Madonna and the Kabbalah Craze (with Rachel Fisher and Desi Jedeikin)
There was a moment in history where it seemed like every celeb was dabbling in Kabbalah - the secretive spiritual practice that set up camp at the bottom of Beverly Hills. Madonna and her many famous friends were all wearing red bracelets and talking about awareness and balance, but for all the press Kabbalah got, Kabbalah’s darker side was pushed into the shadows. Joining Tess to talk through this very LA fad are Rachel Fisher (@childlikeempress) and Desi Jedeikin (@desijed), hosts of the Hollywood Crime Scene podcast. For more reading on Kabbalah and the IRS inquiries into it, check out this LA Times piece.
