Meghan Markle releases explosive podcast
Meghan Markle has released her much-anticipated podcast, with the promise of sharing a new side of her life
In the first episode, the Duchess of Sussex sits down with tennis superstar Serena Williams, revealing she was criticised for her ambition when dating Prince Harry.
Meghan has expressed her desire to unpack “the boxes women have been placed in for generations”.
Meghan says the Archetypes podcast will focus on “harmful labels and stereotypes applied to women.”
During the first episode Meghan reflected on a time when her, Harry and baby Archie were travelling South Africa, for Royal duties.
A fire broke out in Archie’s room but they were instructed to carry on with their official duties.
Unbeknown to Harry and Meghan, Archie wasn’t in the room at the time, but Meghan says it was a traumatic moment in their lives.
“The focus ends up being on how it looks instead of how it feels… And part of the humanising and the breaking through of these labels and these archetypes and these boxes that we’re put into is having some understanding on the human moments behind the scenes that people might not have any awareness of and to give each other a break.”

Williams also spoke of emotional rollercoasters that she has faced in the sporting world and juggling her career while being a mum. She reflected on playing a match in 2018, after a sleepless night, because her daughter had broken her wrist.
“I somehow managed to win, but I was so emotionally spent and just like so emotionally drained that it was, it was crazy. And, you know, and then like every night after that, I just was with her the whole time and was like you’re going to be with me,”

Harry and Meghan have a contract to produce and host podcasts for Spotify. They will be produced by their company, Archewell Audio.
The first podcast episode follows a turbulent few years for the Sussexes and their relationship with the Royal Family.

Fed faces critical leadership transition as Trump nominates new chair amid economic uncertainty and potential rate cut discussions.
The U.S. Federal Reserve is entering a critical period as it prepares for President Donald Trump’s upcoming nominee to lead the central bank. Markets are closely watching how the Fed will navigate this leadership transition amid ongoing economic uncertainty.
The Fed’s two-day meeting could result in a modest quarter-percentage-point rate cut. However, future policy decisions will hinge on key economic projections and inflation trends, leaving analysts debating how much room the central bank really has to maneuver.
Trump is pushing for lower interest rates to boost the housing market before the midterms, but this could complicate the next Fed chair’s path. Data delays from the recent government shutdown may also affect the Fed’s decision-making this week, adding another layer of uncertainty.

Paramount’s $108.4B bid for Warner Bros reshapes media landscape, likely facing antitrust hurdles amid board’s Netflix preference.
Paramount’s $108.4B bid for Warner Bros reshapes media landscape, likely facing antitrust hurdles amid board’s Netflix preference.
Paramount has launched a staggering $108.4 billion hostile bid to acquire Warner Bros Discovery, shaking up the media landscape. The proposal, supported by Jared Kushner’s investment firm and Middle Eastern funds, offers $18 billion more in cash than Netflix’s recent $72 billion deal for the same assets.
Warner Bros’ board is currently reviewing the Paramount offer but continues to recommend the Netflix deal. Analysts warn that a merger of this scale could face intense antitrust scrutiny, potentially delaying or even blocking the deal.
Paramount argues that its acquisition would boost competition and provide stronger support for the creative community, promising a new chapter in Hollywood consolidation.
