1. On This Rock, I Will Build My Podcast
Welcome to Pontifacts; ranking all the Popes from Peter to Francis! 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.
In this episode, we introduce our concept, our ranking rounds, and discuss how to become a Pope!

3. Peter
Our first Pope, St. Peter, is the rock on which the Catholic Church was built – but was this a wise decision? In this episode, we discuss Peter’s life and death, his habit of being a two-faced douche who wrecks parties, and whether or not we think he can defend his circular friends at the end!

4. Linus
Our second and lesser known Pope, Linus, had a big act to follow. But he was a talented preacher that drew many converts to the church, and irritated whole cities. In this episode we look at his life, his lips, and ask the question: Is he worthy of a papal bull?

5. Anacletus
Pope Anacletus... or Pope Cletus... or both? Our third pope has contributed quite a lot to the confusion of the early papal orders. In this episode, we'll examine his lasting contributions of the papacy, and decide once and for all if he is one or two people.
Side Note: Fry's audio is a bit warbly in this episode; chalk it up to growing pains of the new podcast!

6. Clement
Pope Clement I arguably has one of the most interesting lives of the early popes, and not just because of the fan fiction written about him! In this episode, we tackle his fantastical life story, his dramatic legacy, and how he is still relevant in 2018.

Customer Reviews
So entertaining
Really enjoying this podcast. It’s really informative and interesting, and the best part entertaining.
recently discovered you
great podcast! Love your humor! Thank you.
The only reason my house is clean!
I turn this on and just clean. The way the podcast goes just makes it easy to know what is being said and keep up without having to put all my focus into listening to it. The longer episodes are easy to listen to because the stories are typically WILD, which make it fun, and the shorter ones are easy because they go by quickly, you hear the rankings (always hilarious), and then it’s on to the next one. I’ve been listening for 7 weeks now and am only up to Pretty Mast but it’s gone by so fast and I find myself excited for the next day so I can clean and listen more 😂
