Forty years ago, on Nov. 18, 1978, 914 members of a 'utopian' society deep in the Guyana jungle, known as Jonestown, drank a lethal elixir of Flavor-Aid and cyanide. Tim Carter was in the inner circle of its charismatic leader, Jim Jones. He escaped into the jungle. This is his story.

Featured Article: Delve into the Darker Side of Human Nature with the 15 Best Podcasts About Cults


Cults are fascinating. There’s something curiosity-inducing about stories of ordinary people who get wrapped up in groupthink that quickly veers into dangerous territory. Part of the appeal is because we think it could never happen to us, even though we suspect, deep down, that it absolutely could. These listens explore the nature of cults, the figures who lead them, and the followers who have been lured into their orbits.

I listen to a lot of podcasts. I have really enjoyed true story ones, such as Murder in Hollywoodland and Bear Brook. This listen is very similar in style and presentation to those.

I have always been interested in Jonestown. I was four years old when it happened, but I can remember seeing news reports of it when it occurred.

I did not have any expectations for this work, but I really enjoyed it. Very well done.

My only problem with it is it left me wanting more!

I want more!

This was the story of one of the few survivors of the Jonestown massacre. Not exploitative, but touching and somber. Very well done. Difficult sections were handled tastefully and it really gave you a sense of why people joined, and how good intensions went bad with the paranoia of Jim Jones.

I’m obsessed with the Jonestown tragedy, so anytime I see something new about it I’m all over it. The horror of it keeps me riveted, and no matter how many times I hear the story I am shocked at what happened. I have not heard Tim Carters version of this. Thanks, Audible for the podcast.

True evil.

This was hard to listen to, but I was a teenager when it happened so I wanted to know, to fill on the blank.
The narrator did a fantastic job. I kept forgetting it wasn't the man who lived through it. I hope this story helps to be a reminder as to how people can be.

Such a Terrible Tragedy That Still Echoes

This was a great podcast. The story is heart breaking but it was told with so much details about what was really happening within Jonestown.

AMAZING STORY
