Margaret and Anton continue on in their discussion of Season 1, Episode 4 of Young Royals by delving into the details of the cinematography. While both of your hosts are collectively possessed by possibly the most wild energy of any other episode of PDTA to date, Margaret points out an initial lack of scenes depicting Wilhelm actively and visibly grieving until he is back at Hillerska, and Anton articulates how the warmth of the lighting in dialogue scenes between Felice and Wille interestingly gives credence to other characters' perception of the two as a potential romantic pairing, in a way that was not true before 1x04.

Anton and Margaret are finally back discussing this amazing show, talking about Wilmon (Wilhelm x Simon) in Season 1, Episode 4 of Young Royals. While somehow managing to keep this episode a one-parter, Anton stakes his claim for what the pod's sign-off Officially MeansTM, and Margaret identifies the unique way in which Simon mourns the loss all of the characters experienced at the end of the last episode.

We're back, baby! Margaret and Anton sit behind their respective mics for the first time as people who have seen all of Young Royals and dish about the documentary that released alongside the series finale, Young Royals Forever. While just gushing about anything and everything regarding this loving documentary (and keeping in-depth S3 thoughts to a minimum!), Margaret gets into how their co-host make them nauseous with a single text, and Anton proposes what would have happened if Wilhelm was never the prince.

We're back, baby! Margaret and Anton make a glorious return to the podcast after their S3-watching hiatus by starting off a new cycle and summarizing Season 1, Episode 4 of Young Royals. While they both try to keep from crying on mic multiple times, Margaret calls out two late famous geneticists, and Anton describes an intimate scene so explicitly that it all but guarantees this episode will be demonetized on YouTube if the videos of this podcast one day make money.

YOUNG ROYALS EVENTS

[Photo description: Photo of Simon and Wilhelm holding hands in the library. Text: YOUNG ROYALS EVENTS.]

The show has ended but our love for Young Royals did not. This is why we decided to create this blog, to host events for the Young Royals fandom so that we can continue spreading our love for this show.

Events are for everyone, not only for fanfic writers. We want everyone to feel included in those events. So fanartist, gif makers, edits maker, please feel welcome in the events we will host in the future as we wish to feel all the art forms in our upcoming events.

Also, this account is not to overshadow other events in the fandom, but to create new ones. We hope, with those events, that everyone feels encouraged to continue creating for this show that changed our lives.

Stay tuned for some news that will be coming soon!

YOUNG ROYALS FOREVER

Bonus 09 | FÖRLÅT: 1x03 Cycle Corrections -- follow the link below to listen!!

(TW: References to suicidal ideation, suicide, classism, and age gap relationships)

Anton and Margaret are here to formally round out their 1x03 Cycle with an informal bonus ep reading out listener's DMs about stuff they think your hosts should know. While finding the experience more enjoyable than ever before, Anton makes every effort to summarize a complicated rundown about an arcane economic topic, and Margaret briefly loses their mind over the number of languages known (as least a little bit) by the pod's most prolific listener.

(TW: References to possible hate crimes, violence, and child pornography)

Margaret and Anton end their COMING WHEN bonus series with a detailed rundown of the Official Trailer for Young Royals Season 3. While trying not to overthink or worry about any detail too much, Margaret rightly corrects Anton on the identity of character on the back of Ayub's motorcycle, and Anton connects the tangled mess of scenes in the trailer by the different outfits worn.

(TW: References to implicit fatphobia, abusive family dynamics, classism, and violence)

Anton and Margaret close out their discussion of Young Royals Season 1, Episode 3 with their usual tackling of miscellaneous symbols and the themes that underlie them. While contemplating what these symbols mean for the characters' arcs as well as how other characters perceive them differently, Anton fixates on what one symbol could have meant, and Margaret locks in on the what might be considered the first time Wille chooses Simon over his family.

(TW: References to classism, homophobia, and sudden loss)

Margaret and Anton turn to the thematic once again with discussion of class and monarchy in Young Royals Season 1 Episode 3. While appreciating the depth this episode brings to the world, Margaret asserts it's not a reach to call August shallow, and Anton once again defends the episode's major final plot point and why it had to happen.

(TW: References to sudden loss)

Anton and Margaret discuss Erik (for the final time...) in Season 1, Episode 3. While appreciating the narrative weight such a relatively small character can have, Anton once again complicates the fandom's image of Erik, and Margaret considers an odd wrinkle of Erik's approach to his brother.

Bonus 07 | COMING WHEN: Brain Breaking [S3 Official Clip and Promo Photos have dropped!] -- follow the link below to listen!!

(SPOILER WARNING: This bonus episode contains explicit and implicit spoilers for the first two seasons of Young Royals.)

So. This is awkward. Anton and Margaret recorded this episode about the new Official Clip, the Promo Photos, and the Season 3 release date announcement before the trailer for S3 came out. Please enjoy the delicious dramatic irony of knowing more than these past versions of them. While your hosts engage in a little wild speculation, Anton obsesses over Wille's access to Simon's phone number, and Margaret expresses hope for Sara seeing sense.

(TW: References to addiction)

Margaret and Anton continue their character analyses with a discussion of Sara in Young Royals Season 1, Episode 3. While finding Sara to mostly slip into the background this episode, Margaret critiques more elaborate courses of action to avoid the luncheon slip-up, and Anton reflects on the poetry of this utter disaster waiting to happen.

(TW: References to abusive family dynamics and fatphobic language)

Anton and Margaret turn to checking in with their feelings on Felice in Young Royals Season 1, Episode 3. While just feeling really bad for her, Anton highlights her mom's unhinged facial expressions at the luncheon, and Margaret muses on Wilhelm's combined empathy and total of lack of awareness in the scene that follows.

(TW: References to classism, suicide, and grief)

Margaret and Anton tackle a discussion of August in Young Royals Season 1, Episode 3. While finding the most understanding they've had yet for why August is the way he is, Margaret points us towards the unavoidable factor of his past trauma, and Anton imagines a younger August's reaction to the environment of Hillerska.

(TW: References to classism and violence)

Anton and Margaret proceed onwards with the character episodes for Young Royals Season 1, Episode 3 by stanning Simon.
