| 0:00.0 | I'm John Batchel with my colleague Elizabeth Peek, who writes for column for the |
| 0:20.4 | Hill, column for Fox News, |
| 0:21.7 | much on Fox Business, and I enjoy reflecting over the course of my life how King Charles III |
| 0:28.7 | and John Batchel were born within months of each other. So as he went through his education, |
| 0:34.5 | I went through mine. And then he took a sharp turn into the world of Polo. I couldn't follow him there. So I lost track for a number of years. He had a rough marriage and tragedy around him all the time. But he is royal. And the palace in Britain is not just ceremonial. |
