TSFU PRESENTS: Yucky Yogis- Ep. 2: Kundalini Yoga

That's So Fcked Up

This episode was originally released as a Patreon-only episode, but it was so good we had to share with everyone!
Today, Ash teams up with friend of TSFU, Trevin from the podcast Live, Laugh, Larceny. Ash dives into the dark side of Kundalini Yoga - from the shady beginnings with Yogi Bhajan to the drama following the death of its second leader, Guru Jagat (aka Katie Griggs from Colorado).
Once again, "it's not just yoga you guys!"
(Wait, what? You don't have the Not Just Yoga shirt? Quick, get yours here!)
