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.

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-ticketsAnd you can support us on patreon.com/lexxeducation for just £3 per month in exchange for two bonus episodes and access to our discord.

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.

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.00:00 "&gt;Lex Education comedy science podcast comes out on end of term01:55 "&gt;I would love to know how many times you actually watched Mister Bean05:47 "&gt;Laura: I love Mister Bean.

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.

Hey faithful listeners!As part of our patreon series, Laura is taking the reigns and talking Ron through the science of Laughter as per Dr Robert Provine in his book "Laughter". Next week on the patreon feed we are releasing episode 3 of this series and so we thought we might try and tempt a fe wmore of you to join the patreon subscribers by giving you this little taste of what you're missing out on...We drop two bonus patreon episodes per month and they range from DetentRons where Laura has to do solo research and report back, to sessions with Agony Dad, to supply teaching with guests like Dara O'Briain. Every episode is different and exciting and can be yours for only £3 a month which is the only money Laura and Ron receive for doing the podcast and makes a huge difference to them!To join the patreon just visit patreon.com/lexxeducation and join the Lab Rat tier!

So here we go, we're entering another redo. Laura's fingers and wandering brain have struck again and the episode that was Identifying Common Gases only exists somewhere in the deleted file realm. Perhaps one day a science will exist that can find it but it is not this idea. SO, in lieu of that, the buff siblings from Somerset have re-recorded (corded?) and here present the exact same science again but this time with a lot more bickering and an absolute storm of extra banter that in no way relates to the science whatsoever.Don't forget to send your tea towel pictures in to [email protected] and support us on patreon at patreon.com/lexxeducation. Also, buy your Leicester tickets you cowards.

It might do!Laura has been an arse lately and this episode really reflects Laura and Ron's bitterest feelings about each other. It's DNA and inheritance and stuff and is the last episode for a while that is not a redo so enjoy!

This week Laura has a very shiny moisturised face and the effects of the advent calendar are discussed in detail but Ron fails to finish the round up.Shout out to Will Duggan and his water flosser.We're looking at 6.6.2.3 for the numbers fans and it’s got the energy of two people killing time waiting for a bus, rather than two people in charge of running a science podcast that could be full of content.This week is heavily featuring dog of the podcast Maki having a little bark and Child of the Podcast saying hiya.There’s a miniscule amount of science but imagine their usual apathy multiplied by the fact that they’ve already covered this. It’s basically about 4 minutes of the episode and most of it’s in the quiz. We’re looking at properties of electromagnetic waves.Email your Lexx Education tea towel images to [email protected] and don't forget to get your Leicester Festival tickets here: https://comedy-festival.co.uk/events/lexx-education-live/

Hello and welcome to Lexx Education! It's the comedy science podcast where a sciencely challenged comedian, Laura Lexx, is trying to relearn the GCSE science triply syllabus from her brother and teacher Ron (one person).This week starts with a lot of chatter as Laura and Ron catch up post break for a holiday. Laura tells Ron all about seals and whether or not she would have sex with them and why she is angry with Cornwall.Then, as we get into the lesson, it with a lengthy chat about nothing as Ron feels the topic is very. It’s chemistry, they’re looking at chromatography. Laura plays with a guillotine while Ron blandly tries to explain the syllabus structure.&nbsp; Worst audio quality ever because Laura fights a guillotine for a long time. It's really one for the fans.In the outro, Laura and Ron pitch the idea of moving Christmas back a bit so that a little more of winter has been accomplished before the true misery of a Christmasless winter kicks in.Don't forget to buy tickets to our Leicester Festival show on 18th February... https://comedy-festival.co.uk/events/lexx-education-live/

Wayo! It's Lexx Education you eggloving mofos!It's biology this week so naturally we launch straight into the syllabus with absolutely no pre-amble or messing about... just kidding. No, of course we don't. Biology We begin with a long discussion about how Agony Dad sharpens his pencils. Then there is a meaty discussion of animated films and who should watch them.When we finally reach the science it's hormones, puberty, reproduction and the Lexx Education favourite subject: Eggs. Just a brother and a sister sitting around discussing reproduction and then their Dad unloading a dishwasher. Just what the podcasting world needed.
