Can you believe it's been 20 episodes already?! 20 delicious episodes of the greatest podcast about documentaries ever! Accept this offering, oh mighty Herzog. Jonni and Bob delve into the world of spiritual motivation and its hazards as it follows around one troublesome/troubled guru with a serial killer name in the 2016 CNN film "Enlighten Us" by director Jenny Carchman. Streamable as of this posting on Netflix. James Arthur Ray (aka JAR) hosted a retreat (for $10,000) where three people lost their lives in a sweat lodge incident he was hosting. After serving time for two years and getting out, what has JAR taken from this experience? Is any of it about the people who lost their lives, or are they just stepping stones in JAR's story? More importantly...who farted?
