00:52First, has the Tiger King himself, Joe Exotic, watched the show?

00:55Since he's currently serving 22 years in prison for ordering a hit on his nemesis,

00:59Florida Tiger Sanctuary owner Carol Baskin, the directors say no, he hasn't.

01:04But according to Chaiklin, if the docuseries were made into a scripted movie or TV show,

01:08Joe would like Brad Pitt or David Spade to play him.

01:12She added, he doesn't refer to David Spade as David Spade.

01:15He refers to him as Joe Dirt.

01:16She's a plain-out hypocrite. She literally does everything that I do.

01:26and said that the former zoo owner has been placed in COVID-19 isolation.

01:33but since he recently transferred from a prison with multiple cases, he was placed in isolation for safety.

01:39Passage revealed that he still talks to Joe and speaks to him about three or five times every day.

01:43I do love Joe. He's been there for me through my darkest times, you know, and I'm not just gonna dip out and abandon him.

01:52Finally, the release of Top Gun Maverick has officially been pushed back from late June to Christmas 2020 amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
