	Description:		Ecumenical councils will be called centuries from now to decide if this episode is canonical. In one of our rare tangents from the God Cast's purpose of exploring Christian Punk, Jonny gives a breakdown of the pyrotechnical-spectacle ministry that was The Power Team. How did breaking blocks, bars, and handcuffs save tens of thousands of former Soviet Union Russians? What would Roland Barthes have to say about blowing up a hot water bottle like a balloon until it bursts? Will we succeed in our attempt to troll our academic listeners by mispronouncing 'Barthes'? Then we look into the Mysterious Ways that led evangelical minister Eddie Dalcour to be both a member of The Power Team, and to play bisexual porn star Reed Rothschild in Paul Thomas Anderson's precursor to Boogie Nights. All this and more in an episode so great you'll want to start an offshoot cult based on it.
