Reflecting on the Monarchy

The UK and the British Commonwealth officially said goodbye to the Queen Elizabeth II this week as her funeral was held.

Andy, Steve, Troy, and Wes came together to debrief their reactions to the passing of Queen Elizabeth II, and to reflect on monarchy in general and the British monarchy in particular.
