Earpedia is very funny and hugely enjoyable. I'm a big fan of Sue Perkins and her narration is spot on. The podcasts contain some fun, interesting scientific information about various creatures, some common and others I'd never heard of. What made Earpedia stand out was Sue's narration, her jokes, sarcasm and funny little asides such as calling Weasels psychopaths, slating Reindeer's fashion sense, ridiculing the pink fairy armadillo (who wouldn't?) and making me a bit scared of Kangaroos. Earpedia is a great podcast. I must confess it took me an alarming amount of time to understand the meaning of the show's title.
