You’ve heard the stories — the halos, the heroics, the holy men who glowed in stained glass.
But what about the rest of the story? The blood, the dirt, the doubt — the messy moments where faith met fire?
Saints & Sinners is a short-form storytelling podcast that digs through history’s rubble to find the moments when heaven and hell wrestled for a soul — and one of them won.
Told in the spirit of Mike Rowe’s The Way I Heard It, these are the stories you thought you knew… told the way they should’ve been told: raw, reverent, and real.
Saints rise. Sinners fall. And history bears witness.

Saints rise. Sinners fall. And history bears witness.
He was a slave, a swindler, a brawler—and somehow, a pope.This is the story of a man who clawed his way up from the salt mines of Sardinia to the catacombs of Rome… only to divide the Church with mercy.
Scandal followed him. So did chains, controversy, and one very bitter rival. But when the dust settled, he’d done the unthinkable: shattered the illusion that sainthood requires spotless beginnings.
In this episode, we unearth the dirt, the drama, and the divine grace buried in one of the Church’s most unlikely success stories. Because sometimes the keeper of the crypt ends up wearing the keys to the kingdom.
Grace is not neat. Holiness is not polite. And redemption rarely makes sense.
Hit play—this one’s a resurrection story wrapped in scandal.
