going to keep it. They also have a home
- 7:47Speaker 2: in Portugal. Look, we have talked about this people. Oh,
- 7:52Speaker 2: they have tons of money. They've been cut off from
- 7:53Speaker 2: the royal family financially, and money only goes so far
- 7:57Speaker 2: when you have massive bills to pay like that. So yeah,
- 8:01Speaker 2: that has to be a little concerning. And so for
- 8:05Speaker 2: her to be able to feel like she's back doing
- 8:07Speaker 2: what she loves. She gave up acting in twenty seventeen. Babe,
- 8:10Speaker 2: that was eight years ago.
- 8:12Speaker 1: Okay, remind me of the acting career.
- 8:15Speaker 3: Suits. I mean, that's really the.
- 8:18Speaker 1: Only Oh, sweetheart, I thought you were going to see
- 8:20Speaker 1: something else.
- 8:22Speaker 3: She did seven? Was it? Seven seasons of Suits?
- 8:27Speaker 1: So does Rachel's Does she have other significant credits?
- 8:32Speaker 3: Not that I am aware of.
- 8:34Speaker 1: Let me again, Is there a movie I've missed that
- 8:37Speaker 1: she's been in that was out in theaters?
- 8:40Speaker 3: Okay, here's what we've got. She was in Suits, yep,
- 8:43Speaker 3: from twenty eleven to twenty eighteen.
- 8:45Speaker 1: You've mentioned.
- 8:46Speaker 2: Okay, she had two episodes on nine O two one
- 8:49Speaker 2: oh in two thousand and eight.
- 8:51Speaker 3: She played Wendy.
- 8:52Speaker 1: Two thousand and eight, still it was a reboot. Stop.
- 8:57Speaker 3: Then she had two episodes on two thousand and nine.
- 9:00Speaker 2: Fringe exactly, and she just two episodes, and then she
- 9:06Speaker 2: had she was a briefcase model and a suitcase holder
- 9:10Speaker 2: for Deal or No Deal from two thousand and six
- 9:12Speaker 2: to two thousand and seven.
- 9:13Speaker 3: I remember this. It's embarrassing, like I'm not trying to
- 9:15Speaker 3: put her down for that, but given where she is
- 9:18Speaker 3: now and the actress she wanted to be, she was
- 9:20Speaker 3: basically like a price is Right girl for Deal or
- 9:22Speaker 3: No Deal. She is a cute girl holding the suit
- 9:25Speaker 3: I used to watch the show.
- 9:26Speaker 2: Actually, I watched this game show she I didn't remember
- 9:29Speaker 2: her specifically from it, but I remember now seeing video
- 9:32Speaker 2: of it. She would hold a suitcase and would open
- 9:35Speaker 2: up yes yes with money with cash in it, and.
- 9:40Speaker 3: So she was on that. She did thirty four episodes
- 9:43Speaker 3: for one season.
- 9:43Speaker 1: Really, oh, she was a regular one.
- 9:46Speaker 2: Season a Deal or No Deal, two episodes of a
- 9:49Speaker 2: show called Fringe, where she played junior FBI agent. She
- 9:52Speaker 2: has a role that she tends to go into crime shows.
- 9:55Speaker 2: She did two episodes of.
- 9:56Speaker 3: Nine O two one zero, and then the role that
- 9:58Speaker 3: we all know her from.
- 10:00Speaker 2: I mean seven seasons. That's seven years and it was
- 10:03Speaker 2: a popular show. And by the way, when they put
- 10:05Speaker 2: it back on, it exploded in popularity because yes, Princess
- 10:10Speaker 2: Megan was.
- 10:11Speaker 1: Well, I think that's cool, and I think hearing about
- 10:14Speaker 1: the deal and or Deal thing is actually one of
- 10:17Speaker 1: my favorite things I've ever heard about her resume. It
- 10:19Speaker 1: just means, you know, you struggle through things everybody some way.
- 10:24Speaker 1: And I think that's awesome that the girl standing there
- 10:26Speaker 1: holding a damn briefcase showing dollar signs ends up the
- 10:31Speaker 1: princess of whatever or the duchess of whatever. I think
- 10:35Speaker 1: that's a wonder. So I don't knock her for that.
- 10:37Speaker 1: I'm just saying she's returning to acting. Right she gave
- 10:44Speaker 1: up when was the show canceled? I'm trying she leave
- 10:50Speaker 1: the show because she was dating him as well.
- 10:52Speaker 2: I'm asking yes, because the show went on. I believe
- 10:57Speaker 2: through twenty eighteen. She left acting in twenty seventeen. She
- 11:00Speaker 2: was engaged when she became engaged to harry, and then
- 11:05Speaker 2: she got married to him in twenty eighteen. But she
- 11:07Speaker 2: apparently they say she gave up acting in twenty seventeen.
- 11:10Speaker 3: Twenty eighteen.
- 11:11Speaker 1: Okay, I mean, I don't know how dramatic of a
- 11:15Speaker 1: return this is not again Robes a big and again
- 11:20Speaker 1: don't want to in any way trying to impugne her
- 11:23Speaker 1: work as an actress. I'm just saying a return to
- 11:26Speaker 1: acting is like she left a huge radios Hollywood career.
- 11:31Speaker 2: She did not have a grandiose Hollywood career, but she
- 11:33Speaker 2: yes and so by the way, Suits ran for two
- 11:35Speaker 2: additional seasons after Megan left. So she did leave a
- 11:39Speaker 2: show and leave a role, a paying role and a
- 11:41Speaker 2: regular role on a hit show.
- 11:45Speaker 1: But she said that be married. I'm leaving because I'm engaged. Correct,
- 11:48Speaker 1: she said this.
- 11:49Speaker 2: She left acting behind to be with Harry and so, yes,
- 11:53Speaker 2: and then they moved to California.
- 11:56Speaker 3: I believe so too.
- 11:58Speaker 1: I think she'd have that Montecito home just by her
- 12:01Speaker 1: acting career alone. Now, okay, and that's okay, that's not
- 12:05Speaker 1: in any way. This is me actually being supportive of
- 12:07Speaker 1: the decisions she made. Yes, she made the right call.
- 12:10Speaker 3: But are you with me?
- 12:11Speaker 2: Because I actually look, people have very different feelings about
- 12:14Speaker 2: Meghan Markle. But I'm actually excited because you know what
- 12:16Speaker 2: I think, you and I both know what it's like.
- 12:18Speaker 1: You're talking about kids. Is that your excitement?
- 12:21Speaker 2: I'm excited about the kids. No, I'm excited about Meghan
- 12:23Speaker 2: having a purpose again. Oh, that has to be tough.
- 12:25Speaker 2: I'm thinking of her as a mom and I thought.
- 12:27Speaker 1: She did though. Baby, she's been doing the show and well, so, okay,
- 12:30Speaker 1: that's fine, but she hasn't been sitting around as a
- 12:32Speaker 1: little princess kind of a thing.
- 12:34Speaker 2: But Netflix just announced in March that it's it was
- 12:36Speaker 2: exiting Markle's Markle's lifestyle brand and as a business partner,
- 12:41Speaker 2: so they they cut ties with her, and the deal
- 12:44Speaker 2: that they had with This with Love Megan was downgraded
- 12:49Speaker 2: to just a first look deal last year, so she's
- 12:51Speaker 2: basically out of a job. Now, she doesn't have the
- 12:55Speaker 2: lifestyle brand that she was developing.
- 12:57Speaker 3: It's over now, So what does she do now?
- 12:59Speaker 1: She tries thing, she's transitioning, and that's okay.
- 13:02Speaker 2: I think that's great and impressied awesome, and it's okay
- 13:05Speaker 2: that she tried it and it didn't work out the
- 13:07Speaker 2: way maybe she wanted it to.
- 13:08Speaker 3: But now the fact that she's returning back to acting,
- 13:10Speaker 3: I'm excited for her.
- 13:11Speaker 2: I feel like this is good for her as a woman,
- 13:14Speaker 2: as a as a wife and a mother.
- 13:16Speaker 3: I think to feel like she's got some purpose again.
- 13:18Speaker 2: I'm sure, Look, you've got this career, and you've got
- 13:20Speaker 2: these hopes and dreams, and yes, you fall in love
- 13:22Speaker 2: and you become a princess, but then none.
- 13:24Speaker 3: Of it turns out the way you think it's going to, and.
- 13:27Speaker 2: You're on every tabloid, you're trashed when you leave, they
- 13:30Speaker 2: call it mexet. I mean, that's all incredibly demoralizing. So
- 13:33Speaker 2: I actually think that maybe going back, if she's got
- 13:36Speaker 2: something that she's proud of, that she can work on,
- 13:38Speaker 2: that she can be.
- 13:41Speaker 3: Acclaimed, like she.
- 13:42Speaker 2: Can actually feel like she's done something with purpose and
- 13:44Speaker 2: meaning and something that utilizes what she does best.
- 13:48Speaker 3: I think that's good for everyone. So I'm hopeful.
- 13:53Speaker 1: I she's going to have to live a public life.
- 13:58Speaker 1: This is going to take a while before she ever
- 14:01Speaker 1: gets back into the good graces of a majority of
- 14:04Speaker 1: folks there.
- 14:05Speaker 2: And will she ever get in the good graces of
- 14:07Speaker 2: the royal family again? Will she and Harry ever?
- 14:10Speaker 1: But that had to be a consideration ahead of time.
- 14:13Speaker 1: This has to be reconciliation. This has to be And
- 14:17Speaker 1: I love that part of it, the idea of them
- 14:20Speaker 1: what do they call that balcony, the one the queen
- 14:22Speaker 1: stood out on for her? Do you believe whatever that
- 14:24Speaker 1: thing called? Imagine all of them standing there.
- 14:26Speaker 3: Together, amazing, That would be amazing.
- 14:29Speaker 1: Her included, but Groves, she says some really bad stuff.
- 14:33Speaker 2: Both she and Harry, and Harry maybe even more so
- 14:35Speaker 2: than Megan in defense of his wife, so she's still
- 14:39Speaker 2: a part of it. But when we come back, we're
- 14:40Speaker 2: going to talk about what we've learned about any potential
- 14:44Speaker 2: royal role that these two could have, and what Queen
- 14:49Speaker 2: Elizabeth said back.
- 14:50Speaker 3: In twenty twenty.
- 14:50Speaker 2: I had forgotten about this because they at one point
- 14:53Speaker 2: had proposed a hybrid model where they could be partial
- 14:57Speaker 2: royal duties and then and also have partial independence. Let's
- 15:02Speaker 2: see if they can try to pull a fast one
- 15:05Speaker 2: on the Royal family and welcome back everyone to Amy
- 15:17Speaker 2: and TJ. I think it's some exciting news that Meghan
- 15:20Speaker 2: Markle will be returning, potentially to the small screen as
- 15:24Speaker 2: an actress. We will absolutely be watching. It's reported that
- 15:28Speaker 2: she's going to get a role in the not announced
- 15:33Speaker 2: yet third season of Guy Ritchie's The Gentleman. But in
- 15:36Speaker 2: terms of how they're going to fit into the Royal family, look,
- 15:40Speaker 2: this is gonna be a little tough because they are
- 15:44Speaker 2: reportedly taking a residence outside of London that is not
- 15:47Speaker 2: in any way affiliated with the Royal family. And look,
- 15:51Speaker 2: according to a source at Buckingham Palace, King Charles has said,
- 15:55Speaker 2: it is clear there are no plans to alter Harry
- 15:58Speaker 2: and Meghan's status as private individuals, non working royals, because
- 16:04Speaker 2: this was an agreement they came to with Queen Elizabeth
- 16:07Speaker 2: six years ago. They tried to try and be halfway in,
- 16:11Speaker 2: halfway out, and she said absolutely not. The previous News
- 16:16Speaker 2: Hour reporting that Queen Elizabeth said, though we would have
- 16:19Speaker 2: preferred them to remain full time working members of the
- 16:22Speaker 2: royal family, we respect and understand their wish to live
- 16:25Speaker 2: a more independent life as a family while remaining a
- 16:28Speaker 2: valued part of my family.
- 16:30Speaker 3: That last part has gone away.
- 16:32Speaker 1: Wow, that was a pretty good statement by Queen Great.
- 16:36Speaker 3: She wasn't she the best? I wanted to like.
- 16:40Speaker 1: I saw that.
- 16:40Speaker 3: I thought she just threaded that needle perfectly.
- 16:43Speaker 1: That was pretty good. That was a that was pretty good,
- 16:46Speaker 1: as we say, a masterclass. That was pretty good. I
- 16:48Speaker 1: don't remember that statement. That's that's awesome, and that's it
- 16:52Speaker 1: should have been that way. There's no way again, this
- 16:56Speaker 1: is all your heart breaks because we all love Princess Die.
- 17:03Speaker 1: Find somebody who's pissed about Princess Die. Find anybody who
- 17:08Speaker 1: can have a negative thing to say about Princess Die.
- 17:10Speaker 1: You'll struggle to find it robes. These were her babies.
- 17:14Speaker 2: Yes, and it is also reported that it's the Spencer
- 17:17Speaker 2: family who has kind of put their arms around Harry
- 17:20Speaker 2: and Meghan when they went to the UK.
- 17:24Speaker 3: Diana's brother Charles. Sorry, Yes, the Spencer family. That's Princess Die's.
- 17:29Speaker 2: Family that they have been very welcoming to Prince Harry
- 17:33Speaker 2: and Princess Meghan. And you can understand why they want
- 17:36Speaker 2: to be a part of those kids' lives. You know,
- 17:38Speaker 2: that's his sister's grandchildren and they don't have the grandmother
- 17:43Speaker 2: that the world loved so much, and so how cool
- 17:46Speaker 2: is that at.
- 17:47Speaker 1: Least you don't have grandpa either. I know they have
- 17:49Speaker 1: one I know, black grandmother in Compton. How about that
- 17:57Speaker 1: the only grandparent that a prince and Princess of the
- 18:04Speaker 1: UK have is a black woman from Compton. That is
- 18:07Speaker 1: the highlight of the story. That's true.
- 18:09Speaker 3: That's a true statement. So yes, but we reported on
- 18:12Speaker 3: and this was a big deal. We don't have pictures
- 18:14Speaker 3: of it or.
- 18:15Speaker 2: Anything, but yes, that those two grandkids, Lillabet and Archie
- 18:19Speaker 2: were actually able to reunite with King Charles, their grandfather
- 18:22Speaker 2: for the first time seven and five.
- 18:26Speaker 3: Yeah, they're much right. I mean that is time flies.
- 18:30Speaker 2: But yes, they have been enrolled in a British school,
- 18:33Speaker 2: so we know in terms of the timing that they're
- 18:35Speaker 2: going to be there at least for the school year.
- 18:39Speaker 3: So that's one thing.
- 18:41Speaker 2: And then the question is will they remain And I
- 18:43Speaker 2: think that probably remains to be seen based on how
- 18:46Speaker 2: they're treated, what life is like for them there.
- 18:49Speaker 3: How the acting role goes for Megan.
- 18:52Speaker 2: But look Harry, just in the announcement of him going
- 18:55Speaker 2: back over and meeting with his father and having Meghan
- 18:58Speaker 2: come over.
- 18:59Speaker 3: Look his we all know his approval ratings. Do they
- 19:02Speaker 3: even call them that when it.
- 19:03Speaker 1: Comes to members of the in front of me the
- 19:05Speaker 1: Royal family favorability ratings from July of twenty twenty six.
- 19:09Speaker 3: Well, that's amazing, I said that, and you had them
- 19:11Speaker 3: ready to go. I'm so impressed with you.
- 19:13Speaker 1: Hey, like the Boy Scouts, right always prepares. I use
- 19:17Speaker 1: that reverence the other day here at home privately, and
- 19:19Speaker 1: then I said, you know, I've never been to Boy
- 19:21Speaker 1: Scouts and I.
- 19:21Speaker 2: Said, duh, yeah, you would never want to camp in
- 19:25Speaker 2: a sleeping bag, and so that would be part of
- 19:27Speaker 2: what would be required.
- 19:28Speaker 1: There were some other things that would turn me off
- 19:30Speaker 1: to the.
- 19:30Speaker 3: Boy Scouts outside in the woods.
- 19:32Speaker 1: Well, some other things still about the boy Scouts. Anyway, Man,
- 19:35Speaker 1: I've gone off the rails a lot in this episode.
- 19:38Speaker 1: We should stop recording live on Saturdays. But yes, folks,
- 19:41Speaker 1: we don't, if you've ever wondered, No, we don't take
- 19:45Speaker 1: these ahead of time. We do these in real time
- 19:48Speaker 1: on the actual day. But yes, Robes, how about this.
- 19:54Speaker 1: There is at the bottom of all the royals and
- 19:56Speaker 1: favorability is Andrew.
- 19:58Speaker 3: That makes a lot of because, yeah, because he's a
- 20:04Speaker 3: rapist according to some Epstein victims.
- 20:07Speaker 1: Yes, okay, so he's at the bottom. Who do you
- 20:09Speaker 1: think is right above him?
- 20:11Speaker 3: Prince Harry.
- 20:13Speaker 4: No, Megan Markle, his wife, Megan Megan Markle. Oh, Meghan Markle,
- 20:20Speaker 4: Harry's wife. Yes, okay, yes, I believe Megan Markle.
- 20:24Speaker 1: In terms of the royals ranks, just ahead of Andrew.
- 20:29Speaker 3: What's the do you have like a percentage or is
- 20:32Speaker 3: it just the ranking? You know?
- 20:33Speaker 1: Actually the Andrews. It's so small. I can't it doesn't
- 20:38Speaker 1: rate never mind, no, no, no, forget it, forget it again. Yeah,
- 20:40Speaker 1: it's so small. The color they have on what his
- 20:44Speaker 1: his favorability rating is it's.
- 20:46Speaker 3: Non Existen doesn't have like a negative in front of.
- 20:48Speaker 1: Him negatives ninety two. He has a ninety two negative.
- 20:51Speaker 3: Oh my goodness, hers is sixty five.
- 20:55Speaker 1: Her favorability rating is twenty two and just thirteen. Don't
- 21:00Speaker 1: up a damn Yeah. Above that, you go with a princess,
- 21:04Speaker 1: Eugenie Eugenie, and then Beatrice Beatrice, and then you got Harry.
- 21:10Speaker 3: Why are the daughters of Andrew?
- 21:13Speaker 1: So maybe they get covered differently over there? We don't
- 21:16Speaker 1: see them a lot here and talk about I don't
- 21:18Speaker 1: know the sense of the father.
- 21:20Speaker 2: Should I would perhaps should maybe they just transfer onto
- 21:23Speaker 2: his offspring because man, they look like him. Maybe it's
- 21:26Speaker 2: hard to separate it because don't don't you think they
- 21:29Speaker 2: look so much like Andrew and not that much like Fergie.
- 21:33Speaker 1: I don't know. Actually, I think one looks like I
- 21:35Speaker 1: don't know which is which I don't keep.
- 21:36Speaker 2: One of them looks like I'm like, one looks like
- 21:40Speaker 2: I see Andrew's face completely.
- 21:42Speaker 3: In that, and that's got to be tough.
- 21:44Speaker 1: So after that, yes, you got Harry and then above
- 21:46Speaker 1: Harry Queen cameo. Does that make sense? Wow?
- 21:49Speaker 3: Because she was the other woman she used to be.
- 21:52Speaker 2: She should actually embrace Harry and Megan because they are
- 21:55Speaker 2: boosting her up on that list because she was not.
- 21:58Speaker 3: I mean, things have changed a lot in the years, but.
- 22:01Speaker 2: My god, she's suffered greatly with pr and public sentiment.
- 22:05Speaker 1: So they're going back robes, and we wonder how Megan's
- 22:09Speaker 1: going to be received, Harry being received When they're right
- 22:11Speaker 1: and Harry's favorability is a thirty three percent that for
- 22:14Speaker 1: a president, you would go, holy hell, it's terrible reelected.
- 22:17Speaker 3: They said it ticked up slightly after this.
- 22:21Speaker 1: I do remember him being closer to the bottom with
- 22:24Speaker 1: his wife. Correct, she hasn't ticked up.
- 22:25Speaker 3: She is not because they don't like that.
- 22:27Speaker 2: She wasn't there in London and she refused to come
- 22:29Speaker 2: and she met them outside of London. So look, there's
- 22:33Speaker 2: an opportunity when you're that low. I guess they could
- 22:36Speaker 2: go on, you can't below Andrew, you can't, oh oh on.
- 22:40Speaker 1: I don't think that's the threat rolls, but the threat
- 22:42Speaker 1: of her going lower. What if people receive this that
- 22:45Speaker 1: way that oh, she's just coming back here because she
- 22:47Speaker 1: has an acting opportunity. This is an American woman and
- 22:50Speaker 1: for a lot of folks there, this isn't a black
- 22:53Speaker 1: American woman, a.
- 22:54Speaker 3: Divorced black American woman.
- 22:56Speaker 1: Add that to the way, did we continue? Who is
- 22:59Speaker 1: self serving? Who cause these two boys to not these
- 23:02Speaker 1: boys we adore to fall out? These two don't even
- 23:06Speaker 1: talk anymore.
- 23:08Speaker 3: She's the rift that divides them.
- 23:10Speaker 1: So let me ask you this now, is this going
- 23:12Speaker 1: to be Harry and Megan's next problem? That the most
- 23:16Speaker 1: popular royals in terms of favorability at seventy six and
- 23:20Speaker 1: seventy four are William and Kate. And that's not surprising
- 23:25Speaker 1: if the public adores those two.
- 23:28Speaker 3: They have some kissing up to do. They have some
- 23:31Speaker 3: making up to do.
- 23:32Speaker 2: And look, there are a lot of reports that Camilla
- 23:34Speaker 2: and William especially are so angry at what Harry wrote
- 23:40Speaker 2: about them in Spare and that that is going to be.
- 23:46Speaker 3: Almost insurmountable.
- 23:47Speaker 2: I mean, maybe they can obviously get better than where
- 23:50Speaker 2: they are now, but in terms of total forgiveness and
- 23:53Speaker 2: a welcome hug back into the family at Christmas time,
- 23:57Speaker 2: that might be pushing things a little bit too out there.
- 23:59Speaker 1: In print, that's something about that reads you can't take
- 24:03Speaker 1: that back, you can't like make it do another interview
- 24:06Speaker 1: like a follow up tweet, you can't do that.
- 24:09Speaker 3: He aired their dirty laundry and it's there for all time.
- 24:13Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, but yeah, well when I watch, I don't know.
- 24:18Speaker 1: I've never seen suits. To be honest, I've never seen
- 24:20Speaker 1: her act I.
- 24:20Speaker 3: Haven't watched either.
- 24:22Speaker 2: But funny enough, Ava, who is an aspiring actress and
- 24:27Speaker 2: she could be critical. She was like, honestly, mom, she's
- 24:29Speaker 2: good like and so it made me want to maybe
- 24:31Speaker 2: even watch, but I would be So this is going
- 24:34Speaker 2: to be exciting to see if we get to actually
- 24:36Speaker 2: watch her in action.
- 24:38Speaker 3: That is.
- 24:39Speaker 2: And by the way, Netflix where she had this the
- 24:41Speaker 2: deal that didn't go the way she wanted it to
- 24:43Speaker 2: the fact that it's Netflix, they already have a relationship
- 24:45Speaker 2: with her, They already know what it's like to work
- 24:47Speaker 2: with her, So it sounds like it could be the
- 24:49Speaker 2: perfect entrance back into doing what she loves.
- 24:53Speaker 1: This is amazing. I wonder what roll and what it
- 24:55Speaker 1: would be, what it would look like, and also do
- 24:57Speaker 1: you have to I mean roll, you're a you are
- 25:00Speaker 1: a royal. Can you only take certain types of roles
- 25:03Speaker 1: doing certain types of things? Yes, she's going to be
- 25:08Speaker 1: executing people. Is she going to be a seductress. Is
- 25:11Speaker 1: she going to I mean thinking about that?
- 25:13Speaker 2: Wow?
- 25:14Speaker 1: This is great now okay, now I got it. Now
- 25:17Speaker 1: I'm here for it now. All right, folks, just want
- 25:19Speaker 1: to hop on because we had thoughts. I'm sure you
- 25:22Speaker 1: do too. We appreciate you as always. On t j
- 25:24Speaker 1: on behalf of my dear Amy Robock. We'll talk to you, als,
