If I could sum up Tiger King in a single word, it would be ‘MERICA!
What a wild ride, hey?
There are many skeletons coming out the closet in the fallout of the show hitting Netflix (none of them Don Lewis), including Joe Exotic’s niece saying that her uncle is “100 times worse” than the series portrays him.
Frozen tiger cubs, sex videos, darting monkeys – it’s all there.
Then there’s Carole Baskin and her Big Cat Rescue operation being torn apart by experts in the field, which shouldn’t really come as a great shock.
But what about the main man himself? Well, Joe Exotic is currently serving a 22-year-sentence at the Federal Medical Center Fort Worth, a prison in Texas.
Somebody from Netflix spoke with him on March 22, although the clip was only released on April 3.
If the inmate is to be believed, and that takes some faith, he’s done with Carole Baskin:

Riiiight.
Something tells me these two will forever be inextricably linked, and Joe Exotic will never, ever give up talking about Baskin.
Hey, just for the hell of it, here’s the full music video for Joe Exotic’s ode to Carole Baskin, titled ‘Here Kitty Kitty’.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but that ain’t Joe singing. No bother, because the video is still worth watching:
