Jenn and Joe continue our coverage of cult inspired texts with the true story of David Koresh, the Branch Davidians, and the ATF siege on their Waco, TX compound. 

Jenn describes this uniquely American tragedy including Koresh’s violent ascent to power, a government agency desperate to improve their national image, daily conditions at New Mount Carmel, and a 51 day standoff leading to a deadly raid unfolding on live TV.
