Episode 89: The People's Temple Cult Part 1

JIMOTHY HOW DARE YOU?? We are talking about The People's Temple/Jonestown this week and it is as wild as I've always thought. Jim Jones took a vulnerable group of people, preached equality, and abused them in every way. In Part 1, we talk all about the temple and their life before Guyana. Next week, we'll be back to talk all about the Jonestown settlement and the horrifying end.
