Lexx Education

Ok, cards on the table... this recording was done the day Laura was leaving for New Zealand and her absolute terror at the impending flight and amount of gigs to be done left her in no fit state to do science. So, Ron bravely stepped up and decided to distract her with silly games and messing about... a real classic of the genre. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The gang barrel into this episode weird and dilapidated because of just recording a quiz featuring moles leading to the shortest ever recording before a break. It’s a physics episode, and we’re moving into new territory. We cover the 4 fundamental forces of the universe and subatomic particles, quarks, hadrons, and their charges and what not. Come find us on Patreon, Discord and maybe somewhere el...

Hello and welcome to another episode of Lexx Education! This week ron is off galavanting so it's some solo intros and outros from a soothing sounding Laura who is actually very stressed at the moment but covering it up well for podcasting purposes. We’re doing lipids, and we’re no nonsense straight into the hog. You want science? We'll give you science. Science til your sick of it. In terms of the...

This week it’s another slow start into the science… I suppose actually it might be better to stop writing this here and just tell you if we ever jump straight into the science. There’s a long section at the beginning where Ron appeals for a job. A sassy job. There’s a recap on Standard Form that initially overwhelms Laura’s smooth pea brain but then she rises to the challenge like a magnificent ph...

Ski Free, Rodents Revenge, Digging Jim and all sorts of fun get discussed and there’s a lot of sighing. Then they argue...

 Welcome to another episode of Lexx Education, and a particularly rambling one. An episode that is much more dog food than it is paracetamol which is something that you’ll understand once you’ve heard this episode.  We are doing physics and the physics content is some of the most boring science we’ve ever done and the science buds are feeeeeeling it. It is very nice and funny with a dash of squabb...

Hello! Welcome to 2025 Lab Rats! Here we are scooting into another fresh year and we kick off 2025 with the results of our chemistry higher tier exam. How did Laura do? Well, even after listening you may not be completely sure to be honest.
