A Forensic Analysis of Meghan Markle’s A...

MAMAMIA PODCASTS
About this episode

After trademark troubles and delays with her original brand, our favourite ex-royal is giving it another go. Meghan Markle's new Instagram teaser still gives us those dreamy Montecito mansion vibes, but now with a different name and (presumably) fewer jams. Is this a strategic pivot or damage control? Either way, we're here for it.

Plus, Elon Musk brought his kids to the White House, and it's giving major "bring your kids to work day" energy... except when your dad is the world's richest man and he's accused by some as using you as a prop in his latest political statement. We unpack the ethics of it all.

And finally, forget everything you thought you knew about modern relationships because apparently open marriages are OUT and good old-fashioned affairs are IN. We dive into the essay that's got everyone clutching their pearls and asking: did we overthink this whole ethical non-monogamy thing?
