Ep 174 ANIMAL PASSIONS with comedian Butch Escobar

We cover Animal Passions, a 2004 BBC documentary by Christopher Spencer with comedian Butch Escobar.

Today we’re covering Animal Passions, a 2004 BBC documentary by Christopher Spencer. It’s about Zoophiles, people who have sex with animals. Trigger warning! (Literally, the horse is named trigger). Animal Passions is a documentary on zoophilia presenting various personal, religious, psychological, and sociological views on the phenomenon of sexual relations between humans and other animals. Director Christopher Spencer introduces us to some of the most marginalized people on Earth. The interviewees, both men and women, are incredibly candid about their zoophile lifestyle (an illegal lifestyle in most parts of the world and in almost all 50 US states) and come across as resigned to their unconventional sexual proclivity.

Our guest is comedian Butch Escobar. He is a regular at the San Jose Improv, The Punch Line, the Hollywood Improv eand the Comedy Store. Butch has toured all over the country with Felipe Esparza and has performed overseas for the US troops.

So much is going on!

But mostly we wanted to tell you we’re doing a new biopic recap format called BIOPSY!

It’s not replacing the documentary focus, just a way to also wedge in some recent movies we’ve seen and wanted to share about.

Starting with the Taron Egerton version of Elton John in Rocketman!

You’ll hear the episode in your Sup Doc feed on July 8th, but here’s a rough audio version just for Patreon patrons.
