Danielle D'Souza Gill Joins Dinesh to Discuss the Royals
"You were talking a moment ago about the fact that the royal family is sort of stayed out of politics, and it seemed that the queen, the late queen, was, you know, also stoical in her personality, tended to hold her emotions and check in that sense, reflected the personality of an earlier era. Would you agree that it was starting with lady Diana that we began to see a kind of a new sensibility within the royal family, which is the idea of being a royal as a form of self expression. I say this because it seems to me some of what's going on with Harry and with Meghan Markle is an extension of what happened with lady Diana. Do you agree or do you think that they're actually very different? I would say they're different. Some people say Megan is like Diana. Megan herself has keeps trying to imitate Diana. She will wear the same outfits as her. She claims she never knew who the royals were. She never followed any of this. Other people who knew her have claimed differently. But it's pretty clear that she has tried to put herself in that line because Harry has this kind of obsession with his mother's death. So I think that was something that Meghan did strategically to make herself seem like a new Diana. However, Diana was really the people's princess and she was loved by many people. She was even though she had a lot of problems that was more of her at least brand whereas Meghan is more of someone who most people dislike, even before this book came out. She really wasn't very popular. She was popular around the time of her wedding, which is when kind of the royals and we're still getting along with her at least as far as the world's thought they were getting along. And most people were really excited about this new person joining their royal family. People thought it was cool. She was of another race and so on. And so I think only really after that after Meghan joined the royal family, did her popularity go down as soon as she kind of started acting in ways that were diva esque, like things were released about from her staff about her kind of being abusive towards them. Other people and then I think the pattern just continued of her. Sort of acting in that entitled way,

An Identity Crisis of Royal Proportions
"Think the problem for the royals is that they, they don't know whether to be ancient or moderns. Now Queen Elizabeth clearly in that sense was an ancient by which I mean almost a creature from the 19th century. And then on the other hand, you have the moderns, the now the age of the moderns with the royalty began with lady die. And lady Diana was the quintessential modern. Emoting in public and these are my feelings and, you know, I'm here as a princess and I'm here. She was kind of on a personal journey. Now, if you think about what it means to be a king or a prince and royalty, it's not about being on a personal journey. So contrast the queen for whom the queen always spoke in the language of duty. I see this as a task. This is a kind of assignment that I've been given you may say by history and I'm discharging it with a sense of acceptance and perhaps even of obligation. I think the problem for the royalty is that both the old virtues and the kind of new style are today you have to ask why because to some degree I suppose Charles is a little bit more like his mom than he is like Diana. But on the other hand, Charles is almost a parody of his mom. He has an extremely weird life, he's got this weird consort, Camilla Parker Bowles. He messed up his whole marriage. I think Charles ultimately was responsible for that. So he's not exactly an admirable exemplar of the old world. And then you've got these bratty offspring of whom I think particularly who's the younger guy, honey, is it Harry? Harry and Meghan Markle, this is sort of the grotesque progeny. And so you have to ask, if you've got people who would rather be, have I'd rather have a Netflix deal than live in Balmoral Castle.

"Flash blinded. Henri paul caused the crash. This is maybe the dumbest one to me. We talked about this one last week. This is one of the ones that That alleged clone victim. Donny marshall his crazy ass pointed to with some alumina assassination claims and i went over last week. How focused tubas assignations tempest. I mean i don't think shining a bright light into professional drivers is is just gonna make them panic and just like you know veer off. Course that says that's like poorly written action movie and also other people have seen this light and no one reported that they're like. Oh my god. This craziest light is coming to the tunnel. Lining people diners medicare is sabotaged. Emt's paid off by the crown is the next theory. The shady doctors allow diana to die by not treating her properly. This conspiracy started to catch because french. Ems and british. Ms operate differently. The french focused on treating at the scene while the british wants to get people to the hospital as possible. The investigators who wrote the report for operation paget argued that it conspiracy like this would require a substantial number of doctors and caregivers to break throats and being on it so most likely that it's possible that if she was taken sooner to the hospital she might have survived. Bud doctors who were actually there. Those who have studied for autopsy reports say Doubtful probably not and then their theory. Nine dodie dinette. Were never going out to dinner that night. Diana had stolen queen elizabeth's click clip diamond. And she and dodie when the process of selling. Did the kgb the kgb wanted to because the fifteen carat diamond was actually a key used to open a mystical portal to lead to queen elizabeth's underground luminosity. Cloning center do when we talked about last week. The woman she stabbed donny marshall or maybe clone to write a new hip hop song. I may i. May i just. I just wanted to try and sneak the clip a nonsense. Their one more time. I think i'm done. I'm done. I think many of these theories have no evidence of course to back them up but still a lot of people believe that i knew secrets about the royal family and they plotted to kill her because she was going to tell where they just couldn't stand that she was going to be married to someone who was white. I don't know how do we heard stuff like this. Especially no too much angle. They knew too much so they had to be killed. I just think if that was true. Wouldn't have been killed earlier by more effectively poisoned under sleep. Maybe i dunno made it made it. It look like a heart attack or something. Why wait for dating someone else than just let them date for a while and give the her time to share secrets with him and he could have shared with others. Because they're so worried about secrets wouldn't they want to tillerson as possible. It just makes no sense. The royal family of course is having anything to do with her death. Other theories claimed that the cia and fifteen m16. The governments of other countries all wanted her dead for her work with removing landmines. But if that's true. That really backfired. H that famous walk through an angolan minefield. In january of ninety seven. She dies in august and then a few months later. The united nations bands bands landmines and since the band one hundred and sixty four nations have signed so there were killing there because they didn't want her to raise land mine awareness. The point land mines. We band at really fucking backfired and quickly. Numerous theories clinton charles wanted to marry camilla and needed her dead but now he didn't i mean it..

Al fayed dodi's father were the main spreaders of the theory that the royal family helped plan this car. Crash and response to metropolitan. Police launched operation. Paget two years cost millions of pounds only if the police to agree with the initial reports their investigation examined one hundred seventy five different theories determined. None of them were true here. The nine main reasons and or clues conspiracy theories point to regarding her motives.

I'm crazy. dana schubert crazy to The third Theory here the paparazzi intensity caused a car crash to cash in on the carnage right. According to this theory the paparazzi chased pushed the car causing it to crash into the pillar so they could get the death photos and then make millions. an investigation.

If you're longtime sucker and current on your conspiracy lore. She basically immediately became much more popular than her husband. Who seems stiff and aloof. The popularity discrepancy would quickly cause problems. Marriage actually charles. Well aware that the people preferred his wife to him and that was not the power dynamic hope for overall though the royal family Loved the attention initially shedding diana. They saw her as the perfect princess. Initially the royal family you know viewed her as a wonderful public image asset and public image. So important today. Huge for the royals and monetize fucking everything for them. The prince charming stuff All those disney movies and more great for royal business keeping a high risk profile is what keeps the british monarchy afloat the position. They now hold in british culture. It's so interesting to me. They've had any real political power. Roughly two centuries and their bauer has been waning actually for centuries before that ninety nine point nine percent symbolic now the king or queen is still technically the head of the state or head of state in the uk but in name only. The prime minister runs the government. An elected official. The prime ministers voted member of the house of comments. Now's comments where legislation actually gets Legislative the monarch privately advises the prime minister to some degree. But the prime minister doesn't actually have to listen to them. It's doesn't have to take their advice. Legislation passed by a body of voted in representatives not by a monarch Not by other nobility. one of the crown's most important responsibilities now is to be the official patron of over six hundred charity and that is very cool but even this role is just about drawing attention to these charities not actually deciding how to run them how to fund them what state money or even donate to them just to show up and you know Bring some attention to them show but at a gallery opening will make a statement. Most of the royal family's income today is totally dependent essentially on tourism tourism driven by the image of being royal. They're distant echo of what they used to be. A variety of properties collectively referred to as the crown estate such as buckingham palace charge tourist to enter and explore them. They sell stuff and their gift shops..

"We're like we're a little princess dresses course. She did a couple years. My daughter monroe wanted to be a princess's well. She dressed up like a like a prince wants to go to disneyland. I'll never forget because you do a giant fucking tantrum. Today's of disneyland. Because i wouldn't let her walk in had to take her in the stroller but she's pretty hilarious to watch a furious print. Very angry princess But yeah prince has to be the most common fantasy for little girls at least in the western world by far. I've dated women who've actually told me they want to be treated like a princess. I feel like it's a very common quote in a in a much more. Common sentiment leased. It was twenty years ago Princess aspirations strongly embedded in our culture essentially the angle of being a commoner. Your average jane and then a prince charming comes along. It's stoops you up and makes you know everything. Perfect you know picks you of all the women in the world and takes care of your every need forever and ever happily ever after that narrative. Even though diana wasn't really a commoner got attached to her story to her life partially. I think because so many actual commenters just wanted to see themselves in her story. And i'm not a big fan of this fairy tale I didn't push thoughts on all of this to monroe and ruined her princess phase when she was younger but i would talk to her about it now. She's thirteen if she hadn't already let go of it. I think it's fairy tale encourages women to be weak into long to be taken care of by a man and his men to look for weak ass women to be taken care of a true lose-lose levin also not a big fan mind being taking doesn't mind being taken care of by or be treated like a princess. That's part's fine. But you know doesn't need. It wants it to be known as a need that she can take care of herself if she should show if she should choose but anyway the prince charming story probably the most common little girl fantasy maybe just female centric fantasy and journal in the world tons of popular princess fairy tales. Also come for the middle east. Asia africa I couldn't find any you know quickly. Unlike south america but i i wouldn't be surprised if there was some equivalent the western world in modern times princess fantasies tended to have a british look to them because the british were running more of the world than anyone else. Nineteen twenty. The british empire covered twenty four percent of the total land area either directly or through commonwealth influence. Then there were all the other countries like the us whose culture directly tied to england and its monarchy they exported their culture in recent history more successfully than any other nation by far that at least that has a monarchy. And because of this you know. British royal marriages and weddings princes and princesses extremely appealing to the international public for centuries back in march of eighteen sixty three newspapers around the world printed front-page stories about the wedding celebrations of king. Edward the seventh of england and princess alexandra of denmark huge crowds lined the streets hoping to get a glimpse of the real life princess nineteen twenty-three wedding of queen elizabeth the queen mother the current queen elizabeth.

Visit the daily article dot com. Now here's today's news discerned differently. My wife and i were two of the estimated seven hundred fifty million people who watched prince charles mary lady diana spencer forty years ago yesterday. Here's what we didn't know. Diana accidentally spilled some perfume on her wedding dress prior to the ceremony. Her makeup artist then told her to hold the spot in her dress as she was walking to make it seem that she was lifting the front of her dress so she wouldn't step on it. Diana also had to wedding bouquets. This was because queen. Elizabeth lost the flowers during her own wedding so she started. The tradition of having two identical bouquets created to prevent a similar mishap. Here's something else we know. The queen mother gave part of the wedding cake to one of her employees. There was plenty to spare. The three tiered cake stood five feet tall and weighed two hundred. Twenty five pounds. The twenty eight ounce slice of cake is now going up for auction on august eleventh and is expected to bring nearly seven hundred dollars. We seldom know all there is to know about anything we see in the news. For example many of are watching the unfolding protests and responses in cuba cuban-americans gathered on the front lawn of the capitol this week to support those in the island in their fight for freedom from communism. Mass trials of those who marched in protest are already underway with reports that nearly seven hundred have been detained swift. Convictions are already being handed down. We commonly here in western. Press that the cuban healthcare system is a success worthy of emulation. In fact huffington post called it. A model for the world. Cuba sends tens of thousands of doctors to serve. In more than sixty countries senator bernie. Sanders has defended cuban dictator fidel castro because he educated their kids gave their kids healthcare totally transformed the society however after ten trips to the island over the years. I can attest personally that what we hear in western press is not the reality i have experienced. There is essentially three tiers system in cuba. The best healthcare is given to foreigners. This is what american politicians and press usually see while the second tier is restricted to the cuban elite politicians and others. The third tier is available to everyone else and is abysmal. We often brought aspirin and other essentials with us into cuba because the people have no access to them a deer. Pastor friend of mine faced surgery in a cuban hospital under conditions so dire dangerous as to be life threatening. His wife died of cancer. That would have been successfully treated in the. Us as zack taper notes in the daily signal. Patience must bring their own bedsheets soap towels food and even light bulbs to receive medical care. He also documents that cuban doctors and abroad are often thrust into violence situations in gang. Warfare forced to falsify statistics and required to give seventy five to ninety percent of their salary to the government. Cuba also has one of the highest abortion rates in the world. Many patients are pressured into having abortions to artificially improve infant mortality rates by preventing. Marginally riskier births from occurring. In other words. We cannot always believe what we see in the news as we noted in yesterday's daily article we need to pray not only about how to respond to the news in media of our day but even about what news we choose to consume. We are not to trust people only because they tell us what we want to hear jeremiah. Twelve six says even your brothers in the house of your father even they have dealt treacherously with you. They are in full cry after you do not believe them though they speak friendly words to you nor are spiritual leaders to be trusted if they do not lead us to the lord and his truth in verse. Ten jeremiah continues. Many shepherds have destroyed my vineyard. They have trampled down my portion. They've made my pleasant portion a desolate wilderness seeking in speaking biblical truth worth persuasive. Compassion is vital and urgent for a holy. God must inevitably judge sinful nations if any nation will not listen than i will utterly pluck it up and destroy it declares the lord by contrast psalm thirty three twelve declares is the nation whose god is the lord. The people whom he has chosen as his heritage. This fact is relevant. Not just for ancient israel but for us today behold the eye of the lord is on those who fear him on those who hope in his steadfast love the psalmist testified our heart is glad in him because we trust in his holy name we will be glad in god to the degree that we trust in him. The latter is essential to the former. The former is symptomatic of the latter. What are some practical steps. We can take to be more discerning with news in culture and thus more effective in using our influence for god's glory and the common good i we should follow news from a variety of perspectives. Making it a point to include those with which we may not agree subscribing to and supporting at least one. Local outlet is especially important since our influence begins in our jerusalem. Second we should encourage more christians to serve through news outlets reporting recognizing that their platform and influence are especially significant in these days of fulltime media. Consumption as each one has received a gift. Use it to serve one another third. We should use the communication tools available to us for god's greatest glory. If you have a cell phone and access to the internet you can speak to the world. What you say tweet right in post should always honor your savior and draw people to him whether you eat or drink or whatever you do do. All to the glory of god eric. Ladele is just one of many olympic athletes who've used their olympic platform for god's glory a gold medal winner at the nineteen twenty four summer olympics and subject of the nineteen eighty one film chariots of fire. He went on to serve as a missionary in china and died while a japanese prisoner in an internment camp ladele famously wrote to his sister before the olympics. I believe god made me for a purpose but he also made me fast. How is god made you fast today. Note as i discussed. Yesterday i am tweeting and breaking news throughout the day.

"Tanking. I imagine that it must have been devastating for everybody that was close to her including you to hear of her demise. There's definitely with you. Know harry and megan today. There's been a lot of discussions about the racism and the Injustice and even you know painting the british monarchy as some sort of organized. Crime that Had lady diana killed which seems to me a little bit outrageous. What what is your making of the harry and meghan interview and You know in positions who conspiracies or feelings that the the british aristocracy or monarchy is this harmful organization that needs to be restructured. Well i. I can't believe that i believe that. The distrupted institution. I feel that there are modes of behavior. The needs change. And as we're seeing from. Diana said usa what harry a meghan assigned. We're seeing a mechanism social mechanism. That was not available to them but in a also so interesting. Is that when we speak of the royal family will also speaking about the We're talking about the organization of the men in gray suits but actually hold the rubicon protocol cv in the full front of their consciousness. Out there the people. But meghan and harry were referring to when make it was speaking about the fact that she was severely concerned about her own mental state and that she wanted to gain assistance. It wasn't that you went to the queen. Will the do of edinburgh era men in gray suits and they were the people but actually Nullified her clang all said no. No no you have to do with it by yourself or whatever but this this makes it sound like the monarchy are held hostage by this firm. Handlers handlers yeah. They're victims of it. I think so. Yeah it's It's quite severe. And obviously through all this taking place recently with harry bank. I'm sure that there are going to be great changes You know. I'm sure there's already been a huge change as a result of prince philip passing. You know i was brought up in the whole of that. My father word with prince philip for thirty years. And so it's it's it's very interesting watching how the social mechanism of has changed over the years. Do the royal family assassinate diana nerve. No no but there is a force in the world which is very doc. And when we saw with martin luther martin luther king or jfk. Oh robert kennedy and other extorting people at malcolm x. In the united states the winds someone moves forward as social emancipator and their boss waves of population who were engaged in the brilliant. That message va out. And i feel the same thing happened with diana what i concentrate on the book on owning the book is not necessarily a conspiracy theory of ritualized. Killing what i concentrate. Tony's the extraordinary affect but took planks as diana met Demise the people who awoke in the most extraordinary way Which we see and other social situations for example the the drooled awakening that took place in new york city off tonight. Eleven where you had you know usual manhattan nights walking and smiling at one another wrong than grimacing at one another because of the speed of life So something very remarkable takes place when a chose pases. That's why i needed to bring in the element of to either we were referring to earlier on. What do you think diana would have thought about. Megan i think she would've loved her. I think meghan is so cool. She's beautiful she's forthright. She's intelligent and i feel now that we're really begin to see what What metal is all about what her might is all about. I think diana love because she is the voice of liberation. We'll certainly you know. There's a lot of criticism happening towards megan in the united states. They're like painting her as we've of getting into that relationship not realizing that she would be facing racism and prejudice and animosity. And i this. Because i'm married to somebody who sometimes uses their spouse as a way to fight with their family. I'm sorry we can't go to dinner tonight. One sushi so you guys are gonna have to fend for euro and i'm okay with me. This has nothing to do not that we can do whatever you like right and i think you know harry in some way. It regards is seeking out a relationship like the one with megan as a way to manage the racism the injustice the inequality that experiences at the hands of his. He's looking for an ally. I think he's looking for a wedge. Actually he's looking for a way to get out And i think he was attracted to make and not not just because she's a beautiful charismatic intelligent wonderful life partner but also because he instinctively knows that it's going to put a bee in their bonnet. That's what harry no. That's not harry. Harry is an absolute hauling. He's sweet combine sensitive man moore born more as heels the mental stub that he experienced in the short wave of his mother's passing and having to walk but interminable behind coffin the mole. He heals the anger of that situation. The mood the game to see him be forthright intelligence social emancipator. I feel thirty. And knowing them i felt that they fell in love. When we fall in love guys we know of all about in other words we fall in love and we follow the love to the ends of the earth. I feel that that's what he's actually doing. We've make an. I feel that there's a manipulative part of harry at all. I feel that now. What he's doing is using his intelligence engineer. Something but that's something very different from being psychic manipulation and i am not enough positioning him as as a manipulate person. I'm saying that We find relationships. We almost unconsciously get into relationships for wide variety of reasons. And i think definitely very clearly. Prince harry sought out that relationship with megan because he was wanting a better life for himself as well. He wanted to escape that situation but he may not have known it. It may be unconscious. Really.

"Familiar with that too seat and just to be clear martin. Bashir kind misled. Diana is that how tabloid journ martin bashir is known as the tabloid journalists and the press. And he's are notorious for pissing off after performance pacifica incident. I believe he said that we had some recordings that they didn't actually have. And so that kind of got her to do. This interview is that i am. I am i describing. Ah crackly and spencer diana's brother Suggests that the The entity was gained through various. Leans working on the paranoia in other words working on the sensitivity of diana. I mean you're the first thing that i feel that we need to say that she was a very remarkable human being in relation. To this hyper vigilance she had this. Extraordinary empathic intuitive sensitivity and it found being in the world as we see through the chronic lies nature of of her history from the beginning of her royal career. We could see her. Sensitivity was not fully appreciated by the heckman by the hierarchy. because it wasn't an intellectual scope graph friends. It was something that was deeply deeply deeply ceiling until spins his forward but the sensitivity of diana was increased by ohio by the interview with him and that possibly lead towards the demise. We sold where she was being hounded by the paps might my personal perspective of that interview where whether it was actually gained through nefarious means or not was that diana felt liberated by the interview. I think that's one of the reasons why it was recommended that i work with her. Because she wanted to expand all of the work that she was envisioning as a humanitarian as as a peace envoy unfeeling very secure in the position that she had maintained or had created five south and she wanted to move into extending that role is felt executive women of the world which is what saw She she still to to In a way that catherine or cut designed by a close but she was looking beautiful full and radiating this immense compassion that that was what was so different. From how where is the the british royal family have always been very removed hiding in the mystique of the what. I'm glad that you brought the substance. Diana moving forward and shaking behind oak someone who is hiv positive. She shook the world into reality in that moment just as when she wants but she was bullying can happen. Suffering group Polonia most adult life. Sixty thousand young women. Having heard the announcement the diana married suddenly contacted varying psychiatric institutes in the united kingdom and announced that they will also be lima and they wanted to. They wanted to have held. An astonishing amount of social awareness was ruled about purely and simply through the roof shing sensitivity of diana. I have to tell you she came here to chicago. I believe is a time when you were working with her. On two thousand. Six june of two thousand six and she just dazzled city because like you said she she transformed from that person that seemed very emotional and kind of sat in that interview and was nervous and she just became this electrifying powerful confidence stylish woman. The city was just absolutely obsessed with her. She danced with a phil. Donahue which is a local You know a national talk show host and everybody's found love with her. Did you have did you working with her before her chicago. Visit or only yeah. Yeah thank you because they we are. The proof of the pudding was a tone summation. Yeah she moved from being submissive cowering insecure individual. She was beginning to scalp her paw through sorts of different techniques. But at that point she really began to lift herself into a position of trans trends in dental consciousness. And that radiated this extraordinary love. She was amazing. What kind of exercises doodoo with her to have basically find her power. That already was there. Will i see the. We can't make a sound. if we're not breathing's very thing that i did was to really have a fully breeze through the extent of a body which means opening up the ribs as well as feeling the breath the ball in the ballet so that the support of the brass becomes really full. And when we do this you see the throat begins to open because the throat is we all know thing that closers when feeling nervous or frightened dog war diminished. And that that you know that's that sort of sound comes from you know. Where will you stop me. We closed the back of the tongue. And you know. I mean hybrid thing that we often here in new york city but if you drop in the back of the tongue all of the tony kahn's out so i this with her because she was great clenched in her through arts of the throw ping the passageway between feeling and thinking as it were And we worked on measured responses in terms of how she would get out of car was she was being in a covered by one hundred fifty hot flashes from the photographer steadfastly towards the people that she was going to be met by of how she would meet them with fully focused eye contact and then walk through the spags feeling absolutely grounded foot for by footfall and then when it was necessary for her to move onto the podium of how she would walk to the podium stand hold lack ton use the micro look straight ahead and showing love into the audience. Which i feel is apropos. What you were saying about chicago. I feel that that's what she did during that award ceremony in chicago and she was absolutely tanking. I imagine that it must have been devastating for everybody that was close to her including you to hear of her demise. There's definitely with you. Know harry and megan today. There's been a lot of discussions about the racism and the Injustice and even you know painting the british monarchy as some sort of organized.

"Her speaking out in public. Who sounds like martin short there. Is this ride dynamic in her the way she fx herself. And i'm wondering like in terms of the conversations that you had with her. You're like you know maybe don't try to sound so evil like how does this conversation wasn't around back there. But maybe he was in baltimore was inspired by that. You know i'm going to slowly cross your bones and drink the poche there. Is this this menacing tone that she takes in conversation that to me is is really comical. In some ways and julia anderson certainly pull that out in her performance. You're the man who was supposed to make her sound. Nice baltimore now. Well i never actually thought of that illusions. The on stuff but i i must say find who goal tomorrow and find out. You know voice on margaret thatcher particular angle laws that she was using the beginning of her career as a politician in one thousand nine hundred seventy nine nine hundred eighty. She was using. This sort of upper middle class sobbed sounded slightly. Like broken glass you now and i was called in because the ponti felt itchy. Need to to have greenwich tass. I'm so you know. I would you in her late at night sometimes early. In the morning when all essentials in the house of commons it finished. And i would have a bone. Her voice search speak across the chamber floor and she would find the way to voice immediately. Say that she could actually use these. Were really stentorian delivery which she developed That's what i was responsible. But i you know. Obviously harry potter wasn't around at that time you know. It's the next time that i chewed in. I will have south stoops. Fausto rob in my mind talking about multiple so thank you for that illusion as well unmistakable. And certainly like a there is. There's a threatening quality to her voice and i'm wondering is that something she wanted to cultivate or was was the conversation between the two of you like how do toll i become nicer how to become like and is it threatening because it may appear more masculine that what it is. Is that what you mean. It's breathy it's you worry of the world of the inferior person. Speaking to me. You know there is. There is some quality voice that she's exasperated by having to explain everything that she's a she's a i think margaret thatcher was a chemist. Right right like shiro background in science. You know what this world needs more now as more we don't need any more republicans but if there are going to be republicans we need republicans like margaret thatcher who at least have a background in science into. Yeah yeah and and so. I'm wondering like in terms of conversations that you guys had worse she was. She curious about changing or cultivating her voice to sound a certain way. What she wanted to discover was center in a voice. What she wanted to discover with graviton wasting voice would eventually came out. While is what ma. What margaret could purdue's you know I personally didn't think that it was that breathy. I felt that she was using breath into fullness of tone but the other point that you were really making is that margaret genius literally. And i'm sure you've met genie's around the world in your life. The they had this mental capacity which is just or inspiring. I mean margaret slept four hours a night and was had a photographic memory so she could actually read through document full of fakers to do with the fiscal records and then go into the chain bah and episode facto deliver the the come in the cheapest who read as though she'd learned it by heart. I mean it was just staggering. Now do with people who have this quality of genius that they can often appear to be intimidating because they move so fast. And that was the downfall eventually margaret. Because she didn't have any body within her cabinet who would muscle up to me. Mita at the same level of own delivery as a result of that genius becomes impatient as a result of that arrogance steps in. And i feel. She started to intimidate people. And that's the i lay that we remember. Where is it the beginning of a career. When i when i went with i found to be one of the most gracious one of the vice sky. What are the most considerate people that i've worked with she. She certainly nev- Was bruce all demanding or intimidated intimidate me. She was always gentle and kind and gracious speech lessons like for. Is it like my fair lady. Like a record and say the rain in spain stays mainly on the plane or because it's a very physical and spiritual us. Yeah i mean that's that's where it is with me. Yes i mean. It's very rare to be quite frank. It's really rare for me to be asked to help somebody with speech mortification. Very very very rare. So what am i suppose. That's the statement to the fact that qualities of speech styles of speech are highly individualized and very acceptable today. So it's very. It's very very rare. But i'm asked what i am asked to do is to help somebody with presence and that's my particular forte. So what i do is to allow the individual to find ways of being able to really sit in the very middle of voices that i was saying earlier so that they actually felt real could feel relaxed that they could feel calm conscious and commanding in other words that they could feel completely prison to each since being opened rather than moving too fast and not being able to feel about is or hear what they're saying wall really see to whom they were speaking as the first Quality of action that. I often draw people to that. They're not looking at audience. They not focusing on their audience so they begin to speak at rather than speaking to and so that that begins a huge inquiry into the way that the individual feels about the expression of their own power and if they really a alert within their bodies or in live within their bodies to have a sense your holiday that his open all they able to be able to really charm or mesmerize will magnetized people into the wonder of what they are about as human beings. So these are the qualities that i really work on than dealing with. How now brown cow. All those old speech tongue twister that we use two years. It's very rare. Well your book. I was a little bit surprised by it. Because there's so much spirituality in the book there's so much about affirming who you are your place in the universe. And in fact you mentioned like when lady diana died in a a message out through the universe to to to respect femininity into into take on the patriarch you. There is an indian term. That.

"People rather than mesmerizes people. It is really amazing. How audrey hepburn channels That elisa doolittle character in my fair lady which i imagined that every speech pathologists every voice coach is intimately familiar with that musical and the beginning of it. They're showing her as a as a poor flower girl and she speaks and people can understand what she saying. Did you say calm. We don't say can't in the united states because that sounds like something. Naughty can't can't can't maybe throw was not supposed to my ears. it should have been. Yeah absolutely well. I mean at one and i ain't old so it caught me whatever to the entree idea it's difficult. It's very difficult Although today you know geographically speaking Levels mobility are suing extraordinary accents or dialect saw beginning to be ironed out. And so it's much easier to be able to specify where people from. Although i find it very interesting that when i'm in the back of a cab in new york city often the driver says to me wearing frahm think i'm from noon. I put on my best down to the abbey voice. They say south african australian. Have you ever watched downton abbey. Oh my god here. English everything in new york city. Everybody's so used to you. Know that sort of sound. That ricky as makes so open lot roaster s joy. English was your as opposed to allowing each file to have third enunciate to ten dollars. Stewart from iowa for all we know in part of it is like you're right now in american culture popular culture. Everybody's very obsessed with ryan. Murphy's miniseries halston where the great legendary designer who was born in iowa grew up in indiana and talk like this very sophisticated and part of it. I started thinking about this david. Sedaris wrote in his book me talk pretty one day about how common it is for gay men to get speech. Lessons fix their gay lisp. But we've also observed in films like the king's speech where british aristocrats or even the monarchy. And in that film in your life hired voice coaches to get them to speak clearly indeed. Yeah absolutely. yeah. I i watched The netflix's halston the other evening. I haven't i haven't completed it often in the series. I thought it fascinating the way the the name of the actor. Why does the name church. Thank you so much. Who's yeah smoke. It's like you know any very key found this wonderful turn. You obviously eat study videos of allston producing that wonderful and it seems that halston was moving towards something that he perceived to be more classical bearing in mind the intelligence speech the ib lee closers of the northeastern seaboard. Because that was the social media that he wanted to move into but as a result developed his own very specific to knowlegde of which i thought was really fascinating that he would sound in the particular way and then behave in other ways. Which was quite licentious was the seventies and eighties right. Well you have a theory that a lot of gay men grew up watching these black and white transatlantic movies and so that's why they sound like halston. Oh yeah. They sat inside on a rainy day with their mother and watch the old movies. I thunder folk. The drag queen from rupaul's drag race is from irie pennsylvania hometown though but. I don't think we sound anything alike alaska. Sounds like the and it's a little bit of a valley girl in their pittsburghese but there is this kind of pause quality to the way they be. I'm curious to know like you know because worked with legends. How profoundly intimidate intimidating. It must be to be brought in front of margaret thatcher of lady diana and be like come here young man and teach me how to speak. How do you begin. That's having that conversation with somebody who is in such a position of power and intimidation to guide them into being better people Interesting question well. Firstly we both women booth margaret and diana. I found them to be extraordinarily easy to meet to develop a pool with but you know the prima facie cool always for me is that i listen to what the individual wants so it allows to come myself if i feel. Nervous will fearful. What was you saying slightly intimidated by somebody. Who august as margaret thatcher. I thirteen stillness. Just received what they what they wish. Respond to whatever their questions may be an out of this. One can develop a strategy. Aw a formulation of what. The possibility is it. Purely in simply in relation to walt been needs rather than putting posing something onto them. And that i've always found is a way to be out to suit use people into feeling easy feeling con ceiling centered and feeling that they can receive. Because obviously when we're dealing with people who awful filling a global responsibility or a nation addition responsibility as for example these ladies what but they. They have lost perspective of what that responsibility is under crosses. We know at times what it does is to inflate the echo so by calming them. And by as i was saying just seducing them into the point of view of the I i can be trusted. Why can be a confidential witness. But i can begin to interact with them and give them just a few things to think about but will help them find a way of being able to improve or to accelerate whatever the wanderers that they've already begun to discover scalp up. So were you well known as a voice coach as a speech pathologist in your field and that's sort of what led you to working with.

What Biden's America could look like
"In much of the world and nowhere more. So than among america's allies joe biden's victory has come as a great relief under his presidency. There will be no more bullying and threats to leave. Nato america will stop treating the european union as a photo on trade or its own forces stationed in south korea as a protection racket in place of donald. Trump's wrecking bowl. Mr biden will offer an outstretched hand working over simply on global crises. From kuroda to climate change under mr trump america's favorability ratings in many allied countries sank to new lows. Mr biden promises to make america a beacon again a champion of lofty values and the defender of human rights leading as he puts it in his acceptance speech not only by the example of our pa but by the power of our example allies are central to mr biden's vision he rightly sees them as a multiplier of american influence tuning a country with a quarter of global. Gdp into a force with more than double that he is also a multilateral by instinct on his first day in office he will rejoin the paris agreement on climate change which america formerly left on november the fourth unlike mr trump. He believes it is better to lead the world health organization than to leave it. He will reinvigorate arms control a priority being to ensure order new. Start the last remaining. Nuclear pact with russia is extended beyond february the fifth he would like to rejoin the nuclear deal with iran that mr trump dumped if he can persuade the iranians to go back into compliance inevitably. America's friends have a long list of things they hope it will do as it reimburses global leadership the demand stretch from places and organizations. Mr trump has abused such as the un and allies like germany. Two parts of the world. He has ignored such as much of africa. And it will not be smooth traveling not all countries in our style jake for a return to obama era politics when america lead from behind and blood. It's red lines. Several countries on nato's front line with russia like the way defenses. Have been beefed up under mr trump and asian allies like how mr trump has confronted. China talked a free and open indo pacific and worked on the cloud with australia india and japan. Mr biden needs to prove that he will not turn soft. His priorities will be to quell virus and improve the economy on both counts. He can count on little support and much pushback. If the senate is under republican control as is likely such troubles at home have probably also exacerbated. The country's reluctance to take on more foreign burdens. Who can be sure that world-weary jacksonians will come galloping. Back in twenty twenty four. Perhaps even with mr trump in the saddle so rather than pile demand upon needed demand. America's allies should go out of their way to show that they have learned to pull their weight. Nato partners for example should not relax defense spending just because mr trump is no longer bullying them. Germany should pay heed to french. Average to build european defense capacity. there is scope to do so without undermining nato europeans could lend a big hand to france in these suheil in asia. The quad could keep deepening naval and other cooperation. Japan and south korea should restrain their feuding taiwan or to make a more serious contribution to its own defense. I should also work with america to repair the international order. They can support efforts to resist chinese or russian rule. Bending many countries will want to join mr biden's efforts at concerted carbon cutting mr biden will face a world full of problems but he will also start with strengths. Thanks to mr trump. He has sanctions on adversaries including iran and venezuela that he can use as chips and among friends he can seek to convert relief at renewed american engagement into stronger. Burden-sharing is allies would be wise to answer that call with enthusiasm. Finally how princess diana shaped british politics netflix's flagship series. The crown has done a fine job of telling the story of postwar britain through the prism of the monarchy. The previous series nephew is in the mid nineteen seventies mired in the miners strike and the three day week new one which began streaming on november fifteenth. Introduces us to two women. Who were destined to change the country in profound ways margaret thatcher and lady diana spencer lady thatcher made it clear from the first but she was in the business of changing the nation. They design a spencer was a bird of a very different feather. Shy girl who had failed all her o levels twice and had no interest in politics she was brought onto the national stage for the soaker of producing mail as to the throne yet. The country is still living with her political legacy as surely as it is with lady. Thatcher's princess diana's genius was to mix two of the most profound forces of modern politics emotion and anti elitism into a powerful populist cocktail. She was one of the modern masters of the politics of emotion. Feeling the people's pain just as they felt hers. She repeatedly outmaneuvered prince. Charles during long war of the wales's because she was willing to bare her soul in public interview with martin bashir of the bbc in november. Nineteen ninety-five is now the focus of controversy as her brother earl. Spencer claims that it was obtained under false pretenses using forged documents. Whatever the reason for it. The interview was a masterclass in emotional manipulation at one pivotal moment. Princess diana acknowledged that she would never be queen but hope that she would be queen of people's hearts. The princess used her mastery of the politics of feeling to turn himself into a champion of the people against the powerful. The people's princess in tony blair's raise she patronized charities that helped marginalized folks such as hiv patients and kept company with pop stars and celebrities rather than with the usual royal wax. Books the most memorable music at her funeral was not an historic him. But a song by elton john adapted for herbert originally written about another icon. Turn victim marilyn monroe. Anti elitism was directed. Not at the monarchy's wells. She happily lived in kensington palace and received a seventeen million pound. That's twenty three million dollar divorce. Settlement plus four hundred thousand pounds a year but added stunted emotional state the traditional deal to which royal side allow them to behave as they liked in crowded kings have almost always had mistresses because they marry her reasons of dynasty not compatibility so long as they behaved with decorum in public princess. Diana regarded this humbug. She succeeded in reconciling the most. Jarring of opposites despite being a top tier aristocrat. Her family the spencers. Look down on the windsors this german carpetbaggers. She was universally known as die. Her death in a car crash won her a spectacular posthumous victory against the royal court. It produced the greatest burst public lack remission. Britain has ever seen and led to widespread demands that the royal should display more emotion. As if the damn cheek could replace the stiff upper lip as the definition of britishness. What would really do the monarchy. Good show that they had grasped the lesson of diana's popularity and editorial in the independent thundered would be for the queen and the prince of wales to breakdown cry and hug one another on the steps of the abbey this saturday. Cincinnati death emotional. Populism has threaded through politics. Tony blair presented himself as the people's prime minister. He championed cool. Britannia surrounded himself with popstars and urged his staff to call me. Tony the next conservative prime minister call me. Dave cameron a distant relation of princess. Diana's adopted this combination of compassion signaling. Hugging hoodies is instead of cracking down on juvenile delinquents and studied informality relaxing and kitchen suppers replacing previous. Tory premier stiffness. Both men were responsible to that emotional. Populism interfere with the affairs of state domestic and foreign policy choices continued to be conducted according to the dictates of reason evidence brexit tears. By contrast follow the diana's script they appeal to the heart rather than the had to win their arguments. They used feelings of patriotism and resentment rather than facts about trade flows. They denounced the elites for trying to straight the wisdom of the people in much the same way as diana files denounce the palace for ignoring the people's emotions lay turned on the nation's core institutions. Parliament the civil service the supreme court when they suspected attempts to frustrate their wishes they succeeded in defeating the establishment in much the same way as princess diana had by claiming to stand for emotion rather than reason and the people rather than the elite alexander. Boris federal johnson has reconciled the opposites. He embodies justice. She did a card carrying member of the metropolitan elite. He has managed to sell himself as a man of the people as she was die. So he is. Boris the first series of the crown shows a young queen. Elizabeth studying water badgett's english constitution under the guidance of henry. Martin the vice provost of eton who kept a pet raven in a cage and address the on crisis gentlemen budgets. Great work distinguishes between the dignified branch of the constitution. The monarchy and the efficient branch elected politicians implicit in that distinction is badges perception. That emotions pose a dangerous threat to the proper conduct of politics. The monarchy provides a controlled lead for them thus enabling responsible people to get on with the difficult task of running the country by using people's feelings as the fuel for her astonishing career princess. Diana broke that safety valve britain will be living with the consequences of the emotional populism that she helped to release for years to come.

Paul Burston: So Many Men, So Little Time
"It was nineteen eighty-eight so I would have been twenty two. I think I finished university and I devoted myself base being a full-time seen queen and I was having a lot of fun of fun. There wasn't really low drugs around that I was not that I was aware of anyway. People get drunk on beer or steal beer. Sometimes I could not that pint of that so it wasn't that kind of like glass frontier. We're happy to be seen. It was all quite behind doc windows. And it was like ultra ultraviolet lights everywhere because everyone's dandruff. On their showed there's video. Scrimmage was a novelty a video screen and a bar and you can pay money to choose videos. We should be done for videos in those days to watch pope whenever you want it to always have. Don't leave me this way by Bouncy. Cb there was always on when whenever into Harpoon Louie's that was on and there was. I WANNA dance with somebody by Whitney. Houston they take me back to those year to that place there were different of tribes within that as well so that look you had that kind of Franken Hollywood's look should. I was pretty those Saturday night at half and that was I was the only night at Heaven which I actually came out by going to heaven so I came. I didn't tell anybody I just went to have on my own and stood outside and I knew I knew there was GEICO. Having everyone knew that and I've seen something in time out magazine I think it was And I went to long understood outside. I spiked up. Hair like friendly McCullough from Akron. The bunny man. I had plucked eyebrows and makeup. I think two hearings in each year on knows that as well and I stood side for about two hours. Watching these men queuing up. None of looked tore like me. They all looked like village people and number shirts and moustaches and I couldn't. I just couldn't go in so I said as a chain smoking I went back to Waterloo train back to Richmond and university again but I went back the next Saturday and the next Saturday and then invention third week I actually picked up the courage to go in getting a little bit closer and I went down those hallowed stairs and I remember that the sense of the smell which I didn't mechanism bustos was poppers. Didn't what he wants to start old socks and you walk into this room and the first thing I heard was this guy sort of swished by saying so many men so little time extra popular tune if the time and I just turned and ran out again because it terrified me and then the funding we went back and I stood literally lately with my back against the wall. Didn't talk to anybody. Stood up against the wall looking people as nineteen of so terrified and then eventually someone talked to me and then not wanting another with that particular. One just generally without something with that particular. Someone broke my heart though. Of course best bastard but to do it come out. It wasn't the best way probably be go to pick new. Only be terrified. Puts ME IN MIND TO SWIM? You start off just you in the water. Then you float. He's on and yes and above our and then you start moving around and I. I've always tend to jump into things too much so I have my local Gay Mitchell. After goes the biggest gates and in the whole world. The time probably to do it. Yeah just throw from seven to that. I left. I'd many many many great times than many great times then over the subsequent years and there so many men so little time. Well they were yes definitely in both senses because we didn't realize then just many men. We're going to have so little time unusual. Change very very quickly became quite prophetic. Really I was making up for lost time. I had fun. I made lots of new friends. Even if you didn't the names at least at least we were together. I'm quite choosy like that. Yeah I actually had sex with somebody wants waiting for night bus into Vulgar Square. Actually in the night in the queue of the night in the kids. Yeah Yeah Yeah by. The National Gallery was no one else in the queue tempted to join in offer offer. Some kind of the neighbors and developed square knows. Days was a real hotbed activity. Whatever would come from heaven or Soho in the middle of the week and they just be. So many gay guys queuing the but Vulgar Square. Honestly say people from that period for similar stories of just like getting on the different night because you fancied some but in finding you in Eastland and you live in Richmond. Just there was. There was a hottie on the and hoping that they'd give you some wet they usually did of charity for me. Part of the fun of those of that period of my life was that you'd go out and you'd meet people and you would normally meet meet a cross section of people. I have friends all different ages. Different backgrounds and sexualities and genders much more fragmented later and I think that the sex it can victim of own success in a way. Because there wasn't there wasn't the connections after AIDS happens because that was a huge thing in my life or knows about twenty five twenty six most of my gay male friends at that point. Were some years old me because I was I I wanted to learn. I wanted to own it someone to be my older brother and teach me and show me the ropes and some and they were the ones that died so I lost all of them pretty much and then I became an aids activist and got me involved in that and the for all of the for all the things that I would not change for anything but a lot of things about the eighty S. I would never want to have back. But there was a sense of community. People did pull together and they did rally and there were. There was communication between different generations. Different tribes within within our communities. And now it is. That's true anymore. I think that there was a break in the chain because there was generation that was kind of lost to HIV AIDS. There was the generation that we're impacted by it like my generation who went to flow of grief innovation space sandwiches very traumatic. And I'm probably not really over yet still in there some degree and then it becomes a very difficult subject to talk about so you don't talk about it very often and then the younger kids come in. And they've got half of this happens. They know the history half the time when you talk to. You have no idea what was going on ten fifteen years before they were. Because why would you know? I didn't WANNA die. Young either. Must be about twenty two when I first heard about it my boyfriend at the time. Read something in one of gay papers and said we have to stop using condoms and I was like. Whoa and then I'd heard that someone I was at college with who was a mature student and he disappeared for a long period. He didn't come back after this term. I then learned on the grapevine that he was gay. Had THIS BOYFRIEND WHO AMERICAN. They basically both contracted dictionary and he died really community rapidly. I wasn't really. I didn't know he might just name to say hi to billy and he was the first person that was. I that I knew of and then the guy was living in the in the tower block with who I was very close to and it was the real mentor of mine. I moved and I went to see him one night and He was he was all something ought to buy it. The whole evening was very strange and strained and I remember asking him about how he say. Seeing somebody recently this new boyfriend and I saw how things go with a boyfriend and he said Oh. What's been difficult because he he's he's a he's upset because I don't I don't have sex now that I majorly positive. And that was how that was how he told me. And I just put the spray face on and just get through this conversation. I was absolutely shocked. Devastated because at that in that back. They're not meant to death. Sentence there was there was no treatment and I remember sitting to this dinner feeding. Obser- your phone and then getting home on the train and just crying. The whole journey home. He became really really quickly and then he was. He won't one of his dying wishes as you wanted to go to. Amsterdam you know Vietnam and his friends. Most of them were straight women elected person to take him and I went. I took him to them on this trip and I spent the whole time. What thinking he was going to die on me. And how am I going to manage to get him what I do? I was twenty four years of age. Twenty five this. It was horrendous. It was very frightening when he was hospitalized to visit him and habit. Bobi helping with things. I remember one time picking up urine bottle onto the bed and tipping acid typically myself and being paranoid even though I knew deep down that this was not something that was good pose. Any risk to me. We didn't really know people didn't really know no. There wasn't much information. And this is before lady. Diana went into the AIDS. Ward this before this sort of stuff happened it was it was still appeared it was not really spoken about if it was spoken about hushed voices and it was very frightening time and he was a very very good community minded person he he was involved in the running of the building and everyone knew who he was he would chair meetings and whatever and then after he got. L. Someone Daubed on his front door house of AIDS on his front door and then he died and I was really in the state about it and reading the papers. There was a meeting happening at the London. Lesbian Gay Entering Cow Cross Street and Farrington. Which is not no longer there but it was very popular but place back then and there was a meeting happening and his act up and I I knew I act up was happening in America. Knew what actor boss I went to this meeting. I just threw myself into it and it took up my life completely for like three years and it was way of channelling the grief because in an over over those three years it was just one funeral after another. He was just he got to the point. Where you'd actually dread answering the phone. And I used to a Filofax that was an effects back in the eighty s. My member year just taking all the names out taking people out because people are just dying all the time even my family. I mean little bits but they just did not understand why this was any different to my grandfather dying because that's expected because he's fucking eighteen easily and he smokes these ill and mentioned me dying and late. Twenties and early Thirties. It's it's completely mad. It was it was like there was a war going on but only we knew about it was the why was completely oblivious and yet within our world which is very very contains. Gay London world. There was a war going on and people were dying all around us and we were expected to carry on as normal. What you have the you do that.
