Ash and Dawn Brody of the hilarious and insanely informative HILF: History I'd Like to Fuck podcast start to wrap up the Jonestown saga.

The People's Temple members who go to Guyana first soon find out just how hard that jungle is to clear and how much effort and time it will take to grow crops to sustain the congregation. Meanwhile, back in California, Jones makes Jonestown out to be a paradise with propoganda videos that he ordered the members in Guyana to make. He also starts introducing a lot of talk about sacrifice and death at this point. And when a defaming article comes out about him, he quickly moves the rest of the congregation to what would become their Guyanese jungle hell.
