Jim Jones: Jonestown Primer

Jenn and Joe are spending November talking about cults on the Main Feed. First up: Jim Jones and The Peoples Temple (note the lack of apostrophe), the cult that claimed the highest number of American civilian deaths until 9/11. Who was Jones? Was he always a bad person? And how many people actually died in the infamous Jonestown massacre in Guyana? Wanna connect with the show?
