In this season finale episode of From Below the Balcony, Graham and Abby are joined by Grenadian activist Arley Gill and Jamaican academic Rosalea Hamilton to discuss abolishing the monarchy across the Caribbean.

The royals were complicit in the colonisation of Australia and many other countries across the world. Despite this, they've never apologised. That's why this week's podcast guest, Australian Senator Lidia Thorpe heckled Charles last year when he visited down under.

How do the royals cling to their political influence and power? And how have they managed to get parliament to rubber-stamp this for years?
