Chapter 1: What happened to Pope Francis?
And so today we're going to be going through the history of the conclave, where it came from, why it's done in the very strange, ritualistic, and secretive order that it is. Where all the different cardinals are from, the prospective popes.
Chapter 2: What is the conclave process?
We're going to go through their backgrounds, their political histories, what they believe, who the liberal ones are, who the conservative ones are, who likes who, and who is the most likely person to actually get elected as pope. And finally, we're going to go through everything you need to know. A to Z. What does it take to actually become the Pope?
Welcome to God.

Exclusive baby diva. I was wearing my good monster truck shirt, but they said that didn't fit the aesthetic.
Yeah, by they, you mean Jaime wearing a sleeveless.
He's wearing a sleeveless New York Racquet Club shirt. Yeah. So cool.
He's like, dude, your monster truck shirt is not going to cut it. Yeah, dude, we're talking about the Pope. You can't wear a monster truck shirt. Of course. And then, of course, thank you to Gabe and Thomas for making the cams work and Samir for welcoming us into his beautiful home. Thank you very much. The Pope is dead. Breaking news. I don't know if this is how you wanted to find out, but he is.
That would suck if they just found out. Yeah, dude. What? Papa Francisco, he's been put on a t-shirt, man, so pour one out for the Argentinian legend. He's gone. And you know what happens when the Pope dies? Conclave. They wait three days to see if he emerges from his sleep.

Chapter 3: Who can be elected as the Pope?
They see if he looks at his shadow, and if he does, then it's going to be winter.
He died the day after Easter.
That's true.
So Jesus came back, and then he was like, all right, that's good enough for me.
Yeah, be like, yeah, we good. Peace. Yeah, I did my job. But Pope Francis is dead. My mom is... Is she devastated? I asked my mom, I said, is she devastated? Do you know what kind of Catholic my mom is?
A more conservative one who's not a big fan of the moderate papacy of... Pope Francis?
Pope Francis was like, I think dogs can go to heaven. And my mom was like, this guy's a heretic. Did he say, I think dogs can go to heaven? Like a little girl asked Pope Francis, like, Mr. Francis, I'm five years old and my little doggy died. Is he going to go to heaven? And then he was like, maybe. Yeah, well, that's the only answer. My mom was like, this guy has no spine. He's spineless.
He's just lying. You have to tell a child that their dog definitely is not going to heaven. So I asked my mom, I was like, do you think Pope Francis is in heaven? And she said, no. She said, that's forgotten.

Chapter 4: Who are the candidates for the next Pope?
Chapter 5: What are Cardinal Pietro Parolin's views?
Yeah, of course. That's the same answer to, did dogs go to heaven?
I was like, it's a high chance that he's the Pope.
It's a pretty good, if there is one.
And she goes, I can't say that. Who knows? Who knows where he is? All I know is that J.D. Vance killed him.
He sneezed on him.
Yeah.
which like i was saying i don't think it's hard to kill the pope like it seems like the easiest thing to right yeah what's the assassination attempt just like like trip him an air horn just an air horn at any moment just turns to dust my mom was like my mom literally she was like i don't know man the pope died after he was calling for like a ceasefire after he met with jd vance like you think it was an inside thing
I was like, no. They got him. I was like, Mom, he's 150 years old. Dude, Mossad got the Pope. Yeah, I think he just swallowed a grape or something. Yeah, exactly.

Chapter 6: What about Cardinal Willem Eijk's stance?
A grain of rice went down the wrong tube. But look, now they got to make a new Pope. They got to make one.
yeah you have to make the pope forge it in the fires of mount doom that's what the smoke is no now it's time for conclave all right and the conclave this is the process of electing a pope so today i'm going to go through the entire process of how they elect the pope the history of the conclave and who some of the contestants are in this year's bachelor the pope number one
Come on down to the stage.
They should do it as a game show. They should do it like the dating game where you can't see the popes. And they're behind a little curtain. You can just see their little slippers. You can just see their little slippers. Their hats sticking out.
Their hats just stick out over the curtain. I think that'd be sick as hell. That'd be cute as hell. But the way that the conclave's been working... It's actually a fairly recent thing. For the first thousand years of the church's history, from basically like zero, from the time that Christ died, like 33, all the way up to like 1,000. Yeah. It was kind of like the Wild West.
They were picking popes all sorts of wild ways. And the bishops were then chosen. They would pick another person, just like the pope that died would elect someone, da-da-da. But then, in 1059, Pope Nicholas II restricted the right to elect the pope to the College of Cardinals.
the vatican city cardinals go vatican city cardinals and this was a group composed of cardinal bishops priests and deacons and then it was refined again in 1179 when the third lateran council made a two-third majority system and now the modern conclave where the cardinals are locked in seclusion until a decision is reached was introduced in 1274 wow by pope greg that's early for democracy
1274, they said. I mean, the Romans had some type of democracy. Yeah, but I mean, still. For Pope, democracy was pretty good. And they've been doing it the same way since 1274. Lockdown. Pope Greg the X. Pope Greg. Yeah, dude. And this was... Pope Greg. Popey G.
yeah my name is greg i'm the pope it's not a pope name at all but uh they've done some additional reforms to like ensure secrecy and prevent influence and streamline the voting process and all that stuff right did you see conclave i did see conclave apparently they do an extremely accurate job it's a wonderful film the internal uh the internal organs the internal organs both yes exactly yeah
