okay can you hear me joe yeah i can okay great great great man i'm so glad to have you on i know that uh we don't have a lot of time uh how long do we have joe 15 minutes 15 minutes well first of all let me say thank you so much uh for what you did during the pandemic i mean the whole world was coming apart i think you were the glue that kept us together. Yeah, I wish I could take credit for that, man. I would have destroyed my entire life. Yeah? Yeah. Well, I tell you what, everybody is rooting for you and is wanting good things for you, I'll tell you that. So, tell me this,

I know that you have got a lot going on right now. What are you working on as far as a pardon? You've asked for a new pardon again, right? Right, right. And according to casinos.com, they're taking bets on who he's going to pardon in the first 108 days or 100 days. Yeah.

And I'm number eight. So let's keep our fingers crossed. Well, we'll work to get it to number one. And I know that you mentioned that you would like to have a cabinet position. I would. He's already filled the director of agriculture. I would like to be the director of the Federal Fish and Wildlife. Yeah, man, that would probably be amazing to have you in that position. I mean, do you really want to do that?

Well, you know, somebody has to change it, and somebody's got to stop this before more people end up in jail for nothing like I am. Right, no doubt about it, we understand that. What are your attorneys doing meanwhile in lieu of a pardon to get you out of there? Are they still working diligently

to find a way to get you out? Well, you know I'm on appeal right now to overturn my conviction with all that new evidence that is at the joexoticofficial.com website. Yeah, and that's where everybody needs to go to see more about it is the, you know, Joe Exotic Official website, right? Yeah. Okay, good, good, good. Now, tell me about, well, first of all, let me say congratulations on your engagement. Well, I appreciate it.

I appreciate it. I just hope I can keep him in America or I'm going to have to leave America. Is that right? Well, so when, what is his release date? May. Okay. He gets out in May. All right.

Yeah. Yeah. And so, you know, you guys, what's the plan as far as a wedding, things like that? Are you going to do that in prison before he goes or what? We're trying. Yeah. Is it hard to be able to, I mean, do you get a lot of time together there? We spend almost all day together, yeah.

Oh, that's beautiful. That's awesome, man. Yeah. Yeah. Now, go ahead. Go ahead. Oh, I was saying, it's pretty open there for you. It's a, you know, where you guys can interact, uh, all the time.

Yeah. See now what a lot of people don't understand, especially Carol Baskin, because she gloats that she has to be in a cage. Um, the place that I'm at is a medical center. Okay. And there's no, no jail sales or bars or doors. It's like an open dorm college campus.

Okay. Okay. So, you know, more like you're, you're just stuck on a college campus and can't leave. Yeah. Yeah.

Okay. Okay. Tell me about it. Cause I know that your business team is working overtime because I saw in the news that you were just now releasing an AI porn clone. How did that even come about? I didn't even know of such a thing. This company just called me and asked me if I would represent them.

Yeah. So I was like, hell yeah. I'll do anything to make money right now because I'm broke as fuck. I hear you. I hear you. Can anybody send money via your website or on your books? I said, can anybody send you money? right oh i think we just lost joey a few moments later hey that's all right joe i understand man i figured something probably happened

well there's 300 people and six phones and fucking they argue with their wives and they beat the phone so the fucking cord court showed up. Oh damn, man. That's crazy, buddy. That's crazy. Man, it is. So you were talking about,

uh, your AI porn clone. You said they called you because, uh, you know, they were interested in you representing them. Yeah. And so,

so, you know, they took, you know, back in 2013, I used to be a model for Playgirl. Yeah. They took some of those pictures and cloned me.

And then, you know, I had to call and read a script. And that's how they got my voice. Okay. So whatever it takes to pay the lawyers. No, no doubt about it. I mean, I would do the same thing if they called me and I'm not even in prison. You know what I mean? Oh, no doubt about it.

I mean, I would do the same thing if they called me and I'm not even in prison. You know what I mean? You know, by the way, I want to tell you this before, you know, anything else might interrupt us. I was talking to my producer. And so, you know, we have that line with voicemail. Anytime you want to leave us a message, you can leave as many as you want, Joe. We will play them over the air to get the word out on anything you need. So just know that's available to you, and I will play every single voicemail you send us, and you can do it anytime that you want.

When you say over the air, what are you doing? Well, as far as on our show, you know, releasing it online, releasing it on air, just getting the word out for you. So if you ever need to leave a voicemail, if you just during the week think of something or something happens and you want to get the word out. All the time. Well, feel free to leave us voicemails and we'll run it every day like a segment. I don't care, Joe. I want to get the word out.

What's the name of your show? It's Patrick and the People. It's on TV or just the internet? No, it's everywhere, man. It streams live. It's on Audible. It's on Amazon. It's on Spotify. It streams in about 30 locations.

We are literally all over the place, Joe. I hear a lot of people trying to call you once a week. Yeah, man. Hell, I'll try and call you like once a week. Yeah, man. We'd love to have you on, you know. There's so many issues. What's going on in here, Patrick, is so wrong. Yeah?

Well, tell me about it. It's wrong, man. There's more bullshit drugs in here than there is out there. You know, I've heard that. And the guards are the ones bringing it in. You know, you can take a construction worker, a brain surgeon, a doctor, a teacher

and let them go to work for eight hours. They might carry a briefcase or a lunch pail with that. Yeah. A prison guard carries a backpack that probably weighs 100 pounds. Just bringing in contraband?

And carrying shit home. Stealing shit. Oh, wow. Wow. Yeah, it's insane. And the mold and the algae and the rats and the filth is just crazy. You mean it's got rats and filth in it? Where you're at?

Just in three weeks, I've caught 25 rats on glue traps under my bed. Are you serious? Yeah. That's crazy, man. Yeah. And, you know, the first thing Trump needs to do when he gets in office is anybody that qualifies to go to a camp. You know what a federal camp is? What is a federal camp?

It's like an apartment complex with no fence around it. Oh, okay. But you're not allowed to leave. I got you. Anybody that qualifies to go to one, you should go home and get a job. Yeah. And start supporting your family. Because the billions of dollars that y'all out there are paying for people to stay in a camp is bullshit. So you feel like it's just wasting taxpayer money?

You know it is. Because, look, if you don't come here, crackhead, you're probably going to leave here, crackhead. Really? It's that bad? It's that bad. Man, that's sad to hear, man. You hate hearing things like that. It is.

So, you know, like, I got a 21-year sentence. Right. For what? For what? Okay? They've all admitted to perjury. They admitted to plot to kill me. Why am I even here?

Okay? And not to mention 21 years. Right, right. No, it seems egregious, number one, and we have seen the information, and it does seem to me that there's something wrong here. There's something bad wrong. Yeah.

So this appeal that's coming up, when is the next hearing on that or trial? Okay, the way appeals work is, okay, we filed our appeal, and we filed our brief with all the new evidence. Okay, the government has 30 days to respond. Okay. And their 30 days should be up like any

day, right? Okay. So they could respond in any way. They could respond with yes, they could respond with no, or anything in between. They could respond with, hey, you know, why don't we just do time serve and let them go home? Or they could try and take me back to trial. Yeah.

Which they're never going to do that because their witnesses have already admitted the perjury. Okay. So do you feel optimistic that this appeal may work? Well, I mean, if it doesn't, I'm going to die in here because we have enough evidence to prove that I'm innocent yeah so you say in other words you've got the evidence if you don't get out it's only because they're not going to let you out right right now that would be a damn shame and that's why I need Trump no I understand that I understand why you're trying to get to him for sure well we definitely

want to help amplify that message for you, Joe, and get it out there to people so they know what the hell to do to help you. I mean, are there petitions out there? Are there ways that these folks can, you know, reach them and tell them, hey, we want you to do something? If you push the website, the joexoticofficial.com. Yes, sir. There's an evidence link there. There's an evidence link there.

There's a petition link there. Okay. There's everything you need from that website. At thejoexoticofficial.com location. Right. And then I'll have the girls send you a GoFundMe that we have set up. Because, you know, a lot of people think that I'm just loaded because of Tiger King, but people don't realize I didn't get paid for Tiger King.

I was in jail two years before Tiger King was filmed. Not only that, but I'm sure that attorneys have to be paid for and all of these things. Yeah, so what I'm trying to do is just raise $1,900 for Christmas so me and George can each buy our groceries for November and December and $400 for the official wedding. Okay, okay. So $1,900 is the goal right now. I bet we can help with that, I'm sure. It's not like I'm asking for a million bucks, you know?

No, that's a pretty small ask as far as they go, Joe. I'm not going to lie to you. That's pretty reasonable there. It's pretty crazy, but. I'm not going to lie to you. That's pretty reasonable there. It's pretty crazy. But then I cannot get anybody to donate. It's crazy. Well, let me see if maybe we can help out a little bit with that. Now, Joe, what kind of food do you guys get there?

It's crap. Most of it is expired. Believe it or not, yeah. I'm saying it's expired by like eight, nine months. Oh, wow. And then the

food that we do eat, a kindergarten and daycare gets more of a portion than we get here. It's not these guards think that it's coming out of their paycheck, but what's happening

is they're carrying it all home. Oh, wow. Okay. That's terrible, man. Yeah, yeah. Now, what about as far as, I mean, clearly, at least you do have some access to the outside world, which is good.

Is that helping some to help you? Well, you know, I do probably an interview or two a day, which helps a lot. Yeah. Because it's keeping my name out there. Because, you know, they used to keep me shut up. They kept my phone privileges taken away. Right. And I couldn't use an email or none of that. Now, I can

at least do phone interviews. Actually, they just started approving people to come in and interview me. You really need to get on the Federal Medical Center website in Fort Worth and fill out a press thing.

So far, nobody's came to talk to me. Well, I'll tell you what. I'll go on there and fill it out and press thing. Okay. So far, nobody's came to talk to me. Well, I'll tell you what. I'll go on there and fill it out and come talk to you. I would love for you to come just sit down and visit me. Well, hell yeah, I will. Yeah, you say I have to go to the Fort Worth Medical Center site? Website and fill out the press thing, yeah.

Okay. All right. I will get that done this week. Uh, we'll get that filled out and, uh, see if we can get approved on that list to get in there and, uh,

you know, uh, talk to you in person, get that, uh, set up where we can broadcast that across the world. Yeah. Hell yeah.

Yeah. That'd be great, man. I love that. That'd be a great thing to do, Joe. All right. Cool, cool.

So, yeah. Have you not watched the videos of all of the people in mid-referencing? I haven't seen that, to be honest with you. That's one of the things I have not seen. When you said that, I was a little bit taken aback because I was unaware they had done that. Yeah, when you get on that website, go to the evidence link and watch the videos, you'll question yourself. Why the hell is this man still in prison? Why have none of these people been charged?

The hitman even went one step further and took my lawyer's Netflix to the zoo and showed them where he hid a murder weapon. Their original plan was to kill me. Wow. That's insane, man. And you know what? I'm not shocked to hear that because I did watch the documentary and I did see some of the stuff that happened and it didn't make sense to me. It's never made sense to me, to be honest with you. I've always thought that you were railroaded, to be honest i don't get it all of this so you can't pay the baby

tiger back well it seems ludicrous to be honest i mean we all know you never even got there uh it was never even a reality that uh an attempt on a life happened and and it's all been a lot of conjured up stuff. Well, who the hell even thinks you can drive to Florida and shock somebody and drive back and kill them on $3,000? No, that's not a very good budget for murder. It's a little low on the budget list. You know, you probably made that much for a tiger cub and then some, you know,

why, why would you want, you know, come on, man, you know, go watch those videos. All right.

And next Sunday at 11 o'clock is a good time for me. All right. So how about just plan on expecting me to call you every Sunday at 11? I love that. Let's do it every Sunday at 11 o'clock. We're going to do a call. We're going to do an update, and I'm going to get this thing filled out on the website for

you so I can come down there personally, and we'll do an in-person video interview. That would be amazing. All right, Joe. Thank you, man. Have a great day. Bye-bye, buddy.
