Episode 3 - A Son of Adam Remembers
This sobering, sinister sermon by the good Reverend Weaver explores the rise and fall of mankind via one young hustler's desperate struggle to bribe his guilt with his heart. A prodigal drug dealer tries to steal the heart of a pretty cashier, in order to covertly atone for a desperate and horrible act. But his romantic attempt to ease his conscience and follow his heart becomes a race against his own checkered past and haunting memories, along a collision course toward an equally haunting reckoning...

Customer Reviews
Needs A Reboot...
This brilliant podcast was three years ahead of its time - so it really needs to be re-launched and raved about everywhere by the fans.
This cross between “The Bunker” and “The Story Must Be Told” would not only make a perfect fit within the 2020 ocean of podcast titles, but truly should find itself at the TOP of that list, once its presence is made known... because the market is THERE for this kind of surreal *gospel Armageddon radio variety show.”
I pray for it to rise again, like the Phoenix, and for its flight to take it to great altitudes of success ~~~
just here to say...
The Rev's got a super sexy voice!
TBH a little blown-away
Reverend Weaver is incredibly effective. The style and feel of everything are totally on-point. My completely personal opinion is the whole package hasn't quite coalesced into what it has the potential to be, but they have really hit on something good here and I am genuinely excited for the next episode. The feel of the world they've created is so palpable, I absolutely love it. Please keep 'em coming!!
