Zoodle in the Pub
Every week, videos of Australian animals go viral on social media. From barking magpies, a koala chasing a quadbike to emus running amok - we love watching them. But rarely is there information to help explain what these animals are actually doing. Join well-known local comedian and ABC radio personality Eddie Bannon and Australian wildlife-guru Chris Daniels, as they mull over the science behind popular clips of iconic Australian species. What they come up with might surprise you! You can also take part in the discussion and find out how to get involved in protecting our amazing biodiversity. It’s the launch of a great new project called Zoodle funded by Inspiring SA. It’s about having fun while finding out more about our wildlife, and filling a gap on social media.

ZoodleTV is a collaboration of local scientists, journalists and artists that aims to raise awareness and understanding of Australian wildlife through the use of viral animal videos, science expertise and comedy. In 2020, it was awarded an Arts-Science grant from Inspiring South Australia, followed by a grant from National Science Week in 2021. The project launched with a live event at the Rob Roy Hotel as part of the Fringe 2021. It was a great success, which then was followed up with another live performance at the Rob Roy Hotel in 2021.
