Speaker 3: the time.
Speaker 5: Are you always very prepared, Clint.
Speaker 3: Always very prepared, well researched. Yes you watch am I.
Speaker 4: Yes, just speaking of well prepared, you'd be all across
Speaker 4: the conclave process. Can you just give us a summary
Speaker 4: of what we can expect over the next sort of
Speaker 4: nine days.
Speaker 3: Well, some of the best best cardinals from right the
Speaker 3: way around the world are currently gathering in Rome and
Speaker 3: the Vatican.
Speaker 6: I don't think it gets underway because there's that morning period,
Speaker 6: is that right?
Speaker 4: Nine days of morning, which is the same for Geelong
Speaker 4: fans after they lost to Carlton, by the way. But
Speaker 4: then and then it's all about who's going to be
Speaker 4: the pope, the front runners, who are the favorites.
Speaker 2: I've got a favorite candidate. He's an American.
Speaker 3: Cardinal, Joseph Tobin could become the first American pope. The
Speaker 3: Archbishop of New Jersey is a weightlifting reformed alcoholic.
Speaker 4: So if anything is overqualified, wouldn't that be amazing former.
Speaker 2: Alcoholic alcoholic, he's a real man.
Speaker 4: It'd be the first time the popeman Bill has an
Speaker 4: interlock field.

Speaker 7: and he liked at you, and you said, because I'm serious,
Speaker 7: I'm sending all the real journalists.
Speaker 2: So who are Channel nine have they sent? Over all?

Speaker 6: Jessica and Millwood she's there as well.
Speaker 7: Yes, you asked Clint if he was going and then
Speaker 7: he laughed and you said, no, I'm I was being
Speaker 7: quite serious because a lot of journalists are going and
Speaker 7: we're just at this stage starting to wonder if Clint
Speaker 7: can be considered a journalist.
Speaker 5: Well, I don't know if you saw what he was
Speaker 5: tasked to do.
Speaker 7: There's all this breaking news. We're in the middle of
