Ep: 177 - The Psychology of Tiger King - The Psychology of Cults and Tigers


👇Watch Below👇

In this episode Michael Drane, Andrew Baker, and Ashley sit down to talk about the Netflix television show “The Tiger King”. We each share our psychological analysis of Joe Exotic, Carol Baskin, and Doc Antle. We compare each of their zoo cultures to cult criteria. Are they zookeepers or cult leaders? Can narcissism explain the actions of these people? It is a fascinating conversation that we are sure you will enjoy.


About Netflix’s Tiger King

The series focuses on the little-known but deeply interconnected society of big cat conservationists and collectors in America, exploring the private zoos and sanctuaries they’ve set up for these unusual and deadly pets. Some eccentric characters include a former cocaine drug lord running a secret conservation facility, and Bhagavan “Doc” Antle, an animal trainer who founded a 50-acre animal preserve in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, and trains animals for Hollywood films.

The major conflict and emphasis of the series revolves around the contentious, years-long hatred between the flamboyant owner of the Greater Wynnewood Exotic Animal Park, Joe Exotic, and Carole Baskin, owner of Big Cat Rescue.
