The Tales We Tell
Ep. 64: The Kanungu Massacre
Remember when we all thought the world was going to end in the year 2000 because computers didn't know how to count that high? Well, the members or a friendly cult known as the MRTC also thought something similar, but more on the level of a Christian apocalypse. This week, Hannah tells Katy about the infamous Ugandan cult that predicted the end of the world twice, and was kind of right once.
Pour the drinks and settle in for our first official cult episode!
Recipe for the cocktails the girls are enjoying (measure all quantities with your heart):
- White rum
- Grenadine (or maraschino cherry juice)
- Lime juice
- Orange juice
- Pineapple juice
