The discussion begins with the idea of "what is a conspiracy" and parsing the difference between "conspiracy theorists" and those who understand that there are such things as conspiracies and have simply studied enough history to see where they are clearly exposed.

A man who truly played both sides, he managed to co-opt revolutionary ideals while imposing a draconian autocracy previously unseen even under Louis XIV.

We start by examining the definition of revolution as it is defined by Father Denis Fahey, C.S.Sp., what it does to the social order of society, and how it affects both Church and State.

Francis WatchEpisode 15: The Recyclical and the Art of Not Talking Too MuchFrancis’ first encyclical has been published, and of course Francis Watch is covering it. Listen to Father Anthony Cekada, who read the entire encyclical on the day of its release comment on its “content” along with Bishop Donald Sanborn. In addition to analyzing the encyclical and the reaction to its arguments, we cover the familiar ground of all Francis Watch episodes this season:
* Synod Watch
* Francis’ newest insults and condemnations
* Francis’ ever-growing one world church, made larger by every new denomination he claims to be in union with
* Francis’ non-ironic admonition for pastors “not to speak so much.”

Francis WatchEpisode 14: Glue, Pilots, and “Unity”It's the end of the month, which means it's time for Francis Watch. Guests Bishop Donald Sanborn and Father Anthony Cekada wade through the muck and detritus that issues forth from Francis, his cronies, his would-be defenders, his detractors, and the world at large. In this month's episode, we cover:
* Pre-synodal agitation: What will the Germans do?
* A "third way" to deal with the "current teaching" of the Church on adultery and homosexuality
* The importance of Christians kneeling in front of the poor
* The fact that the worst evils in the world are poverty, corruption, and human trafficking
* The importance...2015-05-291h 51
Francis WatchEpisode 13: Mercy, Joy, and EncounterIn this month’s episode of Francis Watch, guests Bishop Donald Sanborn and Father Anthony Cekada explore the continuing Lutheran themes inherent in the “theology” of Francis Bergoglio, particularly woven between the threads of “mercy,” “joy,” and “surprise.” Topics covered include:
* The Year of Mercy
* A warning for priests to avoid being peacocks
* An encouragement to baptize all who ask for it (a preparation for a darker purpose, as our guests explain to us)
* More discussion of “encounter”
* A reminder that those who “do not know how to dialogue disobey God”
* Praise for the Charismatic movement
* An update on the situation of the German Bi...2015-04-291h 52
Francis WatchEpisode 12: Hell Gets AnnihilatedThe full crew of Francis Watch returns to look at yet another disastrous month in the so-called pontificate of Francis Bergoglio.
In this month's show, we cover a new heresy, that damned souls are merely annihilated, and do not suffer the pains of hell. If that wasn't enough for those in denial about the reality of who Francis is and what he wants, we also go on to discuss:
* Cardinal Kasper's referring to Bergoglio's reign as a "paradigm shift"
* The German Bishops indicating they feel no obligation to follow synodal directives
* Francis' soaring popularity in America
* Francis blaming "clericalism" for...2015-03-271h 32
Francis WatchEpisode 11: Rabbits, Resistance, and The Reform of the ReformFebruary is the shortest month, but Francis hasn't acted that way, giving us plenty of material to cover for the month of February.
Regular host Justin Soeder and regular guest Bishop Donald Sanborn were unable to be part of the broadcast, so Stephen Heiner filled in as host and Fr. Cekada joined in his regular guest slot.
On tap for this month's episode:

Francis WatchEpisode 9: Bergoglio’s “Theology of Surprises”In the final episode of Season 3 of Francis Watch, His Excellency Bishop Donald Sanborn and Fr. Anthony Cekada discuss, as they have almost every month this year, the doings of the Novus Ordo religion, and in particular, the words and actions of Jorge Maria Bergoglio, who goes by the name Francis.
The show begins by discussing some of the ongoing aftershocks of the Synod - not just the "conservative" neo-Thermidorean reaction of people like Burke, Schneider, and Pell, but the musings of Vaticanistas like Roberto de Mattei and Sandro Magister. Does Francis know what he's doing? The hand-wringers hope he...2014-11-261h 48
Francis WatchEpisode 6: Bergoglio’s Ten SuggestionsWe will start by tackling the latest in the Bergoglian revolution:
Francis' recently released "Ten Tips for Happiness" (http://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/pope-francis-issues-top-10-tips-for-happiness-9639488.html) which have positively nothing to do with God, nor anything to the supernatural whatsoever. We see in this list of Bergoglio's ten suggestions, which start off with #1 being live and let live, more of his naturalistic Marxism on display, which seeks to keep the soul of man firmly grounded in naturalism and completely omits God or the faith in having anything to do with happiness. The absurdity of this list shows the...2014-08-211h 27
Francis WatchEpisode 4: John XXIII – The Patron Saint of ModernismOn April 27, 2014, Bergoglio "canonized" John XXIII and John Paul II, the two "bookends" of the Second Vatican Council, in order to leave no doubt about the direction that his revolution to transform the face of Catholicism will take: More Vatican II, more upheaval, more doctrinal and moral chaos.
The misdeeds of John Paul II are still fresh in the unhappy memory of a generation of traditional Catholics, so his "canonization" has provoked widespread outrage in those circles. Far less well known, however, are the words and deeds Angelo Guiseppe Roncalli, a modernist through and through from the youngest days of...2014-05-212h 01
