So we interviewed our boss Ep. 53

It’s taken over a year for us to get our boss, Matt Malone, S.J.,
on Jesuitical—and we promise it was worth the wait. Matt is
president and editor in chief of America, and the reason why
Jesuitical exists in the first place. This week we talk to him
about Pope Francis’ election five years ago, for which he was
present, the spiritual side of St. Patrick’s day and his journey to
working at America. In Signs of the Times we chat about  our
favorite topic of all time: Catholic sisters, since it’s National
Catholic Sisters Week, and we also discuss how Catholics should be
responding to the Parkland students’ call for gun reform. Thank you
to all of our new patrons this week! To see the full unedited
