I agree, it’s brilliant. Early episodes (some of which he re-recorded for better quality) really fit the bill, like the ridiculous ideas about where babies come from and where birds went in the winter.
That said, OP should exercise some caution as there are a few episodes that deal with darker topics.
But, yeah. Fucking Aristotle.
I also would recommend occasional collaborator Our Fake History, which looks at events and characters that have lots of myths about them. Again, there are some darker topics, but many fun ones. Was there a real Troy? Did Shakespeare write his plays? Is there a real inspiration for Atlantis? Could the Chinese treasure ships beat Columbus to the Americas? And just how big of an asshole was Columbus (although that one may be one of those dark topics)?
