He changed the face of Yoga as the world knew it. He was the bad boy of yoga who claimed that Elvis, Michael Jackson and the Beatles were his disciples. He said that Nixon gifted him a Green Card. While his yoga centres around the USA made him millions, his staff were busy covering up the seedy underbelly of sexual abuse, racial abuse and financial mismanagement. Join us in our first two parter of 2022, where we look at the life and lies of Bikram Chowdhary. 

Also, please do not listen to this episode with children around.
