Welcome to Cults Anon, the podcast where we talk about cults from the perspective of avoidance and recovery!

Join me this week for a frank discussion of one of the most notorious cult-related incidents in American history widely remembered as "The Jonestown Massacre". We will examine the possible psychology and motivations behind cult leader Jim Jones while reviewing the escalating series of events that culminated in the heartbreaking tragedy of the Jonestown Massacre where over nine hundred people lost their lives in a single day. By accurately remembering and acknowledging the past we can hope to learn vital lessons about how to prevent similar tragedies in the present. Listener Discretion is advised.
