Also yeah, I said history twice. I like history.

TRANSCRIPT

No, I’m not changing the tagline, but I have changed the official name of the show, primarily for SEO, that is, Search Engine Optimization. As you probably know because you clearly like learning about a lot of stuff and are quite likely attractive to boot as listeners to this show,  it’s helpful to have key words and phrases in your title that can help search engines help people find your show when they Google around. “Catholic History” is a pretty darn useful phrase to have built into this show’s official name, probably more helpful than Popeular, so it’s happening. Of course, Popeular still narrows things down straight to the point as long as folks spell it right, plus I like the pun, so the short version is staying as is: this is Popeular History. But it’s also Popeular History: A Catholic History of the World, at least if a search engine is asking.

And no, I’m not going to run wild with things and call this Popeular History: A Catholic History of the World: Popes Pope Papal Cardinals Cardinal Church Bishops Bishop Conclave Suburbicarian Pizzaballa. Probably. I’m definitely probably not going to do that.

What I AM definitely going to do is make up for an admittedly fairly lame release today with something more substantial tomorrow. What exactly it will be depends on what editing I can get done around my day job and family stuff and two more collaborations that are also all carrying on tomorrow. And if it tomorrow’s stuff does end up being conclave connected, I hope you can forgive me getting ahead a bit. Oh, that reminds me, let’s pray for Pope Francis’ repose.

In nomine Patri, et Filii, et Spiritui Sancti, amen.
