“Do you have any interest in covering any other people, other than Harry and Meghan? The nastiness is something new and you bring nothing new to the table.”

“The raspy voice… the biting humor… the self-deprecation. Love it all. I want all of my pop culture tidbits delivered by this man.”

“I think this program is fun and really not mean to the Harkels at all. My family would never trust or associate with anyone that wrote a tell all book about us. I do not feel sorry for them, they did this to themselves.”

“Boring podcast, with too short of episodes. Delivery of topics comes off more of a junky tabloid than a discussion of current events, or speculations.”

“I love the twisted point of view reporting given in this podcast. Most other Royal podcasts give me all the gilded and glittering stuff which I appreciate. PALACE INTRIGUE gives me the slightly dusty and slightly tarnished goblet version which I also appreciate. Always good for a chuckle. Keeps...”Read full review »

“I listened to this royal gossip podcast for several months, but I am unfollowing now. There are so many ads crammed into the short daily show. I know there isn’t much new royal news daily or weekly, but now it’s just repetitive and speculation. And no, I’m not paying for a subscription.”

“Palace Intigue is the first podcast I listen to every morning and I enjoy it a fun bit of entertainment. I’m not that much of a monarchist that I follow everything going on with them, only generally interested, so this is a nice summary of what’s in the news. It’s a surprise to me when listeners...”Read full review »

“Mark Francis becomes more and more unlikable every show. He seems like a sad person, putting others down to make himself feel better. He comes off as pretentious, rude and judgy. “Give us 5 stars!” Why? You spread hate. “Pay for a subscription!” Heck no. I’ll save my money for jam or dog...”Read full review »

“Aside from all the Meagan-bashing, this podcast has the potential to be pretty good. Unfortunately, on almost every show, the narrator leaves the best bits unsaid. He’ll allude to some juicy bit of gossip….then, just leaves it hanging. What’s up with that? If there’s something to report, just say...”Read full review »

“I have noticed you’re being a bit nicer about them but you still have work to do. I like them and I like the fact they struck out on their own rather than be lemmings. You could lean into that instead of being so bitter about them.”

“Your hatred of MM is palpable. Jealous? Don’t you have enough to do to keep the sham royal family in luxury at the expense of the real people of England? How much are the ”royals” paying you to trash Harry & MM? This must be AI.”

“This podcast isn’t trying to make a meal out of an appetizer and I am here for it. Some royal-watching podcasts who shall remain un-named have about two minutes of actual news but take 30 minutes to report. It’s boring! I love this presenter’s style-nice demeanor, soft voice and charming accent,...”Read full review »

“I love hearing about the royal family. I don’t, however, love them. This is the perfect pod for me: 5-minute episodes that send up both royals, their fans and the media, simply by quoting them.”

“The host has slowed his previously *stupidly* fast delivery and softened his tone since I first started listening about 18 months ago. But he is still pretty dead even in his reading, and somehow the effect is increasingly hilarious as well as increasingly clear delivery of tidbits of royal news.”

“I am American and thoroughly embarrassed by Markel. Her hypocrisy -and that of Harry - is sickening. Angry at the Firm? Don’t want to be a “working royal”? Then have some integrity, give up all the titles, website, etc and BE your own people. Glad that the Host is sharp and on point about all of...”Read full review »
