Priceless

Very unique and very funny. A bit naughty in places (the bee’s dick snaps off after an inflight orgy) so not for the kiddies dear.
Excellent production. Timing perfect.
If you too love the weird and the wonderful about our neighbours the animals, then this series is for you. Weirdo.

I am writing this review for the series

Sue Perkins is Hilarious in her respectful suburban outlook of animals unique species specific behavior . I have had farm animals my whole life which has led to an interest in all animals and never really considered what they may seem like when observed from a suburban point of view. What I take for granted as species specific attributes had me howling at how it is interpreted by what I am inclined to believe is the majority of Audible listeners . Parents may want to listen first so they are not fielding animal husbandry questions they are unprepared to answer

What else would you expect from Sue Perkins?

I found this series by accident. It was free but it is so good that I would totally pay for this. This review is applicable to the entire series. The series focuses on animals - so informative but so funny. It has that Sue Perkins from QI feel to it with hilarious skits.

This series is lol funny and informative!

Earpedia by Due Perkins has 13 episodes. This one I am writing the review one is just one. They are all about 10-15 minutes long. Each covers a specific animal. Each one is very informative and funny. I found myself taking a drink of tea at the wrong time and ended up snorting up tea through the nose! She is hilarious! I am not sure which was the most informative but I think the news was my favorite over all! I am so glad I found this audible book!

Hilarious knowledge! More please!

Great humor, perfect length, and enough new information to be interesting. An unpredictable mix of animals- no set order needed. Captivating to children without being condescending and not at all as annoying as it could be to adults. Thoroughly enjoyed sharing all of the episodes with my kids and didn’t wish I could burn it down once.

Trigger Warning-Specially Gross

I did not realize when I selected this that it was aimed at children. Sue Perkins does a great job of making it an especially disgusting story for 9-12 year-olds.

There is quite a bit of interesting information, and I did listen to the entire 30 minutes, but for me, this is not a keeper.

I’m off to wash my brain of the imagery she so enthusiastically created in my brain.
