Tiger King 2 Is Coming‪!‬ Just the Gist

Gisteners / Glisteners, the trailer for Tiger King 2 dropped last week, & oh my CATNESS it has caused a commotion. We're serving the gist of what you need to know about the lawsuit Carole Baskin (friend of the podcast) immediately filed against Netflix to try to stop the release of the new series, & also serving the gist of the most important docos you NEED to watch before Tiger King 2 lands. Consider it your homework for the next two weeks 🙂 And you'll successfully complete one portion of your assignment simply by listening to this episode, which revisits the story of Ron and Joy Holiday: The Cat Dancers. Before Sigfried and Roy, & long before Joe Exotic, they were THE big cat performers whose story ended in tragedy. Think of it as a prequel to Tiger King, complete with throuple, tigers, sequins, lions, lycra, panthers, perms... & only one survivor. 

The original Cat Dancer episode starts at around 5:22 and ends at roughly 63:45.And here are some useful links to help you complete your homework: WATCH: The Tiger King 2 trailer (before it's taken down) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pT4NYto3abMWATCH: The Conservation Game (on Stan Australia) https://play.stan.com.au/programs/3069587 WATCH: Louis Theroux: Shooting Joe Exotic (on ABC iView in Australia) https://iview.abc.net.au/show/louis-theroux-shooting-joe-exotic?utm_source=google_feed&utm_medium=syndicated_content&utm_campaign=iview_google_feed WATCH: Louis Theroux: America's Most Dangerous Pets https://play.stan.com.au/programs/346972 LISTEN: Wondery's 2020 podcast series on Joe Exotic https://wondery.com/shows/joe-exotic/ READ: about Carole Baskin (Queen of the Gliteners) & her lawsuit against Netflix https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2021/nov/02/carole-baskin-sues-netflix-for-using-footage-of-her-in-tiger-king-2 And if you can, try to watch the documentary "Cat Dancers" about Ron and Joy Holiday, it's gobsmacking!
