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 squabble.

💬 Show Notes
In this lively episode of Lexx Education, comedian Laura Lexx and her younger brother Ron dive headfirst into the chaotic world of physics, and let’s just say, it’s a bit of a bumpy ride. From discussing their latest antics and upcoming plans to getting sidetracked by everything from Cillian Murphy’s chiselled jaw to the concept of precision versus accuracy, this episode is packed with humour and sibling banter.
As they attempt to tackle the dry and daunting subject of physics, the duo explores energy measurements, kilowatt hours, and the intricacies of errors in scientific experiments. But don’t be fooled; amidst the science, there are plenty of tangents and laughs, including a cheeky discussion about Laura’s new book idea and their shared childhood memories.
Join them for a rollercoaster of an episode that’s equal parts educational and entertaining, and perhaps a little bit chaotic. Will they ever get to the actual physics? Tune in to find out!
00:00 - Welcome to another episode of Lex Education. It's the comedy science podcast
02:34 - Welcome to the podcast, everyone. I'm going to Scotland next week
05:51 - Ron had an idea for a new book while doing a workout
11:22 - Ron says he manspreaded on his knee during a podcast interview
13:36 - We're doing physics today, Laura. What were we looking at last time
15:23 - Light bulb energy measurement is a joule per second
18:21 - You want to call your next Stand up tour The Errors Tour
22:17 - We are gonna do an episode on Taylor Swift. It's the best segment that we do
24:19 - Child: Why is energy coming out of my house? I mean, going in
26:05 - Limitation of physical measurements affects how you measure things when doing experiments
29:57 - What is precision? A lack of errors. Something that's precise has fewer errors
31:47 - Ron: I was confusing accuracy with precision, so what's accuracy
36:25 - True repeatability is how easy it is to repeat an experiment
37:55 - What's resolution in measurements? Um, how defined the rate of measurement is
41:08 - There are two different types of error, Laura: human error and systematic errors
45:06 - Ron says he did a quiz show at the Edinburgh Festival
46:57 - Short quiz about the Ukraine war, only four questions really
49:31 - Laura asks Ron what's the difference between precision and accuracy
55:14 - How did you ever lose this game? What game? The. The Ant thing. That's the sound of the ant, Ron
58:56 - A random error is something like a human error that doesn't follow any pattern
01:01:23 - Should we just stop making the podcast one? Is that where we're at
01:05:27 - All these patient people who have been funding this podcast want a simple thank you
