I’m under the understanding that when the pope speaks on biblical matters he’s correct.

Nope.

Only when he formally says “This is Infallible”.

This guy’s not even pope.

False-prophet forerunner of the Antichrist, perhaps.

Yes. Except when he’s a heretic.

Babbling to a journalist isn't formal teaching. He has attempt to teach (a) definitively and (b) to the whole church for infallibility to come into play.

Your understanding is incorrect. We trust, on the basis of Christ's promises, that the Pope will never be able to effectively pull the whole Church into error on the basis of obedience to papal "doctrine." That is, it has to be a highly formal, official, "ex cathedra" statement.

This "ex cathedra" condition has been invoked only once since the doctrine of infallibility was defined. The following 2 minute YouTube --- which is actually funny, in a grim but wacky way --- should help clarify this.
