What a Creep
Royal Family PR Fiascos
Season 24, Episode 5
With the latest news of an insanely unusual news cycle that, unfortunately, includes Kate Middleton being diagnosed with cancer, we decided to speak to supreme royal expert and friend of the pod Kristen Meinzer of the Daily Fail podcast to talk about what the heck is going on with the House of Windsor. With baffling (or complete lack of?) strategic communications, a frighteningly low number of royals who can pinch-hit while King Charles is convalescing, and novice photoshopping–can this get any weirder?
