  1. What does the voice say at the beginning of the Kresta in the Afternoon intro, when he begins talking about the election of Pope Francis (just before "Habemus Papam")? To me, it sounds something like "This focus wide as we know, have a new pope" (but I know that isn't right). I have heard this many times in the show intro, but I still can't make out the actual words, and I would love to know what he is actually saying.

    I know that my question is not relevant to this one particular blog post, but I would appreciate it if someone can reply with the actual words, just so that it will stop bugging me every time I listen to the show. :-)
