Introducing Untold, a new podcast from the special investigations team at the Financial Times. In Untold's first series, The Retreat, host Madison Marriage examines the world of the Goenka network, which promotes a type of intensive meditation. Thousands of people go on Goenka retreats every year. People rave about them. But some go to these meditation retreats, and they suffer. They might feel a deep sense of terror, or a break with reality. And on the other side, they’re not themselves anymore. Untold: The Retreat launches Jan. 24.
