This episode of The Pinto Podcast dives into the shock of Pope Leo XIV, the first American pope! Hailing from Dalton, Illinois, Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost—a White Sox-loving, multilingual missionary—descends upon the Vatican. We slightly unpack a brief history of popes, the Cubs’ Twitter flub, and Nancy’s Catholic hot takes, while riffing on Church debt, female popes, and our own St. Peter’s Square memories. Expect laughs, papal trivia, and a dash of divine chaos!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
