Summary

This week, Ash and Dawn of HILF: History I'd Like to Fuck, bring the saga of The People's Temple to an end with the infamous Jonestown Massacre.

The gals wrap things up with Jones' continued spiral into drug addiction and madness, his start of the constant midnight ritual suicide "white night drills", Congressman Leo Ryan's arrival and the fateful day in which the US lost the most civilian lives prior to 9/11, in a mass killing and suicide.

TW: consistent talk about suicide.
