Hey everybody, welcome to Behind the Bastards, and I know what you're all saying.

Congratulations, Robert, on finally being appointed the new Pope of the Catholic Church, Pontifax Maximus.

I was as surprised as anybody.

I wake up in the morning.

I see a phone notification that says,

you know, Vatican Conclave appoints New Pope Robert. And then the rest of the title got cut off.

But I understood what the rest of it was, obviously. I've been celebrating the last couple of

days. Have not really checked in online. But am now going to check in with my guests for

this day, Sophie Lichterman, well, not my guest, but my co-host and producer, and our guest for today,

Blake Wexler, do either of you have a boon to ask now that I am the literal mouth of God?

So I got an email saying I was Pontiff Wex, and I don't know if that was a typo or what

happened.

Yes.

No, that's a new position I've created specifically for you.

Thank you.

Yes, you are responsible solely for the spiritual guidance of all Blakes and all Wexlers.

Oh, boy. It's a fairly large responsibility.

Yeah.

Well, there's not a lot of Catholic wexlers.

Well, then you got a lot of work ahead of you, don't you, my friend?

Yeah, I do.
