Mark your calendars, y'all! On May 7, RTL—with RTL+ premiering the show—is bringing you a giant helping of nonsense with "#DGHNDMBSR - Pope Election Special." Hosted by the one-and-only Stefan Raab (58), this show is gonna be wild!

Get ready to shake your sexy pope hats to the tunes of our special guest, that Italian stallion, Giovanni Zarrella (47). Plus, we'll be hitting up the 39th German Evangelical Church Convention for a good old-fashioned street survey. You know, just to keep things churchy.

STRA seems to have transformed his game show studio into an itty-bitty Vatican, as per the press release. Expect to see robes, some conclave vibes, and a whole lotta FUN! The audience will even get to play a part in this holy shindig.

Speaking of STAR, his comeback show, "You Don't Win the Million Here," made its premier on RTL+ last fall and has been airing weekly on free TV since February 2025. It's like a love child of "TV total" and "Schlag den Raab." Lately, there have been some specials with celebs, with the "Dance into May" extravaganza featuring "Let's Dance" professionals Malika Dzumaev, Renata Lusin, and Massimo Sinató just last week.
