392 - History's Worst Popes

This week Dave takes us on a whistle stop tour through some of history's wildest, weirdest and wackiest Popes, all on the way to talking about a man who was possibly the wildest of them all... Pope Benedict IX, the only person to become Pope on three seperate occasions and the only person to ever SELL the Papacy.


This is a comedy/history podcast, the report begins at approximately 03:41 (though as always, we go off on tangents throughout the report).
