Summary

Maureen Callahan is joined by Royal insider Kinsey Schofield to break down Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s headline-making Australian tour, dissecting what they say are carefully orchestrated moments meant to position the pair as working Royals, including high-profile visits with children battling cancer, Meghan’s appearance at a women’s shelter, and her aggressive push to be an influencer. They also dive into escalating Royal family tensions, including how the Sussexes may attempt to hijack headlines ahead of King Charles' upcoming U.S. visit. Then Maureen reads Troublemaker feedback, reacting to backlash against Lena Dunham over her shamefully rehoming her dog, The Nerve getting referenced in the comments section of The New York Times, and fan artwork featuring Ryan Reynolds alongside The Nerve's investigative duo “Puss and Pooch.” Finally, Maureen celebrates The Nerve’s first birthday with Producer Marlaina, raising a glass to one year of sharp commentary, viral moments, and growing Troublemaker community.
