Weird story: One of his helpers/fiancé? is on my FB. But I never saw any of the show and I had this guy at least a year before the show. Just from another friend. And one day my wife was talking about the show and about one guy who wouldn't be on camera. And my FB friend is gay and worked at a tiger place in OK and was always lamenting his ex.
I had no clue. But he's a southern gay hippie redneck who tends animals in OK and at one time was Joe's either fiancé or husband. It was a very surreal day when I realized this guy had talked about that shit for a year or two and then BAM! I get what everyone is talking about.
