Following the end of the Jesus Chatline, Chilton would reappear in Rumbled Feathers and later in HaulinAss as the eccentric trucker T. Rucker.

History
In a special episode of Jesus Chatline, Richard Burnish and Steve Chilton leave the confines of their broadcasting studio to go storm chasing. Eventually, Steven is struck by lighting exploding his body into pieces leaving only his knees down.This caused Richard to go into a rage of F-sharping. In the following episode, Richard held a black memorial service episode with Stevens body fully intact on the couch in the background. According to Richard, scientists were able to stitch his body back together. During the show, Richard allowed the viewers to call in and speak about their experiences and/or moments with Steven. During the next episode, Steven was alive and well with Richard, this time broadcasting from the San Quentin State Prison. Steven's death by lighting was a great idea in order to raise money for the Church of the Neon Bible by setting a trust fund. As a result of this, the Jews seized all of both Richard and Steven's money. The prison warden gave them 2 hours to be able to pay $58,000, the amount of money they needed to be bailed out. Fortunately, for Steven and Richard, the goal was met.
On October 17th 2018, it was announced that Jay passed away after a year-long battle with cancer.
