#277 - Philip Shenon: The Vatican’s HIDDEN History: Hitler, the CIA, & Protecting Predators
In this episode of The Zach Show, award-winning journalist Philip Shenon, author of Jesus Wept, takes us inside the Vatican’s most turbulent century. From Pope Pius XII’s meeting with Hitler and his controversial silence during the Holocaust, to Pope John XXIII’s revolutionary Vatican II reforms, we trace the Church’s battles over power, mercy, and truth. Shenon unpacks Hans Küng’s assault on papal infallibility, the decades-long rivalry with Joseph Ratzinger, and explosive evidence tying John Paul II and Benedict XVI to global abuse cover-ups. We also explore the Vatican’s Cold War alliance with the CIA, Francis’s “Who am I to judge?” moment, and whether Vatican Intelligence still plays in the shadows.
