The first American pope, Leo XIV, was elected on May 8, 2025, and he’s already shaking up the world. From his Chicago roots to his past criticism of Trump, Pope Leo XIV (Robert Francis Prevost) is being hailed as a unifier by some and a Vatican puppet by others. Is he a spiritual leader, a political player, or a globalist pawn? Tim and Rich dive into the X-fueled debates, unpack his immigration stance, and question the Vatican’s motives in choosing an American pope during a polarized 2025. Join The UnWoke Show for an unfiltered look at power, faith, and politics in this historic moment. Share your take on X with #UnWokeShow!
