The episode where we discuss one of the biggest losses of American life: Jonestown. This one is infamous and a big case to cover, so we’re going to get right to it, Sarah starting us off with the backstory to the cult leader, Jim Jones. Next Boydston and Lindsey will tackle the rise of the People’s Temple, Jonestown, and the tragic end and mass suicide. We’re throwing up all the warnings, because this is a difficult and sensitive topic, so trigger warning for suicide, child abuse, etc.

If you’re thinking about suicide, are worried about a friend or loved one, or would like emotional support, the Lifeline network is available 24/7 across the United States by calling 1-800-273-8255.
