The Tiger Queen ft. Carole Baskin

In 2020, you more than likely were part of over 64 Million households that watched the Netflix Docudrama called "Tiger King". And if you didn't watch it, then probably you heard about it on the internet, as it seemed that everyone was talking about it non-stop there. When it was done, Joe Exotic was a minor celebrity and Carole Baskin was being crucified on the internet as a villain. We all know what happened to Joe Exotic after the show was done, and might even read this from his prison cell. He'll have plenty of time over the next 15 or so years before he can apply for release for his murder for hire plot against Carole. But what about Carole? Thats where this podcast picks up. We talk with Carole about her life after Joe Exotic and the airing of the Tiger King. We talk about how she overcame it, how she moved past thousand and thousands of death threats. We talk about why she went on Dancing with the Stars and what she hoped to gain from that. ANd lastly we talk about the work to stop Big Cat breeding and cub/kitten petting at these Tiger and Lion Farms all over the United States, and why this legislation is so very important. She wants to put herself out of business ... find out why.
