In the chaotic aftermath of the Jonestown massacre, one artifact continues to defy explanation: Tape Q875, the so-called “November 19 mystery tape.” Discovered among hundreds of recordings recovered from the scene, Q875 is unique as it appears to have been recorded after the mass murder-suicide when every resident of Jonestown was presumed dead. Who made this recording—and why?

Its static-filled audio and eerie, found-footage quality have fueled decades of speculation. Some believe it was created by the CIA or accidentally made by the GDF. Others claim to hear the voices of Jim Jones or Maria Katsaris long after their confirmed deaths. Is Q875 a final transmission from beyond the grave, a covert operation, or a planted act of psychological warfare?

In this episode of our true crime audio documentary, we’re joined by an anonymous contributor with a bold theory, one he believes finally solves the mystery of Q875. Join us as we examine one of the most controversial artifacts tied to the Jonestown tragedy, and challenge the official timeline of November 18, 1978.
