Twin brother and sister Josh and Joan Burns formed CrossBread, the hugely successful Christian Rap duo from Boronia in Melbourne's outer suburbs back in 2015. The band briefly lit up GodTube in Australia and became Christian hip-hop superstars, with hits such as "It’s Just Jesus" and "A Christian on a Mission (ain’t a Christian to be dissin’)". Over six episodes, their former social media manager, Ken Lim, will dig into the archives to trace their origins working in a donut shop, why it all fell apart so quickly, and their biggest regrets — like why a brother and sister would name their band "CrossBread". The Bible might be the greatest story ever told. But this could easily be the second or third best.

Quick paced, short episodes. A few laugh out loud moments. Good cast. Can imagine the cogs turning as they wrote this parody ;o)
100,000 stars!!!

Creative and sharp. CrossBread is possibly the funniest play on religion I’ve experienced in any form of media. The music is amazing, the lyrics had me choking with laughter. My favorite fiction podcast of all time.
Wow

And I’m not saying that lightly. Every single episode had me laughing so hard tears came to my eyes.
