Folks, we have ourselves a CONCLAVE! In this episode Max indulges in his weird fascination with politics behind the Throne of St Peter while Chris and Misty enjoy his surprising lack of references to HBO's The Young Pope. We first discuss the current standing of the conclave and how Americans have decided to once again make it all about them. We then follow up with Max's failures of discipline as the crew scratch the surface of American Trad Caths and contemplate the complicated feelings of such a gold mine of future content at the expense of any sense of moral clarity or spirituality in our dying Empire
