Like many people, there are times when I need some cheering up - when I do, I turn to @lauralexx.bsky.social
Her clips, the wonderful Comedy Bureau and (of course) Lexx Education.
They never fail to make me feel better about the world.
Thanks Laura

There's a new series of The Comedy Bureau starting tomorrow. I'm really excited about it. Obviously, like most things I've ever made, it's got a hearty "meh" from the world, but I think it's good. Subscribe on your pod player if taking comedy too seriously interests you.

This is most likely the podcast you’ve always wanted but didn’t know existed. 188 episodes of indefinable sibling drama.

@lauralexx.bsky.social tries to retake her Science GCSEs—with help (and heckling) from her brother Ron. Expect microbiology, magnetism, and maximum sibling chaos. Can she crack the curriculum or flunk forever?

Discussing rocky haircuts & Tate Britain, before a delightful segue into our second history lesson! Last time they covered Henry the 8th to do the build up to Lizzie 1 and now on to the lass herself Elizabeth 1st

It's December
Time for the Christmas music to be dusted off
Time for the Sleigh Bells to be in the car at all times
and
above all else
It's time for the ultimate in Christmas music prep

With Tom Lehrer's passing, I suppose this is a moment to share the story of the prank he played on the National Security Agency, and how it went undiscovered for nearly 60 years.

A podcast that looks like it could be about science, but that's rarely the case as comedian @lauralexx.bsky.social tries to learn science (sometimes) from her (non comedian) brother (when he can be bothered to prepare a lesson).
Prepare for Sibling Bickery at it's finest

Also has THE nicest fanbase
Do you need a podcast that's relentlessly nice and also there's loads of it? How about this one where my (noncomedian) brother Ron tries to help me learn science and I scream at him?

Start at episode one and make your way through. It's a cult but like, a good one, you know?

I have a podcast (don't we all).

It's very lighthearted and nice... my real life (non comedian) brother Ron is teaching me science and I'm teaching him how to be obtuse.

When you decide to fall in love with Lexx Ed - START FROM EPISODE 1 AND WORK THROUGH... it works better that way. You'll see.

Sad to learn today of the passing of Mike Fielder, one-time conductor of South West Surrey Concert Band (SWSCB). An absolute legend in his time among all who knew him. Many happy memories of rehearsals and tours aboard during my teens. Enduring friendships made @trumpetmike.bsky.social 🫶🏻
