In this thought-provoking episode of Mark and Pete, we explore three major stories making headlines and stirring conversations. First, we discuss the passing of Pope Francis at age 88 and reflect on his papacy, legacy, and what lies ahead for the Catholic Church. Then, we turn to the UK Supreme Court’s landmark ruling that legally defines “woman” as biologically female under the Equality Act — a decision welcomed by some and hotly contested by others. Finally, we examine the backlash following a controversial Saturday Night Live sketch mocking British actress Aimee Lou Wood’s appearance, raising questions about comedy, cruelty, and cultural sensitivity.
