Hey Chicos! 

Francisco and I just dropped a brand-new episode of Spanish Loops — and trust me, it’s really interesting.

We’re diving into the huge moment the world just witnessed: the election of Pope Leo XIV, the brand-new leader of the Catholic Church and head of the Vatican City State.

What’s fascinating? He’s Pope number 267 in history and only the third non-European pope ever elected. 

That alone says a lot! Chosen after a relatively quick conclave, he seems to be following in the footsteps of the late Pope Francis — but of course, only time will tell how his papacy unfolds.

In this episode, Fran and I walk you through his incredible journey — from his roots and ancestry to his years as a missionary, and the roles he’s held within his congregation. We also touch on how people back in his home country are reacting to his election.

It’s a true intro to the man who now has the eyes of the world watching his every move. Whether you're religious, curious, or just into global affairs, this is a must-listen.

Let’s loop into history together.
