From Know Your Meme:
Jesus Chatline was a live-streamed webcast series hosted by Richard Burnish and Steven Chilton,
who promoted a fictional branch of Christianity called “The Church of the Neon Bible" as a satire of
American televangelist public access shows, that ran from 2011 to 2012. The show was known for being
inundated with prank phone calls from users on 4chan's /b/ (random) board.
Dustin (Richard) and Jay (Steven) formed a community with the viewers of the show, hosting a Facebook page, Minecraft Server, and a Counter Strike server, among others. The show often featured recurring callers and characters, such as Randall 'Baby' Stevens, Leroy Sinclair, and Hans Peter Schwanzlutcher. Some broadcasts would feature an 'after-show', where the hosts would hang out and talk with the viewers out of character. For extra comedy and to blur the line between reality and fiction, the two would often make commercials promoting their fictional church/show, including one that claimed they would soon be building their very own church.
