In this gripping edition of The Conclave Crew: Vatican Edition, recorded in Rome, Raymond Arroyo is joined by Father Gerald Murray and Robert Royal to explore the burning question facing the Catholic world: who will be the next pope?
With cardinals already sizing up the field, this episode offers exclusive insights from inside the Eternal City. The crew breaks down the frontrunners—from continuity candidates like Cardinal Pietro Parolin to surprise dark horses like Pierbattista Pizzaballa of Jerusalem.

Are voters seeking another progressive, a return to tradition, or a global figure who can unify a fractured church? The conversation is candid and, at times, blunt. From theological divides to financial scandals and even whispers of health issues, no angle is left unexplored.

Whether you're curious about the impact of Pope Francis' legacy or intrigued by what qualities are needed in the next Bishop of Rome, this episode delivers a thoughtful, deeply informed view into the conclave process—and what’s at stake for the future of the Church.
