Weekly Catholic conversations about the news, with JD Flynn and Ed Condon.

In this feature-length double episode, they talk about the independent report on the Archdiocese of Munich, and what it means for the legacy of Pope Benedict XVI. Then they go over the whole Knights of Malta thing, because seriously, it matters.
