Hey there cool cats and kittens! Guess who's back? The Tiger King and his much reviled queen, Carole Baskin! But if you're sick and tired of this tale of greed, rancid meat pizza, and fashions more upsetting than animal exploitation, don't worry. Dateline's got you. This episode is 100% about The Mank. Sir Manky with the Hanky is bringing his A+ snark and smirks while interviewing fellow royalty Joe Exotic from prison, and throwing twitter shade at Carole Baskin. Mankiewicz dives into the alligator pond headfirst, looking into the mysterious disappearance of Carole's husband Don Lewis. Is he in Costa Rica? Was he fed to the tigers? Did he tune in from beyond the grave (or the beach) to catch Carole's leopard-printed performance on Dancing With The Stars? Join K & K for their discussion of coded messages, the brilliance of Milli Vanilli, and Tik Tok parody videos. Listen as they two-step around with their words, trying very hard to not get sued by Carole Baskin! Did they succeed? Enjoy this very special animal kingdom edition of A Date with Dateline to find out!

Official Description from NBCU: Investigating the 1997 disappearance of Don Lewis, husband of big cat rights activist Carole Baskin ("Tiger King"). Josh Mankiewicz reports.
