This show will detail the biographies and interesting facts of the Papacy of Rome. It will start in the beginning, but will not go straight through. There will be many side tracks and detours along the way. We will investigate the backstreets of the Papacy where the tour normally doesn't go.

At first sight, the topic may appear to be of limited interest, something for staunch Catholics and theologians to be interested in. But the history of the papacy is also the history of (early) Christianity, and the debates of that period shaped the world for centuries. Some interest in theology is probably required; but you don't have to be religious to enjoy this history of ideas.
