In this, the long-awaited fourth episode of Inside Henry’s Head, our hero tackles another gloriously mismatched pair of topics: the kākāpō—a rare, nocturnal, flightless parrot from New Zealand—and the aardvark, a snuffling, ant-eating beast straight outta Africa.
Prepare for some unfiltered kākāpō appreciation, including info about how they’ve become endangered (not the Dutch this time), what they smell like, and why you probably shouldn’t wear a green t-shirt near them. Then it's on to the aardvark: part pig, part kangaroo, part vacuum cleaner—all adorable. Well, if you’re Henry anyway.
Expect the same number of occasionally accurate facts, unexpected detours, and surprising singsongs. Plus, the usual semi-comprehensible comments from his lispy father thrown in for good measure.
If you’ve ever wondered what connects an endangered parrot and a solitary insectivore (besides absolutely nothing), this is the episode for you.
So, strap in for another charming, if slightly chaotic, journey around Henry’s Head.
