## Resource

Royal editor Russell Myers is in Brazil with Daily Mirror photographer Ian Vogler, following Prince William on his visit for the Cop30 climate summit. In this special episode recorded both in Belém and Rio de Janeiro, Russell and Ian chat about being star stuck by football legend Cafu at the Maracanã Stadium, visiting the Christ the Redeemer statue and Sugarloaf Mountain, and Ian's interaction with pop superstar Shawn Mendes. With Earthshot at the halfway point of its ten-year plan, the Pod Save the King duo also discuss the Prince of Wales' environmental statesmanship, and potential future destinations for the "showbiz and razzmatazz" ceremony. The ongoing fallout from Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, the former Prince and Duke of York, eventually comes up in conversation, and how the Waleses are handling their controversial family member.
