The British press may have found its next royal scapegoats, and this week we're asking why. Royal biographer Andrew Lownie joins us to discuss the futures of Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie…and what scrutiny of “minor royals” reveals about the institution. He’s the author of ENTITLED: The Rise and Fall of the House of York, with the paperback forthcoming this May.

Plus, our take on coverage from Commonwealth Day 2026: who wore what, who showed up, and who was outside making sure the ceremony didn't go uncontested.
