6 months of Lexx Education! Thank you all so much for all the support and love as we fight to get this bad boy off the ground! She's a beautiful craft but the conditions for new podcasts aren't easy and we appreciate all your love, support and shares as we try to take off. We feel like 6 months is a really big milestone though, and we couldn't have got here without you. You're all wonderful but a particularly big shout out this week to Carole, who loves Bunsen so much she now has him permanently inked on her arm: that is dedication Carole and we are so bowled over by your love for the pod! The siblings discuss surprising TV, and TV they refuse to be surprised by. There’s a smooth segue into songs you maybe sang at Primary School. There’s school assembly nostalgia chat. Honestly, it kind of takes them a while to get to the biology if we’re honest. But then the science siblings settle into some plant tissue plant biology. Ron opens up conversation by asking Laura “What is a plant?” and her first attempts are “it’s nonverbal without a face” so you can fill in the blanks as to where the rest of the episode goes. Laura is distracted by apples, Ron has some issues with a fly. From there on out it’s a pretty friendly journey through plant biology: xylem, phloem, lignin… all sorts of things. It really falls apart in the quiz after what had essentially been, a really lovely episode. Here’s what we were talking about in terms of whales and carbon dioxide: https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20210119-why-saving-whales-can-help-fight-climate-change Here's the link to the confusingly named ko-fi page in case you want a last minute Christmas hat: https://ko-fi.com/lauralexx/shop See you next week for the festive end of term madness!
