  • Part 2 - Netflix's Harry and Meghan Docu Series Overview
    Dec 21 2022

    Part 2 of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's Netflix docuseries has dropped and we got thoughts! It looks like the former Royals have spilled the tea and dived into some of the internal drama leading up to their decision to leave the institution. That + the fallout between Harry and his brother William has our tongues wagging this week! Did the last three episodes do its job in helping repair their image and tell their side of the story or was it yet another PR ploy wrapped up in poor execution?


    Join us this week as we debate (or rather argue about) the details and try to make it to the other side with our friendship in tact!

  • Part 1 - Netflix's Harry and Meghan Docu Series Overview: A Sneak Peak Into Their Lives or a PR Failure in Authenticity?
    Dec 14 2022

    Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are at it again with the new release of their Netflix docuseries! The first three episodes walks us through how Harry and Meghan met, how they kept their relationship under the radar, Harry’s experience growing up, Meghan’s experience growing up, the official launch of their relationship, and what happened with the British media + the initial story on Meghan’s family drama. Though some called it boring and others (mainly Royal family lovers) ripped Harry and Meghan to shreds, Netflix has said it's been their best performing documentary launch within the first week of its launch. Did the first three episodes do its job in helping repair their image and tell their side of the story or was it a PR stunt wrapped up in poor execution?
