00:00:00.880 --> 00:00:06.360
<v Speaker 1>It's Night Side with Dan Ray on WBZ Constance Radio.

2
00:00:06.799 --> 00:00:11.119
<v Speaker 2>The big story today, the only really big story today

3
00:00:11.759 --> 00:00:17.199
<v Speaker 2>is the election of an American as the two hundred

4
00:00:17.239 --> 00:00:21.359
<v Speaker 2>and sixty seventh Pope of the Roman Catholic Church, Pope

5
00:00:21.480 --> 00:00:24.120
<v Speaker 2>Leo the fourteenth.

6
00:00:24.839 --> 00:00:25.480
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

7
00:00:25.600 --> 00:00:28.640
<v Speaker 2>Anyone who predicted it. Maybe someone can tell me they

8
00:00:28.719 --> 00:00:31.120
<v Speaker 2>predicted it, But no one who I know who predicted it.

9
00:00:31.559 --> 00:00:35.520
<v Speaker 2>I never thought there ever would be an American elected pope.

10
00:00:35.679 --> 00:00:38.560
<v Speaker 2>Now I realized that this is a different sort of American,

11
00:00:38.640 --> 00:00:42.359
<v Speaker 2>someone who was born here, educated here, and has spent

12
00:00:42.799 --> 00:00:47.039
<v Speaker 2>much of his time as a priest and as a

13
00:00:47.079 --> 00:00:50.560
<v Speaker 2>bishop in Peru and in Rome. But he is still

14
00:00:50.759 --> 00:00:54.960
<v Speaker 2>an American. I was watching ABC News tonight, ABC World

15
00:00:55.000 --> 00:00:58.840
<v Speaker 2>News tonight and they had he has two brothers who

16
00:00:58.840 --> 00:01:01.359
<v Speaker 2>were I think he's the youngest the family. Actually, one

17
00:01:01.399 --> 00:01:05.000
<v Speaker 2>lives in Florida, one lives in Chicago. Your reaction, and again,

18
00:01:05.359 --> 00:01:08.879
<v Speaker 2>your reaction may very well be predicated by who you

19
00:01:08.959 --> 00:01:13.840
<v Speaker 2>are and your experience. We had, Oh, we had a

20
00:01:13.920 --> 00:01:16.560
<v Speaker 2>tough call from Peggy and West Roxford. Her family had

21
00:01:16.560 --> 00:01:22.280
<v Speaker 2>suffered so much. Harvey Silverglay talked last hour about how

22
00:01:22.319 --> 00:01:27.799
<v Speaker 2>this is a generational switch for the Catholic Church generational

23
00:01:27.799 --> 00:01:31.200
<v Speaker 2>and a young pope who is a disciple of Pope Francis,

24
00:01:31.239 --> 00:01:34.079
<v Speaker 2>who has appointed eighty percent of the cardinals who elected

25
00:01:34.560 --> 00:01:37.760
<v Speaker 2>this young pope. And again young pope sixty nine years

26
00:01:37.799 --> 00:01:40.640
<v Speaker 2>of age. It's all relative, okay, it's all relative. If

27
00:01:40.640 --> 00:01:43.159
<v Speaker 2>you're sixty nine these days, you're too old to be

28
00:01:43.159 --> 00:01:45.599
<v Speaker 2>a baseball manager, but you're young and you're considered young

29
00:01:45.599 --> 00:01:46.159
<v Speaker 2>as a pope.

30
00:01:46.719 --> 00:01:47.159
<v Speaker 3>Whatever.

31
00:01:49.560 --> 00:01:51.640
<v Speaker 2>So I just want to hear from you on this one.

32
00:01:51.680 --> 00:01:53.840
<v Speaker 2>We have full lines. We're going to get to everybody

33
00:01:53.879 --> 00:01:54.840
<v Speaker 2>as quickly as we can.

34
00:01:55.040 --> 00:01:56.200
<v Speaker 3>Next up, Joe was in Chelms.

35
00:01:56.239 --> 00:01:57.879
<v Speaker 2>For Joe, We're going to just start it right off

36
00:01:57.879 --> 00:02:00.799
<v Speaker 2>and talk to as many folks as possible. Your reaction

37
00:02:00.920 --> 00:02:02.120
<v Speaker 2>to this historic.

38
00:02:01.840 --> 00:02:07.519
<v Speaker 4>Day, Yeah, hey Dan, Hawaiia, like your question was, was

39
00:02:07.560 --> 00:02:10.439
<v Speaker 4>just an important day for you, and see it was

40
00:02:11.240 --> 00:02:14.159
<v Speaker 4>very first of all, hope you're doing well. We've met

41
00:02:14.159 --> 00:02:18.199
<v Speaker 4>each other before and BC is actually in Hawaii right now.

42
00:02:18.240 --> 00:02:20.639
<v Speaker 4>He just got there. But on the top of your hand.

43
00:02:22.319 --> 00:02:26.240
<v Speaker 3>Where yeah, where I'm sorry, your son is? Where?

44
00:02:27.240 --> 00:02:27.319
<v Speaker 4>No?

45
00:02:27.520 --> 00:02:27.800
<v Speaker 5>BC?

46
00:02:28.560 --> 00:02:32.599
<v Speaker 4>BC from North Chalunce for our friend. Oh yeah, why

47
00:02:33.039 --> 00:02:34.439
<v Speaker 4>visit his son of the nave?

48
00:02:34.599 --> 00:02:38.759
<v Speaker 2>So oh okay, Okay, I know who you're talking about

49
00:02:38.800 --> 00:02:42.240
<v Speaker 2>BC now, like, yeah, probably most of the time he's

50
00:02:42.240 --> 00:02:46.039
<v Speaker 2>in Erie, Pennsylvania, So I wasn't you.

51
00:02:47.439 --> 00:02:50.319
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, So this meant a lot to me. And I'll

52
00:02:50.319 --> 00:02:52.360
<v Speaker 4>tell you I was home today one of the get

53
00:02:52.400 --> 00:02:55.120
<v Speaker 4>stuff done around the house. I saw the news that

54
00:02:55.400 --> 00:02:58.479
<v Speaker 4>you know, President Trump had the big announcement on the

55
00:02:58.520 --> 00:03:01.240
<v Speaker 4>trade deal, so I had the TV on and then

56
00:03:01.759 --> 00:03:06.039
<v Speaker 4>the news also said they were anticipating maybe an announcement.

57
00:03:06.680 --> 00:03:08.840
<v Speaker 4>And I'll tell you what I liked. While you say

58
00:03:08.919 --> 00:03:11.840
<v Speaker 4>you're an imperfect Catholic, I think we all are right.

59
00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:15.120
<v Speaker 4>But I've been going to church more lately and been

60
00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:18.159
<v Speaker 4>finding peace with that. But I'll tell you I had

61
00:03:18.240 --> 00:03:24.080
<v Speaker 4>chilled seeing the smoke. And you had mentioned Cardinal Dolan earlier,

62
00:03:24.280 --> 00:03:28.479
<v Speaker 4>and he's actually a family friend and my uncle, my

63
00:03:28.719 --> 00:03:33.919
<v Speaker 4>namesake uncle taught him years ago and he's his mentor

64
00:03:35.159 --> 00:03:38.879
<v Speaker 4>since past. Yes, he's now since path And the last

65
00:03:38.879 --> 00:03:41.800
<v Speaker 4>time I actually saw Cardinal Dolan, he came up from

66
00:03:41.879 --> 00:03:45.039
<v Speaker 4>New York to be at the funeral, being the type

67
00:03:45.080 --> 00:03:49.400
<v Speaker 4>of good guy that he is and family friend. Yeah,

68
00:03:49.439 --> 00:03:53.479
<v Speaker 4>I met him years ago at the American College, visiting

69
00:03:53.520 --> 00:03:58.120
<v Speaker 4>my uncle in Rome. And he actually ran the American

70
00:03:58.159 --> 00:04:01.639
<v Speaker 4>College and my uncle was teaching with him back where

71
00:04:01.680 --> 00:04:04.159
<v Speaker 4>they you know, in Rome when they first met.

72
00:04:04.400 --> 00:04:06.199
<v Speaker 3>Was your uncle a Catholic priest? Was your uncle a

73
00:04:06.199 --> 00:04:06.759
<v Speaker 3>Catholic privis?

74
00:04:06.840 --> 00:04:09.919
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, out of a small order based out of Walthame.

75
00:04:09.960 --> 00:04:13.479
<v Speaker 4>And that's the Sigma Teeing priest that is now not

76
00:04:13.759 --> 00:04:17.399
<v Speaker 4>the Fisal Center is now shut down. It's new high school.

77
00:04:17.439 --> 00:04:18.800
<v Speaker 4>There not another story.

78
00:04:19.160 --> 00:04:19.600
<v Speaker 6>Another thing.

79
00:04:19.879 --> 00:04:22.240
<v Speaker 2>Well, I'm a big fan of Cardinal Dolan. I think

80
00:04:22.279 --> 00:04:25.639
<v Speaker 2>that he represents what is best about the Catholic Church.

81
00:04:25.680 --> 00:04:28.279
<v Speaker 2>He has a great ability to communicate. If you ever

82
00:04:28.360 --> 00:04:30.800
<v Speaker 2>talked to him, tell him. I'd love to have him

83
00:04:30.879 --> 00:04:33.839
<v Speaker 2>join us some night on the show, just to just

84
00:04:33.879 --> 00:04:38.040
<v Speaker 2>to let people listen to him. I mean, he talks theology,

85
00:04:38.120 --> 00:04:41.399
<v Speaker 2>but he doesn't talk as a theologian. He talks about

86
00:04:41.399 --> 00:04:44.639
<v Speaker 2>it as somebody would talk from one human being to another.

87
00:04:44.720 --> 00:04:47.399
<v Speaker 2>And that's a special gift in my opinion. And I

88
00:04:47.399 --> 00:04:49.360
<v Speaker 2>hope you can identify with what I'm saying.

89
00:04:50.279 --> 00:04:53.079
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I definitely do. I follow him on Instagram and

90
00:04:53.120 --> 00:04:56.480
<v Speaker 4>it really is. He just teaches, what if there's a

91
00:04:56.639 --> 00:05:00.920
<v Speaker 4>special Day of the Saints or what ever happened, and

92
00:05:00.959 --> 00:05:04.959
<v Speaker 4>he's got he's pretty well schooled in it's a nice

93
00:05:05.480 --> 00:05:06.360
<v Speaker 4>little bit of uh.

94
00:05:07.680 --> 00:05:09.360
<v Speaker 3>He's primarily a communicator.

95
00:05:09.439 --> 00:05:13.000
<v Speaker 2>I think about you know, Cardinal Sean, who we had here,

96
00:05:13.040 --> 00:05:15.959
<v Speaker 2>who seemed to be terrified of the media, just terrified.

97
00:05:16.040 --> 00:05:20.759
<v Speaker 2>I remember one time I was at a it was

98
00:05:20.800 --> 00:05:23.279
<v Speaker 2>an auction. It was a fundraiser for the Merry and

99
00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:26.360
<v Speaker 2>Brett food pantry over in Dorchester, and Cardinal law was

100
00:05:26.399 --> 00:05:29.879
<v Speaker 2>there up on the stage and I was the auctioneer,

101
00:05:30.439 --> 00:05:33.759
<v Speaker 2>and so I had a cut off Bill Belichick autographed

102
00:05:33.800 --> 00:05:37.480
<v Speaker 2>sweatshirt that someone had donated through Belichick, and we're going

103
00:05:37.519 --> 00:05:39.240
<v Speaker 2>to raise some money. I mean, we're talking about a

104
00:05:39.240 --> 00:05:42.680
<v Speaker 2>couple of thousand dollars. And so I looked over and

105
00:05:42.720 --> 00:05:44.639
<v Speaker 2>I realized that card was sitting there. He didn't look

106
00:05:44.639 --> 00:05:47.160
<v Speaker 2>particularly comfortable, but I said, cardoal came here for a second,

107
00:05:47.240 --> 00:05:50.480
<v Speaker 2>I need someone to model this. He wouldn't put it on,

108
00:05:50.759 --> 00:05:52.800
<v Speaker 2>but I had him sort of hold it up behind me,

109
00:05:53.120 --> 00:05:54.959
<v Speaker 2>and I think we got a couple of grand for it.

110
00:05:55.079 --> 00:05:58.920
<v Speaker 2>So that was the most I think that's the most

111
00:05:58.959 --> 00:06:01.199
<v Speaker 2>fun he's had in a while, in my opinion.

112
00:06:02.079 --> 00:06:05.519
<v Speaker 4>So for a split second dance today, I went so

113
00:06:05.680 --> 00:06:08.199
<v Speaker 4>when I figured it was gonna be a while before

114
00:06:08.240 --> 00:06:11.560
<v Speaker 4>the pulpe came out to Falcony and be up point.

115
00:06:12.079 --> 00:06:14.560
<v Speaker 4>Who would have ever thought? Although, because I know Cardinal

116
00:06:14.600 --> 00:06:17.639
<v Speaker 4>Dolan and I know he's well respected, bot of me

117
00:06:17.800 --> 00:06:20.399
<v Speaker 4>was like, oh wow, I go back out dropping some

118
00:06:20.439 --> 00:06:23.399
<v Speaker 4>grass seed in the backyard. I come back in and

119
00:06:23.480 --> 00:06:27.920
<v Speaker 4>I see American pope. I got goosebumps even thinking about it.

120
00:06:27.959 --> 00:06:29.920
<v Speaker 4>I thought I was gonna know the pope.

121
00:06:30.040 --> 00:06:30.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

122
00:06:30.279 --> 00:06:31.959
<v Speaker 2>Well, I'll tell you last night I was talking with

123
00:06:32.040 --> 00:06:34.600
<v Speaker 2>Tom Groom and I said that I'd love them to

124
00:06:34.600 --> 00:06:37.519
<v Speaker 2>see to uh, you know, pick an American pope.

125
00:06:37.759 --> 00:06:40.399
<v Speaker 3>My favorite was was Cardinal Dowan.

126
00:06:40.920 --> 00:06:41.040
<v Speaker 7>Uh.

127
00:06:41.199 --> 00:06:44.439
<v Speaker 2>And I did not know even of whom Cardinal pre

128
00:06:44.560 --> 00:06:48.759
<v Speaker 2>vote was or is and now he's Leo the fourteenth.

129
00:06:48.920 --> 00:06:52.079
<v Speaker 2>So uh But I said, but I don't think they'll

130
00:06:52.079 --> 00:06:53.680
<v Speaker 2>have a pick an American pope. So I was wrong

131
00:06:53.720 --> 00:06:57.319
<v Speaker 2>on two points. One I did it, and they didn't

132
00:06:57.319 --> 00:07:01.120
<v Speaker 2>pick Cardinal Dolan Joe years.

133
00:07:01.319 --> 00:07:01.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

134
00:07:01.720 --> 00:07:03.720
<v Speaker 4>One last thing is so the odd thing you know,

135
00:07:03.839 --> 00:07:07.959
<v Speaker 4>it's not Cardinal Dolan family friend. I did look him

136
00:07:08.079 --> 00:07:12.399
<v Speaker 4>up though, in the pope Leo. You know Robert Francis

137
00:07:12.480 --> 00:07:16.120
<v Speaker 4>free Will. He did go to the angelicam College, So

138
00:07:16.279 --> 00:07:20.519
<v Speaker 4>I would I'm sure my now past uncle, my namesake,

139
00:07:21.279 --> 00:07:24.560
<v Speaker 4>I'm sure he knew him and probably even taught him.

140
00:07:24.959 --> 00:07:27.480
<v Speaker 3>Well, I'll tell you what if I were you, what

141
00:07:27.639 --> 00:07:28.160
<v Speaker 3>I would do.

142
00:07:28.639 --> 00:07:30.560
<v Speaker 2>If I were you, I would send him a nice

143
00:07:30.600 --> 00:07:34.199
<v Speaker 2>congratulatory note and mention your uncle, and I would be

144
00:07:34.240 --> 00:07:36.439
<v Speaker 2>stunned if you didn't get a personal letter back.

145
00:07:37.839 --> 00:07:39.360
<v Speaker 6>I will, and I'll keep you posted.

146
00:07:39.560 --> 00:07:42.839
<v Speaker 2>Please keep me posted, because I think that those sorts

147
00:07:42.839 --> 00:07:47.000
<v Speaker 2>of letters, when the congratulations and I don't know if

148
00:07:47.000 --> 00:07:51.399
<v Speaker 2>you ever you know we were instructed by my uncle

149
00:07:51.639 --> 00:07:54.040
<v Speaker 2>and put his name down there at the Angelica College,

150
00:07:54.800 --> 00:07:57.399
<v Speaker 2>I think that's the sort of note that they weed

151
00:07:57.399 --> 00:07:59.560
<v Speaker 2>that stuff out, you know, the note that says, oh,

152
00:07:59.560 --> 00:08:02.959

<v Speaker 6>She was there.

170
00:08:40.279 --> 00:08:42.240

<v Speaker 6>I know he was the head of the brunch.

173
00:08:45.919 --> 00:08:48.240
<v Speaker 2>I think they came to see her, not to see me.

00:08:59.159 --> 00:09:04.039
<v Speaker 2>is six one seven. Your reaction to the appearance today

177
00:09:04.360 --> 00:09:07.159
<v Speaker 2>the election of an American is pope, which I never

178
00:09:07.200 --> 00:09:09.279
<v Speaker 2>thought would happen. Now, if you're going to tell me

179
00:09:09.320 --> 00:09:11.320
<v Speaker 2>that you knew it was in the in the cards,

180
00:09:11.440 --> 00:09:13.480
<v Speaker 2>that's okay. I'm not gonna believe you, but you can

181
00:09:13.519 --> 00:09:15.279
<v Speaker 2>tell me that back on nights out after this.

182
00:09:17.399 --> 00:09:22.039
<v Speaker 1>It's Night Side with Dan Ray on Boston's news Radio.

183
00:09:22.320 --> 00:09:24.360
<v Speaker 2>Let's keep rolling here, trying to get as many people

184
00:09:24.360 --> 00:09:27.240
<v Speaker 2>in as quickly as possible. Look at all sorts of reactions.

185
00:09:27.320 --> 00:09:30.000
<v Speaker 2>Terry down to the Cape, Terry on Cape Cod, welcome back.

186
00:09:30.000 --> 00:09:30.720
<v Speaker 3>How are you tonight?

187
00:09:31.720 --> 00:09:35.440
<v Speaker 7>I dare nice to talk to you. Congratulations on your

188
00:09:35.519 --> 00:09:39.200
<v Speaker 7>little colleague. By the way, you'll keep you with a

189
00:09:39.320 --> 00:09:41.320
<v Speaker 7>smile and aspling in your step.

190
00:09:41.759 --> 00:09:44.679
<v Speaker 2>Caroline, Happy grand baby, Caroline.

191
00:09:45.039 --> 00:09:49.440
<v Speaker 7>Yes, I thank you for your kind words. A National

192
00:09:49.559 --> 00:09:51.799
<v Speaker 7>Nurses Day that was really great.

193
00:09:52.240 --> 00:09:52.600
<v Speaker 5>Thank you.

194
00:09:53.679 --> 00:09:57.600
<v Speaker 2>A good friend reminded me of that day, but I

195
00:09:57.600 --> 00:09:58.960
<v Speaker 2>wouldn't have forgotten it anyway.

196
00:09:59.000 --> 00:10:00.440
<v Speaker 3>Go ahead, Terry.

197
00:10:01.080 --> 00:10:08.159
<v Speaker 7>I am pleasantly surprised of a new Catholic first time pope.

198
00:10:08.799 --> 00:10:13.679
<v Speaker 7>May God bless his ministry from the get go. It'll

199
00:10:13.720 --> 00:10:20.000
<v Speaker 7>be interesting to see if this revitalizes the Catholic Church

200
00:10:20.039 --> 00:10:26.720
<v Speaker 7>in America. I think that it has potential and in

201
00:10:26.759 --> 00:10:30.519
<v Speaker 7>a real good way. I have real good feelings about it.

202
00:10:31.519 --> 00:10:35.240
<v Speaker 7>I think they have a lot of healing and a

203
00:10:35.320 --> 00:10:39.159
<v Speaker 7>lot of things to change. And I do believe that

204
00:10:40.519 --> 00:10:46.960
<v Speaker 7>post Francis Pitt his success or before and kind of

205
00:10:47.120 --> 00:10:57.679
<v Speaker 7>gave him an internship in Rome. Well my minutia, and

206
00:10:57.720 --> 00:11:03.360
<v Speaker 7>that's all I have of knowledge here. Instead, Pope Princess

207
00:11:03.480 --> 00:11:09.279
<v Speaker 7>choose him to actually interview new cardinals that were up

208
00:11:09.440 --> 00:11:14.360
<v Speaker 7>for appointment by the Pope. So he got to meet

209
00:11:14.639 --> 00:11:18.799
<v Speaker 7>all of these people, interviewed them, and he kind of

210
00:11:18.840 --> 00:11:21.799
<v Speaker 7>groomed them.

211
00:11:22.240 --> 00:11:30.279
<v Speaker 2>Grooming, of course, is a bad word these days.

212
00:11:31.080 --> 00:11:32.200
<v Speaker 7>Tom Yeah.

213
00:11:32.600 --> 00:11:35.679
<v Speaker 2>I think what you were basically saying is he probably

214
00:11:36.320 --> 00:11:39.879
<v Speaker 2>uh introduced himself in a nice way to a lot

215
00:11:39.919 --> 00:11:41.759
<v Speaker 2>of the people who turned out to be the electors.

216
00:11:41.799 --> 00:11:42.440
<v Speaker 3>Ironically.

217
00:11:42.519 --> 00:11:48.559
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, absolutely, But I think that the Pope trusted his

218
00:11:50.679 --> 00:11:59.440
<v Speaker 7>abilities to have him be his successor and delemann internship

219
00:11:59.600 --> 00:12:02.720
<v Speaker 7>in it. Well, he was still able to do it.

220
00:12:03.159 --> 00:12:03.799
<v Speaker 3>I think you're right.

221
00:12:04.320 --> 00:12:05.080
<v Speaker 8>It's brilliant.

222
00:12:05.679 --> 00:12:06.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

223
00:12:06.039 --> 00:12:10.600
<v Speaker 2>And it's interesting because although this pope, the new Pope,

224
00:12:10.639 --> 00:12:13.799
<v Speaker 2>spent a lot of time in Peru, he is still.

225
00:12:13.639 --> 00:12:15.559
<v Speaker 3>A native born American and.

226
00:12:17.039 --> 00:12:21.600
<v Speaker 2>There's always been sort of a weary relationship between the

227
00:12:21.720 --> 00:12:24.639
<v Speaker 2>Vatican and the American Catholic.

228
00:12:24.279 --> 00:12:27.240
<v Speaker 8>Church always yeah and uh.

229
00:12:27.519 --> 00:12:29.919
<v Speaker 3>And so this, uh, this is at least a truce.

230
00:12:30.399 --> 00:12:31.000
<v Speaker 3>And uh.

231
00:12:31.159 --> 00:12:32.919
<v Speaker 2>I never thought I would see an American pope in

232
00:12:32.960 --> 00:12:37.600
<v Speaker 2>my lifetime. And I suspect you we are. So let's

233
00:12:37.600 --> 00:12:39.320
<v Speaker 2>hope I agree with you.

234
00:12:39.600 --> 00:12:45.440
<v Speaker 7>I was hoping for Cornel Dolan. I seem yeah, I

235
00:12:45.519 --> 00:12:46.519
<v Speaker 7>was phenomenal.

236
00:12:46.879 --> 00:12:49.799
<v Speaker 2>The word I used for him is he's he's garrulous.

237
00:12:50.039 --> 00:12:54.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean, he's wonderful. He's so effusive and and he

238
00:12:54.039 --> 00:12:56.559
<v Speaker 2>seems to always have a smile on his face, and

239
00:12:56.600 --> 00:12:59.919
<v Speaker 2>he can he can preach but he doesn't do it.

240
00:13:00.639 --> 00:13:06.320
<v Speaker 7>To preaching children. He's been so chosen for what he does,

241
00:13:07.000 --> 00:13:10.679
<v Speaker 7>and he's so perfect. Got it really New York.

242
00:13:10.720 --> 00:13:12.799
<v Speaker 2>If he was in another city, maybe it wouldn't work.

243
00:13:12.840 --> 00:13:16.200
<v Speaker 2>But in New York it absolutely works. Terry, Thank you

244
00:13:16.240 --> 00:13:19.039
<v Speaker 2>so much. Won't be too long before we'll see one another.

<v Speaker 2>By bye. We'll keep going here. Gonna go to Bernie

251
00:13:36.159 --> 00:13:39.480
<v Speaker 5>Night Sacer right ahead, say thanks for taking my call.

252
00:13:39.639 --> 00:13:41.080
<v Speaker 3>Dan, Thank you for calling it.

253
00:13:42.320 --> 00:13:43.679
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, so real quick.

254
00:13:44.000 --> 00:13:44.159
<v Speaker 3>You know.

255
00:13:44.240 --> 00:13:47.279
<v Speaker 5>I was was Roman Catholic. I remember going up Yo

256
00:13:47.360 --> 00:13:50.039
<v Speaker 5>Leins for my alt the boy outfit my mother in

257
00:13:50.159 --> 00:13:53.519
<v Speaker 5>my eye, and my mother was just so proud, you know,

258
00:13:53.759 --> 00:13:57.639
<v Speaker 5>he was just so proud. No, And then I went

259
00:13:57.679 --> 00:14:02.159
<v Speaker 5>to a small college, top school in uh East Boston,

260
00:14:02.679 --> 00:14:08.000
<v Speaker 5>Tom Savio. It was run by Jesuits, so it was

261
00:14:08.080 --> 00:14:11.000
<v Speaker 5>run by Jesuits, so I was familiar with the discipoint

262
00:14:11.000 --> 00:14:11.879
<v Speaker 5>of the Jesuits.

263
00:14:11.919 --> 00:14:13.200
<v Speaker 6>And it gave me a.

264
00:14:13.120 --> 00:14:16.919
<v Speaker 5>Good, good foundation for my wife, you know, and that

265
00:14:17.039 --> 00:14:20.039
<v Speaker 5>always stuck with me. And I remember sitting with my

266
00:14:20.120 --> 00:14:23.039
<v Speaker 5>mother watching the folk come to Boston. She was so proud.

267
00:14:23.120 --> 00:14:26.639
<v Speaker 5>And the only thing is she died last June and

268
00:14:27.039 --> 00:14:29.320
<v Speaker 5>passed away. And I think she would have been so

269
00:14:29.480 --> 00:14:34.600
<v Speaker 5>proud of having an American vote. But the second part

270
00:14:34.639 --> 00:14:38.120
<v Speaker 5>of what I'm calling is I just believe, like like

271
00:14:39.279 --> 00:14:43.919
<v Speaker 5>he both Princess like, as a president, well pick some

272
00:14:44.000 --> 00:14:48.639
<v Speaker 5>Freme Court justices to influence his beliefs and what he

273
00:14:48.720 --> 00:14:52.399
<v Speaker 5>wants to go through. I believe that's what Both Princess did.

274
00:14:52.440 --> 00:14:56.919
<v Speaker 5>He set up to keep his because we know, we

275
00:14:57.039 --> 00:15:00.519
<v Speaker 5>know the scandal all that, and Francis acknowledge that he

276
00:15:00.639 --> 00:15:03.600
<v Speaker 5>acknowledged it. It was a terrible thing. And and he's

277
00:15:04.000 --> 00:15:08.360
<v Speaker 5>and he's trying to include all other people into the

278
00:15:08.480 --> 00:15:13.480
<v Speaker 5>church and revitalizing He's at the importance of the American Church,

279
00:15:14.440 --> 00:15:20.639
<v Speaker 5>and it is very important and Catholicism, it's influential, it's

280
00:15:20.799 --> 00:15:25.799
<v Speaker 5>very financially supportive. And although I think that he thought

281
00:15:26.120 --> 00:15:30.879
<v Speaker 5>this as being able to revitalize the Roman cap with

282
00:15:31.039 --> 00:15:32.799
<v Speaker 5>church in this country.

283
00:15:32.360 --> 00:15:33.960
<v Speaker 6>And it's a good day for our country.

284
00:15:34.000 --> 00:15:36.120
<v Speaker 5>It's a good day. Even though we, like you said,

285
00:15:36.200 --> 00:15:39.759
<v Speaker 5>he's he's a dual citizen, it's still it's still an honor.

286
00:15:40.200 --> 00:15:44.559
<v Speaker 5>He's an American and he understands the what what what

287
00:15:44.759 --> 00:15:47.759
<v Speaker 5>the church bases to go forward. And I think it's

288
00:15:47.759 --> 00:15:49.399
<v Speaker 5>a good day. That's my opinion.

289
00:15:50.360 --> 00:15:52.320
<v Speaker 3>No, I agree with you. I coul occur with everything

290
00:15:52.360 --> 00:15:52.960
<v Speaker 3>that you said.

291
00:15:53.080 --> 00:15:55.799
<v Speaker 2>And I do think that this might be the moment

292
00:15:55.840 --> 00:15:58.519
<v Speaker 2>in time which the timing is right.

293
00:15:58.639 --> 00:15:59.120
<v Speaker 3>Maybe.

294
00:15:59.360 --> 00:16:02.399
<v Speaker 2>I remember and John Paul second became pope, people said,

295
00:16:02.440 --> 00:16:05.360
<v Speaker 2>oh my god, that's the first non Italian pope in

296
00:16:05.360 --> 00:16:08.960
<v Speaker 2>in a long long time. And uh, the church had

297
00:16:08.960 --> 00:16:11.039
<v Speaker 2>now spread out and picked a non Italian. And then

298
00:16:11.080 --> 00:16:13.279
<v Speaker 2>they've followen up with Benedict who was from Germany.

299
00:16:13.879 --> 00:16:14.879
<v Speaker 3>Uh and uh.

300
00:16:15.000 --> 00:16:19.519
<v Speaker 2>And the next was the Francis who was from I

301
00:16:19.639 --> 00:16:22.320
<v Speaker 2>call it South America. People will call it Central America.

302
00:16:22.360 --> 00:16:26.200
<v Speaker 2>I still call it South America. And now from the

303
00:16:26.279 --> 00:16:29.399
<v Speaker 2>United States. I was actually thinking that we might have

304
00:16:29.480 --> 00:16:32.600
<v Speaker 2>seen the pope from Asia or Africa. Uh, and that

305
00:16:32.679 --> 00:16:35.440
<v Speaker 2>will probably be the next point. I think that the

306
00:16:35.559 --> 00:16:37.720
<v Speaker 2>church they thought about being the universal Church.

307
00:16:37.559 --> 00:16:39.159
<v Speaker 5>I think that is now trying to live up to

308
00:16:39.240 --> 00:16:43.320
<v Speaker 5>that reputation. Absolutely.

309
00:16:43.519 --> 00:16:46.320
<v Speaker 2>Thank you as always for your calls, uh and for

310
00:16:46.399 --> 00:16:48.639
<v Speaker 2>your support of this program, and thanks for joining us down.

311
00:16:48.720 --> 00:16:51.600
<v Speaker 2>It was the important point you made and there's nothing

312
00:16:51.600 --> 00:16:53.159
<v Speaker 2>I could disagree with there, that's for sure.

313
00:16:53.320 --> 00:16:56.399
<v Speaker 3>Thank you so much, you sir, have a good night.

314
00:16:56.639 --> 00:16:59.519

00:17:28.519 --> 00:17:31.519
<v Speaker 2>I would love to hear from non Catholics too, or

336
00:18:07.720 --> 00:18:11.240
<v Speaker 2>Your thoughts on the elevation the election today of Pope

337
00:18:11.279 --> 00:18:12.279
<v Speaker 2>Leo the fourteenth.

338
00:18:13.039 --> 00:18:21.480
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, Hi, Dan, Yeah, I was surprised, Charlot. It's wonderful. Yeah,

339
00:18:21.519 --> 00:18:22.400
<v Speaker 9>it's wonderful.

340
00:18:23.440 --> 00:18:26.680
<v Speaker 2>I never would have I was trying to understand the

341
00:18:26.759 --> 00:18:29.920
<v Speaker 2>name as it was being read in Latin. I was saying, yeah,

342
00:18:29.960 --> 00:18:32.160
<v Speaker 2>good luck with that, Dan, the Latin that didn't hang

343
00:18:32.200 --> 00:18:32.920
<v Speaker 2>with you after.

344
00:18:32.759 --> 00:18:35.680
<v Speaker 3>All these years. Yeah, it was like whoa.

345
00:18:35.759 --> 00:18:39.960
<v Speaker 2>And and you could tell that the anchor people didn't

346
00:18:40.039 --> 00:18:44.480
<v Speaker 2>understand that either. And wow, And when you realize in

347
00:18:44.920 --> 00:18:49.759
<v Speaker 2>a second it was it was an Americano. It was stunning,

348
00:18:49.960 --> 00:18:51.240
<v Speaker 2>just stunning, it was.

349
00:18:51.480 --> 00:18:51.880
<v Speaker 10>It was.

350
00:18:52.160 --> 00:18:55.920
<v Speaker 9>Yeah. I was watching the whole thing too. The crowds

351
00:18:56.079 --> 00:19:00.839
<v Speaker 9>were amazing, the people.

352
00:19:01.599 --> 00:19:04.920
<v Speaker 2>They came out of nowhere. I mean, yeah, but again,

353
00:19:05.000 --> 00:19:10.200
<v Speaker 2>it is Rome. Okay, I guess you know, I guess.

354
00:19:09.200 --> 00:19:13.640
<v Speaker 9>Well, And a lot of that is probably in the

355
00:19:13.839 --> 00:19:16.200
<v Speaker 9>you know, a lot of the people were in the Vatican.

356
00:19:17.039 --> 00:19:20.480
<v Speaker 9>It's what a mile you know, mile wide.

357
00:19:20.440 --> 00:19:21.160
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, something like that.

358
00:19:21.200 --> 00:19:26.359
<v Speaker 2>It's it's more listed in acreage, that's for sure.

359
00:19:25.640 --> 00:19:32.000
<v Speaker 9>Right, right. But yeah, I won't say I was disappointed,

360
00:19:32.039 --> 00:19:37.799
<v Speaker 9>but I was hoping, you know, he spoke Latin, Italian

361
00:19:38.240 --> 00:19:42.920
<v Speaker 9>and Spanish. I was hoping he'd say a little something

362
00:19:43.000 --> 00:19:43.640
<v Speaker 9>in English.

363
00:19:44.200 --> 00:19:44.400
<v Speaker 4>You know.

364
00:19:45.119 --> 00:19:47.759
<v Speaker 2>Well, no, I think that he intended not to do

365
00:19:47.839 --> 00:19:49.559
<v Speaker 2>it that way because I think that he did not

366
00:19:49.880 --> 00:19:53.680
<v Speaker 2>want to.

367
00:19:51.559 --> 00:19:53.039
<v Speaker 9>Be too American.

368
00:19:53.240 --> 00:19:56.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, right, I think he wanted to be, uh, you know,

369
00:19:56.440 --> 00:20:00.079
<v Speaker 2>the the universal representative of the church.

370
00:20:00.519 --> 00:20:05.359
<v Speaker 9>Right right. And you said you saw his brothers, I

371
00:20:05.480 --> 00:20:06.039
<v Speaker 9>did too.

372
00:20:06.279 --> 00:20:09.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I was on on channel five.

373
00:20:11.079 --> 00:20:12.640
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, I forgot which channel.

374
00:20:12.799 --> 00:20:14.720
<v Speaker 3>It was, Jedi five. Well maybe they were on the others,

375
00:20:14.759 --> 00:20:15.960
<v Speaker 3>but the one I saw was on five.

376
00:20:16.000 --> 00:20:18.599
<v Speaker 2>And there was one guy in Florida and the other

377
00:20:18.640 --> 00:20:21.480
<v Speaker 2>guy was still living in Chicago, and I guess they

378
00:20:21.599 --> 00:20:22.720
<v Speaker 2>keep in touch and.

379
00:20:22.839 --> 00:20:23.319
<v Speaker 3>All of that.

380
00:20:23.759 --> 00:20:25.640
<v Speaker 9>He said they speak every week.

381
00:20:26.359 --> 00:20:28.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, sounded like a pretty normal family.

382
00:20:28.599 --> 00:20:33.160
<v Speaker 9>Which, yeah, and he was the youngest. But the the

383
00:20:33.400 --> 00:20:37.559
<v Speaker 9>one of the brothers said when they were kids, remember that,

384
00:20:37.839 --> 00:20:40.000
<v Speaker 9>when they were kids, he said, oh right, that.

385
00:20:40.119 --> 00:20:42.519
<v Speaker 2>They would be said they'd be playing cowboys and Indians

386
00:20:42.559 --> 00:20:44.880
<v Speaker 2>or whatever, and or and the soldiers.

387
00:20:44.920 --> 00:20:49.000
<v Speaker 9>He was playing priest he wanted to be a priest.

388
00:20:49.119 --> 00:20:53.480
<v Speaker 9>And they'd set up the ironing board was the altar,

389
00:20:54.759 --> 00:20:58.400
<v Speaker 9>and uh yeah, he said. We'd sit there and he'd

390
00:20:58.759 --> 00:21:02.799
<v Speaker 9>pretend saying, man. Yeah, when he was a little kid.

391
00:21:03.119 --> 00:21:07.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you just you wonder, you just wonder what is

392
00:21:07.839 --> 00:21:10.119
<v Speaker 2>meant to be? But yeah, they were very nice people.

393
00:21:10.160 --> 00:21:13.079
<v Speaker 2>It struck me as a really nice family. They must

394
00:21:13.119 --> 00:21:15.839
<v Speaker 2>have been brought up very well and kind of old school,

395
00:21:15.880 --> 00:21:17.119
<v Speaker 2>because obviously they were.

396
00:21:17.359 --> 00:21:18.279
<v Speaker 3>He was the youngest.

397
00:21:18.319 --> 00:21:21.400
<v Speaker 2>He was born in nineteen fifty five, so his older

398
00:21:21.440 --> 00:21:25.400
<v Speaker 2>brothers probably were well also baby boomers sometimes born after

399
00:21:25.440 --> 00:21:28.799
<v Speaker 2>World War Two. And I'm sure that if you went

400
00:21:28.839 --> 00:21:31.160
<v Speaker 2>back and talked about his parents, I'm sure that they

401
00:21:31.160 --> 00:21:35.680
<v Speaker 2>were just typical, typical couple who met in Chicago or whatever,

402
00:21:35.720 --> 00:21:37.880
<v Speaker 2>and they had three boys in their family and that

403
00:21:38.039 --> 00:21:40.759
<v Speaker 2>was it. And one of them turns out to be pope.

404
00:21:40.759 --> 00:21:43.839
<v Speaker 2>What a long shot? Who would have expected that?

405
00:21:44.279 --> 00:21:48.880
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, like you, I never dreamed they would pick an American.

406
00:21:49.079 --> 00:21:55.599
<v Speaker 9>But I think God is at work. Well, I pray

407
00:21:55.839 --> 00:21:57.799
<v Speaker 9>that wonderful pope.

408
00:21:57.920 --> 00:22:00.759
<v Speaker 2>That's what the church says. I mean, I've I'm old

409
00:22:00.839 --> 00:22:02.920
<v Speaker 2>enough to remember this.

410
00:22:02.920 --> 00:22:04.200
<v Speaker 3>This is my seventh pope.

411
00:22:04.319 --> 00:22:09.440
<v Speaker 2>Okay, during that same period of time, we probably have

412
00:22:09.599 --> 00:22:12.960
<v Speaker 2>had close to a dozen presidents, so you know pope's

413
00:22:13.279 --> 00:22:17.039
<v Speaker 2>the presidents can only last eight years. Francis he lasted

414
00:22:17.400 --> 00:22:21.200
<v Speaker 2>twelve years. Benedict had eight years, which was considered a

415
00:22:21.240 --> 00:22:27.599
<v Speaker 2>short term. John Paul the Second he lasted twenty seven years,

416
00:22:29.240 --> 00:22:31.599
<v Speaker 2>twenty seven years from seventy eight to two thousand and five.

417
00:22:31.759 --> 00:22:35.160
<v Speaker 2>His predecessor was there only a month. Paul the sixth

418
00:22:35.279 --> 00:22:39.279
<v Speaker 2>was there for fifteen years. John the twenty.

419
00:22:39.000 --> 00:22:44.480
<v Speaker 9>Third was there for five years, and Past the twelfth.

420
00:22:44.119 --> 00:22:46.599
<v Speaker 2>Before that was there for twenty one years. So they

421
00:22:46.640 --> 00:22:49.000
<v Speaker 2>get different periods of time. And let's see, let's see

422
00:22:49.039 --> 00:22:51.240
<v Speaker 2>what this gentleman can do. Joey and I gotta keep

423
00:22:51.319 --> 00:22:53.839
<v Speaker 2>rolling here always great, dear your voice, Thank you so much.

424
00:22:54.000 --> 00:22:56.839
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, great, mine, thanks, thank you, appreciate it.

425
00:22:57.160 --> 00:22:59.799
<v Speaker 2>Let me go next to Antina in wunsokt Rhode Island. Tina,

426
00:22:59.839 --> 00:23:03.240
<v Speaker 2>you are next, and love to know what you think

427
00:23:03.240 --> 00:23:04.599
<v Speaker 2>of what transpired today.

428
00:23:05.720 --> 00:23:08.920
<v Speaker 8>Well, all I know is what happened today was for

429
00:23:09.039 --> 00:23:17.359
<v Speaker 8>me personally, I was so extremely happy and elated. And however,

430
00:23:18.440 --> 00:23:21.079
<v Speaker 8>listening to your program and what you were saying about

431
00:23:21.119 --> 00:23:26.759
<v Speaker 8>what it meant to an individual when John Pope Paul

432
00:23:27.119 --> 00:23:32.319
<v Speaker 8>the second became pope, and I am Polish American, my

433
00:23:32.440 --> 00:23:37.880
<v Speaker 8>whole family is Polish. That was the happiest day of

434
00:23:37.960 --> 00:23:38.839
<v Speaker 8>my life.

435
00:23:38.920 --> 00:23:40.279
<v Speaker 6>It was Wow.

436
00:23:41.640 --> 00:23:46.440
<v Speaker 8>It was And at the time that he became the

437
00:23:46.519 --> 00:23:53.480
<v Speaker 8>Polish Pope, Pope Poland really needed him and and the

438
00:23:53.519 --> 00:23:58.319
<v Speaker 8>Polish Pope was on the world scene, and he helped

439
00:23:58.799 --> 00:24:03.519
<v Speaker 8>to elevate Poland and the Polish people, and he also

440
00:24:03.720 --> 00:24:10.960
<v Speaker 8>helped to bring down communism along with Ronald along with

441
00:24:11.119 --> 00:24:17.160
<v Speaker 8>Ronald Reagan. So I'm trying to compare the significance with

442
00:24:17.279 --> 00:24:20.880
<v Speaker 8>this new American Pope. Now, I don't know if this

443
00:24:21.000 --> 00:24:25.160
<v Speaker 8>new American Pope, if he's going to have the same

444
00:24:25.279 --> 00:24:30.880
<v Speaker 8>kind of love relationship that Cardinal Voytiwa had from crack

445
00:24:30.960 --> 00:24:35.559
<v Speaker 8>while Poland and then he beat the Cardinal and then

446
00:24:35.599 --> 00:24:38.880
<v Speaker 8>he became the Pope. I don't know if the intensity

447
00:24:39.000 --> 00:24:42.400
<v Speaker 8>will be there, But I think that this is what

448
00:24:44.759 --> 00:24:50.279
<v Speaker 8>the American people need, and he will be able to

449
00:24:52.000 --> 00:24:57.319
<v Speaker 8>at some point come and visit America. I'm dying to

450
00:24:57.400 --> 00:25:03.240
<v Speaker 8>hear him speak English. I haven't heard him speak English yet,

451
00:25:03.440 --> 00:25:09.000
<v Speaker 8>so that's how I'm relating to the whole situation. And

452
00:25:09.759 --> 00:25:12.720
<v Speaker 8>Cardinal Boy, you were from Poland. When he became the pope,

453
00:25:13.200 --> 00:25:18.759
<v Speaker 8>he just turned he turned, he turned away communism. He

454
00:25:18.839 --> 00:25:24.039
<v Speaker 8>elevated Poland and the people of Poland. So let's see

455
00:25:24.079 --> 00:25:28.680
<v Speaker 8>if this new pope will will will do something good

456
00:25:29.079 --> 00:25:32.519
<v Speaker 8>for the United States of America, and maybe he will

457
00:25:32.559 --> 00:25:39.519
<v Speaker 8>elevate this country to maybe bring more people into the church.

458
00:25:40.480 --> 00:25:42.799
<v Speaker 3>That would be that would be the hope.

459
00:25:42.839 --> 00:25:45.920
<v Speaker 2>As a matter of fact, Maggie Haberman for The New

460
00:25:46.000 --> 00:25:49.359
<v Speaker 2>York Times and I'm trying to find it, uh, today

461
00:25:49.519 --> 00:25:53.559
<v Speaker 2>said something about Trump's reaction. Let me see if I

462
00:25:53.599 --> 00:25:57.240
<v Speaker 2>can find this. She was on with Jake Tapper on CNN,

463
00:25:57.799 --> 00:26:08.759
<v Speaker 2>and she was somewhat surprised, according to her that I

464
00:26:08.799 --> 00:26:11.279
<v Speaker 2>don't know, Uh, I can't find it here.

465
00:26:13.079 --> 00:26:14.519
<v Speaker 3>Uh.

466
00:26:14.799 --> 00:26:17.839
<v Speaker 2>It sounded as if she was saying that that Trump

467
00:26:19.160 --> 00:26:26.000
<v Speaker 2>was very uh engaging today and uh maybe maybe maybe

468
00:26:26.039 --> 00:26:29.160
<v Speaker 2>he will calm down some of his rhetoric in his

469
00:26:29.240 --> 00:26:31.680
<v Speaker 2>relationship with the new pope. That was what Habrid said.

470
00:26:31.759 --> 00:26:34.000
<v Speaker 2>Habrin is no fan of Donald Trump, as you know,

471
00:26:34.880 --> 00:26:38.200
<v Speaker 2>but that's that's if I can find that, I'll give

472
00:26:38.200 --> 00:26:39.440
<v Speaker 2>you a little bit more of that. On the other

473
00:26:39.480 --> 00:26:43.480
<v Speaker 2>side of the break. Fair enough. Thanks thanks Tine, appreciate

474
00:26:43.519 --> 00:26:45.240
<v Speaker 2>your call. Always great to hear your voice.

475
00:26:45.359 --> 00:26:47.640
<v Speaker 8>Thank you, Thank you, Dan, have.

476
00:26:47.559 --> 00:26:48.079
<v Speaker 3>A great night.

477
00:26:48.160 --> 00:26:50.160
<v Speaker 2>Let me get one more in here before the break.

478
00:26:50.240 --> 00:26:52.319
<v Speaker 2>Ron is in Weymouth. Ron, You're next time nightside. Your

479
00:26:52.359 --> 00:26:55.000
<v Speaker 2>reaction to the election of an American pope today.

480
00:26:55.799 --> 00:26:59.119
<v Speaker 11>Well, I was, of course, I'm a practicing Catholic, Moman

481
00:26:59.119 --> 00:27:02.039
<v Speaker 11>Catholic brother. I was surprised, but I was very elated,

482
00:27:02.519 --> 00:27:05.000
<v Speaker 11>you know. And I don't think people realize that a

483
00:27:05.240 --> 00:27:08.200
<v Speaker 11>pope is considered one of the world's most powerful people.

484
00:27:08.640 --> 00:27:12.960
<v Speaker 11>And why because, you know, due to the extensive diplomatic, cultural,

485
00:27:13.000 --> 00:27:16.400
<v Speaker 11>and spiritual information influence. You know that he has on

486
00:27:17.079 --> 00:27:20.079
<v Speaker 11>what one point three billion Catholics are there, but also

487
00:27:20.160 --> 00:27:24.079
<v Speaker 11>those outside the Catholic faith. And I don't think some

488
00:27:24.160 --> 00:27:27.960
<v Speaker 11>people realize that he ripped in the Catholic religion. He

489
00:27:28.039 --> 00:27:31.079
<v Speaker 11>rips sents a direct line back to Jesus, the second

490
00:27:31.079 --> 00:27:33.759
<v Speaker 11>person of the Trinity, and not to go into the

491
00:27:33.759 --> 00:27:38.960
<v Speaker 11>religion directly. But it does resound in that the papacy

492
00:27:39.039 --> 00:27:42.279
<v Speaker 11>has been very politically active throughout history, you know.

493
00:27:42.799 --> 00:27:43.599
<v Speaker 3>Well it was.

494
00:27:43.359 --> 00:27:46.720
<v Speaker 2>It was criticized during World War Two, whether or not

495
00:27:47.839 --> 00:27:54.279
<v Speaker 2>Pope Pius the twelfth did enough at the height of

496
00:27:54.640 --> 00:27:59.480
<v Speaker 2>Hitler's reign, and he was criticized for that and all

497
00:27:59.519 --> 00:28:03.440
<v Speaker 2>of that. But yeah, let's this. I think you're right.

498
00:28:03.480 --> 00:28:06.039
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it's an influential position. It's kind of a

499
00:28:06.039 --> 00:28:11.000
<v Speaker 2>little bit like Switzerland that it has relations with lots

500
00:28:11.000 --> 00:28:15.519
<v Speaker 2>of countries and even now has relationships relationship with China,

501
00:28:15.559 --> 00:28:20.119
<v Speaker 2>which a long time it didn't. So you know, let's uh,

502
00:28:20.519 --> 00:28:25.519
<v Speaker 2>let's see how this transpires. Uh, it could be that

503
00:28:25.519 --> 00:28:30.960
<v Speaker 2>that if Donald Trump was smart. Uh uh he Well,

504
00:28:30.960 --> 00:28:35.160
<v Speaker 2>this is what I just found. This was from MSNBC Today,

505
00:28:35.400 --> 00:28:40.119
<v Speaker 2>New York Times Maggie Hagerman. Haberman flags Trump's signed he

506
00:28:40.200 --> 00:28:44.160
<v Speaker 2>wants an end to fighting, said New York Times reporter

507
00:28:44.279 --> 00:28:47.359
<v Speaker 2>Maggie Haberman, who's a critic of Trump, said President Trump's

508
00:28:47.599 --> 00:28:50.119
<v Speaker 2>praised for newly elected Pope Leo the fourteenth as a

509
00:28:50.160 --> 00:28:53.279
<v Speaker 2>sign he's trying to tamp down his constant brawling. Speaking

510
00:28:53.319 --> 00:28:58.359
<v Speaker 2>to CNN's Jake Tapper on Thursday Today, Haberman said Trump's

511
00:28:58.400 --> 00:29:01.359
<v Speaker 2>warm compliments for the new pope in a Truth Socials

512
00:29:01.440 --> 00:29:03.720
<v Speaker 2>post where he said it was a great honor for

513
00:29:03.759 --> 00:29:06.640
<v Speaker 2>our country to have the first American Pope, who he

514
00:29:06.759 --> 00:29:09.039
<v Speaker 2>said looks who he looks forward to meeting. Was a

515
00:29:09.039 --> 00:29:12.240
<v Speaker 2>shift in his previous tone towards the Vatican. I think

516
00:29:12.279 --> 00:29:14.480
<v Speaker 2>that Trump is trying not to be in conflict with

517
00:29:14.640 --> 00:29:18.359
<v Speaker 2>everyone as much as he was before, Haberman said, noting

518
00:29:18.400 --> 00:29:22.559
<v Speaker 2>the Magi leaders feud with Pope Francis dated back to

519
00:29:22.599 --> 00:29:26.319
<v Speaker 2>the twenty six sixteen elections. So b's a sign that

520
00:29:26.440 --> 00:29:30.680
<v Speaker 2>maybe Magie Maggie have Haberman, who is no fan of

521
00:29:30.720 --> 00:29:33.720
<v Speaker 2>Donald Trump, might see something that others haven't seen and

522
00:29:34.440 --> 00:29:36.440
<v Speaker 2>who knows where this might leave.

523
00:29:37.640 --> 00:29:41.000
<v Speaker 11>That's true, and I did hear. I had heard part

524
00:29:41.039 --> 00:29:43.079
<v Speaker 11>of that on TV on the I don't know what

525
00:29:43.200 --> 00:29:46.680
<v Speaker 11>share it was, but you know, Trump did a favorable

526
00:29:48.000 --> 00:29:52.519
<v Speaker 11>explanation of how well it was that the Pope was

527
00:29:52.559 --> 00:29:54.519
<v Speaker 11>elected and he was an American. But I think he's

528
00:29:54.559 --> 00:29:58.000
<v Speaker 11>trying to, like you say, not stay in the too

529
00:29:58.079 --> 00:30:00.759
<v Speaker 11>much of the religious section because he's he's definitely not

530
00:30:00.799 --> 00:30:02.400
<v Speaker 11>a Catholic. I don't think I think he's a part

531
00:30:02.440 --> 00:30:05.160
<v Speaker 11>of them, but he's trying to keep it together where

532
00:30:05.200 --> 00:30:06.359
<v Speaker 11>he does approve of it.

533
00:30:06.920 --> 00:30:08.920
<v Speaker 3>He's also you know, yeah.

534
00:30:08.920 --> 00:30:11.400
<v Speaker 2>He's also the president of the United States that probably

535
00:30:11.440 --> 00:30:13.920
<v Speaker 2>has seventy million so I don't know what the Catholic

536
00:30:14.000 --> 00:30:16.559
<v Speaker 2>population is in the US, so he has to be

537
00:30:17.039 --> 00:30:19.720
<v Speaker 2>respectful of other people's religions as well.

538
00:30:20.000 --> 00:30:20.960
<v Speaker 5>I don't know about the US.

539
00:30:21.000 --> 00:30:22.640
<v Speaker 11>I think it's one point three billion in the.

540
00:30:22.640 --> 00:30:25.400
<v Speaker 2>World, one point three one point four billion worldwide. I'll

541
00:30:25.400 --> 00:30:27.799
<v Speaker 2>figure out the Catholic population in the USA. Yeah, it's

542
00:30:27.799 --> 00:30:31.240
<v Speaker 2>about seventy million, I think, but I'll have that number

543
00:30:31.240 --> 00:30:32.720
<v Speaker 2>on the on the other side of this break.

544
00:30:32.759 --> 00:30:35.920
<v Speaker 3>Okay, Okay, thanks Ron.

545
00:30:35.920 --> 00:30:39.559
<v Speaker 11>Well, thanks thanks for taking my view, and have a

546
00:30:39.559 --> 00:30:40.519
<v Speaker 11>great night, good night.

547
00:30:41.039 --> 00:30:41.319
<v Speaker 3>Okay.

548
00:30:41.359 --> 00:30:43.160
<v Speaker 2>One line at six one seven, two, five, four to

549
00:30:43.200 --> 00:30:45.319
<v Speaker 2>ten thirty and two lines at six one seven, nine

550
00:30:45.359 --> 00:30:47.200
<v Speaker 2>three one ten thirty. I'll be back with the number

551
00:30:47.240 --> 00:30:49.599
<v Speaker 2>of Catholics in the United States. My guess is seventy

552
00:30:49.880 --> 00:30:52.039
<v Speaker 2>to seventy five. We'll see what way up what I

553
00:30:52.039 --> 00:30:54.359
<v Speaker 2>find out. Coming back on night Side. Got a couple

554
00:30:54.400 --> 00:30:56.079
<v Speaker 2>of lines open, fill them up. If you've been trying

555
00:30:56.079 --> 00:30:58.640
<v Speaker 2>to get through the lines have been very busy. I apologize.

556
00:30:58.799 --> 00:31:00.839

558
00:31:02.720 --> 00:31:07.000
<v Speaker 1>You're on Night Side with Dan Ray on WBZ, Boston's

559
00:31:07.039 --> 00:31:07.680
<v Speaker 1>news radio.

560
00:31:08.599 --> 00:31:11.480
<v Speaker 2>Just it's a math and the estamates are about twenty

561
00:31:11.519 --> 00:31:17.200
<v Speaker 2>percent of the Catholic population is Catholic. That would work

562
00:31:17.240 --> 00:31:19.440
<v Speaker 2>out to about sixty six million, so that's pretty close

563
00:31:20.680 --> 00:31:23.000
<v Speaker 2>about twenty percent of We have about three hundred and

564
00:31:23.000 --> 00:31:27.599
<v Speaker 2>thirty million people in the country. Six thirty one line

565
00:31:27.599 --> 00:31:29.079
<v Speaker 2>there and I got a couple of lines at six one,

566
00:31:29.160 --> 00:31:34.200
<v Speaker 2>seven ninety. If you have not called before, you were

567
00:31:34.240 --> 00:31:36.920
<v Speaker 2>welcome to join the conversation. We're looking for your reaction

568
00:31:37.039 --> 00:31:41.039
<v Speaker 2>to the election of the first American pope. I don't

569
00:31:41.079 --> 00:31:44.039
<v Speaker 2>know that there'll be many more American popes because I

570
00:31:44.079 --> 00:31:46.880
<v Speaker 2>think they will move that on or around. And I

571
00:31:46.920 --> 00:31:52.799
<v Speaker 2>think that we've seen in recent years Argentina, we've seen.

572
00:31:53.920 --> 00:31:56.079
<v Speaker 3>Germany, Poland. Uh.

573
00:31:56.119 --> 00:31:58.720
<v Speaker 2>It kind of broke the string of the Italian popes

574
00:31:58.880 --> 00:32:02.880
<v Speaker 2>which had dominated the Roman Catholic Church for so long.

575
00:32:03.559 --> 00:32:06.920
<v Speaker 2>Join the conversation. Let me go next to Alex and hebri. Hey, Alex,

576

579
00:32:17.400 --> 00:32:20.559
<v Speaker 6>You know, I went to parochial school, went to Merrimack,

580
00:32:20.720 --> 00:32:24.400
<v Speaker 6>was educated by Augustinians. Have a fondness for them, for

581
00:32:24.440 --> 00:32:28.240
<v Speaker 6>their connection to the Hispanic community in the Merrimack Valley,

582
00:32:28.400 --> 00:32:31.839
<v Speaker 6>and you know, had my older sister call. She was

583
00:32:31.880 --> 00:32:34.319
<v Speaker 6>in tears. I was you know me, you see what

584
00:32:34.359 --> 00:32:37.640
<v Speaker 6>I look like And I looked at the bouncer, was myself.

585
00:32:37.319 --> 00:32:39.920
<v Speaker 2>Alex, you're you're a friend of many years. I've missed you.

586
00:32:40.079 --> 00:32:42.599
<v Speaker 2>Thank you very much for calling in tonight. By the way,

587
00:32:42.759 --> 00:32:49.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm told that Merrimack College, which is Augustinian, gave this

588
00:32:49.799 --> 00:32:53.400
<v Speaker 2>new pope an honorary degree back in two thousand and five.

589
00:32:53.519 --> 00:32:56.000
<v Speaker 2>I was on one of the broadcasts tonight. I was

590
00:32:56.079 --> 00:32:56.680
<v Speaker 2>unaware of that.

591
00:32:57.640 --> 00:32:59.920
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, that they did. And you know, he's a lot

592
00:33:00.480 --> 00:33:04.359
<v Speaker 6>As an Augustindian. I reflected on those guys that touched

593
00:33:04.359 --> 00:33:07.400
<v Speaker 6>my life, those priests, and rateful to every one of

594
00:33:07.440 --> 00:33:11.079
<v Speaker 6>them has been there and uh, you know these last

595
00:33:11.119 --> 00:33:13.400
<v Speaker 6>five years of brokenness as the people. And I'm hoping

596
00:33:13.440 --> 00:33:16.759
<v Speaker 6>he's a uniter. He invigorated something in me, not just

597
00:33:16.799 --> 00:33:20.160
<v Speaker 6>as an American, as a Latino, and you know, the

598
00:33:20.279 --> 00:33:23.279
<v Speaker 6>great to hear in Spanish, but to hear to see

599
00:33:23.720 --> 00:33:26.920
<v Speaker 6>you know what. You know, I was watching the TV,

600
00:33:27.039 --> 00:33:29.880
<v Speaker 6>you know, I work from home now and to hear

601
00:33:29.920 --> 00:33:31.720
<v Speaker 6>that they picked up prope and you know, yeah. My

602
00:33:31.799 --> 00:33:33.680
<v Speaker 6>line went out, the one up for three years taking

603
00:33:33.680 --> 00:33:37.160

625
00:34:37.519 --> 00:34:39.400
<v Speaker 2>with someone today. I said, you know, there aren't too

626
00:34:39.400 --> 00:34:43.719
<v Speaker 2>many Cardinals who were club fans. You know, obviously, Cubs

627
00:34:43.760 --> 00:34:48.400
<v Speaker 2>and Cardinals are are bit like Red Sox and Yankees

628
00:34:48.440 --> 00:34:50.559
<v Speaker 2>in the National League. If you root for the Cardinals,

629
00:34:50.639 --> 00:34:52.679
<v Speaker 2>there's no way you root for the Cubs. Is so

00:36:21.039 --> 00:36:24.039
<v Speaker 2>Well I don't think that uh, that Pope Leo was

00:36:24.079 --> 00:36:26.159
<v Speaker 2>ever for a party animal, even when he was building

667

<v Speaker 2>think let me just I'm looking. I heard that reference today. Yeah,

669
00:36:33.119 --> 00:36:37.639
<v Speaker 2>that's sounds about right to me. Saint Augustine of Hippo, Yeah,

670
00:36:37.960 --> 00:36:40.320
<v Speaker 2>I remember that reference. Let me get this real quickly

671

<v Speaker 2>here for you, and we'll we'll make sure that we

672
00:36:43.119 --> 00:36:47.920
<v Speaker 2>got the date down correctly. Yeah, let's here we go. Uh,

673
00:36:48.280 --> 00:36:52.559
<v Speaker 2>what is the the year here? Let me see here

674
00:36:52.639 --> 00:36:56.480
<v Speaker 2>real quickly. Uh, that's a book they're pulling up. They're

675
00:36:56.480 --> 00:36:59.920
<v Speaker 2>all ads here. He was a philosopher three fifty four

676
00:37:00.119 --> 00:37:02.480
<v Speaker 2>four thirty, so yeah, he was the fifth century. I

677
00:37:02.480 --> 00:37:04.039
<v Speaker 2>guess you would say, fifth century.

678
00:37:04.199 --> 00:37:05.119
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that's the guy.

679
00:37:06.280 --> 00:37:10.440
<v Speaker 10>Well, listen, I wish I wish him. I wish him

680
00:37:10.440 --> 00:37:14.360
<v Speaker 10>the best. I wish the Catholic Church the best. And uh,

681
00:37:14.400 --> 00:37:16.840
<v Speaker 10>you know he could do. He's gonna have to crack

682
00:37:16.920 --> 00:37:22.039
<v Speaker 10>the whip, okay to uh to uh the uh faithful

683
00:37:22.039 --> 00:37:24.199
<v Speaker 10>here in the United States. I think if you compare

684
00:37:24.280 --> 00:37:28.119
<v Speaker 10>the Catholics in the United States to Catholics around the world,

685
00:37:28.280 --> 00:37:32.559
<v Speaker 10>I think that uh, like uh from just my experience

686
00:37:32.639 --> 00:37:36.519
<v Speaker 10>then that they take their religious they take the religion,

687
00:37:37.400 --> 00:37:42.239
<v Speaker 10>Catholic religion more serious in other countries than we know.

688
00:37:42.599 --> 00:37:45.440
<v Speaker 2>And we have a lot of distractions here, okay, and uh,

689
00:37:45.519 --> 00:37:47.039
<v Speaker 2>you know, there's been a lot of things that have

690
00:37:47.119 --> 00:37:50.599
<v Speaker 2>taken away. Uh you know, soccer games on Sunday mornings,

691
00:37:50.639 --> 00:37:52.559
<v Speaker 2>when parents had to make a choice did they take

692
00:37:52.599 --> 00:37:55.440
<v Speaker 2>the kids to church or did they take the kids.

693
00:37:55.199 --> 00:37:56.760
<v Speaker 3>To There's a lot of that.

694
00:37:56.800 --> 00:37:58.559
<v Speaker 2>There's a lot of stuff going on in this country

695
00:37:58.559 --> 00:38:01.920
<v Speaker 2>and a lot of the other countries. The religious service

696
00:38:01.920 --> 00:38:03.320
