## Resource

Maureen Callahan discusses Meghan Markle's crumbling "As Ever" brand with new polling that shows a steady decline in market interest, while highlighting Meghan’s past comments on costly merchandise that contradict the prices she has listed on her website. She also revisits of Meghan’s claim that she didn't understand the Royal family’s global significance before meeting Prince Harry, and offers proof to the contrary. Then Maureen dissects the depraved mind of director Sam Levinson and the dark, twisted imagery in the season finale of "Euphoria," shares her thoughts about a new report on Diddy's ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura fleeing the country, and slams Coldplay kiss cam woman for her inability to let go of her 15 minutes of fame. Later in the show, Maureen is joined by NYT Bestselling author Doug Brunt to discuss his latest book, "The Lost Empire of Emmanuel Nobel."
