As the world watches and waits for the white smoke, The Conclave Crew gathers inside Rome to tackle your most pressing questions about the secretive and sacred process of electing a new pope. 

Host Raymond Arroyo is joined by Father Gerald Murray and Robert Royal as they take listeners deep inside the Sistine Chapel’s voting rituals — from cardinals disguising handwriting to why over-80s can’t vote. With humor, candor, and deep reverence, the panel explores everything from papal fashion and conclave leaks to the serious spiritual and cultural implications of this global moment.

What happens if a cardinal refuses the papacy? Could an American or African cardinal be elected? And what should Catholics do if they believe a bad pope is elected? 

All this and more is answered — candidly and clearly — in this lively, insightful, and timely Vatican edition of The Conclave Crew.
