Privately, the royal family had long been bracing for the inevitable fallout surrounding Prince Andrew's association with Jeffrey Epstein. Insiders described an atmosphere of quiet dread within palace walls—where the Duke of York's behavior, arrogance, and questionable friendships were seen as a ticking time bomb. His extravagant lifestyle, insistence on maintaining ties with Epstein even after the financier's first conviction, and tone-deaf interviews all fed the sense that scandal wasn't a matter of if, but when. Behind closed doors, senior royals were said to be exasperated, viewing Andrew as a liability whose judgment could one day drag the monarchy into the kind of moral quagmire it hadn't seen since the abdication crisis.When that shoe finally dropped, with Epstein's arrest and Virginia Roberts Giuffre's allegations thrusting Andrew's name into global headlines, the sense of inevitability inside the palace turned into damage control. The Queen reportedly struggled to balance maternal loyalty with institutional preservation, while Prince Charles and Prince William quietly pushed for exile to protect the crown's reputation. What followed wasn't just a family crisis—it was a confirmation of their worst fears. The royal family's careful machinery of silence, denial, and image management could no longer contain the scandal. Andrew's downfall wasn't sudden; it was the slow-motion collapse they had all seen coming for years.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

With COP30 about to open in Belém, the UK's absence from this major forest finance deal is raising eyebrows.Meanwhile, Prince William, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Energy and Climate Change Minister Ed Miliband have been in Brazil this week, demonstrating the country's continued commitment to the COP process.Christiana Figueres and Tom Rivett-Carnac sit down with Ed Miliband for a wide-ranging and candid conversation about credible climate leadership, the defence of multilateralism, and why the right is wrong to claim voters don't care about the climate.Recorded just after the Leaders' Summit, 36 hours before COP30 begins, this episode dives into the apparent contradictions in the UK's actions this week, and asks: how can climate ambition survive amidst political polarisation and harsh economic realities?Learn more:

Prince Andrew, Duke of York attempted a comeback into public royal life after formally stepping back in 2019, but the efforts were swiftly frozen by the senior royal family amid mounting scandal. After his disastrous BBC interview and the civil settlement with Virginia Giuffre in 2022, Andrew quietly hoped to rehabilitate his reputation and re-emerge at low-key royal events. Instead, in October 2025 the palace confirmed he would no longer use his Duke of York title or royal honours — a decision reportedly made in close consultation with his brother King Charles III and his son Prince William, Prince of Wales, who both viewed Andrew's presence as a continuing distraction to the monarchy.Despite murmurs of a comeback strategy — appearances at charitable events, discreet patronage involvement — the monarchy drew a hard line. Andrew's titles, honours and privileged residence at Royal Lodge near Windsor Castle were revoked or set for removal, signalling that any revival would not be sanctioned. Charles' decision to strip Andrew of his official capacity not only ended the comeback effort but demonstrated the institution's priority: preserving its integrity over personal loyalty. Analysts say the move cements an irreversible cut-off and makes any future public role for Andrew extremely unlikely.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Palace Intrigue delivers explosive royal warfare as Meghan Markle deliberately sabotages Prince William's Rio Earthshot triumph by announcing her return to acting in Amazon MGM comedy Close Personal Friends. The Duchess appears as herself alongside Brie Larson and Lily Collins, with sources declaring "this is a massive moment for Meghan"—timed precisely to steal headlines from William's globally-televised ceremony with Kylie Minogue and Shawn Mendes. Alexander Larman exposes the calculated attack: "Although Harry claims Buckingham Palace was informed of his movements, it feels like a deliberate attempt to draw attention in his own direction." The Sussex moves continue undermining William's "tightly choreographed" reset after Andrew's disgrace.Meanwhile, explosive revelations expose Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor being offered a lavish 6-bedroom Abu Dhabi waterfront palace by UAE president—his longtime Gordonstoun school friend. The Sea Palace compound villa includes home cinema, indoor pool, gym, and gold-detailed fixtures, offering the disgraced royal a golden Middle Eastern exile. Plus, Kate takes leading Armistice Day role, while Max Hastings demands royal reform declaring Andrew the "rottenest apple."Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

Then, an update on the UPS plane crash in Louisville — with at least 13 dead and 9 still missing as investigators race for answers. Pags also digs into a new House GOP probe targeting Soros-linked groups over alleged Antifa funding, asking the question everyone's thinking: “Who's really funding these people?” And — royal drama overseas as Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are reportedly set to lose their titles, while Prince William says he's ‘done' with the ongoing chaos. Then, Will Chamberlain, attorney and Senior Counsel at the Article III Project (A3P), joins the show to break down the filibuster fight, the “nuclear option,” and Judge Boseburg's looming impeachment.

In June 2022, Prince Andrew was conspicuously absent from the public procession of the Order of the Garter Day ceremony at St George's Chapel, Windsor Castle, despite being a member of the order. It was revealed that this omission was due to a so-called “family decision” — reportedly influenced by Prince Charles and Prince William — aimed at avoiding potential public backlash given Andrew's reputation at the time. His name still appeared in one version of the printed Order of Service but was omitted from the version distributed to the public.This exclusion drew criticism as a clear sign of his fall from favour within the royal family and the institution. While he did attend the private lunch and investiture portions of the ceremony, his absence from the public procession suggested a deliberate effort to sideline him in high-profile royal events, symbolising both the damage to his standing and the monarchy's need to preserve its public image amidst territorial scandal.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Recorded in Rio de Janeiro as the world's attention turned to the 2025 ceremony.As Chair of the Earthshot Prize, Christiana reflects on Prince William's vision to turn his platform into a catalyst for global good, and how the Prize has evolved into one of the most visible platforms for environmental innovation.

As world leaders gather in Brazil, Prince William tells them they must urgently work together to prevent further climate change. But how much can be achieved with the leaders of some of the world's largest CO2 emitters - the US, China, Russia and India - absent from the meeting? Also on the programme: top Democrat Nancy Pelosi announces her retirement after nearly four decades in the US Congress; and the actress Pauline Collins, best known for her roles in 'Upstairs Downstairs' and 'Shirley Valentine', has died at the age of 85. We speak to her friend and co-star Tom Conti.
World leaders are heading to Brazil ahead of the upcoming UN Climate Summit there. One of the highest profile attendees is Britain's Prince William. But before that, he's hosting his own gathering for his annual Earthshot Prize. Today, Christiane moderates the Earthshot Impact Assembly and she sat down with the man at the center of it all, Prince William.

Michael Jaco and Juan O'Savin return with a bold and revealing conversation exposing the unseen powers shaping global events and the spiritual battle unfolding beneath the surface. Together, they connect the dots between secret cults, elite networks, and the escalating war for election integrity in the United States and beyond. They begin by unpacking the political unrest in Brazil and how it mirrors Donald Trump's fight in America — revealing how the same globalist playbook is being deployed to destabilize sovereign nations and silence populist movements. The discussion intensifies with a detailed look into the Utah and Oregon election integrity lawsuits, uncovering how manipulated voter rolls and systemic corruption could trigger a national emergency declaration to restore lawful elections. From there, the conversation explores the occult symbolism behind Halloween, tracing its ancient origins and its modern use as a psychological tool of mass distraction and control. They connect these dark undercurrents to elite organizations and secret societies that feed off fear and division to maintain dominance. Juan and Michael also examine the global picture — from Venezuela's financial collapse and South Africa's rising chaos to coordinated efforts by Deep State actors and financial cartels to create global instability. Each example reveals how political corruption and spiritual decay are intertwined, driving the world toward both collapse and awakening. They close with a powerful reminder that the real war is not just political but spiritual — a battle for truth, sovereignty, and the awakening of humanity.

PM Keir Starmer flies to the Brazilian rainforest for the COP30 climate conference, a trip he almost biffed off, but the surge in polling support for the Green party may have changed his mind. He'll join Prince William and the King out in the Amazon – at the same time as considering rolling back on some of the government's climate commitments. Back home, Chancellor Rachel Reeves faces criticism over her warnings for the next budget, while she brings in experts to school Labour MPs on how budgets, debts, and deficits actually work. And there's a mini recess for Westminster, so Sam and Anne have an extra few days off. They return on Monday.
The government shutdown in the United States is set to become the longest in the country's history as Democrats and Republicans fail to agree on a new budget, leaving more than 40 million Americans who rely on food stamps facing great uncertainty.

Meghan Markle's latest video has fans rolling their eyes — and Harry looking like he'd rather be anywhere else. The Duchess celebrated the Dodgers' World Series win with a perfectly framed home-theatre video that viewers called “staged,” while a clearly unamused Prince Harry barely moved from the couch. As critics accuse her of turning private moments into PR content, new reports say Meghan's staff turnover has hit twenty-three departures since 2018. Even Harry's patience is reportedly wearing thin. Meanwhile, insiders recall that Prince William “saw right through her” years ago, calling her “trouble from the start.Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

The royal formerly known as "Prince" Andrew is only Andrew now. In what's being called 'the greatest crisis the royal family has faced in 100 years', the King has banished his brother after the distress and noise around his behaviour finally became too loud for even the insulated royals to ignore. So what now? Will it shut down critics and accusers, or just open the flood gates? Also, is it just plain embarrassing to admit to having a boyfriend now? The most viral essay of the past week says YES, so why's that? And: the politics of a pair of untethered breasts. Why Sydney Sweeney's new version of the naked dress has everyone confused.

A website claims the Palace is sketching contingency plans in case of a Sussex split, with talk of a structured settlement and tight NDAs — a claim our Royal Insider pushes back on by stressing Harry's determination to keep his family together.Commentators suggest Meghan's enthusiasm for her lifestyle venture has cooled after a downgraded Netflix deal; others warn Andrew's saga risks pulling down the late Queen's reputation. Theologians ponder whether a less religious William could reshape the monarchy's purpose even after Charles's successful Rome visit. For lighter fare, William and Catherine's apple-bread banter in Northern Ireland charmed crowds, and Earthshot heads to Rio on Nov 5 with Kylie Minogue, Shawn Mendes, Gilberto Gil, and more — “the greatest Earthshot yet.”Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.
Royal insiders say it wasn't just the King's hand behind Andrew's downfall — it was William's. The Prince of Wales reportedly pushed his father to act, cutting through years of indecision and cleaning up what sources call “his father's mess.” We explore claims that William is now “King in all but name,” the long-simmering family tension over Andrew's presence at Sandringham, and whether this marks the real passing of royal power from father to son.Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.
In this week's episode, we delve into the King's decisive move regarding his brother, Prince Andrew - stripping him of his remaining styles, titles, and honours, and declaring that he will now be known simply as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. We explore what this means for his future, his ex-wife's Sarah Ferguson, the late Queen's corgis, and how their daughters, Beatrice and Eugenie, have been putting on a brave face while abroad. Plus, we look ahead to Prince William's Earthshot Prize event in Rio and unpack the Sussexes' latest revelations from across the Atlantic. Learn more about your ad choices.

Royal tensions have reached a boiling point. Palace insiders say King Charles is privately blaming the late Queen Elizabeth II for the ongoing Prince Andrew scandal — a move that has shocked senior courtiers. Meanwhile, Harry and Meghan are facing a major backlash after briefly posting — then quickly deleting — previously unseen photos showing Archie and Lilibet’s faces during a family pumpkin patch outing, sparking a new crisis over their children’s privacy. And Prince William is taking a hard line with Andrew’s daughters, warning Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie that if their father refuses to leave Royal Lodge, their royal status could be at risk.

Harry and Meghan, who left the UK for privacy, turned up in the front row at Dodger Stadium for Game Four — cue caps, cameras, and a 6–1 loss for L.A.Meghan's pumpkin-patch reel vanished amid privacy concerns after viewers spotted the children in the background, reigniting chatter about longtime confidant Markus Anderson. OK! reports Meghan is prepared to “go it alone” with As Ever, while a flurry of briefings says Prince William plans to formally strip Prince Andrew of the Duke of York title when he becomes king, with claims he's pushing a broader slim-down of royal titles and even leaning on Beatrice and Eugenie to help move their father from Royal Lodge.One cheeky new review advises us to “Be Kind” (one star), and Windsor watchers note Andrew's Garter banner has now been removed from St George's Chapel.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

Ardern served as Prime Minister of New Zealand from 2017 to 2023, earning global admiration for her empathetic and decisive leadership through crises like the Christchurch attacks and the COVID-19 pandemic. Her trademark “be kind” approach redefined what modern political leadership could look like.In 2025, she released her memoir A Different Kind of Power, reflecting on how empathy can drive real progress. It's more than a political memoir, it's a profound insight into how it feels to lead.Since leaving office, Ardern has turned her focus to global initiatives on climate action, online safety, and compassionate leadership. She's a Senior Fellow at Harvard's Kennedy School, a Distinguished Fellow of Oxford University's Blavatnik School of Government and a Trustee of Prince William's Earthshot Prize, continuing her work to inspire change on the world stage.She was recently made a Dame Grand Companion of the New Zealand Order of Merit — a fitting recognition for a leader whose grace and humanity have left a lasting mark far beyond her time in office.We talk about:A kinder definition of leadershipMedia's new incentivesChanging the culture of engagementTaking the money out of politicsThe dangerous loss of nuanceCaring is more important than caring about politicsAllowing politicians to change their mindBuying back guns from civiliansLet's do this!Web: www.whereshallwemeet.xyzTwitter: @whrshallwemeetInstagram: @whrshallwemeet
United Kingdom correspondent Lucy Thomson spoke to Lisa Owen about reports that Prince William is involved in encouraging Prince Andrew to leave Royal Lodge, as well as Former Prime Minister Dame Jacinda Adern making an appearance in Scotland next month to promote her new film.
Prince Andrew's latest demand has drawn widespread ridicule after reports revealed that he's only willing to move out of the 30-room Royal Lodge in Windsor if he and Sarah Ferguson are each given separate replacement homes. The disgraced Duke is reportedly pushing for Frogmore Cottage—the former residence of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle—for himself, and Adelaide Cottage—currently used by Prince William and Princess Catherine—for Ferguson. The proposal is being described as an “absurd trade-off,” effectively turning what should have been a downsizing into a double housing upgrade. His insistence comes despite mounting pressure from King Charles III for him to vacate Royal Lodge, where he remains under a 75-year lease paying what has been described as a “peppercorn rent.”The demand highlights the tone-deaf entitlement that continues to define Andrew's post-scandal life. Rather than accept a single, smaller residence, he's attempting to leverage his position for even more royal property—despite being stripped of public duties and embroiled in reputational disaster over his ties to Jeffrey Epstein. Critics have blasted the move as a shameless attempt to cling to privilege and status while ignoring public outrage. The optics are particularly bad given the ongoing financial scrutiny of the royal family and the contrasting humility shown by other royals. Andrew's refusal to simply move out underscores how detached he remains from reality—a prince still playing power games in exile from relevance.to contact mebobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Prince Andrew will only give up his royal residence if one massive demand is met
Intro: Minutes 0 to 6:30 Chandra has been watching Dexter: Resurrection. She also watched The Materialists but doesn't recommend it. I saw One Battle After Another and enjoyed it. I loved The Long Walk. I have been watching a Canadian comedy called Corner Gas. Royals: Minutes 6:30 to Since we last recorded, the second season of With Love, Meghan came out and we've also had two drops of As Ever products. Harry did a four day tour of England in September, went to Ukraine and visited his dad. Meghan went to the Balenciaga show at Paris Fashion Week earlier this month. She looked serene, glowy and rich and her surprise appearance was a success. It came out that she's friends with Balenciaga's new creative director Pierpaolo Piccioli. He told The Cut that he's been friends with Meghan for years and that she asked if she could attend the show. There was a dumb manufactured controversy over Meghan's visit to Paris after she posted a little Instagram story of her feet while she was in a limo in Paris. The Daily Mail called the video insensitive and claimed she was driving near the tunnel in Paris where Princess Diana died. Meghan's video was taken over a kilometer away from the Pont de Alma tunnel. Meghan attended the Fortune Summit in Washington, DC last week where she talked about the future of her businesses. She also went to a women's networking dinner held by Emma Grede over the weekend. There was some ridiculous criticism of this dinner. On Friday, October 10th, Harry and Meghan were honored for their charity work at for World Mental Health Day in New York. Princess Kate co-authored a little essay ahead of that on how smartphones are bad. Harry and Meghan founded the Parents Network over a year ago and were being honored for that. Last week, around October 15th, Kate and Will made a surprise visit to Northern Ireland. They've been on vacation this week. On Friday, October 17th, Prince Andrew announced in the afternoon our time that he was voluntarily no longer using his titles. He's largely stepped back from royal life in the past few years but we've seen him at family events and it's obvious he has Charles' support. Charles was clearly trying to send a message to Harry by inviting Andrew to royal events. It looks like there was a deal worked out between Charles and Andrew that Andrew gets to keep Royal Lodge and his daughters get to keep their titles. Chandra thinks Charles believes Andrew's lies. We admire Virginia Guiffre for telling the truth. Andrew's announcement came a few days after we saw a 2011 email he sent Jeffrey Epstein after the release of Andrew's infamous photo with then 17-year-old Virginia Guiffre. Andrew wrote to Epstein “we are in this together” and “we'll play some more soon.” An email between Fergie and Epstein was also leaked. Fergie and Andrew wrote those emails after they claimed to have cut ties with Epstein. Fergie borrowed over $2 million from Epstein. I play a segment from an interview with British journalist Emily Maitlis, who interviewed Andrew for his infamous Newsnight interview. Andrew and ex wife Sarah Ferguson will continue to live in Royal Lodge on the Windsor estate, at least as long as Charles is alive. William wants to kick him out and there may be a parliamentary inquiry into his living arrangements. PM Kier Starmer supports an inquiry. Andrew still gets royal perks like being able to use other royal estates. Royal Lodge is sprawling, with a 30 room mansion, chapel, six cottages, pool and tennis court. Andrew has not paid rent in 20 years. He's said to spend his time playing Call of Duty and watching golf. William is trying to take credit for Andrew renouncing his titles. William has been briefing about how much he can't stand Andrew, but he was seen looking chummy with him recently. Beatrice visited her parents at Royal Lodge on Monday. There's some talk about removing Eugenie and Beatrice's titles, but Prince William doesn't seem to want this and they are blameless. Eugenie lives in Portugal is already half out but Beatrice seems to want to be a working royal. King Charles and Camilla visited the Vatican and met with Pope Leo. Camilla was wearing a black mantilla headpiece. They prayed together and it's the first time a British monarch and pope have prayed together in 500 years. This upcoming meeting was incentive for Charles to make a deal with Andrew to give up his titles. Comments of the Week: Minutes 29:30 to end Chandra's comment of the week is from Rapunzel on the post about Trump asking Camilla for the gossip on Meghan. My comment of the week is from square bologna on Kristen Bell's post about her husband saying he would never kill her.
