About the characters in the Podcast

In Wild Thing: Siegfried & Roy, Siegfried Fischbacher and Roy Horn are German illusionists who put on many successful shows. They started their careers on cruise ships and magical nightclub acts. Now popular in Las Vegas. Even after becoming social freaks, they lived a very private life. They weren’t very open about themselves in public.

They ended their show in 2003 due to some unexpected incident of Horn’s throat being bitten by one of their tigers during a live performance, which caused him severe injury. That was the end of their public appearance. They were also being criticized with several animal welfare advocates and NGOs. There is so much to know about them.
