We're baaaaa-aaaaackkkkk! This week the gals kick off season 8 chatting about Doc Antle, cult leader and possibly the most villainous character from the hit Netflix series Tiger King. Jeepers Creepers!
If you watched Tiger King on Netflix in 2020, you probably remember the a**hole with a long ponytail who constantly dresses like he's on safari and surrounds himself with skinny women who like like Jane from Tarzan, constantly toting tigers on leashes. That man was Doc Antle, owner of Myrtle Beach Safari, the "zoo" that inspired Joe Exotic to open The Greater Wynnewood Exotic Animal Park. Antle started off as a magician who got real tight with famous Guru Swami Satchidananda Saraswati, and became somewhat of a celebrity at Swami's Yogaville compound in Virginia. He began claiming to be a doctor and enlightened being, amassing followers and abusing teenage girls, and things only got crazier from there. Antle is a notorious abuser of big cats, but today's story more focuses on Antle himself and the cult that he runs, but calls a "wildlife preserve".
