Queen Elizabeth II was an iconic monarch whose reign spanned 70 years at the time she passed on September 8, 2022. During her time on the throne, she eloquently guided her people through wars, economic prosperity, recessions, social unrest, and the Covid-19 pandemic.
In this episode, we listen to two of the Queen's most iconic speeches: her first Christmas address after she became queen in 1952 and her heartfelt memorialization of Princess Diana after her passing in 1997.
Join me in this episode as we pay tribute to Queen Elizabeth II. Long live the queen!
