Drinking The Kool-Aid With Jim Jones

from Liar City

Jonestown, Guyana. A 3,500 acre commune in the middle of a jungle, was supposed to be a socialist paradise on earth for Jim Jones and his many followers. Instead, it became a metaphor for all the reasons why you should never put your life in someone else's hands. Join us as we detail the history of The People's Temple, Jim Jones, and Leo Ryan -- the congressman who came to South America for answers, but found something much, much worse waiting for him.
