I was in the audience for this recording. That was a fun night out!

I can remember going to the zoo as a kid and seeing a talk by the meerkat enclosure. The zookeeper began by saying "nowadays, of course, meerkats are most famous for their Russian accents and ability to sell car insurance."

I loved these songs so much. :D But I had to look up the "Simples" joke because I am not British and I don't know that commercial haha. The last one gets so hilariously gruesome I can't stop laughing. x´D Now I want to think of Zookeeper situations you could write songs like that about.

Frankly, I'm amazed that there are people who don't know "simples", it totally slipped my mind that it's not a thing outside of the UK. It's SUCH a cultural touchstone in the UK, I think it's even in the Dictionary.

In my case, it was the last bit that got me confused. Didn't even realise it was animal related too! I didn't know what a bollard or a gnu was. xD Infectiously catchy songs!

I've worked at pet stores and an aquarium-- When you see a clownfish don't say Nemo.
