America magazine’s editors are on the ground in Rome covering the conclave to elect the next pope. As part of the coverage, the team is producing a new podcast episode every day and releasing it on “Inside the Vatican” and “Jesuitical.”
In today’s episode, the team discusses:
- The funeral of Pope Francis
- The cardinal’s decision to start the conclave on May 7
- The College of Cardinals by the numbers
- How the conclave is (and isn’t) a referendum on Pope Francis’ pontificate
This episode is hosted by Sebastian Gomes, America’s executive editor of audio and video, and features commentary from “Inside the Vatican” co-hosts Colleen Dulle and Gerard O’Connell, “Jesuitical” hosts Zac Davis and Ashley McKinless, editor in chief Sam Sawyer, S.J., editor at large James Martin, S.J., and senior editor J.D. Long García.
