King Charles and Prince William step out together for a rare and historic joint appearance at Westminster Abbey, as William is officially installed as Great Master of the Order of the Bath. Meanwhile, royal insiders say Harry's chances of reconciliation remain slim, with “zero trust” at the palace and no coronation invite in sight. Plus: William makes a heartfelt statement on child bereavement as two major charities merge under his patronage, and Zara Tindall opens up about marriage, racehorses, and waking Mike with armed police. A revealing snapshot of the Windsors—honour, duty, and a bit of rugby-fueled chaos.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Send us fan responses! Prosperity is your divine birthright—but accessing it requires a fundamental shift from public school thinking to private financial knowledge. In this revealing episode, Don Kilam breaks down the critical distinction between "family trusts" and "dynasty trusts," exposing why the ultra-wealthy avoid the term "family" altogether.Did you know "family" etymologically means "servants of a household"? Meanwhile, a dynasty represents "a race or succession of sovereigns governing a country." This linguistic difference reveals why the Rothschilds, Windsors, and other powerful lineages structured their wealth through dynasty trusts rather than conventional family planning. These sophisticated financial instruments can preserve wealth for hundreds of years, bypass probate, minimize estate taxes, and protect assets from creditors and divorces across multiple generations.Don Kalam doesn't just explain concepts—he provides an insider's view of how dynasty trusts are structured through 13 specific articles that cover everything from beneficiary powers to trust governance. You'll learn why these trusts create tax advantages for education, business ventures, and other family expenses that ordinary financial planning simply can't match. This is the same knowledge used by royal families for centuries to maintain their influence despite political and economic upheavals.Ready to stop thinking like a servant and start building a sovereign financial legacy?

Welcome to our Royal Romance season.On this episode, we'll be talking about Royal Pairs that never got together. The couples in question were considered by the powers that be, or they took a fancy to each other, but they either weren't allowed to follow through with their plans, or fate decided otherwise. We're looking at four such couples today, Richard III & Isabella of Castile,George I & Queen Anne, Emperor Alexander II of Russia and Queen Victoria,And finally, Prince Eddy a.k.a. Prince Albert Victor, Duke of Clarence and Avondale & Empress Alexandra.It is always curious to ponder how different history would be if certain events had developed differently. To talk of these would-be couples, as well as touch upon the alternative history that we never got to know, we have historians Chris Riley and Catherine Curzon.Our Favourite Books by Catherine: The Crown: https://www.pen-and-sword.co.uk/The-Royal-Family-vs-The-Crown-Hardback/p/51893/aid/1238Georgian Queens: https://www.pen-and-sword.co.uk/Queens-of-Georgian-Britain-Hardback/p/14066/aid/1238Georgian Kings: https://www.pen-and-sword.co.uk/Kings-of-Georgian-Britain-Hardback/p/12904/aid/1238Wives of Prince Regent: https://www.pen-and-sword.co.uk/The-Wives-of-George-IV-Hardback/p/20127/aid/1238Life in the Georgian Court: https://www.pen-and-sword.co.uk/Life-in-the-Georgian-Court-Hardback/p/12109/aid/1238The Real Bridgerton: https://www.pen-and-sword.co.uk/The-Real-Bridgerton-Hardback/p/23199/aid/1238Our fangirling over Catherine's first book:https://www.ifitaintbaroquepodcast.art/post/life-in-the-georgian-court-the-long-18th-centuryWe are now on Patreon!Join our Baroque Kingdom and become a peer of the realm:https://patreon.com/Ifitaintbaroquepodcast?utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=join_link Join Natalie on her London walking tours:Monarchy Anglo-Saxons to Stuarts: https://www.getyourguide.com/london-l57/london-the-royal-british-kings-and-queens-walking-tour-t426011/Monarchy Stuarts to Windsors: https://www.getyourguide.com/london-l57/royal-london-georgian-and-windsor-monarchs-walking-tour-t481355Naughty London: https://www.getyourguide.com/london-l57/london-unsavory-history-guided-walking-tour-t428452/and a new one Royal Love Stories:https://www.getyourguide.com/london-l57/royal-love-stories-walking-tour-t481358/https://www.ifitaintbaroquepodcast.art/https://www.reignoflondon.com/ Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Prince Andrew, het zwarte schaap van de Windsors en de broer van de koning, heeft zich weer eens in de nesten gewerkt en is wederom negatief in het nieuws. Ditmaal niet vanwege zijn banden Jeffrey Epstein, de miljardair die zich aan kinderen vergreep, maar vanwege banden met een Chinese spion. De zaak kwam aan het licht door een rechtszaak: op aandringen van de Britse inlichtingendiensten werd de Chinese zakenman Yang Tengbo de toegang tot het Verenigd Koninkrijk ontzegd. De Chinees spande een zaak aan, maar de rechter oordeelde dat hij inderdaad om redenen van staatsveiligheid het land niet in mag. Yang Tengbo zou hebben gelogen over zijn banden met een vleugel van de Chinese Communistische Partij die zich bezig houdt met invloed verkrijgen in andere landen. Het nieuws is de zoveelste doorn in het oog van het Koningshuis, maar ook een politiek probleem. Na jaren van bekoelde verhoudingen tussen het VK en China - om spionage - wil Keir Starmer om economische redenen juist terug naar de warme banden zoals in de tijd van premier Cameron. Ook in deze aflevering Het uitgaansleven in Londen sterft af. Het aantal nachtclubs daalt met rasse schreden, en waar je wel nog kunt dansen en drinken worden de openingstijden steeds nauwer. Wat zit daarachter, en kun je überhaupt nog wel feesten in Londen? Over Van Bekhovens Britten In van Bekhovens Britten praten Lia van Bekhoven en Connor Clerx elke week over de grootste nieuwsonderwerpen en de belangrijkste ontwikkelingen in het Verenigd Koninkrijk. Van Brexit naar binnenlandse politiek, van de Royals tot de tabloids. Waarom fascineert het VK Nederlanders meer dan zo veel andere Europese landen? Welke rol speelt het vooralsnog Verenigd Koninkrijk in Europa, nu het woord Brexit uit het Britse leven lijkt verbannen, maar de gevolgen van de beslissing om uit de EU te stappen iedere dag duidelijker worden? De Britse monarchie, en daarmee de staat, staat voor grote veranderingen na de dood van Queen Elisabeth en de kroning van haar zoon Charles. De populariteit van het Koningshuis staat op een dieptepunt. Hoe verandert de Britse monarchie onder koning Charles, en welke gevolgen heeft dat voor de Gemenebest? In Van Bekhovens Britten analyseren Lia en Connor een Koninkrijk met tanende welvaart, invloed en macht. De Conservatieve Partij leverde veertien jaar op rij de premier, maar nu heeft Labour onder Keir Starmer de teugels in handen. Hoe ziet het VK er onder Keir Starmer uit? En hoe gaan de ‘gewone’ Britten, voor zover die bestaan, daar mee om? Al deze vragen en meer komen aan bod in Van Bekhovens Britten. Een kritische blik op het Verenigd Koninkrijk, waar het een race tussen Noord-Ierland en Schotland lijkt te worden wie zich het eerst af kan scheiden van het VK. Hoe lang blijft het Koninkrijk verenigd? Na ruim 45 jaar onder de Britten heeft Lia van Bekhoven een unieke kijk op het Verenigd Koninkrijk. Als inwoner, maar zeker geen anglofiel, heeft ze een scherpe blik op het nieuws, de politiek, de monarchie en het dagelijkse leven aan de overkant van de Noordzee. Elke woensdag krijg je een nieuwe podcast over het leven van Van Bekhovens Britten in je podcastapp. Scherpe analyses, diepgang waar op de radio geen tijd voor is en een flinke portie humor. Abonneer en mis geen aflevering. Over Lia Lia van Bekhoven is correspondent Verenigd Koninkrijk voor onder andere BNR Nieuwsradio, VRT, Knack en Elsevier en is regelmatig in talkshows te zien als duider van het nieuws uit het VK. Ze woont sinds 1976 in Londen, en is naast correspondent voor radio, televisie en geschreven media ook auteur van de boeken Mama gaat uit dansen, het erfgoed van Diana, prinses van Wales (1997), Land van de gespleten God, Noord-Ierland en de troubles (2000), In Londen, 9 wandelingen door de Britse hoofdstad (2009) en Klein-Brittannië (2022).

**Discussion begins at 4:15**We are drinking some high tea and going back to England to talk about Queen Elizabeth I... not to be confused with the queen that just passed away. RIP. We're talking about Queen Elizabeth today because... guys... she could have been a man. Queen Elizabeth I is the last of the Tudor monarchy in old England. She was the daughter of the infamous King Henry VIII, and lived from 1533-1603, when she died at age 69. She was known for being the Virgin Queen because she never took a husband, and pledged herself to the service of England. During her reign she restored England to the Protestant Church, she executed the Queen of the Scots, Mary Stuart, and led the country to defeat the Spanish Armada. But was Queen Elizabeth really the virgin queen? Was it her who actually reigned for 54 years, or was it an impostor put forth to continue the Tudor dynasty?Send us a textSupport the showTheme song by INDA
It has been a wretched year for Princess Catherine.There was Katespiracy, the botched Mother's Day photograph, months of vicious and unfounded rumours about her marriage.Most seriously of all, she was diagnosed with cancer.But this week, to our great relief, she announced that she's beaten it.Of course, these days we're not allowed to have nice things.Social media critics and some commentators called it “contrived,” a “cringe fest” and - in perhaps the most damning critique of all - “like something Harry and Meghan would do.”As you might imagine, I disagree.In a late entry for the most tasteless and despicable deed of the summer, Harry and Meghan released an advertisement for their new documentary - about polo - just 90 minutes after Kate's announcement.Joining to debate Royal historian, Tessa Dunlop Lawyer and commentator, Paula Rhone-Adrien And Author of Revenge: Meghan, Harry, and the War Between the Windsors, Tom Bower.

Introduction: Minutes 0 to 4:15 I watched Thunder Force on Netflix and loved it. Chandra had to subscribe to ESPN+ due to DirectTV's feud with Disney. She is watching In the Arena with Serena Williams. Royals: Minute 4:15 to 21:00 The last time we recorded the Sussexes had arrived in Colombia. They pulled off that trip like professionals and the optics were amazing. Colombia's Vice President Francia Marquez said that Harry and Meghan's visit really highlighted tourism. We heard that it only cost Colombia less than $60,000 to provide security for them. The Sussexes did a great job making photos available to agencies. Emily Andrews let it slip that Buckingham Palace had talking points about this trip. King Charles went to Southport last week to visit the families of children who were murdered in a knife attack. Charles has been staying in Scotland at his smaller home, Birkhall, while other members of the family stay at Balmoral. Kate was seen headed to church there on August 25th. There was a story in GB News that Zara and Mike Tindall were being asked to relieve Prince William and Princess Kate. There's an undercurrent that William and Kate are incapable of doing their jobs. Prince Harry made a secret visit to the UK last week to go to his uncle Robert Fellowes' funeral. Harry stayed at Althorp with the Earl Spencer. You could tell that the Windsors were super mad they didn't know about Harry's visit ahead of time. The Windsors are mad at how much the Spencers support Harry. There's been a narrative in the British press that Harry wants to come back to the UK to do royal work. It's clearly coming from William's side. This narrative has been pushed by William for years. Chandra thinks this storyline is an attempt to distract from what's going on with Kate. Toward the end of this month Prince Harry is going to be in New York solo for UN climate week. He's going to speak at the Clinton Global Initiative. Prince William will not be going to NY on behalf of Earthshot despite pathetically trying to copykeen Harry's trip last year. We wonder why William and Kate didn't do any events during the Sussexes' trip. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie: Minutes 21:00 to 31:30 This week both Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt premiered their movies at the Venice Film Festival. Angelina is starring as opera star Maria Callas in the biopic Maria. She is getting Oscar buzz for that and it's coming out on Netflix. Braad is starring with George Clooney in the Apple streaming movie Wolfs. It was supposed to come out in theaters but that's not happening. Brad Pitt made his red carpet debut with Ines de Ramon. Brad and Angelina are covering People Magazine this week with the title “Brad and Angelina, their 8 year divorce, Can they Finally Move On,” as if Brad's legal battle against Angelina is mutual. The whole narrative comes from Brad and it's the same garbage we've seen from him for years as he uses legal means to continue to try and punish Angelina for leaving him after he abused her and their children. Brad Pitt looks pulled and puffy recently. There's been a shift in public perception about Brad Pitt, especially since Shiloh changed her last name. Comments of the week: Minutes 31:30 to end Chandra's comment of the week is from It Really Is You, Not Me on the post about Justin Theroux's engagement. My comments of the week are from HeatherC and Indica on Rosie's post about Oasis potentially adding US dates to their tour. Thanks for listening bitches!

This spring, Catherine, Princess of Wales, ended a long silence and rampant public speculation with a solemn video announcing her cancer diagnosis. In the final episode of DYNASTY: The Windsors' Most Difficult Year, hosts Claire Howorth, Katie Nicholl, and Erin Vanderhoof explain why the message that accompanied her diagnosis was the most important speech of her royal career, and what it says about the Catherine we will see in the future. After a year of struggle, is the monarchy emerging into a new, calmer era? And what lessons will the Windsors take away from their brushes with ill-health and public speculation?
When King Charles III announced his cancer diagnosis in February, there was an outpouring of emotion in the UK, along with some concern about what it would look like if the monarch not wasn't able to greet his public on a daily basis. From the beginning, the king balanced his treatments with his duties, and privately he told his medical team that attending Trooping the Colour, the parade that marks his birthday, was nonnegotiable. By the time the June celebration rolled around, the king was out on the Buckingham Palace balcony with Queen Camilla at his side, and the clouds over the Windsors' future seemed to part. On this week's episode of DYNASTY: The Royal Family's Most Challenging Year, hosts Claire Howorth, Katie Nicholl, and Erin Vanderhoof return to the unprecedented events of the year, and Charles' embrace of radical (for royals, anyway) transparency.
Buckingham Palace's East Wing has opened up to visitors for the first time in 2024. St James's Palace did so at the tail end of 2023. Even Balmoral — a royal residence privately owned by the Windsors, rather than part of the holdings of the Crown — has opened up its doors, something which would have been unimaginable during the lifetime of the late Queen Elizabeth II. Why has it happened, and what can it tell us about the Monarcy today? Country Life's Architectural Editor John Goodall joins host James Fisher in this episode of the Country Life Podcast to talk about this, and much more.Listen to Country Life podcast on Apple PodcastsListen to Country Life podcast on SpotifyListen to Country Life podcast on AudibleSome of the topics are very much in John's ballpark: how to get your house featured in the pages of Country Life, and what you can expect once it happens, for example. But, never a man afraid to stray out of his lane, John also delves into the wonderful world of Taylor Swift concerts, how to build 1.5 million homes, and why sequin-covered books on architecture might one day be best-sellers. He even squeezes in a bit about how Oxford University ought to do a better job of keeping track of their own buildings.

We speak to the historian Gareth Russell about his book The Palace, which covers the history of Hampton Court Palace, from the Tudors to the Windsors. It's a fascinating book (and podcast!) covering lots of fascinating characters - from Henry VIII and George III to chocolatiers and the Romanovs. For more on Gareth, you can find him on Twitter (https://x.com/garethrussell1) and Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/_garethrussell) Learn more about your ad choices.

First published in 1980, Between Dog and Wolf by Sasha Sokolov is one of the most acclaimed Russian novels of the twentieth century. But the book, with its dazzling wordplay, shifting-sand narration, and other literary pyrotechnics, has been tough for English-speaking audiences to appreciate. In this episode, Jacke talks to Jose Vergara about his new project, The Encyclopedia of the Dog, an online bilingual digital version of Sokolov's novel, which seeks to make a literary masterwork accessible to new audiences. Then Jacke talks to Gareth Russell (The Palace: From the Tudors to the Windsors, 500 Years of British History at Hampton Court) about his choice for the last book he will ever read.

Introduction: Minutes 0 to 8:00 I saw an alligator with her babies when I was in Florida. Chandra's cat captured a chipmunk who looked dead but then escaped. I watched Fallout on Amazon Prime, Files of the Unexplained on Netflix and a mystery horror show on MGM+ called From. Chandra watched The Idea of You and Dune 2. Royals: Minutes 8:00 to 26:00 We still haven't seen Kate. William was asked about Kate and their kids earlier this month and he said “we're all doing well.” A fashion designer who dresses the children said in an interview “I think they are going through hell, I hope they will be back.” When The Times reported on Prince Charles' visit to a cancer center on April 30th they included the detail that Kate “is expected to be away from public duties for some time.” There's no timeline for when she might return. William is on the cover of this week's People Magazine. He's the focus and center of the story, with very little details about how Kate and the kids are doing. There's a narrative that any questions about Kate's condition are “bullying” and mean to her, when it's more about the messaging around her illness. Anyone who points out the fake photos and videos the palace has been putting out are somehow hurting Kate according to their narrative. We wonder when the international press will start to call them out. Harry went to the 10th year anniversary service for Invictus at St. Paul's Cathedral in London on Wednesday and got a rock star reception. Harry's relatives on his mother's Spencer side were out in full force, but none of the Windsors came. They held a garden party at the same time because they're just that petty. We heard that Harry requested ahead of time to see his father but was told Charles was too busy. Harry's spokesperson issued a simple statement about that. Richard Kay reported that “there had been no formal request from either the King or his son to schedule a meeting.” Royal commentator Charlotte Griffiths suggested the meeting fell through because Harry didn't want Camilla in the room when he met Charles. Kay also reported that Harry didn't request housing. Camilla has been leaking like crazy. They also announced a military honors event in which Charles will officially hand off Colonel-in-Chief of the Army Air Corps to William. They made the announcement about William getting that title last year, but this is a made up handover event to try to pull focus from Harry. The Army Air Corps is Harry's regiment with which he served two tours in Afghanistan. The Sussexes have been invited by the Nigerian government to visit. As we were recording, the news had just come out that they would arrive the next day, Friday. The British envoy in Nigeria has admitted he had no idea about the visit and is not involved in scheduling. Drake and Kendrick Lamar beef: Minutes 26:00 to 37:00 Drake had been trying to bait Kendrick for months before he finally responded with some of the most epic songs in rap battle history. We talk about the BBL Drizzy phenomenon, starting with the King Willonius song and evolving into Metro Boomin's BBL Drizzy challenge. After Drake's cheap shot at Kendrick, Family Matters, Kendrick dropped Meet The Grahams and then Not Like Us, which is breaking records. After that Drake released The Heart Part 6 in which he tells on himself and reveals that he doesn't understand Kendrick's lyrics. There was a shooting at Drake's house recently and one of his bodyguards was injured. Drake has feuds with so many people in his industry. Meghan Thee Stallion's HISS is likely about Drake. Comments of the Week: Minutes 37:00 to end Chandra's comment of the week is from PaddingtonJr on the post about Harry at the Invictus anniversary service. My comments of the week are from MrsFonzieFace, K and Eowyn on the post about Robert F Kennedy Jr. having a dead worm in his brain. Thanks for listening bitches!
We humans imprint ourselves on our surroundings - and they, in turn, have the power to affect us. In this episode, Jacke talks to Gareth Russell (The Palace: From the Tudors to the Windsors, 500 Years of History at Hampton Court) about the building that Thomas Hardy famously called a "Spellbound Palace" in one of his finest poems. We'll hear about the building's history and why it holds a special place in literary history, including the planning of the King James Bible and as a site for early Shakespeare performances. PLUS Jess Cotton (John Ashbery: A Critical Life) selects her choice for the last book she will ever read. Help support the show at patreon.com/literature or historyofliterature.com/donate.

In this special episode, I speak with author Gareth Russell. His new book, The Palace: From the Tudors to the Windsors, 500 Years of British History at Hampton Court, gives us a look at the storied history of what is called the most beautiful palace in England. But, behind the walls of Hampton Court, true tales of intrigue, sex scandals, assassination plots, and murder played out among the royals and court members. Links: https://www.simonandschuster.com/authors/Gareth-Russell/500660891 https://www.amazon.com/Palace-Windsors-British-History-Hampton/dp/1797169165 https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-palace-mr-gareth-russell/1143030248
Charles invites Gareth Russell to tell him all about his latest book, The Palace: From the Tudors to the Windsors, 500 Years of British History at Hampton Court. Among the topics they discuss are the wives of Henry VIII, the use of séances to get one's own way, the first performances of Macbeth and Hamlet, the writing of the King James Bible, snobbery within eighteenth century chocolate production, whether Mary I was as bad as her reputation suggests, and why George III moved the monarchy to Buckingham Palace.The dial-up tone in the introduction was recorded by lintphishx and is used under a CC 3.0 License.
As many will already know, it was the youngest child of Prince Louis of Battenberg and Princess Victoria of Hesse and by Rhine who would become a prominent figure in the lives of the modern world of the Windsors. Young Louis Battenberg, later Louis Mountbatten, was known as Dickie to his confidants, and was stung early when his father, First Sea Lord of the British Navy, was removed from his post at the outbreak of WWI because of his German origins. The episode would motivate his son to excel in a Naval career to reclaim the title, and the then-Mountbattens' familial closeness with the House of Windsor would give him an avenue to real political power and influence. Edwina Ashley, future wife of Louis Mountbatten, was born into a family of means, but not of emotional connection. While her grandfather, Sir Ernest Cassel, was kind and involved, her parents left her sister and Edwina to mostly be raised by governesses. After her mother's death, Edwina's father married for a second time to a woman Louis would later describe as "a wicked woman." Edwina was ultimately able to find refuge in her grandfather's home, where as a teenager she became a sophisticated society hostess and a friend to many in the monied elite. Sir Ernest Cassel's death, when Edwina was about 20, made her one of the richest women in England.
