And yet, here we are again – listening to Every Day's a Train Wreck episode 19, where the latest Meghan Markle spectacle is dissected with the utmost care.

The Meghan Markle Netflix Show: A New Chapter in the Saga

This time, it's all about her Netflix show With Love, Meghan – and surprise, surprise, it’s not a love letter to her critics. Instead, it’s another chapter in the ongoing saga of Why Do We Care So Much About What Meghan Markle is Doing Today?

Marley’s joined by Daily Mail journalist Ellen Manning, a woman who’s clearly seen it all when it comes to the Duchess of Sussex and is here to help us figure out whether Meghan is really that much of a train wreck, or if the internet’s collective obsession is simply the most entertaining game of ‘let’s pick apart every little thing she does’ that we've ever played.

But let’s be real – no one cares about royal protocol when there’s a show about making your own Epsom salts. It’s like the internet can’t decide if it’s judging Meghan’s genuine effort at creating a lifestyle brand or simply waiting for the next chance to drag her. Either way, it’s content, and the people need their content.

The Million-Dollar Question: Is Meghan Markle Getting Special Scrutiny?

But here's the million-dollar question: Is this actually different from the countless other celebrity lifestyle shows out there, or does Meghan Markle just get an entirely different (and harsher) level of scrutiny because, well, she’s Meghan Markle? Ellen dives into the why behind the hate-watching, love-hating phenomenon that is Meghan Markle’s life, and trust us, you’ll have thoughts.

Should You Be Making Your Own Epsom Salts?

So, should you be making your own Epsom salts or just buying them like the rest of us? Should we all just embrace Meghan’s version of perfect, beige utopia – or is it time to face the fact that we’re all secretly hoping she drops a casserole dish on the floor just so we can finally have some real drama? Tune in to find out.

Spoiler: You’ll definitely judge her cookware.
