This week we’re taking a look at Meghan Markle’s recent appearance in Geneva at the Lost Screen Memorial, where she delivered a speech on the “dangerous bargain” we’ve made with social media. This speech at the World Health Organisation symbolises a contemporary peak for Meghan’s aim to become a global welfare advocate, but within the context of her family’s $3 Million per-year up-keep costs, and the publicity of her own children, these appearances might not look like the altruistic and omnibenevolent ventures of a traditional royal, but a clamber for social credit and ‘good’ PR.

In this episode:

Meghan’s Geneva speech: Analyzing her WHO appearance and the impact of her message on digital violence
The dilemma of social media: How Meghan is attempting to position herself as a leader for child protection in the digital age.
Decoding the "Project Thaw" speculation and how it might be affecting Harry and Meghan’s current media strategy
Fashion as a tool: Why her choice of a structured $4,000 Gabriela Hearst suit was a deliberate move toward "serious" credibility
Why the timing and location of these European appearances matter for their future prospects
