Episode description

Mark and Anna are back!  This episode looks at the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, or Hare Krishnas.  This Hindu derived group found a home in areas like San Francisco during the 70s, but has found sustainable membership in the East.  Anna loves the idea of a cow sanctuary while Mark thinks the amount of daily mahamantras is a bit over the top.  Thanks for the support cult fam, and remember not to drink the kool-aid.
