What Just Happened? With Kevin O Sullivan | 20-Jun-23

While Harry went solo, Meghan went missing. Where was she when Harry cut a lonely figure at his father’s Coronation? Where was she when Harry endured a two day court ordeal in London as he launched his evidence-free legal action claiming that newspaper journalists used illegal methods to obtain stories about him? As one half of the highest profile couple on Earth, Ms Markle has been keeping a remarkably low profile. But all of sudden, the disappearing Duchess is back in the headlines as the world comes to terms with the daunting prospect of having to struggle by without her strangely named podcast Archetypes. Yes, bored bosses at streaming giant Spotify have decided that everyone has had quite enough of Meghan’s mission to – and I quote – “dissect, explore, and subvert the labels that try to hold women back.” Eh? After just one stupefying series, they’ve axed it. Worse still, the company has let it be known that it has no intention of handing Meghan the full $20million fee she and Harry were hoping for, because they were simply not productive enough. Spotify executive Bill Simmons dismissed Meg’s minimal output of twelve podcasts in two years as “lazy”. Kevin O Sullivan wraps up another mad, mad week in the world of news and current affairs. Expect bold opinions from TV s most outspoken host. This week Kevin is joined by JJ Anisiobi and Lacey Butcher.
