Pope is not dead. He’s locked in the cellar and was able to get his hands on a broken phone that was only capable to call your number with very limited battery. He got the phone by beating guard to death with his food bowl.
… and you missed it.

And he’s a time traveler, it seems, since the call is dated to 2021

Hilarious, if true.

Unfortunately the calling party can show whatever they want for the caller number, there’s no validation that it’s true.

Doesn’t the phone number come from the phone network and not the caller?
