In this light-hearted, only slightly blasphemous podcast, Bry and Fry go through the lives of the Pontiffs, and rate them based on our very valid and not subjective at all categories, to determine which Pope was the popiest Pope that ever Poped.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-08T16:18:48.994800+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/pontifacts-ranking-the-popes-896256"},"episode":{"title":"18.

But is that a bad thing? His enemies have so much to say! In this episode, we discuss Callixtus's adventurous life, his scandalous policies, his cemetery, and determine whether he was a Saint, or a massive sinner.
