Asshole Animals, with AliceLIVE AT GLOBAL BIRDFAIR 2025 - Ticks, with Dr Sean McCormackAlright, so we may need to up our PR budget for this one...NO ONE is protesting on the side of Ticks. They are bitey, blood-sucky, gross-looking little creatures that look like they belong in a sci-fi movie...or are they?It just so happens that we managed to find an expert willing to put his reputation on the line to defend the tiny Tick - vet, conservationist and hilarious human Dr Sean McCormack, survivor of Lyme disease and lover of parasites. Join Sean and Alice at Global Birdfair 2025 as they educate not only the...2025-07-2218 min

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 41 - Iguanas, with Matt LawrenceWhat do you think you know about Iguanas? That they're big ol' Lizards that hang around Florida? That they make great emotional support pets for lonely spinsters? (Shout-out to Jub-Jub from "The Simpsons").What if we told you that Iguanas are some of the most diversely located reptiles on Earth? What if we told you that they have the quiet dignitas of an animal that's achieved spiritual enlightment but have teeth that say "yeah, fuck around and find out, pal"? What if we mentioned that one species can hold their breath for 30 minutes underwater? Well...2025-06-171h 03

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 40 - White-Tailed Eagles, with Hamza YassinIt's difficult not to be jealous of Eagles, isn't it? Their giant wingspan, their majesty in the air, the gasps of wonder that follow them wherever they fly. The awe they strike upon us by simply existing in our skies is something to behold. And yet here we are - talking White-Tailed Eagles today...On the show to talk about his relationship with these majestic birds and to discuss his new book, which is CHOCK-FULL of cool animal facts, is wildlife photographer and honorary eagle himself, Hamza Yassin. Listen to this episode to hear...2025-05-2737 min

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 39 - Dogs, with Hal HerzogWe've really shot ourselves in the foot with this one, haven't we? What possible asshole-rating could Alice give to man's closest animal companion? The Scooby to our Shaggy? The Gromit to our Wallace? The Hachiko to our...whoever Hachiko's owner was?We brought out the big guns for this one. Anthrozoologist Hal Herzog - who studies the relationship between Humans and Dogs, joins Alice this week as they've got perhaps the TOUGHEST job of all - deciding of how much of a dick Dogs can be...Care to find out what Dogs have to do...2025-05-161h 09

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 38 - Gators, with Ellen WeatherfordIf you're a Millenial, then chances are you grew up watching The Rescuers, so are somewhat traumatised by Gators, having watched young orphan Penny be tormented by Madame Medusa and her two, thicc pet alligators. But, this is reality, so we have important questions to address, the most pertinent being: "Are Gators actually assholes?", and to help Alice answer that question, we brought in native Floridian and the host of "Just the Zoo of Us" podcast: Ellen Weatherford! They’ll be diving into all the facts: their prehistoric backstory, their sneaky hunting strategies, their surprisingly te...2025-04-291h 13

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 37 - Hyenas, with Mamadou NdiayeQuick fire: what carnivore found in both Africa AND Asia is a highly intelligent, highly successful apex predator with a complex social structure? If you said Lions, then you are DEAD wrong, idiot. Today we're talking about one of the most badass animals that you probably don't know too much about (or what you DO know is incorrect...thanks, Disney) . Standing with Alice to present the best Hyena defence for the jury is wildlife educator, author and all around hilarious human being, Mamadou Ndiaye, who is making it his personal mission to re-write what people...2025-04-151h 08

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 36 - Emus, with Christian FloresWhat do you think of when you think of an Emu? Dark, sweeping hair? Eyeliner? Lip piercings? Well, I hate to blow your minds, but you're actually thinking of Emos, you absolute spoon. Far less moody and listening to way less My Chemical Romance is the humble Emu, native to the chaotic Australia. Emus are tall, curious and make EXCELLENT Dads, so why are they on this podcast today?Joining Alice to be the justice that Emus need is the fabulous Christian Flores - Zookeeper, Paleo-educator and Emu enthusiast. Listen as they discuss Michael Jordan...2025-04-0155 min

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 35 - Rats, with Dr Evan AntinOkay, okay. We know we're going to have to work overtime on this one, because this is a hard sell. Yes, Rats carry diseases, cause damage, eat food that doesn't belong to them and MAYBE most people are weirdly creeped out by their tail. But they are also smart, compassionate and determined individuals, so maybe you should shut the hell up. Here to give Rats some positive PR is the incredible Dr Evan Antin, small animals/exotic/wildlife vet, who can reassure you, from a vet side of things that they are not the evil...2025-03-181h 09

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 34 - Starlings, with Stephen MossIt's hard to imagine that Alice would be poking fun at a bird with iridescent feathers, a beautiful flight pattern, and whose name LITERALLY means "little star", but here we are. It was hard to imagine that Donald Trump would turn out to be a wannabe Dictator....crazier things have happened in this timeline. Here to discuss one of Britain's most under-the-radar birds is celebrated author, TV producer, and creator of BBC's Springwatch: Stephen Moss - who researched Starlings to such a degree that he became their official biographer, releasing a book entitled: "The Starling: A Biography". 2024-11-0551 min

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 33 - Tasmanian Devils, with Brian AhearnSide note before we get started: does anyone else remember Cadbury's "Taz"s? The chocolate bar? The one that was kind of like a Freddo but had caramel inside? What ever HAPPENED to those? In any case, Tasmanian Devils are definitely one of those creatures that the general public knows little about, other than through the portrayal of a beloved yet crazed cartoon lunatic. Could you even DRAW a Tasmanian Devil if I asked you to? Probably not, right? Here to talk about these wild and wonderful beings is Brian Ahearn, nature-lover and artist, and...2024-10-1450 min

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 32 - Slugs, with Yussef RafikQuick question: how much do you know about Slug penises? Not very much? Well, that's SUPER embarrassing for you...Thankfully, Yussef Rafik (children's TV presenter/zoologist/slug enthusiast) is here to tell you all you need to know about Slugs (genitalia and otherwise). The human experience with Slugs can probably be best described as one of "disgust", right? No one is happy to see a Slug - not on their plants, under their shoe as they step out into the garden, and certainly not in their HOMES. But Slugs are actually incredible creatures and are super important...2024-09-1751 min

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 31 - Elephants, with James Roday RodriguezYou've got to hand it to Elephants - for an animal THAT large, they've managed to invoke a range of emotions in us pretty well. Whether you were moved to tears by Dumbo, terrified of the Heffalumps in Winnie the Pooh or laughing at Stampy, Bart's Elephant from the Simpsons - us humans have a special kinship with these large creatures and it's about time we explored that... Here to determine if Elephants are assholes are not is funny man James Roday Rodriguez, who believes that Elephants may just be our spirit guides. Hear Alice and James...2024-08-1552 min

Flying solo, Connor sits down with Alice Vassallo from Asshole Animals with Alice for an episode with a twist… As Alice hosts a podcast about animals that are just plain asses, we thought we wouldn’t let her choose one to put in Planty Planty Zoo Zoo - but instead, she could BAN an animal from ever being added!

Asshole Animals, with AliceLIVE AT GLOBAL BIRDFAIR: "How Many Geese?" vs "Asshole Animals with Alice"We all love a good crossover episode, right? Jetsons meet the Flintstones, Family Guy vs The Simpsons, Angel and Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Well, all of those crossovers PALE in comparison to the shenanigans brought by the teams at "How Many Geese?" and "Asshole Animals with Alice"... Join Jack, Roddy and Alice as they set their differences aside to crown the "Worst Bird in the World"...at Global Birdfair.

How many geese?HMG Live: The Worst Bird in the WorldIt's the second part of our live Global Birdfair specials and we're coming out swinging as we try to answer the ultimate question - what is the worst bird in the world? But we couldn't hope to answer such a question alone, so we've called in the expert when it comes to cretinous creatures and are joined by our pal Alice Vassallo off "Asshole Animals with Alice". There's 16 species up for discussion, but only one will be left spitting feathers when we present it with the trophy for being atrocious... Make sur...2024-07-3059 min

Journey of an Aesthete Podcasthttps://www.jouneyofanaesthetepodcast.com/Season 6: "The Christine Moore Episode"Inside this Episode with host, Mitch Hampton I seem to never tire of saying that among my many missions on this podcast is to have guests that are quite different than myself. Although Christine and I are both musicians and in the music world, I can't carry a tune to save my life and my truly awful singing voice is one of the main reasons I decided to purely instrumental music in terms of my own performance. Not only does our guest have one of the best singing voices in her for any field or ge...2024-07-181h 04

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 29 - Snakes, with Dan RumseyWe, as humans, DO love to use animal names as insults, don't we? You might call your cheating ex boyfriend a "dog", you might call someone going to the police a "rat". Hell, you may even go as far as to call people who support Trump "sheep". It's called speciesism - look it up. Among those brutish insult-names, is the humble Snake, which is what you might call someone treacherous or sneaky. Snakes have had a bad rap since...well, the Bible, I guess. Tempting Eve and all that. But elsewhere in the world, other cultures gave...2024-06-181h 09

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 28 - Coyotes, with Coyote PetersonGrowing up, your first experience with a Coyote quite possibly may have been watching a cartoon Coyote attempt, in vain, to catch and eat a cartoon Roadrunner. What if we told you that while you're rooting for the Roadrunner as a kid, as an adult you're probably identifying more with the Coyote? With Alice this week is YouTuber, wildlife expert and all-around badass Coyote Peterson, to tell you how he got his nickname, why Coyotes will survive the apocalypse, AND about an incredible feature film that we need to get off of the Warner Bros shelf... 2024-05-281h 00

The Animal Files PodcastTAF Interview Series: Zookeeper and Animal Comedienne, Alice VassalloIn this episode, we have a lovely chat with UK-based Zookeeper, Animal Comedienne, and Podcaster Alice Vassallo. We discussed all things animals, the joys and challenges of being a zookeeper, and how we all can join together to help zoos all around the world be better and put conservation and the needs of the animals as their top priorities, so they can continue to ethically educate the public and ensure their animals thrive. Bio: Alice Vassallo is a UK based Zookeeper and Wildlife comedienne, with a passion for the animal world and the desire to...2024-05-2758 min

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 27 - Brown Bears, with Wes LarsonThe term "Bear" can evoke a number of feelings depending on the context. If you're an avid hiker, hearing the word "bear" may induce a sense of sheer terror. When coupled with the word "hug", the term "bear" might be a source of comfort, especially when you need an extra-strong source of affection. If you love burly, hairy men, then "bear" may elicit some arousal, who knows? In the context of this show, "Bear" should invoke feelings of joy and wonder, as we dive into the behaviour of specifically Brown Bears - the poster child of the...2024-04-181h 02

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 26 - Geese, with Jack BaddamsIt's difficult to imagine a more intense rivalry than Humans and Geese. We eat them at Christmas time, they terrorise our picnics. It's a feud as old as time, with countless tears and bloodshed, and yet we are doomed to torture each other as long as we both walk this Earth. Championing the Goose's side of the war, while still acknowledging the living chaos that our feathered friends rain upon mankind, is Ornithologist, host of the "How Many Geese?" podcast, and first EVER returning guest: Jack Baddams, who exhibits what we like to call "BGE" or Big...2024-03-251h 21

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 25 - African Wild Dogs, with Lindsay NikoleWe all know there are cat people and dog people, it's a fact of life. But just for the sake of this episode, we'll be asking all the cat people out there to take off their cat hats and consider loving instead the humble African Wild Dog. The most cat-like dog species in the world, due to the fact they are obligate carnivores, are revered in Ancient Egypt and have no time for human bullshit. Talking about our first ever canine species on the show is the mega badass Lindsay Nikole, who tells the audience how Wild...2024-03-0851 min

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 24 - Toucans, with Brock AfentulIn case any of you were wondering, this episode brings Alice no joy. To be forced to dunk on your favourite animal of all time for the sake of comedy is a bittersweet and hollow experience. Listen with caution, you may be able to hear Alice's tears of sorrow...amidst the laughter. Joining Alice to talk about the bird with the highest beauty to crazy ratio is content creator and Toucan dad - Brock Afentul, who has scars both physical and emotional from his time keeping Toucans - which you can learn more about by searching for...2024-02-231h 12

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 23 - Feral Pigeons, with Kendall LongWhat do you see when you look at a Pigeon? A "dumb bird" wandering aimlessly through life? A feathered rat delving through our garbage? A government surveillance drone hell-bent on documenting your secrets? Whether you think these things or not, Pigeons are here to stay. And they COULD just be the most stable and reliable presence in your life right now, so why not learn more about them? Joining Alice this week is the ethereal Kendall Long - guardian of the Pigeons and true nature nerd. Together, Alice and Kendall work hard to change your...2024-01-301h 05

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 22 - Cats, with Jenna FischerThe only 3 certainties in life are: Death, Taxes and the human desire to depict our cats in art. We've been reproducing their likenesses in multiple art forms since we domesticated them 10,000 years ago. From pottery, to hieroglyphics, to black and white photos - we are OBSESSED. In fact, does anyone even remember the Internet without cat videos? As sure as the day is long, humans have forever been fascinated by cats and their behaviour, despite some of that behaviour being nefarious and downright rude in nature. For that reason, the task of explaining why their rascal-y antics...2024-01-161h 03

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 21 - Crows, with Dr Kaeli SwiftIt's the year 2123. With ongoing wars, a devastating climate catastrophe, and the inevitable uprising of artificial intelligence, the Human race is fractured. Only the Crows remain... Why have Crows succeeded where other species have fallen? They've been watching us the whole time...gathering information, scavenging, communicating above our very heads. For years, we ignored them. Shooed them away. Shot and poisoned them. Little did we know that they would have the last laugh, as humanity plunges into despair. Okay, so we can't see into the future. But this is Science's best guess at what will...2023-12-121h 15

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 20 - Penguins with Kristyn PlancarteHow often has a silly Penguin video made your day a little brighter? How often has their silliness, their child-like determination and their adorable little waddles restored your faith that maybe, just maybe, there IS some pure joy left in this world? You're probably expecting this paragraph to now explain that Penguins are ACTUALLY the Devil and should be cancelled - but that's certainly not true. What they are capable of is knowing your weak spots and exploiting them, as Penguin Keeper and Marine Biologist Kristyn Plancarte will tell you... It's unfair to liken Penguins...2023-11-2855 min

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 19 - Orcas, with Billy HeaneyJust when you thought it was safe to go back in the water, we're back for another round of "which member of the Dolphin family could absolutely wreck your shit if it wanted?" - and the answer, unsurprisingly, is the Orca. You may know Killer Whales from "Free Willy", you may know them from "Blackfish", but soon enough you'll know them from your nightmares. Of course we're kidding, but with their level of intelligence and their penchant for wrecking OTHER animals' shit, you'd probably best board up your windows and doors just in case... Joining...2023-11-141h 10

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 18 - Vultures, with Hillary HankeyThe phrase "Circling like a Vulture" doesn't often conjure pleasant imagery. One may circle like a Vulture over an estranged great Aunt's belongings in the months preceding her death. One may circle like a Vulture over a promotion at the Law firm where you've been busting your ass for the last 7 years. "Circling like a Vulture" implies a predatory behaviour, carefully plotting yet somewhat opportunistic. Waiting in the shadows for the right moment... Well that phrase is dumb, and so are you. They aren't waiting for you to die, idiot, some of them are attracted to the...2023-11-071h 04

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 17 - Tarantulas, with Dr Sebastian EcheverriWebster's dictionary defines "fear" as: "an unpleasant, often strong, emotion caused by anticipation or awareness of danger". For pretty much 90% of the planet, fear in an animal form takes the shape of the humble and introverted Tarantula. It's unclear why 8 legs and a hairy body seems to equal danger to us, but the answer is probably conditioning from media and a fear that's been passed down through generations, just like a terrible, incorrect recipe from your grandma. Well, the trauma cycle ends now. Joining Alice today is the ultimate spider-nerd Dr Sebastian Echeverri, who breaks...2023-10-241h 11

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 16 - Ants, with Jack Baddams and Roddy ShawWe. Are. Back. And kicking off Season 2 of "Asshole Animals with Alice" is a species that could almost transcend assholery due to their intelligence and their terrifying efficiency: Ants. It may disturb you to hear that below your picnic blanket, below the loamy depths of the soil is a fully formed SOCIETY with more harmony and union than we will ever achieve as Humans. A Utopia, some might say, but with beings that could easily dominate and enslave the human race if they were only larger. Aaaaanyway. Today Alice is joined by two members of...2023-10-121h 18

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 15 - Komodo Dragons, with Adam RadovanovicEugh, who DOESN'T love a giant, bitey, scaley thing? It's why we all love Jurassic Park, right? In a boring world without ACTUAL Dragons, it's time we settle for the next best thing: Komodo Dragons - whom, despite being wingless and unable to breathe fire - can still turn your blood cold if they run after you. After dodging an incredible 14 episodes of the podcast, it's high time that Reptiles answered for their asshole crimes. This week, Alice dives in to discuss perhaps the coolest bitey, scaley thing (no shade, Crocs and Gators), as well as Nobel...2023-08-1557 min

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 14 - Macaws, with Barbara HeidenreichWell, well, well. If it isn't the infamous Macaw episode... As you guys know, the possibility of a Macaw episode has been thrown around a lot on this podcast. No one thought it would happen. No one DREAMED it would happen. But yet, the wait is finally over, and what better person to help discuss one of the most intelligent species of bird on the planet than Avian behaviour expert and celebrated animal trainer, Barbara Heidenreich. Join Alice and Barbara as they get philosophical about the term "asshole" and dive deep into topics like: Blu...2023-08-011h 08

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 13 - Australian Magpies, with Dr Gráinne ClearyWhen you think of "fear", you might think of spiders or snakes. High-up places, cramped places, public speaking or, heck, even Clowns. Maybe giving a talk on a high-up podium at a crowded Clown convention scares you, who knows? For Australians, there is Swoopophobia, which is the term I just made up for getting swooped by the Australian Magpie. As if Australians needed another thing to be afraid of as well as the chance of Tony Abbott eating another raw onion on live television... (that joke is funny if you're from Down Under). 2023-07-141h 00

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 12 - Bats, with Rhiannon Traish-WalkerWe interrupt this broadcast to bring you an important message: it turns out that the Goths were right - Bats are actually pretty fucking rad. From taking care of those pesky mosquitoes that threaten to ruin your vacation, to pollinating the agave plant that is used for the tequila you're inhaling while you're on vacation, Bats are actually doing you a solid by helping you relax on your god damn Ibiza holiday, Karen. Show some RESPECT. Joining Alice this week, all the way from Down Under, is Wildlife Vet Nurse and Bat rehabilitator/snuggler Rhiannon...2023-07-031h 16

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 11 - Triggerfish, with Kate SheridanHey! You! Yeah, you. Ever heard of a Triggerfish? Probably not, right? Maybe you're thinking: "Yeah but there are SO many animals I've never heard of, why should I care about this one?" and that's where this podcast comes in - to tell you to get your head out of your ass and start paying attention. If you're a lover of the ocean, a fish-eater, a fish-hater, someone wanting to brush up on their general knowledge before a pub quiz, or anyone with a passing interest in hearing two women talk about douchey animals...2023-06-181h 13

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 10 - Dolphins Part 1, with Bertie GregorySomewhere...buried deep in a landfill... lies the bright, glittery Dolphin merchandise of your childhood. You know what I'm talking about. The stickers, the fake tattoos, the dangly earrings. Maybe even a mood ring with a Dolphin on it? Close your eyes and travel back to the past, when deciding where to put up your awesome new Dolphin poster was the biggest problem in your life. Hate to break it to you, but if your Dolphin-merch nostalgia made you sad just now, prepare for it to get a whole lot worse... In the first...2023-06-0955 min

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 9 - Sharks, with Megan McCubbinWere you ever picked on as a kid because you didn't want to go in the swimming pool in case there was a Shark in there? Does the Jaws theme tune STILL make your heart rate quicken to this day? Good news: you were the victim of the media's Shark fearmongering and you COULD be entitled to compensation! Your reparations for this heinous crime include getting to learn why Sharks are awesome and NEVER having to listen to "Baby Shark" again.

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 8 - Opossums, with Rick SchwartzWhat do we truly know about Opossums? We know they like to eat trash, that they like to come out at night, and we also know they're about non-confrontational as it gets, even faking their death to get out of an awkward situation. Can we not say that at least one of those things are true about ourselves? Take a look in the mirror, people! Join Alice as she busts myths and changes hearts and minds about North America's only Marsupial, with the help of the talented, knowledgeable and ever-so-dreamy Rick Schwartz, from San...2023-05-1153 min

Asshole Animals, with AliceEpisode 7 - Seagulls, with "Lucy Lapwing"Afraid to go to the beach, lest some feathered bandit steal the chips you've been waiting all day for? The chips that probably cost around £12 nowadays in this economy? Well, consider this episode your immersion therapy - but the only thing that'll be hijacked during this podcast will be your hearts - for these sassy, savvy scroungers. You're welcome. Join Alice and bird-nerd "Lucy Lapwing" as they shrug, unbothered, at Seagull behaviour and tell you to just get better reflexes when eating your food at the beach. Duh-doy. Also learn how Seagulls are the unsung Eco-champions of o...2023-05-011h 02

Rest your weary eyes, sit back and listen to the dulcet tones of the jungle, with Alice's hilarious guests all the way from Costa Rica - Wildlife Veterinarians Ana and Andrés.
