To mark our 100th episode, actor/writer Vince Cusimano joins me for a deep dive into the electrifying, Oscar-winning documentary Marjoe (1972). We unpack the unbelievable true story of Marjoe Gortner—a child preacher turned charismatic showman—whose final revival tour became a jaw-dropping exposé of faith, performance, and manipulation.

From tent revivals to Hollywood, Marjoe’s journey is as surreal as it is sobering. Spoilers abound (as always), so buckle up for a conversation that’s part film analysis, part cultural autopsy.
