  • Résumé

  • WHITE SMOKE: The Path to A New Pope explores humanity's most elaborate and secretive transfer of power - the death of a pope and the election of his successor. From the traditional three taps of a silver hammer on a pope's forehead to confirm death, to the burning of his ring, to the secret conversations that choose the next leader of one billion faithful, this series reveals the hidden rituals, ancient traditions, and behind-the-scenes drama of papal transition. Join us as we explore how the Catholic Church has perfected this sacred process over two thousand years, and what happens in those crucial days between popes when the throne of Saint Peter stands empty.

    5. Thirty-Three Days: The Smiling Pope's Brief Reign
    Mar 2 2025
    This episode explores the unexpected election and brief papacy of Albino Luciani, who became Pope John Paul I in August 1978. It examines how this humble son of a bricklayer broke with Vatican traditions immediately upon his election—refusing the papal throne, speaking in first person, and declining formal ceremonies. The episode traces his vision for a simpler, more accessible Church that shocked the Vatican establishment and won him worldwide admiration as "The Smiling Pope." His thirty-three days in office represented a potentially transformative moment for the Catholic Church before his sudden death cut his papacy tragically short.
