Enjoyed Joel on his couch interviewing some of the characters from the show. They were all pretty much of one mind when it came to thinking that Joe Exotic deserved to be in jail. ---

> [@JcWoman](#): > > The feud between them reminds me a LOT of how people in the animal rescue world are, even mundane ones like dog rescues. Tons of infighting, hypocracy and drama for drama’s sake. Yeah–I’m not going to bother to finish watching this whole thing. The article by Sean Williams last year covered it well enough. These people are getting way too much more attention than they deserve. ---

Watching the Joel Mchale “after-show” and it is interesting enough. Nothing hugely shocking or new, but I would agree with the above poster that it is clear that every single person thinks Joe should be in prison. ---

Nothing hugely shocking or new, but I would agree with the above poster that it is clear that every single person thinks Joe should be in prison. I’d say the only thing that actually surprised me was when Rick Kirkham said that Joe was actually terrified of tigers. “Those 2 tigers you saw him with? The white one was blind, the other one was tranquilized.” ---
