One Small Step For Man, One Giant Leap of Faith for a Terrorist Doomsday Cult: The Tokyo Subway Sarin Attack

Details Are Sketchy

In this episode, Kiki covers Aum Shinrikyo and the 1995 Tokyo Subway Sarin Attack, while Rachel brings us the disappearance of Jewel Paul Wheeler. Then we have a brief chat about what we've been reading and watching and doing.
Side note: We were drinking Boba Tea while recording, so apologies for the slurping noises.
Our next book is "Hell's Half Acre: The Untold Story of the Benders, a Serial Killer Family on the American Frontier" by Susan Jonusas, which we will discuss in episode 16.
