BB04 - Jeremy Camp 12/06/2014

BB04 - Jeremy Camp In Episode 4 of Bus Banter, Disciple has a great hangout time with the legendary, muscular Jeremy Camp.

It's the holidays anyway - who has time to listen to all five of us yelling and cackling over each other? /episode/index/show/busbanter/id/3814783
