Jeff Guinn, author of such books as Manson: The Life and Times of Charles Manson and The Road to Jonestown: Jim Jones and Peoples Temple joins the show to talk about his latest work, Waco which features new interviews with federal agents and surviving Branch Davidians to revisit the 1993 confrontation, which left scores of people dead, including more than 20 children.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In what is quite possibly Leaving Eden Podcast's most requested episode ever, Sadie and Gavi discuss Jonestown, The People's Temple, and the massacre that occurred there in November of 1978. TW: In general we talk about a lot of potentially triggering topics on this show, including but not limited to suicide and mental health, racism, misogyny, PTSD and PTSD symptoms, child abuse, mental, physical, and sexual abuse, and spiritual abuse including guilt, shame, and fear. In most episodes we'll mention at least a few of these topics, but we try very hard to avoid graphic detail unless it's relevant to the story we're telling, and we do our best to give the audience a heads-up before going into detail on any of these topics. In this episode, of course we are going to be discussing many deaths by suicide, the majority of which were coerced or forced, and the death of many children, but we think that's obvious from the episode title and the topic we're discussing. We are also going to be talking about a lot of very twisted humiliation rituals, control and brainwashing and blackmail rituals, this goes a bit deeper than we were initially aware of. Of course we will give you a heads up before we drop any graphic details, but as usual we are going to err on the side of not glorifying abuse and letting listeners seek out the darker details if they want to.

Hello listeners!! I got a new microphone but there is still some feedback and it amplified background noises. I will figure it out for future episodes so bare with me. Why did hundreds of people willingly follow a madman to their deaths and murder their children? This episode is the first in a three part series on the Jonestown Massacre as I try to examine why people would do that. What was it about him? How could they look past his abusive controlling behavior and follow him? How did he prevent them from leaving? Those are some of the questions I hope to answer.As for sources for this episode consist mostly of two books:The Road to Jonestown: Jim Jones and Peoples Temple By Jeff GuinnA Thousand Lives: The Untold Story of Hope, Deception, and Survival at Jonestown By Julia ScheeresSome information comes from documentaries but they discuss little about Jim Jones up to the move to California so I will include them in the other episodes source list. My email address is DeathWalksWIthUsPodcast@gmail.com email me questions to include in a Q and A, or tweet them at me my twitter thing is @walkswithus or post it on the Facebook group page. Don't message them to me as I don't think I will get them.

La Guyana Nord Occidentale è un territorio difficile, caratterizzata da pianure paludose, con montagne che si ergono ad ovest e nella parte meridionale, al confine con il Brasile. Un clima tropicale, con estati afose e inverni ostici a fare da sfondo ad un panorama socioeconomico ben al di sotto della soglia di povertà.Un posto tutt'altro che tranquillo, che raggiunse l'apice del suo splendore nel 1978 quando più di 900 persone si tolsero la vita nel suicidio di massa più popolare mai documentato dai media prima di allora. Una tragedia a tinte fosche, che secondo alcuni presenterebbe numerose criticità. La storia che sto per raccontare ha forti connotati psicologici, ed è stata largamente studiata al tempo prendendo come punto di partenza una delle opere più famose di Freud, che si dice ogni leader mondiale abbia letto prima di divenire importante. Si tratta di psicologia delle masse e analisi dell'io, un libro che approfondisce alcune dinamiche comportamentali utili a comprendere e reindirizzare a piacimento la volontà delle folle.Un vero e proprio trattato sui meccanismi psicologici che permetterebbero ad un qualunque leader carismatico di chiedere e veder esaudito ogni suo desiderio, ogni sua irreparabile follia.E chissà che forse anche Jim Jones, il leader criminale del tempio del popolo, non l'abbia avidamente letto.

As part of our mini-series where we read books on a topic that we tend to associate with one of our book friends, this week, we dive into one of Corene's interests: cults. Books mentioned in this episode: Cult X by Fuminori Nakamura, The Maidens by Alex Michaelides, The Road to Jonestown: Jim Jones and Peoples Temple by Jeff Guinn, and Salvation Day by Kali Wallace. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/keepitfictional/message

On Thursday's Houston Matters: Many of us will travel over Thanksgiving and the holidays that follow. How might it impact the state of the pandemic? We talk it over with Dr. James McDeavitt from Baylor College of Medicine. Also this hour: On this date in 1978, 900 people died at The Peoples Temple in Jonestown, a settlement in the South American jungle of Guyana, in an act carried out by followers of cult leader Jim Jones. The shocking event had a Houston connection, as our Michael Hagerty learned in his 2018 conversation with writer Jeff Guinn, author of The Road to Jonestown: Jim Jones and The Peoples Temple. Then, there's been a lot of attention and hand-wringing lately over what public schools teach about sexuality and race. For example, books in Texas schools came under scrutiny recently because they cover some perceived uncomfortable subject matter. But aren't we regularly encouraged to get outside our comfort zones? We discuss the importance of sometimes being uncomfortable in our everyday lives. And we talk with Texas bee expert Jack Neff.

In this episode I cover the leader of the famous cult "Jonestown" Jim Jones. I go over his history and his manipulation tactics. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/wtpsychology/support

Dimitri and Khalid talk with writer/researcher Joe Green (@JoeGreenJFK) about the kaleidoscopic madness and crippled epistemologies surrounding Jonestown and The People's Temple, the psyop against synthesizing socialism and religion, Jones' hatred of the Nation of Islam, his lifelong friendship with CIA torturer Dan Mitrione, his connections with the San Francisco Democratic machine, the curious involvement & survival of JFK assassination expert Mark Lane, copious evidence of MK-Ultra-adjacent experimentation, and centuries of dark colonialist intrigue in Guyana.

In the third part of our deep dive into Jonestown and the events leading up to the catastrophic mass casualty event associated with it, we dive deeper into the work Jones did in Indianapolis from the time Peoples Temple was officially formed in their new building all the way up to their move to California. This is likely the halfway mark because it's looking like our "4 parter" is morphing into a 6 part deep dive. Source for this episode is Jim Guinn's Book, ' The Road to Jonestown: Jim Jones and the Peoples Temple'

In the second part of our deep dive into Jonestown and the events leading up to the catastrophic mass casualty event associated with it, we dive deeper into Jim Jones early life from high school, through college, and up until he formed his first church and moved it into a permanent home in Bloomington.  Source for this episode is Jim Guinn's Book, ' The Road to Jonestown: Jim Jones and the Peoples Temple'

Welcome to part 1 of a 4 parter on The People’s Temple, it’s founder Jim Jones, and the supposedly idyllic town called Jonestown Jim Jones convinced his followers to follow him to in Guyana. As many of you know we’re located in Indiana, so there are some localish implications with this story that begin in Indiana, transferred to San Francisco to set up it’s home base, and finished in the Peoples Temple Agricultural Project, commonly referred to as Jonestown, all the way to South America, where the members of the People’s Temple, a religious organization that began with Jim Jones preaching about Jesus and social reform in 1955 and ended with the mass murder of 918 people in Jonestown on November 18, 1978, in the single largest mass casualty event involving US citizens at the time.

Show Notes Episode 289: Reverend Jones, You Better Watch Your Speed Part Two of the Early Life of Reverend Jim Jones This week Host Dave Bledsoe mixes up a mean punch of Flavor Aid and Everclear calling it the Jonestown Surprise and gets kicked out of Friendsgiving.  (again) On the show this week we wrap up with part two of Jim Jones the early years much to our surprise.  (We really thought he would run a best of show this week! But again, IS there really such a thing?) Along the way we track the rise of Jim Jones in California from Midwestern Cult Leader new in town to a mover and shaker in California politics! (He was Rosalyn Carter's pen pal!)  We learn how the Peoples Temple got small town California to accept them (money) and how Jim Jones got big city politicians to embrace him.  (votes).  Then we see the slow spiral that leads Reverend Jones and his followers to their ends in a snake infested jungle compound by off brand fruit drink and cyanide.  (Never say we aren't a fun podcast for the kids!  Actually, ALWAYS say that!) Our returning sponsor this week is Second Hand Messiah, for your budget messianic needs!  We open the show with Jim doing a little faith healing and close with Claudia Hoyser urging Mr. Jones to just slow down.

Show Notes Episode 288: Pass Me A Bottle, Reverend Jones This week Host Dave Bledsoe feels the power of the spirit move him as he finishes off a bottle of grain alcohol and passes out on the street in front of his building. (again) On the show this week we mark the 42nd Anniversary of the Jonestown Massacre with our trademark brand of good taste and compassion. (Meaning very little of either) Along the way we look back to the childhood of the biggest mass murderer in American history and tell you all the GOOD things he did in his life! (No really, he did them and we tell you about them!) We learn a lot about why Dave yells so much on the show. (Turns out, genetics!) Then we dive deep into the early days of the Peoples Temple, Reverend Jones' travels and his fervent belief in Communism. (Again, it was really doing some good when it began, later not so much!) Finally answer the question on so many people's minds about how Jim Jones was able to get people to follow him like they did. (If you are a regular church goer, you will NOT like the answer.) Finally we wrap up part one of this two parter with Pastor Dave passing around the offering plate. (Tiny bottles of liquor are perfectly acceptable in lieu of money.)  Our Sponsor this week is Flavor Aid who are perfectly cool with you saying “drink the Kool Aid”. We open the show with local news of the massacre and close with Drew Hale hanging with Mister Jones.  Show Theme: https://www.jamendo.com/track/421668/prelude-to-common-sense The Show on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheHell_Podcast The Show on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/whatthehellpodcast/ www.whatthehellpodcast.com Give us your money on Patreon https://www.patreon.com/Whatthehellpodcast The Show Line: 347 687 9601 Closing Music: https://youtu.be/g_qUZ_QjIo8 We are a proud member of the Seltzer Kings Podcast Network! http://seltzerkings.com/ Citations Needed: The Road to Jonestown: Jim Jones and Peoples Temple https://www.amazon.com/Road-Jonestown-Jones-Peoples-Temple/dp/1476763828 Last Podcast on the Left Episodes 300-304 https://www.lastpodcastontheleft.com/episodes/2018/1/12/episode-300-jonestown-part-i-everyone-in-the-world-is-my-friend KGO San Francisco News Scene 1978 Jonestown https://youtu.be/OapPeL-69Ns Wikipedia Jim Jones https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Jones Alternative Considerations of Jonestown & Peoples Temple https://jonestown.sdsu.edu/ NINE PLACES TO HIDE https://classic.esquire.com/article/1962/01/01/nine-places-to-hide Learn more about your ad choices.

Jim began his career as a pastor from Indiana who believed in social justice. He eventually morphed into a despot who caused the ruin of countless lives and is the origin story for the expression “drank the Kool-Aid.”  Then Sonia talks about a person related to the Jonestown event who is NOT a Creep.  Sources for this episode:   Salon (David Talbot): Jim Jones' Sinister Grip on San Francisco Season of the Witch by David Talbot Wikipedia: Jim Jones The Road to Jonestown: Jim Jones & the People’s Temple by Jeff Guinn Cult City: by Daniel Flynn Jonestown: Terror in the Jungle (CNN) San Diego State University Jim Jones online archive     Be sure to subscribe wherever you get your podcasts and you will never miss an episode.  Also, be sure to follow us on social media!

Es ist eine der schrecklichsten Massen-Selbsttötungen in der Geschichte der Menschheit: In dem Sektenort Jonestown im südamerikanischen Guyana begingen am 18. November 1978 ganze 909 US-Bürger Selbstmord. Bis 9/11 war dies der traurigen Rekord als das größte Massaker der USA. Dabei begann alles so friedlich: Mit dem Wunsch eine bessere Welt aufzubauen - das Paradies auf Erden - traten Tausende von Menschen in den „Peoples Temple“ ein, auf Deutsch auch Volkstempel genannt. Sie folgten Sektenführer Jim Jones und seinen kranken Regeln über Jahre hinweg, bis nach Südamerika. Letztendlich bis in den Tod. Jim Jones hatte seinen Anhängern den Massensuizid befohlen. Aber wie konnte es dazu kommen? Sind alle wirklich freiwillig gestorben? Und wie überhaupt funktioniert so eine Sekte?Leo und Linn sprechen in der dritten Folge über das Jonestown Massaker und eine der größten Sekten Amerikas. Dazu gibt es für Leo Tee und für Linn Whiskey. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Cult leader Jim Jones used a dangerous mix of lies, abuse, and manipulation to control the members of his People’s Temple. The hold he had over his cult was so severe he convinced the members to move into the middle of the jungles of Guyana, AKA Jonestown. But, as the events unraveled so too did Jones. Failing health and a drug addiction fueled his craziness and led to a US Congressman flying to Guyana to see things for himself. The ensuing events led to the tragic murder of the Congressman and much of his party, then culminated in in the deaths of over 900 people at Jonestown…over a 3rd of which were kids. Jones convinced his followers to drink Flavor-Aid laced with Cyanide. Some drank of their own volition, some were forced, while many (including children) were injected. How does a diverse church group who set out to build a paradise on Earth, a Utopian society free from racism and hatred, end up unleashing hell on Earth that culminated in one of the greatest crimes in our modern times? We dive in deep this week. Plus, Conspiracy has decided he’s going to be on Shark Tank, in an unrelated note he also decides he need to go to the aquarium, and finally Pecker, Kevin, and Chris Marcum all take a trip back to the lower 4th to finish this crazy topic. All of that and more on the podcast that has never met Jim Jones, but we know a guy who knows Jim Belushi - Hysteria 51.Special thanks to this week’s research sources:Research Assistant – Raymond Walden IVBooksRaven: The Untold Story of the Rev.

This week on Sinica, Kaiser and Jeremy chat with Christina Larson, a science and technology reporter for the Associated Press, about a major story that her team broke: the Chinese scientist Hè Jiànkuí 贺建奎 announcement that he had edited the genes of embryos conceived in vitro, and that twin girls had been born, making them — if his claims are true — the world’s first gene-edited babies. We look at the overwhelmingly critical response to this announcement in the Chinese scientific community, among ordinary people, and among officials, as well as what this may mean for the ethical landscape in Chinese science. Please note that this show was taped in December 2018, and since then, He Jiankui has resurfaced, claiming that he’s doing just fine — so far. 15:20: The process by which He Jiankui conducted his research raised concerns throughout scientific circles worldwide. Christina was among a team of Associated Press reporters that spoke with the supposed founder of the hospital HarMoniCare, who allowed He to circumvent submitting his research to an ethical review board. “He told us, quite proudly, that he wasn’t a doctor or scientist, but a hospital property developer.” 24:34: The dodgy science behind a misguided experiment. Christina lists the litany of failures in He’s methodology, principal among them: the genes that were intended to be edited. “But there’s also evidence from the information Hè presented…that only half of the intended genes were edited in one of the two twins.” 31:10: When it comes to medicine, particularly ethically questionable experiments like the one He conducted last year, the stakes are higher. "So, ideally, scientists have peer review and ethical review boards, and technology companies have trade secrets and product launches in beta, because presumably the stakes are lower if it's a social media app. But things get messier in medicine when it's a life-or-death technology. You can't release something like that in beta." Recommendations: Jeremy: The Selfish Gene, by Richard Dawkins, a gene-centered story of evolution. Christina: She Has Her Mother's Laugh: The Powers, Perversions, and Potential of Heredity, by Carl Zimmer, a book on genetic inheritance; also, a story by Christina’s colleagues at the Associated Press on tracing products made in Uyghur internment camps: US sportswear traced to factory in China’s internment camps. Kaiser: The Road to Jonestown: Jim Jones and Peoples Temple, by Jeff Guinn, a dispassionate story of the horrifically tragic story of Jim Jones and the Jonestown Massacre.
