What kind of pope does the Church need today? In this episode, Greg argues against the modern expectation of a charismatic, media-savvy “influencer” pope, reflecting on how John Paul II’s global brand set a new standard that shaped perceptions of Benedict XVI and Francis. Instead, Greg calls for a quiet, faithful steward who guards the truth, cleans up scandals, and focuses on the Church’s core mission. A counterintuitive take for our media-driven age, this episode challenges listeners to rethink what makes a pope effective. Join us for a thoughtful exploration of the papacy’s role in the 21st century.
