From the team that brought you Texas Twiggy comes Gooned, a podcast about the Troubled Teen Industry.

Gooned is a deep dive into an industry with blood on its hands. 

The Troubled Teen Industry (TTI) is a network of profit-incentivized behavior modification facilities for youth, ranging from wilderness programs to therapeutic boarding schools. The decades-old industry uses predatory tactics to capitalize on families in crisis and victimize hundreds of thousands of children and teens every year.
