Bonus 12 | PDTA CRACK: A British Person's Perspective on "Young Royals"

(SPOILER WARNING: This bonus episode contains explicit and implicit spoilers for all three seasons of Young Royals.) TW: References to child p*rnography, homophobia, transphobia, general queerphobia, misogyny, political violence, insurrection, hate crimes, and heteronormativity The pod is getting a bit ~experimental~ as your hosts are joined by (shock and horror) a third person!! One of Anton's best friends and former roommate, Alec (he/him) from the UK, comes on to give his take on Young Royals as a whole. While managing the flow of a three-way conversation and attempting to fit in as much as they all can within a normal-ish length for an episode of the podcast, Margaret reveals a storyline in Season 3 they personally could have done without; Anton articulates why the themes of royalty, at least in stories, are inherently queer; and Alec wonders how the events of the show would have played out if Queen Kristina II of Sweden was instead Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom.
