Voice is a very powerful medium-more original and authentic. Most of the time people who feel that what they said have been manipulated prefer to voice themselves with no filters. And podcasts are thus such mediums. The ‘Suits’ actress Meghan Markle has chosen podcast to be a medium to interview successful women from different fields to break down harmful labels put on women.
“I think that what happens, looking in from the outside, when there is this much noise, is that you become dehumanized. But if you remember that someone is a human being, then you don’t treat them, talk about them, look at them the same way,” the Duchess shares her agenda for her podcast. It seems like the actress had taken a liking to podcasts and it’s doubtful if she will return back to acting.

Meghan Markle And Archetypes
“My hope for “Archetypes” is that people come out thinking, “Oh! She’s a real person! She laughs and asks questions and approaches things with curiosity”,” Meghan Markle said what she wants her interviewers to think about her as a host. Markle shared her experience with Paris Hilton. She frankly admitted that the interview with Hilton had been the one she had been most nervous about. The host had made judgments about her based on what she had seen about Hilton.
“So much of what I ended up thinking about when I thought about Paris, was envy and judgment — two of the most dangerous things. But then you hear about her trauma and her life and her buying into this persona. Ultimately, I told her, “I’m really sorry that I judged you”,” Megan explained. The podcast host feels that her show is kind of humanizing the women who have been judged so much.

About Returning To Hollywood
“I didn’t think I’d ever be in the entertainment industry again. But the entire culture has changed; streamers have changed things. The ability to create zeitgeist moments like we had in the ’90s — where everyone would tune in at the same time for a show or gather for one moment? — that doesn’t happen anymore,” the Duchess confirms why she will not be coming back to the industry. Markle tells how she felt connected with the audience as they came together at the same time to watch her show. But this doesn’t happen anymore and she feels that a cultural moment doesn’t happen anymore.
