Pope Francis definitely showed us that the Catholic Church is not afraid to talk politics --- and even call out specific politicians and policies. Last week, Pope Leo XIV became the first American pope in history. Progressives and conservatives are already making predictions. Is this a likely return to tradition? Will the Catholic Church get harder on social and cultural issues? Or will Leo maintain the relatively welcoming and tolerant atmosphere fostered by his predecessor?
In this episode, we speak with Tania and Jeff: both raised Catholic, one still practicing. How are they feeling about the appointment? How politically important is this to them and their families? And what do they feel is the proper role of religion in politics and public policy?
