With the passing of Queen Elizabeth II (1926-2022), we pay tribute to her as a person whilst wondering what a monarchy means in the 21st century. We'll profile Alexandre Desplat's score to the 2006 film The Queen as we juggle other queens amongst the usual round of other topics, including Polaris Prize nominee (and winner) catch-up, recent Emmy news and other things going wrong around the world in this dense episode. Giddy up, go pony!
