The royal visit, the throne speech & the 1st question period are over. Now the real work of building the so-called "new Canada" begins.
For the third time in Canadian history, the head of the British monarchy delivered the throne speech before ushering in a new session of parliament. It comes at a time when Canada could use some help protecting its sovereignty in the face of threats from U.S. President Donald Trump.But how does this moment fit in with King Charles' reign so far, which has been marked by political turmoil, royal rifts, calls for reparations and cutting ties with the British monarchy? We break it all down with Ellie Hall, a freelance reporter and former official royal correspondent for BuzzFeed News.

Pod Save the King comes to you from Australia this week with Daily Mirror royal editor Russell Myers and photographer Ian Vogler discussing the upcoming Royal Visit. They discuss the Republican movement in Australia, state premiers boycotting a reception with the King, and the repatriation of Indigenous artefacts. The timing is also interesting for Australian prime minister Anthony Albanese, a sworn republican, who has been under fire recently. What can we expect from the meeting between Albanese and the King? And was Charles - when he was the Prince of Wales - taking the biscuit by not taking the Lamington cake on his last visit to New South Wales in 2018? You can get the slice of the action (sorry) from Russell and Ian in their update from the Royal Visit. Pod Save the King is a Reach Studio production, edited by Daniel J. McLaughlin.

King Charles will likely skip New Zealand during his upcoming tour to the South Pacific. According to The Mirror, he and Queen Camilla are set to visit Australia and Samoa - but have dropped New Zealand. The visit was never officially announced - just rumoured to be on the agenda. UK Correspondent Gavin Grey told Mike Hosking “His Majesty is said to be like a caged tiger - desperate to do more, while undergoing chemotherapy and having the cancer diagnosis.” Grey said “It's been decided he'd be better off doing a ten-day trip.” LISTEN ABOVE.

Royal Insider Deep Crown says:The notion that Meghan Markle's appearance at the coronation was simply an opportunity for her to 'play the princess she always wanted to be' is, in my opinion, a gross oversimplification of the situation.Being a member of the royal family is not some fairy tale or Disney movie, where one can simply don a tiara and live happily ever after. It's a life of duty, sacrifice, and unwavering commitment to the Crown and the people it serves. It's a role that comes with immense responsibility and scrutiny, and one that requires a great deal of resilience and fortitude.To suggest that Meghan merely wanted the glamour of being a royal without the 'tiresome protocol' is to do her a great disservice. It's clear that she struggled with the constraints and expectations of royal life, and that the constant media scrutiny and criticism took a heavy toll on her mental health and well-being.But to reduce her motivations to a simple desire for fame and attention is, I believe, a mistake.

The 1950s were a busy time for the Royal Winnipeg Ballet. They performed for the Royal Visit in 1951, launched several tours across Canada and the United States, were filmed by the National Film Board - and then, of course, there was the fire. Behind it all was the ballet's founders and managers, Gweneth Lloyd and Betty Hay-Farraly.
In 1821 George IV was the first British monarch to visit Ireland in modern times. It was a historic occasion for multiple reasons. Not only was he the first king to set foot on Irish soil since the 17th century but he was the first to do so without an army.Many held out hope the king's arrival might usher in a new era in Irish history.However George himself had other ideas. Beginning as he meant to continue, George was dead drunk on arrival. The following weeks were defined by pomp, ceremony and scandal - everything we have come to expect from a modern royal visit.This show is based on research for my upcoming book that never made the final cut.The book, A Lethal Legacy - A History of Ireland in 18 Murders, will be released on 14 September.

The biggest names in Hollywood and Broadway recorded for AFRS during the war years, The American Forces Network can trace its origins back to May 26, 1942, when the War Department established the Armed Forces Radio Service (AFRS). The U.S. Army began broadcasting from London during World War II, using equipment and studio facilities borrowed from the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC). The first transmission to U.S. troops began at 5:45 p.m. on July 4, 1943, and included less than five hours of recorded shows, a BBC news and sports broadcast. That day, Corporal Syl Binkin became the first U.S. Military broadcasters heard over the air. The signal was sent from London via telephone lines to five regional transmitters to reach U.S. troops in the United Kingdom as they prepared for the inevitable invasion of Nazi-occupied Europe. Fearing competition for civilian audiences the BBC initially tried to impose restrictions on AFN broadcasts within Britain (transmissions were only allowed from American Bases outside London and were limited to 50 watts of transmission power) and a minimum quota of British produced programming had to be carried. Nevertheless, AFN programs were widely enjoyed by the British civilian listeners who could receive them, and once AFN operations transferred to continental Europe (shortly after D-Day) AFN were able to broadcast with little restriction with programs available to civilian audiences across most of Europe (including Britain) after dark. As D-Day approached, the network joined with the BBC and the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation to develop programs especially for the Allied Expeditionary Forces. Mobile stations, complete with personnel, broadcasting equipment, and a record library were deployed to broadcast music and news to troops in the field. The mobile stations reported on front line activities and fed the news reports back to studio locations in London.
