About this episode
In centuries past, conclave meant cardinals were literally locked away until a new pope had been elected. Today, it's the world that's locked out, as people await the unmistakable white smoke. In this episode, we lift the veil on the politics, power and prayers involved in electing a new pope. Why are phones confiscated? Who really pulls the strings? And who is the cardinal who has been banned from Conclave?
Host: Kevin Doyle, Guests: Sarah MacDonald and Michael Kelly
