This episode contains some discussion around sexual abuse in the second half of the episode, which may not be appropriate for all.


As head of state of The Vatican City, Pope Francis is also a monarch.


He is one of a handful of elected monarchs in the world, which also include Cambodia, Malayisa and United Arab Emirates.


In this episode we look at the the Pope's role as a monarch, as well as leader of the Catholic church, and discuss the influence he has with other world leaders.


We look at how a Pope is elected in a conclave and explore the changes he's brought to the church.


This episode was recorded while Pope Francis is in hospital.
