Behind Bikram

Bikram Choudhury, front, founder of the Yoga College of India and creator and producer of Yoga Expo 2003, leads what organizers hope will be the world's largest yoga class.

Jody Avirgan, host and producer for ESPN's FiveThirtyEight and 30 for 30 podcasts, and Julia Lowrie Henderson, producer and reporter for 30 for 30 and host of ”Bikram," talk about the new podcast, focused on the rise of, and controversy surrounding, Bikram yoga and its founder, Bikram Choudhury.

Caller Erin says at a Bikram yoga training she attended there was a "groupthink mentality," and the founder is "a predator so he knows who's vulnerable prey." @julialhenderson + @jodyavirgan explore stories like this in "Bikram." pic.twitter.com/B5S6SBdGjE
