  • Hello and welcome to ANOTHER episode, the 120th episode, of Lexx Education! It's the comedy science podcast where comedian Laura Lexx has spent two years trying to learn GCSE science from her younger brother Ron.

    Now we find ourselves smackbam in the middle of exam season with Laura about to sit the second half of her chemistry exam!

    It's snacky. Be warned it is SNACKY. It's also stupid. But we don't need to warn you about that.

  • Ok, here we go again... welcome to another EXAM episode of Lexx Education.

    The comedy science podcast where a thirtysomething comedian resits her GCSE science exam with the help of her non comedian science fan brother Ron.

    This week we get stuck in to the AQA foundation chemistry exam and you are about to hear the first half. It's messy, it's argumentative, it's snacky and there's a big problem with dust.

    We hope you love it!

  • Welcome back to part 2 of the biology exam... the bit where all the wheels start to come off, roll through dog poop and then hit the spectators in the head!

    It starts back with malaria is a protist and into a new section.

    They immediately have a disagreement about whether or not Laura should be befriending rats.

    A word of warning - Ron is enthusiastically eating pistachios and then cleaning up his own pistachio mess during the beginning of this episode so sorry to everyone who hates all the messy noises that surround our speaking.

    You really start to hear Laura’s frustration brimming into giddiness around the 16 minutes mark (of the exam - not the whole episode). She gets a bit whiny and groany.

    Laura then joins in on eating the pistachios. At around the 18 minute mark (of the exam - not the whole episode) you might want to just take your headphones out for a while. And when we see a while... we mean until the end of the exam. It is the most eating noises experience on planet earth.

    We hope you still love us after this.

  • Well hello there and welcome to what is not just another episode of Lexx Education.... it's the start of everything we've been working towards.

    For over two years comedian Laura Lexx has been working painfully through the GCSE science syllabus with her younger, non comedian, brother Ron. And today, finally, the exams begin...

    It's the first half of the Biology Foundation level exam. All three foundation exams were recorded in one week on consecutive nights so consider this the least exhausted, giddy and depressed they were.

    It’s what we would call a messy start to what should be the epic firework display of our podcast. We finally sit down to do a biology exam but first Ron is playing Magic, then he thinks it’s Physics then he accidentally sends Laura the mark scheme. Smooth.

    The exam begins. Laura gets steadily better at describing tables throughout the exam.

    There are a few fun tangents for some black mold, some ants, some patreon chat and various other cul de sacs but really, it’s bam bam bam GCSE science exam. Make sure you are subscribed so that the second half arrives directly and smoothly next week... you won't want to miss it.

    Don't forget our Cheerful Earful tickets for 20th October are now on sale: https://cheerfulearful.podlifeevents.com/festival/lexx-education-live-show-20th-oct-tickets

  • Hello and welcome to another episode of Lexx Education! It's the comedy science podcast where comedian Laura Lexx tries to learn science from her normal non comedian super nerd brother Ron.

    This week we introduce an extra family member to the podcast - it's Youngest Sister of the Podcast AKA Meg! She joins us for a group revision session recorded in the garden of Agony Dad and Mother featuring Pigeon.

    Laura and Meg compete on a combined science practice paper to see whether Laura has learned ANYTHING or if Meg can outpace her simply by having listened to the podcast and by having a brain.

    We hope you love it! Exams start next week and if you want to show us your love as we edge into this new exciting phase then please feel free to go to patreon.com/lexxeducation and support this little project for only £3 per month.

  • Hello and welcome to yet another episode of Lexx Education! With the GCSE science syllabus complete, but the strict biology, chemistry physics cycle only being 1/3 of the way through, Laura insists that they spend two episodes treading water until they sit the exams.

    However, in this episode it's not water they're treading - but Bean. It's end of term vibes as Laura and Ron decide to explore the world of Mr Bean and pay homage to Laura's favourite way to spend a final lesson of term. They watch some Bean, Laura laughs and Ron is reluctant, they talk about a multitude of bean related facts and then they do a deep dive into the original Mr Bean release schedule. It's pretty fuckin weird.

    Welcome to another episode of Lexx Education, the comedy science podcast where comedian Laura Lexx and her brother Ron delve into the world of GCSE science and beyond. This week, with the GCSE syllabus finally behind them, Laura and Ron celebrate with an end-of-term episode dedicated to the timeless comedy of Mr. Bean.

    Laura reminisces about the school days when a TV on a trolley meant a Mr. Bean marathon. Ron, on the other hand, is sceptical about Laura’s claims of watching Mr. Bean a million times. To settle the debate, they dive into the episodes and films, sharing laughs and quirky facts about Rowan Atkinson’s iconic character.

    From the hilarity of Mr. Bean’s restaurant antics to the bizarre trivia about Rowan Atkinson’s life, this episode is packed with bean-related fun. Did you know Rowan Atkinson went to school with Tony Blair and studied electrical engineering at Oxford? Or that his brother narrowly missed leading UKIP? Laura and Ron explore these and other fascinating tidbits.

    But it’s not all fun and games. The siblings also touch on Rowan Atkinson’s controversial political views and his surprising real-life heroics, like the time he took control of a plane in Kenya. And of course, they can’t resist discussing the infamous love triangle involving James Acaster and Louise Ford.

  • A classic dose of Lexx Ed here for your ears - Laura is in a very distractable mood and Ron is fairly amenable to it. It is also the episode where we finish the biology syllabus! Which means that it's also the episode where we finish the GCSE syllabus! What a time to be alive and be a listener of the Lexx Education show.

    Topics covered include the Carbon Cycle & the Water Cycle, the riots that are happening in the UK, semantics of a certain word, and other cool things.

    Welcome back to another episode of Lex Education, the comedy science podcast where comedian Laura Lexx attempts to grasp the mysteries of science with the help of her brother, Ron. Today is a momentous occasion as we reach the final episode in the GCSE syllabus. Yes, it's the last biology lesson and the last GCSE episode ever!

    Laura and Ron dive into the complexities of the carbon and water cycles, discussing how carbon and water move through different parts of the ecosystem. Laura's artistic attempts at drawing the cycles provide some comic relief, while Ron tries to keep the lesson on track. They also touch upon the impacts of human activity on biodiversity and the environment, covering topics like deforestation, pollution, and waste management.

    But it's not all science and seriousness. Laura and Ron get sidetracked by discussions about protests, parenting challenges, and even a bit of culinary disaster involving an overly fennel-flavoured curry. The episode wraps up with a quiz on the carbon and water cycles, and a promise of more fun to come in future episodes.

    Class dismissed!

  • Hello and welcome to... ah I mean honestly... what's the point? Ron has given up. Ron is so close to the end that his ever intermittent commitment has gone in a puff of smoke. So we just fuck about for an hour. Enjoy.

    This week, Laura and Ron are back with their usual banter, but things take a bit of a detour. Laura's in Manchester, dealing with a headache and a frustrating shopping trip, while Ron's got his own issues with blisters from a misguided flip-flop walk to get vaccinated. They chat about everything from clothing dilemmas to Ron's recent gift of a £30 voucher and the woes of public speaking.

    They also dive into a discussion about favourite soft drinks, with Laura and Ron debating the merits of Oasis and Rio. There's an amusing tangent about Laura's child's antics with toilet water and the challenges of potty training. The conversation meanders through various topics, including gymnastics, the Bristol Harbour Festival, and the intricacies of Olympic sports.

    Eventually, they attempt to tackle some physics revision, but it quickly devolves into a quiz that leaves Laura questioning her knowledge. They wrap up with a Sonic character quiz, revealing Laura as Knuckles, much to her confusion. It's a chaotic but entertaining episode filled with laughter, random trivia, and the usual sibling dynamic that keeps listeners coming back for more.

  • Hello and welcome to another smashing episode of Lexx Education! This week Ron is still on holiday so Husband of the Podcast Tom joins Laura for intros and outros but the episode itself is Laura and Ron having a gloomy old time going over early chemistry.

    It’s a very low energy start where Laura is still mad at Ron for not telling her about moving house. Gnocchi the cat is there and Ron isn’t interested in any of the fun things coming up which really stifles Laura’s enthusiasm.

    Recapping early chemistry… plum pudding and all that jazz. The gold foil test - Rutherford! Laura actually has remembered vast swathes of this stuff which let’s face it we’re all impressed with.

    We move onto radiation which Laura claims to love but honestly doesn’t remember a second of because, wait for it, we’re not studying it in the same subject that we first covered it in. That brain. That swampy swampy brain.

    Relative charge Laura has down… it’s like listening to a different podcast for a moment. Then we move on to relative mass and… holy crap she’s got it again.

    Somehow we get on to religion for a while… it’s not even an RE episode. So much crossover these days. Back to the science and we’re looking at all the groups on the periodic table and then types of bonds.

  • Hello and welcome to a very special episode of Lexx Education - featuring the very first BOAT EPISODE (well... portion). Ron has dashed off on holiday so it's a solo intro from Laura but then it's a delightful penultimate biology episode where it feels like very old school classic Lexx Education!

    I'll be totally honest, while I'm writing this Agony Dad just handed child of the podcast half a pint of pineapple juice unsupervised so this'll do as a description and i'll add to it later in the week. Peace x

    Ok. I'm back with more:

    Hello and welcome to another episode of Lexx Education, the comedy science podcast where comedian Laura Lexx tries to learn science from her nerdy younger brother, Ron. This week's episode features a special boat intro and outro from Laura, as Ron has sailed off to Portugal, leaving Laura to navigate the podcast solo from Bristol Harbourfest.

    Despite the bustling backdrop of Bristol's festivities, Laura dives into a delightful biology lesson. The episode covers the final module of biology, touching on ecosystems, producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers, and tertiary consumers. Laura and Ron also explore abiotic factors, interdependence, and competition within ecosystems. Expect some classic Lexx Education banter, including a hilarious misunderstanding about how candles work and a special listener question from H. Martin.

  • Hello and welcome to the start of the third year of Lexx Education - we're so glad to have you here!

    This week starts proper old school with Laura in Brighton and Ron in Brussels! It sees the return of Gnocchi the cat - woah! Ron is actually so committed to the podcast that he has taken his microphone to Brussels!

    Get your Cheerful Earful tickets!

    Get your Laura tour tickets!

    As for the lesson... Starts with a lot of pauses while we think of tooth puns, then we discuss Glastonbury, then we recap something we’ve already recapped which is embarrassing for both of us.

    We hope you love it!

    To celebrate the podcast turning 2 years old (without missing a single episode if we might be permitted to toot our own trumpets for a red hot minute) we invited friend of the podcast Bec Hill on to the show to discuss her favourite part of science... teeth!

    Ron talks us through mammalian teeth and how mammals have the most specific and interesting teeth in evolution, while Laura sends us on a wild journey through some of the best and grossest teeth in the wider animal kingdom. We hope you love this very special episode celebrating all things daft about Lexx Education and teeth!

    Hello and welcome to not just another episode of Lexx Education, but a special guest episode!

    Today, we celebrate two years of Lexx Education with a fantastic guest, the brilliant Bec Hill! Join Laura, Ron, and Bec as they dive into the fascinating world of teeth. From the evolution of mammalian teeth to the bizarre and wonderful dental structures found in the animal kingdom, this episode is packed with intriguing facts and hilarious banter.

    Laura shares some of the most peculiar teeth in the animal world, including the crab eater seal, dragonfish, sheepshead fish, and the parrotfish. Meanwhile, Ron provides insight into the unique dentition of mammals and the evolutionary history of teeth.

    Bec Hill, an avid teeth enthusiast, brings her own quirky perspective and shares her experiences with dental work and her passion for collecting teeth. The trio also discuss the lamprey eel, sea urchins, the cookie-cutter shark, and the extinct helicoprion, among others.

    It's an episode filled with laughter, learning, and a deep appreciation for the wonders of nature's dental designs. So, sit back, relax, and enjoy this special anniversary edition of Lexx Education!

  • Hello and welcome to a new episode of the wonderful podcast, your favourite podcast, Lexx Education!

    Ron here! Writing the show notes for the first time, is anyone even reading this? Would be interesting to know... leave a 5 star review and let us know if you're here reading this!

    This episode is our first chemistry revision episode so we are in the realm of good Ron notes, no Laura notes, and a barrel of laughs for everyone involved. Ron is more impressed and proud of Laura then he has ever been.

    Your lovely science legends cover the atom and it's make-up, the periodic table, and the history of the understanding of the structure of an atom. It's not all science though, there's a healthy dollop of nonsense as well including Ron's favourite bit which is where we (they? what tense are we in here?) find out what their ringtones are.

  • Hello and welcome to another FANTASTIC episode of Lexx Education - the comedy science podcast where comedian Laura Lexx attempts to relearn the GCSE science syllabus with her normal, nerdy brother Ron!

    This week we go from solo Laura to same room episode as Laura and Ron hang out on the floor of Laura's office and argue revision amongst many other subjects.

    The science is mainly circuits revision and the nonsense is Beauty and the Beast, falafel and Korea.

  • Hello and welcome to another FANTASTIC episode of Lexx Education! It's the comedy science podcast where comedian Laura Lexx tries to learn science from her non-comedian younger brother Ron.

    This week it's a bit chaotic... it begins with chaos and ends with chaos. It’s also a rain episode! But in Brighton only. Starts as same room, then becomes not same room, and then the intro is recorded before the quiz?! What the hell is going on?!

    First up we discuss Ricky Gervais and his works and what we liked and don’t like. Why do we do this? Well because Laura briefly gets distracted by Stephen Merchant and so obviously… what else are you going to do?

    Laura discusses a podcast she is listening to about English and the history of the language. It’s called The History of English Podcast by Kevin Stroud and can be found here: https://historyofenglishpodcast.com/

    This science is largely about poop and how to get it out of the water.

    Towards the end we get invaded by CotP and perhaps it's self indulgent to leave it in but we thought it was cute.

    Hello and welcome to another episode of Lexx Education, the comedy science podcast where comedian Laura Lexx tries to learn science from her non-comedian brother Ron.

    In this chaotic yet charming episode, Laura and Ron find themselves in the same room, which leads to plenty of sibling banter and interruptions. Laura shares her thoughts on listening to more professional podcasts like "The Rest is History," and Ron reminisces about his solo intros and outros from last week.

    The episode dives into a variety of topics, from the logistics of delivering flyers for the Green Party to the intricacies of water treatment and life cycle assessments (LCAs). Laura and Ron discuss the environmental impacts of plastic and paper bags, and Laura even pitches her new invention for hassle-free flyer delivery.

    They also touch on the fascinating world of etymology, with Laura recommending "The History of English Podcast." The episode is peppered with amusing anecdotes, including a discussion about Stephen Merchant's unique look and a nostalgic nod to the Harry Potter Puppet Pals.

    This week, Ron is flying solo for the intros and outros as Laura is off the grid somewhere in a forest. Despite Laura's absence, Ron manages to keep the show rolling with his usual quirky charm.

    Today's episode is a classic Lexx Education experience filled with Laura's wild guesses and Ron's patient explanations. They dive into the world of genetic engineering, discussing everything from the lock-and-key method of enzymes to the benefits and risks of genetically modified organisms (GMOs). Along the way, they touch on topics like golden rice, insulin production, and the ethical concerns surrounding GMOs.

    As always, there's plenty of sibling banter, including a Minecraft update where Laura and her husband become religious pioneers in a sunflower field, worshipping horses and shunning sheep. The episode also features nostalgic discussions about 90s cartoons, adding a touch of whimsy to the science-heavy content.

  • Hello cool kids! It's a new science lesson for people who hate science and love siblings!

    Physics recap.

    Laura tells Ron all about her holiday to Lanzarote - including the plum, the Elvis impersonator, and the landscape of Lanzarote. Ron won’t talk about his weekend because at this point he was still keeping the reunion with Judith under wraps.

    Ron is pretty distracted by sand timers throughout the podcast.

    They try a little bit hard to focus on recapping circuits but they’re distracted by EVERYTHING including a pigeon sending an email.

    They recap all the parts of a circuit and the words and symbols required to talk about circuits and the formulas for working out current, resistance and voltage.\

    Welcome back to another uproarious episode of Lex Education, the comedy science podcast where comedian Laura Lexx attempts to absorb scientific knowledge from her non-comedian, Bristolian, headphone-clad, bearded brother, Ron. This week, Laura shares her life-changing salad recipe, and Ron discusses his recent stag do preparations, complete with sand timers.

    Laura recounts her trip to Lanzarote, describing the surreal experience of staying in an adults-only hotel that felt more like a retirement home. She also details the volcanic landscape and her adventures with an Elvis impersonator. Meanwhile, Ron updates us on his summer woes and his cat, Gnocchi.

    In the science segment, the siblings attempt to recap physics, specifically focusing on current, resistance, and potential difference. Laura struggles but eventually nails the formula for these concepts, using her unique logic. The episode is filled with distractions, including sand timers and pigeon emails, making for a chaotic but entertaining listen.

  • It's essentially about resources and water but Ron made precious few notes and only gave it to Laura to upload with an hour to spare so she's not listened to it and therefore cannot write this well. Enjoy.

    Welcome to episode 101 of Lexx Education, where the Lexx siblings delve into the depths of Room 101 to banish their most loathed elements of science. From the perplexing world of physics to the occasional disdain for chemistry, and even the grievances against biology, this episode is a cathartic journey through the academic annoyances that ruffle their feathers. Not to mention, they throw in their frustrations about Thursdays, social media promotion, and the unavoidable mouth noises that come with podcasting. Join Ron and Laura as they unleash a torrent of comedic gripes and see if your pet peeves made the list. Vicky Sykes, our gatekeeper for this episode, ensures everything is securely locked away in Room 101. Tune in, have a laugh, and maybe find some solace in shared irritation. And to our loyal patrons and listeners, we appreciate you more than words can express—even if we're a bit under the weather while doing so. Class dismissed!
