| 0:00.0 | Hello, and welcome to another episode of Iway with Jermil. I am tired, very tired. I am tired |
| 0:09.2 | because I have had no sleep because all week I have spent my nights looking at my phone doing |
| 0:15.7 | the exact thing I am not supposed to do because I cannot stop reading the coverage over the |
| 0:20.8 | Megan and Harry interview. This has been going on for bloody weeks. As soon as it was announced |
| 0:25.2 | they were doing this interview, this press and palace onslaught has just been like nothing I've |
| 0:30.6 | ever seen before. No one even knew what was going to be said in the interview. And so considering |
| 0:36.4 | how tame and dignified that interview has turned out to be, it does make you wonder what must have |
| 0:43.1 | really happened for the presumptuous anticipatory response before it had even aired to be so strong, |
| 0:50.9 | all of these random claims of bullying. And listen, I have no idea what happened. I wasn't there. |
| 0:56.3 | I just think it's a bit weird that it happened years ago. And there's suddenly an investigation |

| 1:24.2 | The fact that there isn't an active investigation going on with a family member who's been accused of |
| 1:30.8 | of inappropriate sexual activity with minors to do with Jeffrey Epstein. So it's all been a bit |
| 1:38.1 | sus and pretty shocking and then amazing to watch this interview come out, which has been so |
| 1:44.0 | empowering. And for it to happen the week of International Women's Day, a man and a woman |
| 1:50.8 | coming out together to talk about the treatment that this woman has faced, a man standing by his |
| 1:57.1 | wife and a woman sticking up for herself, advocating for herself, advocating for kids who look |
| 2:02.0 | like her, advocating for representation, advocating for just being allowed to have your freedom |
| 2:07.0 | and have your say. I think she's so empowering. I think what she's done is so cool. It's such set |
