When Queen Elizabeth passed away last year, her first son, Charles, was immediately elevated from The Prince of Wales to The King. Now after a transition period of eight months in the making, Charles will officially be crowned this weekend at the Coronation. 

While most of us have never actually lived through a coronation, we do know a few things about it. 

In this episode of The Quicky, we take a look at what the coronation involves, what changes from here, what does it mean for the future of the Monarchy and as Australians, is it a moment of reflection on the relevancy of our place within in?

HEADLINES: Calls For Calm In Alice Springs & Trump Moves On Hormuz 

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/3ea926be-9be7-482a-8ac3-a44f016e43d1/clips/42d1be12-8a3c-45fc-99fe-b43f01726734/transcript

It is fashion’s biggest night of the year, but the Met Gala is much more than just a parade of celebrities on a red carpet.

As we prepare for the 2026 event, we explore why this exclusive party is actually a vital fundraiser that bankrolls fashion as an art form. We dive into this year’s conceptual theme, and the dress code that's expected to ditch 'pretty dresses' for sculptural, gallery-level installations.

Plus, we look at the power players making headlines this year; with Beyoncé returning to co-chair for the first time in a decade, and Jeff Bezos’ controversial sponsorship causing a stir, the guest list is as much about cultural tension as it is about couture.

🗞️ HEADLINES
Friends urge Harry Styles to get a prenup
Hearings delving into anti-semitism in Australia begin today
Trump says he's unlikely to accept a new Iranian peace deal because "The Iranians had not yet paid a big enough price"
Aussie Sam Kerr is now Chelsea's all time leading goal scorer after slotting her 64th
The Academy has brought in new rules that blocks AI from ever winning an Oscar
