Hey all you cool cats and kittens! If we had to sum up the first four months of 2020 into two phrases, two things come to mind: Coronavirus and Tiger King.
Leave it to a documentary about cats to provide an escape from a global pandemic.
Spoiler alert, if you aren’t familiar with Tiger King, it follows a ring of people who collect, sell, show & breed large cats–including one roadside zoo owner, Joe Exotic, who’s currently in prison for a murder-for-hire plot against Carole Baskin (who may or may not have fed her first husband to a tiger, idk)…
Anyway…
Since the documentary hit Netflix, a petition has started to free Joe Exotic from prison. The #FreeJoeExotic movement has even made it to the White House, where a reporter at a coronavirus briefing asked President Donald Trump if he’d ever consider a presidential pardon for ol’ Tiger King Joe. All I’m saying is, Carole Baskin better watch out, because the President said he’d look into it!
