About this listen

 As Pope Leo XIV prepares for his first public Angelus blessing, we explore the legacy behind his chosen name. From Leo the Great to Leo the Thirteenth, what does “Leo” signal about his vision for the papacy? We unpack the theological weight and symbolic power of one of the Church’s oldest names—and what it might reveal about this quiet, humble American pope.

Plus: fresh insight from his brother, who says, “He won’t stay silent for long.”
