SATURNcast|HISTORYcast -- Massacre at Jonestown Episode

Today I discuss Jim Jones and the People's Temple. Jones, who started as a preacher became more and more insane and paranoid -- eventually leaving the United States with his followers and starting Jonestown. Many people living in Jonestown felt trapped and held hostage. When Congressman Leo Ryan flew to Jonestown to investigate he was shot dead. Jim Jones, in the height of paranoia, convinces hundreds of his followers to kill themselves on Kool-Aid laced with cyanide.I play the recording of the final 25 minutes where Jim Jones convinces his flock that the time is now to kill themselves.I think you will be shocked at how little emotion or protest there actually is.
