61: Jim Jones and the People’s Temple, Part 4 - Tiger, Take Me Away!

Make sure you have used the latrine hole and buckle up tight, because we are putting the pedal to the metal in this rickety People's Temple bus. Destination? Jonestown! In this super-sized penultimate episode in our People's Temple series, we explore in-depth the destitution plaguing Jonestown, the daily physical and mental abuse, and the unrest which followed. With defections, political attention, and contingency plans being formulated, the pieces are starting to fall into place for the devastating end. With special thanks to the Jonestown Institute, featured throughout the episode are original tape recordings which bring you as close as possible to the horrible conditions in Guyana, and the worsening health and madness of Jim Jones.
