Andrew tells the tale of 1920s-era Los Angeles celebrity preacher Aimee Semple McPherson, who founded the Foursquare Church, one of the first megachurches in America, as well as her mysterious disappearance.

This was the first ep the boys ever recorded so apologies for any references to the podcast not having a title or if the audio isn't quite as crisp as the other eps. Trust us, it's a wild one.
