Mega Presents...The Rise and Fall of Twi...

AUDIOCHUCK
About this episode

The Rise & Fall of Twin Hills is gripping five-part mockumentary investigating a scandal involving the podcast’s fictional pastor.  It masterfully combines elements of self-seriousness and sharp satire to present a story that is both absurd and believable, touching upon themes of power, popularity, secrets, sex, money, and even the temptation of delectable Chic-fil-A chicken nuggets. 

This is Part 1: Of Milk & Miracles - When a struggling food blogger comes to review the Chick-Fil-A at a local mega church, he stumbles on scandals involving its lead pastor Steve Judson.
