Summary

Comedy writer and self-proclaimed scammer Gilli Nissim (The Other Two) joins the Con-gregation to help Laci discuss Guru Jagat—aka white woman Katie Griggs—who's the kundalini yoga cult leader and conspiracy theorist subject of the new HBO docuseries "Breath of Fire." But first, Gilli teaches us how to scam your way to cash and prizes by running an old-fashioned scavenger hunt. DISCLAIMER: This episode will dishearten all fans of Yogi Tea and Kettle Chips. Stay schemin'! This story was primarily reported by Hayley Phelan in her 2021 Vanity Fair profile "The Second Coming of Guru Jagat" and the new HBO docuseries "Breath of Fire" based on her writing.
