Lexx Education

History time again folks! And we’re talking about the royal court. It’s an early record, with an ill Ron and a semi-patient Laura. Ron is quiet and Laura is cross, but we’re having a lovely time learning more and more about Elizabeth and her mates.  What makes a court? What happened to croquet? What’s an earl? Why were the Tudors so shaky beans? Who was banging who and why? Shitties? But anyway, n...

Oh you'd better believe it's low energy this week! Sure, there's been no break in the podcast going out but there's been a beefy gap in records and you can feel that recalcitrant energy in every syllabus of the science siblings' inability to be enthused about triglycerol.

Merry Christmas you parthenogenic animals! This week we have birthed you a very topical episode all about the most festive thing you can imagine: virgin births! This week Ron and Laura explore the concept of parthenogenesis and have a look at some ways of procreating that are non-typical compared to most species on the planet. We wish you a very merry Christmas - what better way to get in the spir...

In a cool and unusual Christmas episode your favourite science buddies are chatting through the logistics of running your own toy factory in the North Pole. Laura has her hard hat on, and her clipboard ready, as she fills the role of foreman for the Pole while Ron feeds her wild and whacky decisions into a special spreadsheet that he made to calculate the numbers. What Christmas obviously needs mo...

Hello and welcome to Lexx Education, the comedy science podcast where comedian Laura Lexx tries to learn science from her nerdy, normal younger brother Ron! It’s the last proper lesson of term before they have a little festive distraction piece with some end of term Christmas episodes. With that in mind, Ron has planned some revision to make sure that what Laura has so far learned in A Level 2.0 h...

We start off on rocky haircuts and the Tate Britain, before a delightful segue into our second history lesson! Last time we covered Henry the Eighth to do the build up to Lizzie 1 and now we’re on to the lass herself Elizabeth the 1st of England. England! Engerlaaaand!  Again, there is a sense of lovely harmony in the history lessons. No need to scrap.  It’s almost Christmas time! Get ready for no...

So, to begin with Laura is having some bathroom light trouble. This trouble is exacerbated by the fact that Laura is short. Fast forward just a couple of minutes a few tangents and suddenly the science siblings are investigating the history of the Philippines. You work out how and why. Anyway, hello and welcome to Lexx Education the comedy science podcast where comedian Laura Lexx tries to learn s...

Welcome to a swell new episode of Lexx Education, the comedy science podcast where soon to be hot 40 year old Ron, teaches worldly comedian Laura Lexx currently A-level Biology! Ron is in Somerset for his 30th birthday, Laura is back from Scotland. We’re talking through tests for sugars, specifically reducing and non-reducing sugars. Laura’s chariot methods worked and she actually remembered some...

Hello and welcome to another spectacular episode of Lexx Education! It's the cult classic comedy science podcast where comedian Laura Lexx tries to learn science from her nerdy normal younger brother Ron! It all started way back in the day when pesky Ron moved to Brussels and Laura was worried she'd miss him and he'd stop talking to her so she forced him to start a podcast. Cut to over 3 years lat...

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No! It’s a fresh take on the hit podcast, Lexx Education! Science, shmience, it’s history time. Season 3 is a bit different, and 1 in 4 lessons Laura is going to be teaching Ron history.  We’re starting in familiar territory for Laura, and we’re talking sort of about Elizabeth 1. Well, we’re talking about her parents and the cultural atmosphere at the time. It’s a same...

Happy Halloween and welcome to Lexx Education... it's the spooky comedy podcast where comedian Laura Lexx tries to learn spooky science from her nerdy normal younger brother Ron! This week as it's halloween and Ron's all time favourite time of year for podcasting, they are talking spooky stuff! And we're doing a listener suggestion this week. A few weeks back Laura tried and failed to give blood a...

It’s another season 3 episode, and yet again, we are picking up biology from where we left it last week. We’re building, growing, we’re living and learning. It’s glucose again, alpha vs beta (and I’m not taking about Ron vs Laura). Laura struggles to comprehend tetrahedral shapes, we talk more about isomers and chirality. It’s fiery and fun. You love season 3, we can tell and we love it to and we...

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 nerdy, normal non-comedian brother Ron! This week they're settling in to the new A level routine and Ron is doing his bestest to get monomers and polymers into Laura's head. The idea is they'll breeze through monomers and polymers and then can focus on r...

It’s the first episode of season 3! We’ve sacked off chemistry and physics and we’re here with our biology blinkers on. However, we start off the episode with a bit of a Duolingo tirade. It’s the return of Gnocchi, it’s the return of Brussels, it’s the return of focus and love of pod. Then we talk about Laura’s bad week, because she has had a very bad week. The science in question is a topic intro...

Welcome to Lexx Education - it's the comedy science podcast where comedian Laura Lexx tries to learn science from her nerdy younger brother Ron! This week it's the last of the stock take! Laura and Ron have been weighing up exactly how badly A Level is sinking in to the mulch of Laura's brain and are developing some shakeups to the format post GCSE. In this episode they just test just to be comple...

The Coceo’s are back in business mode, starting with a retrospective of the Lexx podcasting empire, and then into some really collaborative and, to be honest, brilliant science. The grindset, mindset, never be kindset is becoming quite kind actually.  We’re back on the stock take, this time taking a look at the success of the chemistry teaching so far and SPOILER ALERT it’s real bad. Real real bad...

It’s 8am on a Monday morning and two cool kids sit down to record their killer podcast. They are two absolute CEOs of podcasting… Laura and Ron. Siblings with that killer instinct for grind and mindsets. Gone is the old podcast where two friendly kids muck about around a science syllabus and here comes CEO podcasting from the people who brought you Lexx Ed the old version. Now it’s Lexx Ed the new...

We start off today’s episode with a lot of dog chaos, before veering into Harry Potter castings via Sister of the Podcast’s hair. It’s a special episode today, we’re doing a surprise pop quiz today to check in with Laura’s knowledge and understanding of A-Level so far. SPOILERS but not great. Sister of the Podcast, fan favourite, and all-round wonderful human being, joins us for an episode and we...

Heads up everyone - it's a weird one! 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 nerdy younger normal brother Ron! This week is weird... first Laura is away for the introduction so it's solo Ron. He always has a clanky energy about him and this week is no exception. If you like gentle stumbling t...

Viewing discretion is advised, this episode about enzymes and the induced-fit model starts with a 10 minute argument about Laura and Ron’s relationship and how people spend time together and communicate with each other. However, when not squabbling, your favourite podcasters cover good science and have a lovely time. Recorded in a kooky order, it’s an extravaganza of Lexx Ed nonsense. Enjoy! Learn...

Laura tells Ron all about the new show coming up called The Paper - set in the world of The Office. In the lesson there’s a bit more pub quiz to finish off… this time it’s flags! There’s a huge meandering wander through the tea towel, through Stockholm Syndrome and through reminiscences of Bristol Harbour Festival before they end up anywhere. It feels like they might veer back into the big argumen...

C-I-T-Y you can see why, these doves the neat doves smart and streetwise. CITY DOVES. The show begins with Laura have had an hour off and so is in a nice relaxed mood. She's been watching Clarkson's Farm and the science siblings have a quick chat about how it's got a bit stilted lately. Then, they move on to the hot topic of Laura RSVPing to Ron's birthday party. The actual science is about co-val...

Hello and welcome to another episode of Lexx Education! This week featuring a surprise interruption by a meat and fish guy which we've decided to leave in, in a move that prompted Tom to call us "despicable people". So that's nice, isn't it? The science is enzymes and active sites and all that kind of stuff but the real meat and bones of the potato podcast is the squabbles, the love and the siblin...

Cool beans gang, here’s another episode of your favourite ever podcast, Lexx Education. We start off in the realms of new dog chat, we finally conceive Pod Michael Murray, crawl spaces, and then we delve into the misty murks of antimatter whatever the bloody hell that is.  Fair warning, there’s a lot of ramble about a pub quiz which may or may not become the new Rob Schneider’s The Animal. Plus a...
