Lexx Education
Hosted by lexxeducation · EN
Fire up your Bunsen burners and join award-winning comedian Laura Lexx as she attempts to pass her Science GCSEs (all over again) with the help of nerdy younger brother, Ron.
Every week the squabbling siblings dissect a topic from the baddest educational document on the planet - the UK’s National Curriculum.
Microbiology, magnetism, manganese…can long-suffering Ron explain atomic structures or will Laura be forever banging her head against the periodic table?
Whether you love thermodynamics - or ridiculous family dynamics - Lexx Education takes you back to your school days to find out whether it’s possible to relearn your GCSEs…or be forever doomed to looking things up on Wikipedia.

1w ago00:49:48Tap to summarizeHello and welcome to, what is, in Laura's opinion, one of the funniest episodes of Lexx Education we've had in a while. We again try to conquer the world of proteins and enzymes and whatnot but end up worrying about causing the downfall of civilisation due to accidental bird poop ingestion and whether the Rolling Stones should have mainly sung about cousins.

2w ago00:52:56Tap to summarizeWelcome buddies to another lovely episode friends, and if I don't say so myself we are currently in a spate - a spate of what? Well, true fans would know what I'm referencing. It's a history episode and we are locked in on Elizabethan fashion and architecture. Lovely stuff! What's your favourite fashion from back in the day? Have you ever worn a ruff? Pot pourri in your cod piece? Big up Sarah McQuaid! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

3w ago00:48:57Tap to summarizeHello and welcome to another episode of Lexx Education! It's the comedy science podcast where this week the science takes a back seat to two siblings catching up... we know for you there's been no break but for us there was a little intermission in recording while Laura and Ron travelled separately and so in this episode they fill each other in on their ramblings. We cover Laura's accidental move to the far right, Ron's latest night train, why he hates France, why Laura hates Cornwall and much much more. Next week we'll be back on the history bus. Thanks for listening - we hope you love us! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

4w ago00:44:32Tap to summarizeIt’s Mother of the Podcast’s birthday (on recording, not on release and she’s very sad that none of you sent cards). It’s a lovelier episode than pesto is a lovely sauce, Laura is fresh off the place from Kilkenny and Ron is staying with parents of the podcast and sick of the TV. We hope you love us!

May 2600:41:48Tap to summarizeThe earliest episode they have ever recorded! Laura is croaking and not really fully awake, Ron is a little more peppy and delighted to reveal his Gavin and Stacey news... Laura and Ron commit to yet another watchalong on the patreon. The science... well it's some of the clearest they've done recently. Still looking at the structure of an amino acid but they keep it short and sweet before too much arguing can commence!

May 1100:45:17Tap to summarizeHello and welcome to Lexx Education! The comedy science podcast where comedian Laura Lexx is supposed to be learning science with her brother but ultimately, neither of them are trying very hard. This week, with Laura starting to recover from the heavy work onslaught they attempt a little bit more protein and amino acid but ultimately they still kind of do very little science and instead waffle on. But in an enjoyable way. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

May 300:51:45Tap to summarizeLaura’s back in the UK, jet lagged and angry at Shanghai Airlines but the gang are back in the same timezone and it takes very little persuading on either side for it to become a peppy mess around episode. We play Who Reckons They Might Want A Lot Of Money! Or whatever this knockoff millionaire thing was called. It goes exactly how you think it might go. Enjoy, normal scheduling will resume once we are out of Australia’s shadow. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Apr 2700:52:22Tap to summarizeHello 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 of the Australian episodes and Laura is in precisely no mood for science so no science happens. Instead they reminisce about school days, chat about their top fives and generally messa around. Light, breezy and silly - everything you need in a Monday. Learn more about your ad choices.

Apr 1900:54:42Tap to summarizeLaura’s in Australia’s last metres and today’s show is really demonstrating that. We enter with a careening chat going around the houses topics wise.But otherwise it’s a history episode! And we’re somehow still learning about Elizabeth 1 (Ron writing these notes). A host of new characters, Icky and the Worst, Liquorice and Beans, the Nerdosphere lads lads lads. Anyway, learn more! Love you! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
