This week on Eavesdroppin’ comedy podcast, Geordie & Michelle head to Nepal to unpack one of the most shocking and controversial royal stories of modern times…

On1 June 2001, a routine Friday night family dinner at the Narayanhiti Royal Palace ended in unimaginable tragedy when King Birendra, Queen Aishwarya and seven other members of the Nepalese royal family were mercilessly gunned down – but by whom? The official investigation concluded that King BIrendra’s son, the Crown Prince Dipendra, carried out the massacre before dying from his own injuries — but for many, that explanation raised as many questions as it answered, leading to the conspiracy theories that refuse to go away. Diving in, Geordie looks at the claims of palace intrigue and political cover-ups and an eerie legend dating back to1769that foretold the downfall of Nepal’s Shah dynasty after ten generations. Is history colliding with myth, or has the truth been hiding in plain sight all along? So grab a brown lemonade and settle in as the duo chat murder dreams, backpacker travels and more on Eavesdroppin’. And remember, wherever you are, whatever you do, just keep Eavesdroppin’!
