“I found this podcast failed to provide any reliable information because the Podcaster displays a clear bias in favour of the Sussexes. Not worth listening to.”

“The reviews only reflect each writer’s own personal triggers and biases - this podcast is more matter of fact than the reviews suggest. If you’re a “beach too sandy, water too wet” person: take your complaints elsewhere.”

“Every episode has false facts. The latest episode went on and on about the Queen and Philip’s picture with Archie at his christening. They didn’t even attend. They need an actual royal expert. I’m out!”

“I listen to about six podcasts to do with contemporary royalty, yes really! Each one has a different point of view. I like learning from them all including Scobie. He has his niche—keep it up.”

“Omid used to do reporting on the younger royals. He has since gone all in on the Sussex brand, acting as a PR shill for M & H. There’s no independence here. Such a shame. This man in his 30’s will now have no future in royal reporting, which is his only skill, as he will rightfully be denied...”Read full review »

“This podcast used to be a favourite however in the last year has made me wonder if Omid is on the Sussex’s payroll. Wouldn’t bother, check out the blog fromberkshiretobuckingham.com instead.”

“ABC can do better than this gossipfest. Pod Save The Queen and The Royal Rota are far more informed than this speculative drivel.
Omid presents himself as being a royal insider. He’s not. He presents himself as being a spokesman for the Sussexes. He’s not. Omid presents himself as being the...”Read full review »

“Hosted by someone who has lost their credibility as a royal commentator, he has a very biased view and the show overall forces you to like one side or another. It’s just sad”

They, the Royals create the best of England & the Commonwealth. The monies & incomes they’ve created for the...”Read full review »

“Will she be first guest on Meg’s podcast, then Oprah big interview and finally on his apple series? A goldmine of stories for her to glom onto and own.”

It would be far more interesting if it checked the facts and looked at the story from more than one side.”

“I enjoyed Omid when he and Emily had a podcast. As he’s become less a journalist and more a public relations spokesperson for the Sussexes, my trust in his objective reporting skills has waned. Heir Pod is a clever title but, like the host’s job description, misleading.”

“You say that Henry and Meghan did not want to burden Archie with a title and that Prince Charles agreed that when he became king he would allow Archie to make his own decision. Meghan in her interview inferred that a title for Archie wasn’t allowed due to racism. Which is it?”

Omission Scobie, author of “Finding Freedom” is, of course pro Sussex, but as a longtime Royal reporter does know his stuff. His American sidekick, however, gushes idiotically...”Read full review »

“I used to love this podcast & couldn’t wait to get Omid’s insights on all the royal news. Now it feels like just another propaganda arm of TV networks making sure to hit the main talking points. No one cares about the medical decisions the queen or any of the family makes! Super disappointing :/”
