Colin Cowherd is joined by Nick Wright, they start things off by giving their pope power rankings after Robert Francis Prevost became the first ever American pope as Pope Leo XIV. Colin calls out Nick for looking like the Shroud of Turin, and they highlight their doppelgängers.

  1. As a 35 year old Pastor with a Master of Divinity degree who is also a massive sports fan, I gotta say this is one of the best conversations I’ve heard all year.

    I concur with Colin about religion making a comeback, but not in the revival/Billy Graham crusade type of way. It’s much more in the “I want something that pre-dates me that I can participate in that is tangible even if I’m not sure about it” type of way. It’s very interesting.

  2. Anybody find it a bit suspicious that the previous Pope died right after meeting the VP of America and a couple weeks later the first American Pope is elected?

  3. Soooooooo we we are just going to ignore the fact, and truth that every Pope and the Vatican is a deep circle of pedophiles and all need locked up or are we just going to keep ignoring it and thinking thats just made up internet shit….people who are too afraid to know the truth are too afraid to go down the rabbit hole. Follow the rabbit and you won’t ever talk about Popes EVER again.

    Save the Children Colin. Stop talking about Popes and the Vatican in good light, its disgusting and shows you both are uneducated on the topic

  4. Colin, you made a good point about the uncertainty of AI. The new Pope chose the name Leo because Leo XIII was a pope who wrote a lot and made many declarations about society and economics during the Industrial Revolution and the spread of ideas of capitalism, democracy, and socialism across the world and how the Church ought to play a role and Leo XIV will likely have much to say about the modern Industrial Age and the uncertainty. Come home, Nick!

  5. Honestly the best conversation the two of you have ever had… nick didn't need to compliment colin 47 times as he was passionate about the stories he was telling.

  6. As a Catholic I think it is a blessing that this Conclave attracted a lot of news media who might not necessarily share the same beliefs, however covered this event with great interest. Thanks also Nick and Colin for sharing your experiences
