After a four-week hiatus, Meghan Markle’s top-rated podcast “Archetypes” will resume with new episodes on Oct. 4.

The Duchess of Sussex had paused her Spotify podcast out of respect to Queen Elizabeth II’s passing in September.

Prior to the pause, Markle had recorded three episodes and quickly established the podcast as one of America’s top-rated productions.

Her first guest was longtime friend Serena Williams.

Deadline reports that the first episode back will feature comic and actress Margaret Cho as well as Lisa Ling, in a conversation that is centered around Asian American representation in the entertainment industry.

In a teaser released prior to the release of “Archetypes,” Markle explained that the crux of her podcast was to “investigate the labels that try to hold women back.”
