Switched on Pop 1
For this blog post, I decided to write about the Vox Produced Podcast Called Switched on Pop about the episode, one hundred fifty nine. This episode is about Joe Exotic. For those of you who don't know Joe Exotic is the main character of the new Netflix TV show called Tiger King. The show is about Joe Exotic who is the owner of a private farm that primarily focuses on him and his tigers. I have not seen the show but I have heard quite a bit about it from a lot of people. I did not know that in the past Joe had been a country songwriter, and I don't think that anyone who watches his show knows this either. His song I Can't Believe is a song about an event that was a massacre at the Zanesville Zoo in Ohio. It is another private Zoo where the owner was not mentally stable and he left out all of his animals and a lot of them died and so did he. The song is about how afterwards a lot of people were outraged at how little there was to stop and/or prevent something like this from happening since a lot of people could have been killed. They then go on to talk about how the voice in the song does not at all line up with how Joe sounds in real life. They think that Joe had someone else singing because he wants to be bigger than life but nobody takes him seriously.
