Introduction: Minutes 0 to 3:45
Chandra’s washer broke so she got a new washer/dryer. The AC in my
car is broken too. I want a newer car but I’m going to wait.
Supreme Court: Minutes 3:45 to 7:00
On Monday night, when the Met Gala had wrapped and we were headed
to bed, Politico leaked a draft majority opinion from Supreme Court
Justice Samuel Alito in the Hobbs case, stating that Roe v. Wade
and Planned Parenthood v. Casey must be overruled. The leak seems
to be a power move by conservatives. We kind of knew this was
coming, but it still sucks.
Met Gala: Minutes 7:00 to 17:00
So many attendees ignored the theme of Gilded Glamor completely.
Chandra thought the Louis Vuitton people had the best and the worst
looks. Chandra’s best dressed was Billie Eilish. We loved the Thom
Browne looks as they were on theme along with Laura Harrier in
H&M. Chandra thought Blake Lively looked very mall girl in her
Versace. I play a segment from Zoom where we talked about the Met
Gala. We liked Megan Thee Stallion and Cardi B’s dresses but think
that Megan didn’t need the high slit. Sarah Jessica Parker put a
lot of thought and research into her gown. Hillary Clinton had
historical women’s names embroidered into her gown.
Royals: Minutes 17:00 to 26:15
We’re getting a lot of follow up stories from Tina Brown’s book The
Palace Papers. Chandra has been excerpting from the chapters about
Meghan. They’re framed as being negative about Meghan but they
really show how bad palace staffers are at their jobs. We heard
that the palace staff couldn’t deal with Meghan’s level of
directness. It sounds like they were used to working light easy
schedules. Tina Brown also basically confirmed that Angela Kelly
was the one who leaked the negative tiara stories about Meghan.
She’s also trying to smear Meghan for not enjoying the Australian
tour, but it just sounds like Meghan wanted to do more work. We see
Meghan’s characteristics – her work ethic, her type A personality –
as strengths, but she’s being smeared for them.
It’s been confirmed by Prince Harry’s friend Nacho Figueras that Harry will be playing polo in a team with him called Los Padres. Their schedule goes into the weekend of the jubbly, which is June 2nd to the 5th. It seems like the Sussexes aren’t planning on going to the jubilee, but we don’t have confirmation about that. I play a segment from Zoom where we talked about this.
As Chandra has been covering, Tina Brown’s book is nasty about everyone. In interviews she’s anti-Sussex but is still saying Harry needs to come back to England.
Comments of the Week: Minutes 26:15 to end
Kaiser’s comment of the week is from Snuffles on the post about
Angela Kelly leaking the tiara story.
My comment of the week is from Angela H on Hecate’s story where an actual vampire who was giving advice to Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly on safely extracting blood from each other. Here’s a link to the Express shirt I bought, which I don’t really recommend.
Thanks for listening bitches!
