Kaydra dives into another listener request, the story of Rajneeshpuram, a cult in Oregon led by a sex guru named Bhagwan Shree Rashneesh, now known as Osho. The Rashneeshees are responsible for the largest bioterrorism attack in U.S. history to date. Food poisoning, attempted assassinations, arson, practical jokes, fancy cars...this story has it all!
