The Second Paella Calculation

 Laura: Hello and welcome to another episode of Lexx Education, the comedy science podcast, where comedian me, Laura Lexx tries to learn science from her normal interrupting brother.

Ron: On it's.

Laura: Hutch time.

Ron: Touch record.

Ron: It's a hutch today.

Laura: I was going to say Dr Hutchable, then.

Laura: Is that still allowed or is that cancelled?

Ron: Well, Bill Cosby's cancelled.

Laura: Yeah, Dr Huxtable is fine.

Ron: I don't think you can cancel a pun.

Ron: That's not happened.

Laura: Why would you start an episode of your podcast like that, Laura?

Laura: Who knows?

Ron: Anyway, not even a reference that I've never seen that show.

Laura: No, it's too old for you.

Ron: Yeah.

Ron: Did you watch that when you were yeah, young.

Ron: Wow.

Laura: I'm very old.

Laura: Yeah, very old.

Laura: I was in the first episode, I played Dr Hodgetville's mother Frieda.

Laura: It's very hot in the hutch it's hot in the hutch hello, Ron, how are you?

Ron: Yes, good, thanks.

Ron: How's it going?

Laura: Yeah, good.

Laura: We've had a tummy bug.

Ron: Yes, it's been poop fountains.

Laura: Oh, my God.

Laura: Not just poop.

Laura: There's vomit in every crack in our house.

Laura: Everything's been throwing up for four days, but it's finally passed.

Laura: Everything feels better and certain members of the family have stopped whining incessantly.

Laura: And I for 01:00 a.m.

Laura: Grateful that Tom has shut up.

Laura: It's very hot.

Ron: Yep.

Ron: Played rounders yesterday.

Laura: Whoa.

Laura: Was it good?

Laura: Did you win?

Ron: Well, the first game, we forgot to count the scores, so I don't know.

Ron: I don't think so.

Ron: The second game, several people tried to count and we realised that lots of people didn't actually know how you score in rounders.

Ron: And then the third game, we were very drunk.

Laura: Is it like it's one if you get all the way around, a half if you get round with stopping.

Ron: I don't think that's an official rule.

Laura: Oh, yeah.

Laura: Just a school rule to make you feel less bad about yourself.

Ron: Yeah, I think so, but I think that's w***.

Ron: Yeah, because it's well exciting when you're playing baseball on the Wi and then the bases are loaded and then you knock it out the park, you score four points.

Ron: That's like tension, that's baseball.

Ron: Yes, four points.

Laura: Do you get that for baseball?

Laura: If you hit it out the park?

Ron: No, if the bases are loaded and then you get everyone home.

Laura: Oh, I see.

Laura: Right.

Laura: I thought it was like a boundary, like in cricket.

Ron: No, that's cricket.

Laura: Yeah, but it's six if it doesn't hit the ground and it gets out the park.

Laura: Really?

Laura: Did you watch the first Ashes test?

Ron: No, why would I do that?

Laura: It's great.

Laura: I did.

Ron: You didn't watch it.

Laura: I listened to it.

Ron: Exactly.

Laura: Anyway, welcome to this week's episode.

Laura: It's physics this week.

Laura: Ron hasn't listened to this week's episode because, and I quote, it was hot on the train and so his ears melted.

Ron: I presume it was hot on the train.

Ron: I forgot it was very busy on the train.

Ron: People everywhere.

Laura: You could listen to it in headphones.

Laura: It wasn't like you have to listen to it out loud and say, gather around, everybody.

Laura: Yeah, you should have done that.

Laura: We could have had a lot of listeners.

Ron: Yeah.

Ron: And to get two trains so I was going to miss the second one.

Laura: Did you have to get the Tube across London?

Ron: Only padders to farrington.

Laura: Not oh, how did you do that?

Ron: Circle.

Laura: Circle.

Laura: It's just a straight.

Ron: Yeah, they're straight from the same never.

Laura: Go in that bit of London very much.

Ron: Yeah.

Laura: Anyway, that's train.

Laura: Should we put train sound effects under this?

Laura: What train are you on?

Laura: Like the Smith rain.

Laura: John let's go, everyone.

Ron: It's on.

Laura: It'S.

Laura: Dr.

Laura: HODGET.

Ron: Stop.

Ron: Why is that your reference for this?

Laura: I don't know.

Laura: It's a good name.

Laura: Huxtable.

Laura: You don't hear it much, do you?

Laura: Yeah, but.

Ron: Let'S steer clear of the sex offender.

Laura: Yeah.

Laura: Okay.

Ron: Hutch will fix it.

Laura: Hey.

Laura: Oh, no, it's going to be today.

Laura: We're doing an episode with Dara next week, but that feels like a terrible segue now.

Laura: Hey, clean sound effect.

Laura: Let's put a sound effect in now.

Laura: That just like a sore bass sound effect.

Laura: Gelato.

Laura: Okay.

Ron: Milk and eggs, b****.

Laura: Hey, good one, that's in this episode.

Ron: Is it?

Ron: Yeah.

Laura: You're going to hear that again?

Ron: It's a quote.

Laura: Yeah.

Ron: What's got, pilgrim.

Laura: Oh, I haven't died in it.

Ron: Gelato isn't vegan.

Ron: It's milk and eggs, b****.

Ron: When the vegan police come.

Ron: I love Scott Pilgrim.

Laura: Scotch Pilgrim.

Ron: Dr.

Ron: Scotch, pilgrim.

Ron: Balls.

Laura: It might be too hot to do this.

Laura: We can't do an episode like this.

Laura: Look, we turn one next week and that's cool.

Laura: The 4 July we launched.

Laura: So next week is our first birthday.

Laura: To celebrate, we'll be doing a full episode with none other than the wonderful Dara Obrian, who.

Laura: It's not recorded yet, which is making me so anxious.

Laura: But we are going to record it this week and it's all going to be fine.

Laura: Laura and there's absolutely no way next week's episode starts with me going.

Laura: So, due to logistics, this is not the episode with Dara, right?

Ron: Yeah.

Ron: We've bigged it up too much now.

Laura: Yeah.

Laura: He has said publicly he's doing it anyway.

Laura: This week, though, we're doing physics.

Laura: We're looking at distance and displacement.

Laura: It's more scalars and vectors.

Laura: I know it's not the news anybody was hoping for, but it is going to happen.

Laura: Let's go through last week's titles quickly before we get into the lesson.

Laura: Last week's title options, if you were trying to guess them, are still on sentence number one.

Laura: Ron isn't looking at his notes.

Ron: I've got the register up.

Ron: Hang on.

Laura: Why don't you just put them in the same document?

Ron: Is this 54?

Ron: I hate you, 52.

Laura: You know, your lack of effort for this podcast, that's how I feel about the science.

Ron: Standing in the Kit, is with this.

Laura: 154.

Ron: All right, hang on.

Ron: Okay, got it.

Ron: Which one did you say?

Laura: The first one.

Ron: John I don't think you did say that.

Laura: I did.

Ron: Say it again.

Laura: Still on sentence number one, then.

Ron: That's not episode 54.

Laura: No, this is episode 54 and the title options are in the intro outro.

Laura: No.

Ron: Leaf'S hot now.

Laura: Hi.

Laura: Sorry, the war's still going on.

Ron: Wow, you got a job, kid.

Laura: Clomiclon, cremo, chlorim.

Laura: Those are the possible episode titles for last week.

Laura: Honestly, why'd you listen to this podcast?

Laura: Grow up.

Laura: Right, we're doing physics now.

Laura: It's so hot in here.

Laura: Is the sound of a hottie chalky being stirred.

Laura: Ron, you said you were going to have a chicken.

Laura: Sammy.

Ron: Sammy no, and you know that.

Laura: What a goblin you are.

Ron: Rather than making myself a sandwich, I just ate all the skin of the chicken.

Laura: Just stood at the fridge, savaging a chicken carpet.

Ron: It's not even in the fridge.

Laura: It's been so hot today, Ron.

Laura: I can't believe you guys ate raw chicken off the barbecue and I had fully vegetarian food and I'm the one with a dodgy tummy.

Laura: Yeah.

Ron: Have you had a dodgy tummy before the vegetarian food?

Laura: I always have a dodgy tummy, but it should have gone away as a favour to me.

Ron: Bottom feeders don't get dodgy tummies.

Laura: No.

Laura: Like, foxes, I think, must always have stomachache, because if you let a look at their s****, they're so horrible.

Laura: If I did a s*** that was that nasty, I'd have had, like, a boiling tum tum for, like, an hour beforehand.

Ron: Yeah, I don't think my loop ins.

Laura: This year, right, and I couldn't get it out without disturbing the loop in, so I sort of leave it and as it deteriorated, just what was left was just a full green sponge.

Laura: You got to s*** out a sponge and not have tummy ache for but.

Ron: I don't think that foxes should be the yardstick by which we measure our intestinal health.

Laura: No, I agree, actually.

Laura: There's a physics episode that's probably the only thing I will agree with you on, but I do agree with you on that.

Ron: Yeah.

Ron: You're going to f****** hate this episode.

Laura: Oh, am I?

Laura: Is it crud physics again?

Ron: Crud.

Ron: It's all f****** crud.

Laura: Life is crud.

Ron: Life is a pin.

Laura: But same room episode.

Laura: What just happened was Ron picked up his water, the coaster came, stuck to it, then he held it up for so long that the coaster fell down, causing Ron to jump, throw the water all over the floor, and now Mackie is in here laughing the water off the floor.

Laura: It was good.

Laura: Why is there a screw on the floor?

Ron: This is not the soundscape for this podcast.

Laura: Look, people said they don't like it being slick.

Laura: Well, I suppose the listeners we've got don't like that.

Laura: I suppose there are a few people that have tried it and gone, It's not for me.

Laura: Back to no such thing as a fish.

Laura: Yeah, they like it slick.

Ron: Nerds.

Ron: Right, Laura.

Ron: Forces in motion.

Laura: Hotty chalky I am going to need a proper dinner, too.

Laura: Don't let me have this and then think I don't need food.

Ron: By proper dinner, do you mean actual food or do you mean something that comes in a bag you've eaten for the last few days?

Laura: Sorry, Mr Chicken Skin.

Laura: Are you lecturing me on proper food?

Ron: It's the most nutritious part of the chicken.

Ron: The nutrients come from the outside.

Laura: They get pizza for dinner last night.

Ron: Yeah, but the day before that, you had, like, brioche.

Laura: But we had curry at lunchtime.

Ron: Yeah, we had a barbecue this lunchtime.

Laura: Yeah.

Ron: I'm just mocking you for eating crisps for dinner, mate.

Laura: I might have eaten a cheesestring in the night last night.

Laura: There's just a cheesestring wrappers appeared on my bedside table and I don't think it was there the night before.

Laura: Surely if I'd sleep walked all the way downstairs and got a Cheestring and then taken it back to bed to eat it, I'd have some hazy memory of that.

Laura: How does sleepwalking work?

Ron: Forces and motion.

Laura: Oh, stop it.

Ron: Now, you're not going to like this, but we're getting back into the whole scalar vector.

Laura: Oh, my God.

Laura: Why, though?

Laura: Surely that that's dead.

Laura: I stopped in to see Gabrielle tonight.

Ron: I don't know who Gabrielle is.

Laura: Dreams can come true look at me, baby I'm with you and you know you got to heaven know you got to be strong bet she's playing the.

Ron: Cricket club in Taunton.

Laura: So much going on in the family.

Laura: WhatsApp?

Laura: One sister's at an airport, we just dropped her off.

Laura: Dad's gone to see Gabrielle.

Ron: Maybe they're seeing Lionel Ritchie.

Laura: Oh, is she supporting Lionel Ritchie?

Ron: She's supporting Lionel?

Ron: Yes.

Ron: St James Street, Taunton.

Ron: Somerset County Cricket Club.

Ron: Can you get off your phone, please, you're googling?

Laura: What's going on at Somerset County Cricket Club?

Ron: Shut your mouth.

Ron: So we're doing forces, emotion.

Laura: Can we just not, though?

Ron: We're going back.

Laura: Scala is one type of thing and Vector is the other one.

Laura: And why do we need to know anything else about them?

Ron: We're going to recover it.

Laura: Why?

Ron: Because it comes up in the syllabus again and that's the format.

Laura: Oh, my God.

Laura: There's so much chocolate in the bottom of my hoddy chalky.

Ron: So, Laura, distance is how far an object moves.

Laura: Don't take my mug away.

Ron: Distance.

Laura: Well, that's not going to make me want to concentrate.

Laura: Ow.

Ron: Ow.

Laura: Don't flick me in the temple, actually, where I'm sunburned.

Laura: My God.

Laura: Listen.

Laura: I won.

Laura: Listening.

Laura: Scalar is a force to be reckoned with.

Ron: Distance is how far an object moves.

Laura: Yeah.

Laura: Who cares?

Ron: Distance does not involve direction, does it has to.

Ron: No, it can't move.

Laura: Not in a direction.

Ron: Yes, but 1 mile is a distance.

Laura: Yeah, it will have no.

Laura: Yes.

Ron: It doesn't necessarily have it.

Laura: It will have.

Laura: How can you go a mile?

Ron: You could run in a f****** circle.

Laura: Yeah.

Laura: And so the direction you're going has been changing.

Ron: Yeah.

Ron: But you haven't changed.

Ron: If you ran a mile in a circle and ended up where you stopped, you have not gone anywhere.

Laura: No.

Laura: Well, by the end of it, you haven't.

Laura: But all the way through it, you.

Ron: Were the distance you've travelled has been a mile.

Laura: Yeah.

Ron: The vector quantity, which has a direction, is zero, because it ended up where.

Laura: You but the mile still went in a direction.

Ron: Distance is a scalar quantity.

Ron: Now, vector.

Laura: Displacement includes, invector gadget.

Ron: Seven minutes.

Ron: Is that in?

Laura: What do you mean?

Laura: Is that?

Ron: It felt long.

Laura: Do you remember when we said, are you sure we're both in the right mental health space to do an episode?

Laura: And we were like, I feel really good, to be honest.

Ron: Then we did the other stuff and I ate the chicken skin.

Laura: My hoddy Chuckies worked a treat.

Laura: Do you want a hobby, Chucky?

Laura: Make you one.

Laura: Salted caramel?

Ron: I'm okay, thanks.

Laura: You'd love it.

Ron: I don't want one.

Laura: It's really hot.

Laura: It was too hot.

Ron: Displacement involves both the distance an object moves measured in a straight line.

Laura: Yeah.

Laura: Don't throw headphones.

Ron: Laura.

Laura: I'm getting my notepad.

Ron: This is going to be the third physics episode in a row that we have to quit halfway through.

Laura: Oh, no, no.

Laura: Right, episode 53.

Ron: Distance is how far an object has moved.

Ron: This is scalar.

Ron: Okay.

Laura: Yes.

Ron: Displacement includes both the distance an object moves measured in a straight line from the start point to the finish point, and the direction of the line.

Ron: That's a vector.

Ron: Okay, sure.

Laura: What's the difference between them vector and scalar?

Ron: What's the difference between them?

Laura: A direction.

Ron: Yes, that is it.

Ron: Sorry.

Ron: So I'm at a festival.

Laura: Which one?

Ron: Let's say end of the road.

Laura: You're actually going to that?

Ron: I am.

Laura: Now we've come to the end of the road.

Ron: I want to walk from stage one, where I've been watching declining indie band Metronomy to go see cool Australian rocker Courtney Barnett on the way.

Laura: Courtney Barnett on the way.

Ron: I want to eat paella.

Ron: From the paella stand, Daniel Ron.

Laura: Off figures.

Ron: To get from stage one to the paella stand, I need to walk 200 metres east.

Laura: Okay.

Ron: Then from there, I need to walk 250 metres north to stage two.

Ron: What's the distance I've travelled and what's the displacement.

Laura: You'Ve walked 450 metres.

Ron: Is that the distance or the displacement?

Laura: The distance.

Ron: Okay.

Ron: And what's the displacement?

Laura: Also 450 metres.

Ron: Why would it be that?

Ron: Why on earth would it be that?

Ron: Why would there even be two questions if it was that?

Laura: Because those are the only numbers I have, Ron.

Ron: But what is displacement?

Ron: How is it measured?

Laura: How far away you've gone from the.

Ron: Place that you started?

Ron: Yeah.

Ron: So am I 450 metres from where I started?

Laura: I have to assume so.

Ron: Why?

Laura: Because he walked 450 metres away.

Ron: Are you thick?

Laura: Was the second stage also east of the Pyella?

Ron: No, it was north of the north.

Laura: That is some information that would have been helpful.

Ron: That was information you were given.

Laura: So I walked?

Laura: No, it was you, wasn't it?

Laura: Wait, northeast.

Laura: Southwest.

Ron: I think you might be sick.

Laura: Oh, I see.

Laura: So you've walked a right angle.

Laura: Oh, some pythagorean theory.

Laura: I'm not sick.

Laura: I just wasn't concentrating because it's s*** and dull.

Laura: I was drawing the festival.

Laura: Yeah, so, no, you've done.

Laura: The hypotenuse is the displacement.

Ron: Yes.

Ron: And how much is that?

Laura: A squared plus C squared equals B squared.

Laura: A squared plus B squared.

Laura: So 200 squared plus 250 squared equals X squared.

Laura: Square root of X equals what we want.

Ron: Yeah, go on.

Ron: Well, no, you don't want the square root of X, do you?

Laura: Just want X.

Laura: Oh, just X?

Laura: Just X.

Ron: You want the square root of X squared.

Laura: F****** bollocks, isn't it?

Laura: Calculator.

Laura: 200 squared is 40,000.

Laura: That's a lot, isn't it?

Laura: If dad was here now, he'd be like, you must know, 250 squared based on just having done 200 squared.

Laura: So 102,500.

Laura: And I want you to know the bloody answer here.

Laura: I don't want you to say Sounds about right.

Laura: If you say sounds about right, I will force feed you a hottie chalky.

Ron: Okay.

Laura: Do you know the answer to actual digits?

Laura: No, work it out right now.

Laura: I won't be accepting sounds about right.

Laura: So that's X squared.

Laura: Square root of X squared.

Laura: Wait, that doesn't look right.

Laura: That's a very high number.

Ron: Okay, I got it.

Laura: How did you do the square root?

Laura: Surely it's that button.

Laura: 102,500.

Laura: Surely that's the square root.

Laura: That seems bigger.

Laura: That's a bigger number.

Ron: No, you've got your settings weird.

Laura: 320.

Ron: Yeah.

Laura: Yes.

Laura: Metres.

Ron: What else do you need when it's a displacement?

Laura: Direction.

Ron: What direction has that gone in?

Laura: Northeast.

Ron: What on Laura?

Laura: Say it nicer.

Ron: I did what?

Ron: On Laura.

Laura: No, you said it very sarcastically.

Ron: Does that illustrate the difference between distance and displacement to you?

Laura: Displacement is a whole new word, buddy.

Ron: But okay, the difference between vector and scalar, the vector quantity is 320.

Ron: Northeast.

Laura: Yeah.

Laura: That's much better than all that bullshit about driving that you were on about.

Ron: Okay, yeah, I put time into this.

Ron: You didn't put time into it before.

Laura: It was a good episode, though.

Ron: Yeah, okay.

Ron: Right.

Ron: It takes me three minutes to walk to the Pyella.

Laura: Can you just tell me things instead of me having to do it?

Laura: No.

Laura: Wrong.

Ron: It takes five minutes to get the Pyella, and then it takes three minutes to walk to the next stage.

Laura: You've missed the metronomes.

Ron: What's the speed for the first and second leg?

Laura: What was the second leg?

Laura: I didn't listen.

Ron: Also, three minutes.

Laura: Three minutes?

Ron: I've just finished watching declining indie band Metronomy.

Laura: Oh, you're going to Courtney Barnett.

Ron: Courtney Barnett.

Ron: What is my speed for the first and second legs of the journey and what is my overall velocity?

Laura: Yeah.

Ron: In metres per second.

Laura: Oh, I don't want to do that.

Laura: It's just over one metre per second for the first one and a bit more over one metre per second for the second one.

Laura: Don't just wave your arm.

Laura: Arm dead air.

Ron: Go on, then.

Laura: Ron I don't want to.

Ron: Why?

Laura: Because I'm not confident.

Laura: I'll know.

Laura: So I don't want to do it.

Laura: Ron okay.

Ron: All right, we'll just move on.

Ron: No, then do it.

Ron: Well, you have to how many seconds are in a minute?

Laura: Laura 180.

Laura: 60.

Laura: But there's 180 in three minutes.

Ron: Okay, so how many metres per second do I why don't you just do.

Laura: Wait.

Laura: Not .9.

Laura: Doesn't seem right.

Ron: Why?

Laura: Because that's just under one.

Laura: Yeah, I need to do that some the other way around.

Laura: No.

Laura: 200 divided by 180.

Laura: Yeah, that's better.

Laura: 1.1 there, and then 250 divided by 180.

Laura: That's 1.4.

Ron: Very nice.

Laura: And then eleven minutes.

Laura: Eleven times 60 is 600 and 6450.

Ron: Divided by but velocity is a vector, so velocity is about getting from point A to point B.

Ron: So how far have we travelled overall?

Laura: I don't know.

Laura: I do know I didn't write it down, though.

Ron: You did.

Laura: I did.

Laura: I wrote it down.

Laura: There 320 metres.

Ron: Yeah.

Laura: What are we working out now?

Ron: The overall velocity.

Ron: How quickly?

Laura: Not helpful to anyone.

Ron: No, it's supposed to be illustrative to you.

Laura: It's just this pointless thing to know, though, because it didn't happen.

Laura: Do you know what I mean?

Ron: You're not doing a GCSE.

Ron: All of this is pointless.

Laura: Yeah.

Laura: I'm advocating on behalf of all of us when we were teens and all scientists, that I presumably have to sit at a desk now and deal with this.

Ron: It isn't pointless.

Laura: It is pointless.

Ron: Everything in your life comes from stuff like this.

Laura: Not this.

Ron: You know how to drive?

Ron: Yeah.

Ron: Vectors and scalars is a fundamental core principle of mechanics.

Laura: Probably not, though.

Ron: How would you know?

Laura: Because we've done this before.

Laura: But it can't be important to know how fast you weren't travelling on a route you didn't take.

Ron: No, this is a fundamental principle.

Ron: I'm just trying to illustrate the difference between these things.

Laura: I understand it.

Ron: Do you?

Ron: Then calculate it.

Laura: What am I calculating?

Ron: The overall velocity.

Ron: It's the same sum with the time that you already calculated.

Ron: 660 over 320 metres.

Laura: So would it be the distance divided by the time or the time divided.

Ron: By the same time?

Laura: What was I doing before it was the smaller one?

Laura: The time, I think.

Laura: 660 divided by 322.

Ron: Would it take if I was walking at two metres per second for 660?

Laura: I'll do this on the other way.

Laura: I'll try it the other way.

Laura: 660 divided by 320.

Laura: I've got two again.

Laura: 320 divided by 660.

Laura: Not .5.

Ron: Yeah.

Laura: Not by what metres per second?

Laura: I walked very slowly, I suppose, because I went on a detour.

Ron: And you stopped to get some Paella?

Laura: Yes, I did.

Laura: The paella weight.

Laura: God, I'm really hungry.

Laura: The hottie chalkies made me even hungrier than I was before.

Laura: Do you mind if I eat a peach?

Laura: Yeah, I do have a little peach break.

Ron: Speed does not involve direction.

Ron: Speed as a scalar quantity, speed of a moving object is rarely constant.

Laura: I'm just looking at the baby monitor.

Ron: When people walk or run, their speed is constantly changing.

Ron: The speed at which a person can walk, run or cycle depends on many factors.

Laura: Traffic lights, the length of their legs.

Ron: Age, terrain, fitness and the distance travel.

Laura: Distance travel?

Laura: Scalar.

Ron: Okay.

Ron: Typical values may be taken as walking is about 1.5 metres per second.

Ron: Running is about three metres per second.

Laura: Shall I write this down?

Ron: And cycling shall I write these down?

Laura: Shall I write these down?

Ron: Students should be able to recall typical values of a speed for a person walking.

Laura: Why didn't you just say yes when I was asking then, as well as the Why are you doing this?

Ron: Bit of speed.

Laura: Excuse me?

Ron: Different types of transportation.

Laura: Because you've only made your own bed to lie in now.

Laura: Because now you have to read that wall again.

Laura: Because instead of answering and me just writing it down, you didn't.

Ron: How right?

Laura: Walking was 1.5 metres per second, running was three.

Laura: Cycling, twice that.

Laura: Whoa.

Laura: Anymore.

Ron: It's not only moving objects that have varying speed.

Ron: The speed of sound and the speed of the wind also vary.

Laura: Speed of the wind?

Laura: The speed of the wind.

Laura: The speed of the wind.

Laura: I once read a book with the name of the wind was very good.

Ron: The speed of the wind stop playing with that.

Laura: It's my dail.

Laura: Pen.

Ron: You're allowed to fiddle with stuff that's very loud.

Laura: You are very loud.

Ron: A typical value for the speed of.

Laura: Sound in air, 300 metres per second.

Ron: 330.

Ron: Yeah.

Laura: Aeroplanes sonic The Hedgehog Boom.

Ron: Why are you doing MP s per second?

Ron: But that's what the slash means.

Ron: You're doing metres per second.

Ron: Should it just be M slash S or just MPs?

Laura: Nah, I like both.

Ron: Okay.

Ron: Distance travelled equals speed times time.

Laura: Times distance travelled.

Ron: I think I was supposed to get you to do those cool sums after we read through all of this.

Laura: Equals speed what, times time?

Ron: Yeah.

Ron: Does that make sense to you?

Laura: Which direction, though?

Ron: Speed is a scalar quantity, isn't it?

Ron: So that doesn't matter.

Laura: But distance travelled isn't.

Ron: Yes, it is.

Ron: Distance is a scalar displacement.

Laura: No vector displacement, surely.

Laura: Distance like this.

Laura: So that circle, that could be a distance.

Ron: Yeah.

Laura: Interesting.

Ron: Anything can be a distance.

Ron: Not everything can be a displacement from a distance.

Ron: From a displacement.

Ron: She probably should.

Laura: Yeah.

Laura: I think we're just using distance wrong, then.

Laura: In common parlance, yes.

Ron: Maybe in common parlance we are, madam.

Laura: I think we should be saying displacement.

Ron: But a displacement is also a distance.

Laura: Don't muddy the water.

Laura: They were already 90% mud.

Laura: One more bit of mud in these muddy waters and it's not water anymore.

Laura: It's just some wet mud.

Ron: Because, like with our festival example, if we hadn't gone for the Pyella, we'd just gone from declining indie band Metronomy to Australian rocker Courtney Barnett.

Ron: If we'd walked straight from there to there, the distance and the displacement would have been the same.

Laura: They were the same.

Laura: Because we ended up in the same place.

Ron: No, because do you remember that we walked here?

Laura: I do remember when we got to Courtney Barnett.

Laura: Surely that didn't matter.

Ron: It doesn't in terms of the displacement, but it does in terms of the distance that we've walked.

Laura: How you feel about where you went?

Laura: Where were you?

Laura: Over there.

Laura: You don't point the way you came?

Ron: No, because I stopped getting if you went for a jog and wouldn't let's.

Laura: Say that you went how dare you.

Ron: Slander me and ran three K.

Ron: I didn't.

Ron: But let's say that you did.

Laura: Why can we say cycled?

Laura: I might do that.

Ron: Okay, cycle.

Ron: Let's say you went out and you cycled 50K.

Laura: Yeah.

Ron: Okay.

Ron: You started and you finished at your house.

Ron: How would you feel if I completely dismissed the fact that you cycled all of that distance because you started and finished in the same place?

Laura: Do you probably would.

Ron: No, I wouldn't, because I understand these easy to understand concepts.

Laura: I understand it.

Laura: You f****** wretch.

Laura: You don't.

Ron: It doesn't change how you feel about where you don't because feelings don't f****** come into it.

Laura: Right.

Laura: When is this helpful?

Ron: What do you mean?

Laura: Tell me how this made my car.

Laura: Knowing about corners yeah.

Laura: How did this make my car?

Ron: It's a fundamental core why?

Ron: Of mechanics.

Laura: Why?

Ron: I'm not a mechanic.

Laura: Yeah, you're just parroting stuff and it's nonsense.

Laura: It's nonsense.

Laura: You could drive anywhere without caring about going around the corner or going straight across the field.

Laura: It doesn't matter.

Ron: You don't think that the speed something's travelling versus where it's trying to go matters?

Ron: When you're driving a car.

Laura: You'Re boiling it down to the wrong argument.

Laura: I don't think knowing whether I went three metres that way a bit north and then some east matters when I get to the National Trust place that day.

Ron: No, but I'm not saying that those kind of measurements built a car.

Laura: Why are you saying that?

Ron: I'm saying that this is really simple.

Laura: Yeah, and I understand it for the record.

Ron: I've had to use Pyella to get you invested.

Laura: I love Pyella and I understand it for the record.

Laura: But now you want me to love it.

Ron: No, just put that in a box on the shelf for a bit.

Ron: Build on that.

Laura: Build on what?

Laura: It's nothing.

Ron: Yes, but, Laura, we've gone through this.

Laura: Three times and I've understood it.

Laura: Move on, then.

Ron: It's been like p*** off a duck's back time and time again.

Laura: If you don't shut your mouth, do the next bit, then build on this f****** sand castle of oblivion.

Ron: Velocity.

Ron: Velocity of an object is its speed in a given direction.

Laura: Okay, okay.

Ron: Students no, should be able finished.

Ron: Sorry, I thought you already knew all of this, so I thought I could.

Laura: I know the stuff we've already done.

Laura: Actually, can't he face sorry, I thought you can't that was a bit strong actually.

Ron: Students should be able to explain the vector scalar distinction as it applies to displacement, distance, velocity and speed.

Laura: Yeah, got it.

Laura: Vector is the one you didn't do but is the most direct pie in the sky route.

Laura: Scalar is the route you actually did, but it doesn't have a direction.

Ron: What's my velocity north?

Ron: In the pyella example, what's my velocity north over the whole journey?

Laura: Half.

Ron: What?

Laura: Half east, half north.

Ron: Go on then.

Ron: You understand it.

Laura: No, I was explaining why are you being so salty?

Laura: You asked me to explain the thing and I tried my best and now you're being rude.

Ron: What's the velocity north?

Laura: A bit north.

Laura: It's northeast.

Laura: So half north.

Laura: Half east.

Ron: But that's a direction.

Ron: What's the velocity north?

Laura: I don't know.

Ron: How far north have you travelled?

Laura: I don't know.

Laura: 250 metres?

Ron: Yep.

Ron: And how long did it take?

Laura: Eleven minutes.

Ron: Yep.

Ron: So what's the velocity north?

Laura: Eleven north.

Laura: Divide one of them.

Laura: I don't know how to calculate velocity.

Ron: Velocity of an object is its speed in a given direction.

Laura: Eleven minutes north.

Laura: Velocity?

Laura: Eleven north per minute.

Laura: What do you want?

Ron: What is the speed?

Ron: How would you do speed with the units?

Laura: Metres per second?

Ron: Yeah.

Laura: Eleven metres per second.

Ron: Velocity is an object speed in a given direction.

Laura: Eleven metres per second.

Ron: No, you've taken eleven from the minutes.

Ron: How far have you travelled north?

Laura: 250 metres.

Ron: And how long did it take?

Laura: Eleven minutes.

Ron: So what's the velocity north then?

Laura: North.

Ron: We've just done so many of these.

Laura: Yes, you do.

Ron: It's not about picking the right number.

Ron: Bad brain.

Laura: I get overwhelmed in these sessions.

Laura: Zero four metres per second.

Ron: What sum did you do?

Laura: 250 divided by 660.

Ron: Yeah, that sounds about right.

Laura: I told you, no more of those.

Ron: Okay.

Ron: What is your velocity in this pyella example?

Ron: I think it's southwest.

Laura: Stupid that we're factoring the pyella time into us moving about.

Laura: It's insanity.

Ron: Shut up and do it.

Ron: What's your velocity southwest?

Laura: Zero minus minus Ronus .4.

Ron: No, because it wasn't 0.4 originally, was it?

Laura: Oh well, I don't know about southwest.

Ron: I think you get it though.

Laura: Yeah, I know I get it.

Ron: I told you I didn't get it before.

Ron: Because you said because you thought that it took eleven minutes to get there.

Ron: So you thought that meant it took eleven norths.

Laura: I was flustered.

Ron: Yes.

Ron: We're now going to move on to.

Laura: I'm going to feel so smart at latitude this year, telling everyone about my vector tude around the Paella stand.

Ron: I want to eat pyella now.

Laura: I love PYLL.

Laura: 6.5 and a good veggie pyella there 6.5.4 doodle 6.5.4 .1.4.

Ron: Distance time relationship.

Laura: They all went marching off to get Pyella and bands.

Ron: The distance time relationship kiskies.

Ron: If an object moves along a straight line, the distance travelled can be represented by a distance time graph.

Laura: Cool.

Ron: You're going to need to draw some graphs.

Laura: Graphs can suck my sweet ball.

Laura: Haven't done a lesson so long, my pens have dried out.

Ron: So distance is going to be on the Y axis.

Ron: Time is going to be on the X axis.

Laura: Got it.

Ron: Now, if something's moving at a constant speed, what type of line would that draw on the graph?

Laura: Just diagonal up.

Ron: What type of line?

Laura: Straight.

Ron: Yeah.

Laura: That's actually not a fair because diagonal line is a type of line.

Ron: Yeah, I just wanted you to say that it was straight.

Ron: I'm sorry, that that wasn't affair.

Ron: If an object is accelerating, what type of line would that be?

Laura: Also straight.

Laura: Is it accelerating in a constant acceleration.

Ron: But if it's accelerating, then it's going to be travelling more distance in the same amount of time, isn't it?

Ron: Yeah.

Ron: So would that produce a straight line?

Laura: Yeah.

Ron: Now, would I still be pulling this thread if you'd nailed it first time, or would I have just said, yeah.

Laura: Let me think about lines for a second.

Ron: Let's draw a distance time.

Laura: It would do like that.

Ron: Would it go back in time?

Laura: No, but that's just because I'm bad at drawing.

Laura: No, I know.

Laura: Now it would just change angles partway through.

Ron: Yeah, it would be a curve.

Ron: Yeah.

Ron: Getting more and more steep.

Ron: Yeah.

Ron: Let's do a distance time of the pyella journey.

Laura: No.

Laura: I f****** ate this pyella journey.

Laura: I don't want to talk about it anymore.

Ron: But we're going to.

Laura: Can we do a different journey?

Ron: Okay.

Ron: We've just seen Australian rocker Courtney Barnett at stage two.

Ron: We're going to get some more Pyella on the way back and we're going to go see John Kale from The Velvet Underground.

Laura: That feels like we should get Kale, then.

Ron: Okay.

Ron: The Kale stands next to the pile.

Laura: Two metres to one side.

Ron: If those are the sums that you want to do.

Ron: Sure.

Laura: I don't like the sum ones.

Ron: No.

Ron: We don't like physics.

Laura: No.

Ron: We don't enjoy a third of this podcast.

Ron: We don't enjoy a lot of the other third side.

Laura: But we just love being together.

Ron: Yeah.

Ron: Can you just draw the distance time graph for the pilot journey, please?

Laura: Four minutes, five minutes, six minutes, seven minutes, eight minutes, nine minutes, ten minutes, eleven minutes.

Ron: Old.

Ron: Why don't you do in 50s?

Laura: Because I don't know if we're going up to 320 metres or 450.

Ron: There's distance, not displacement, Ron.

Laura: He smart cookie.

Laura: 5200, 250.

Ron: Is that the whole distance?

Laura: Yeah.

Ron: No, you just said 450.

Laura: Oh, my God, Ron.

Laura: I have so much.

Laura: I'm a mother now.

Laura: I'm busy.

Laura: I don't think about numbers anymore.

Laura: Just think about the many colours.

Laura: Butterfly.

Ron: Every f****** day you've gone straight from 400 there to 500.

Laura: Oh, yeah.

Laura: 400.

Laura: Okay.

Ron: Nice.

Ron: Right, so it takes three minutes to the first two.

Ron: I'm helping.

Laura: Do yourself interrupt my thinking flow.

Ron: I'm going to go over there.

Laura: It's the definition of a thought level.

Laura: So I've got to be there.

Laura: Then I basically stay there.

Laura: And then by then, I'm there.

Laura: Done it.

Laura: Ron is sulking in a corner of the living room like a little ickle angry baby.

Laura: Now he's rubbing my head, stroking, pretending to be affectionate, but actually taking out some aggression on my hair.

Ron: Let me see this graph.

Laura: There it is.

Ron: That looks bloody brilliant.

Laura: It's beautiful, isn't it?

Laura: I plotted the points first and then I joined them up so that it would be extra tidy.

Ron: Really?

Ron: Well done, Laura.

Ron: That's really good work that you've done there.

Laura: Thank you, Ron.

Ron: Okay, we're going to cover off acceleration and then we're going to stop.

Laura: I love accelerating.

Ron: The formula for accelerating.

Laura: He'S pausing in the middle of his sentence, which normally means he wants me to write things down.

Ron: Acceleration equals the change in velocity that.

Laura: Is delta v.

Laura: No, not delta.

Ron: Yes, delta v.

Ron: What's delta again?

Ron: An E.

Ron: It means no, it's a delta.

Laura: A triangle.

Laura: Thank you.

Laura: I knew it was something weird like an e's are pretty weird if you.

Ron: Delta v.

Ron: Delta velocity over t time taken.

Ron: So velocity, as we know, is measured in metres per second.

Ron: Time is measured in seconds.

Ron: So what is the unit of acceleration, Laura.

Laura: Per double seconds?

Laura: 2 seconds.

Ron: Metres per 2 seconds.

Ron: Try again.

Laura: Close the metres already per second.

Laura: And then we're dividing by more second.

Ron: Yeah.

Laura: Metres per half second.

Ron: No, metres.

Ron: Think Pythag.

Laura: Half a metre per second.

Ron: That's a speed.

Ron: The unit of acceleration is not metres per second squared.

Laura: Well, that would be timing.

Ron: It is.

Laura: I thought it's dividing.

Ron: It is.

Ron: One over the other one.

Laura: That's a divide.

Laura: Why is it times now?

Ron: Because one's already getting divided, isn't it?

Ron: Because one's already metres per second.

Laura: Yeah.

Laura: And then you've got to double divide it, not times it.

Laura: I don't understand that's.

Ron: Okay, I don't want to explain.

Ron: An object that slows down metres per second squared.

Laura: Metres per second square.

Laura: An object that's that's acceleration is measured in metres per second.

Ron: An object that's wait.

Ron: Is deceleration.

Ron: Wait.

Ron: I don't think I need to wait for that.

Ron: An object that slows down is decelerating.

Ron: Yeah, I'm just reading from the syllabus.

Ron: Yeah, I honestly, I stopped prepping this lesson.

Laura: Why?

Ron: After the second pile calculation?

Ron: Because I thought that's all we'd get through.

Laura: Well, I've shone then, quite frankly, haven't I?

Ron: Now, going back to our distance time graph.

Ron: Where is the velocity on that graph represented.

Laura: In the diagonal bits of the line?

Ron: What attribute of the diagonal bits?

Laura: The across her time?

Laura: Yeah.

Laura: No.

Laura: What?

Ron: What attribute of the line?

Laura: The fact that goes up.

Ron: What attribute?

Laura: Height.

Ron: Distance.

Laura: Yeah.

Ron: No, because that's distance.

Laura: What are you talking about?

Ron: What attribute of the line do you mean?

Laura: Attribute of a line?

Ron: How many different attributes do lines have?

Laura: F****** loads.

Laura: It's red, it's wobbly, it's two dimensional up, it's across.

Laura: Straight.

Ron: Straight has a length.

Laura: Yeah.

Laura: And it has a width wave point.

Laura: Prince.

Ron: A gradient.

Laura: Great.

Laura: I wasn't ever going to say gradient, was I?

Ron: Why not?

Laura: Who's thinking about the word gradient on a Sunday?

Ron: Gradient.

Ron: In it, the gradient of the line tells you the velocity, right?

Ron: Because that's basically how much distance per second, isn't it?

Ron: Because if it goes up by one and across by one, you get a diagonal like that.

Ron: If it went up by two, be steeper.

Ron: Line faster.

Ron: She gets it.

Laura: You start talking really quiet.

Ron: Sorry.

Ron: Stop there.

Laura: You'd rather stop than just talk louder?

Laura: Yeah, all right.

Laura: Oh, my God.

Laura: I just don't think physics is science.

Laura: It's so math.

Ron: So boring.

Ron: Sorry.

Laura: Goodbye for three weeks.

Laura: Physics.

Laura: Have the quiz.

Ron: See if the quiz.

Laura: It'S quiz and time.

Ron: Quiz and time.

Ron: Do you remember what we studied?

Laura: Work done.

Ron: No, that was a while back.

Ron: What if I said paella to you?

Laura: Oh, no.

Laura: Festivals.

Laura: I remember.

Laura: I have to go to festivals this year.

Ron: Which ones?

Laura: Just latitude.

Ron: I think I'm going to end of the road.

Laura: I like, end of the road.

Laura: Yeah, that's nice.

Laura: Festival.

Laura: My eye is really squelched.

Laura: Hay fever is kicking my b***.

Ron: So, quizzing time.

Laura: Yeah.

Laura: Is it going to?

Ron: Can I quiz time?

Ron: Somewhere in the city.

Laura: Can we do a whole quiz where I don't have to do a sum?

Ron: It's mostly sums.

Laura: No, because hey, how about instead of sums, let's just have a nice chat with each other?

Ron: What about sumsums?

Laura: How about no sums?

Laura: But what goes in a paella if you make it Ron?

Ron: Sums.

Ron: No, we could just do a different podcast.

Laura: Can you just ever look, you're such a b****, because you're always like it's not me, it's the syllabus.

Laura: Listen, me trying to get out of doing the syllabus, we could get our job on.

Ron: We could get Agony dad to write some p***.

Ron: We could read that out.

Laura: No, because his p*** would just be so no sex happening.

Laura: I think he's not a sensual man.

Laura: I'm so comfortable.

Ron: Laura, question one, because I haven't got my notepad.

Ron: Why don't we both get high paying jobs as writers?

Laura: You were just going to say hi then.

Ron: And then start a podcast.

Laura: I'd love to.

Laura: That's the dream.

Laura: H***, I'd love to just become a man and start a podcast.

Laura: I think it would be going much better, my brother.

Laura: Yeah.

Laura: And then we'd only need a me and we'd have two my brothers.

Ron: And just podcasts would be doing better because it'd be two men.

Ron: Your career would be better.

Ron: So we started from a better place.

Laura: I'd be a household f****** name.

Ron: Yeah.

Ron: Fans wouldn't be as nice.

Laura: No, we have got nice fans.

Ron: Yeah.

Ron: Anywho question?

Ron: One.

Ron: Laura, what is the difference between distance and displacement?

Laura: Okay, so in actual terms, nothing.

Laura: But scientists would like you to believe that there is, like, usefulness in knowing, like, how far away the crow flies from what you're doing.

Laura: And it's not free.

Ron: How far we cry.

Laura: Oh, my God.

Laura: The words is meant to be the bit I can't do.

Laura: How far we acquire.

Ron: So don't tell us about the imaginary scientist thing.

Ron: What's the difference between distance and displacement?

Laura: I was telling you that and then I stumbled a bit.

Laura: So displacement is like how far away you are from what you were doing before?

Laura: Distance is whatever the route you took, how far travel was.

Laura: Yeah.

Ron: That's why I don't get why you hate this concept so vehemently.

Laura: I think it's so useless.

Ron: Why?

Laura: It's just intellectualism for the sake of it.

Ron: What's the difference between speed and velocity?

Laura: No idea.

Ron: You want to try?

Laura: Speed is fastness.

Laura: Velocity.

Laura: How heavy you are when you're moving terminal.

Ron: All right, next question.

Laura: No.

Laura: What was velocity then?

Ron: Velocity has direction.

Ron: It's a vector.

Ron: Speed and a direction I choose, not Laura.

Ron: I travel 500 metres east.

Laura: Vector velocity.

Laura: Is that why they're both north?

Laura: Ron.

Laura: Ron?

Laura: Do you think that they both begin with ve for a reason?

Laura: Vector and velocity.

Laura: What's?

Laura: Ve in Latin or whatever?

Laura: Ron.

Laura: Ron.

Ron: What you were saying was boring.

Laura: What you're saying is always boring.

Ron: I travel 500 metres east in six minutes.

Laura: You're a proclaimer.

Laura: Next question, then.

Ron: 300 metres north in three minutes.

Laura: They were miles, not metres, weren't they?

Laura: What the overall distance?

Laura: Metres in a vector capacity for lots of teeth.

Laura: Just to be the man who but what's my displacement?

Laura: Just because I walked 500 metres doesn't mean 400 metres away.

Ron: So much less patience when we're in the same room.

Ron: And we've spent a lot of time together recently.

Laura: We have spent a lot of time together recently.

Laura: It's been so nice, hasn't it?

Ron: What's the overall distance?

Ron: I travelled.

Laura: I've got no idea what you just said.

Laura: It's too hot.

Laura: It care at all.

Laura: Hey, imagine we were in school.

Laura: They've been making us do this in a shirt and tie in this bloody weather.

Ron: What's the overall speed, Ron?

Laura: I don't know, because I didn't listen to any of the numbers.

Ron: We have to do another record after this before your kid wakes up and starts f****** banging on about this s**** that she wants to talk about.

Ron: That kid has nothing to say and I'm already up here.

Laura: Maybe she'll show us her toes again.

Laura: That one's new this week.

Ron: She'll just go she has been doing that a lot.

Laura: I that is life now, actually.

Laura: Pretty good summation.

Laura: Right, I'm getting the paper out.

Laura: God, this book has got raggedy.

Laura: Right, here we are, then.

Laura: What are you jamming on about?

Ron: 500 metres east?

Ron: Six.

Laura: Hang on.

Ron: F****** h***.

Ron: Three bits of information.

Ron: How can you not maintain that because.

Laura: I was writing it, so I wasn't thinking about listening.

Ron: Why had you started writing before I had finished speaking?

Laura: To get down the first bit.

Ron: All right.

Ron: 300 metres.

Laura: Thank you.

Ron: North.

Laura: North.

Ron: Three minutes.

Laura: Yes.

Ron: This is bullshit.

Ron: You're really 200 metres.

Laura: I think you need to do less day job because it's making you west real cranky.

Laura: Why the f*** are we doing this journey 200 metres?

Ron: Oh, because we get a Pyella and then f****** gelato milk eggs, b****.

Ron: What's the overall distance?

Laura: I travelled thousand metres.

Ron: What's the overall speed in metres per second?

Laura: Dan?

Laura: I didn't get any metres on time on the last one.

Ron: Two minutes.

Laura: Thank you, Dana.

Laura: It's too difficult to do because that's eleven.

Ron: Okay.

Ron: No marks for that.

Ron: What's the overall displacement?

Laura: I don't know.

Ron: Okay.

Ron: What's the overall velocity?

Laura: I don't know.

Ron: Okay.

Ron: Please draw a distance.

Laura: No.

Ron: Graph of the journey.

Ron: Thanks.

Laura: Sorry.

Laura: I accidentally learnt on the space bar.

Ron: Where's it when?

Laura: I don't know.

Laura: Hang on, let me listen.

Ron: F****** h***.

Laura: So just on the thanks bit, then.

Ron: All right.

Ron: Thanks, then.

Laura: All right.

Ron: Thanks, everyone.

Ron: We'll see you next week for biology, then do it.

Laura: I can't do it.

Ron: There's two options.

Ron: We either do the podcast and we.

Laura: Stop threatening the validation of the podcast.

Ron: No, this episode, because the quiz is done now.

Ron: So answer the questions or I don't know the answer.

Ron: Then we stop.

Laura: Thanks, Me.

Ron: No.

Laura: Yes.

Ron: That's what the first 40 minutes was.

Laura: That was weeks ago.

Ron: You don't need no, it was like three days ago.

Laura: Ron, help me.

Ron: Just need to do it.

Laura: I don't know how to do it.

Ron: You literally just said, I can't.

Ron: That's too difficult.

Ron: Because that's eleven.

Laura: Yeah, because 1000 into eleven get a calculator.

Laura: I just don't which way round does the sum go?

Ron: Absolutely.

Laura: No, that's fine.

Ron: Then we stop.

Laura: No, we stop.

Ron: That is fine.

Laura: There's no one listeners have come for.

Ron: But do it then.

Laura: I'm trying.

Ron: You're not.

Ron: You've been perplexed by the eleven.

Laura: What's a stupid number to give me.

Ron: But we're doing it in seconds anyway, so it's not really eleven, is it?

Laura: It's either 91 or not point 00:11.

Ron: Well, do you think that we're walking 91 metres per second?

Laura: Not point 00:11, then?

Ron: I don't think that's right either.

Laura: Well, those are the two options.

Ron: Why?

Laura: Because 1000 divided by eleven or eleven divided by 1002nd.

Laura: Oh, for f***'s sake.

Laura: I've lost the calculator.

Ron: Now do you understand what metres per second means?

Laura: F*** you.

Laura: I hate you.

Ron: But do you?

Laura: Yes.

Ron: Okay.

Laura: Now cool.

Ron: Are you sure?

Laura: No.

Laura: Half a metre per second?

Laura: No.

Laura: That feels slow, actually.

Laura: For God's sake.

Ron: So we've walked a thousand metres and 660 seconds.

Ron: Are we walking half a metre per second?

Ron: If we're walking fewer more metres than we are seconds.

Laura: What?

Ron: We've walked a thousand metres.

Ron: That's one and three zeros after it in 660 seconds.

Ron: So that's more metres than it is seconds, isn't it?

Ron: 1000 is bigger than 661.5.

Ron: Yeah, about that.

Ron: Probably.

Ron: It's probably a bit less than that.

Ron: Have you actually done the sum or have you just not bothered?

Laura: Well, you haven't bothered, so why should I?

Ron: Because you're the one doing the quiz.

Laura: You're the one setting the quiz.

Ron: Yeah, all right.

Ron: What?

Ron: Anne, we got that one.

Ron: What's the overall displacement?

Laura: I don't know.

Ron: Work it out.

Laura: Okay.

Ron: Then we stop and we start the next episode.

Laura: Because I haven't learned anything.

Ron: Same would be true even if we did it.

Ron: Those are the two options.

Ron: Do it or don't.

Laura: I'm obviously not feeling well.

Laura: Can you just be nice to me?

Ron: I am.

Ron: Let's stop.

Laura: Nice?

Laura: That's ruining my podcast.

Ron: Come on, pal, let's stop.

Ron: You and me stopping together.

Ron: Best birds or do it.

Laura: I don't know how to do it.

Ron: Have you thought or tried?

Laura: No.

Ron: Then there we go.

Laura: Maybe this is just too hard.

Ron: What do you need to work out first?

Laura: Triangles.

Laura: I don't want to.

Laura: Quizzes over by.

Ron: Quizzes over by.

Laura: Okay, we're on serious chat.

Laura: I think we need to have some sort of policy on quiz behaviour from both of us.

Laura: You have to know the answers and I have to try, otherwise about 25% of this podcast falls apart.

Ron: I don't think I need to know the answers.

Ron: You do.

Laura: It undermines my ambitions when you don't.

Ron: No, because you're getting it all switched backwards if you think it's not about the answer when it comes to the math, it's about whether you did the right thing.

Laura: No.

Laura: Don't even listen to what I'm doing.

Ron: That's not true.

Laura: You left the room in the last one.

Ron: We listened to it.

Laura: No.

Laura: Anyway, spoilers.

Laura: Listen, if you promise to is know the answers, I promise to try harder.

Ron: Sure, but you don't need to know the answers if you know how to work the answers out.

Laura: But how do I know if I know how to work the answers out if I don't know if I've got the answer?

Ron: Because I've listened and I've confirmed.

Laura: You haven't listened or confirmed.

Ron: I do.

Laura: You don't.

Laura: Anyway, so there we go.

Laura: There's that.

Laura: Tom wants an official apology to child of the podcast.

Laura: No.

Ron: I didn't want to hear that.

Laura: You were mean.

Laura: Yeah, fair enough.

Laura: And, hey, I was thinking, inspired by the curious incident of the Cheestring in the night, what's the weirdest thing you've ever sleepwalked and done?

Laura: Or is it slept walked?

Laura: No, sleep sleepwalked, slept walked.

Ron: It wouldn't be slept walked, slept, walk.

Laura: No, sleep walked, sleepwalked sleepwalked.

Laura: Yeah, sounds weird.

Laura: Anyway, what's the weirdest thing you've ever sleepwalked and done?

Ron: I hated that I've never sleepwalked.

Laura: I'm asking the listeners, you rogue.

Ron: Well, you looked at me.

Laura: Yeah, because you're the only other person in the heart.

Ron: So which one is it?

Ron: Laura.

Laura: You to join in with more of a just a no, I've never sleepwalked.

Laura: Do you register this clown has no peace.

Laura: You haven't put them in the notes so I can't see them.

Ron: Copy them in.

Laura: I don't know where they are.

Ron: Ready?

Laura: Yeah.

Ron: And the first drum roll, the first big thank you goes to Andy, DC chief stylist in charge of dyeing the grey hair.

Ron: This podcast is giving Ron back to its normal dirt colour.

Laura: We also want to say a thank you to Alastair Mcwhit.

Laura: My hair has gone really blonde this summer.

Laura: Yeah.

Laura: Alastair MC.

Laura: Sorry, I got a halfway through your name and stopped.

Laura: Alastair.

Laura: Alastair McWilliams.

Laura: Alistair makes Paella so good that you'd walk directly towards it at 1.5 metres per second through tents and crowds and puddles as the crow flies.

Laura: B******.

Laura: None of this scalar s*** vectors, only direct line to the yum rice.

Ron: And finally, a huge thank you to the Blue Gnoo, the international yardstick of bum health foxes.

Laura: Listen up, Blue Gnoo got you beat.

Laura: Listen, there was a lot of festival chat this week.

Laura: I lied.

Laura: I said I would only be at Latitude.

Laura: It was a big lie.

Laura: I will also be at Leeds Reading and towersy festival.

Laura: And of course, Lexx education will be at the London Podcast Festival.

Laura: If you're listening to this and want to support two little indie kids just trying to make their dreams come true, please buy two tickets to the London Podcast Festival Show.

Laura: It is the 16 September at 02:00 P.m.

Ron: In London.

Laura: Yeah, we made the tickets as cheap as they would let us.

Laura: We really want you to be there.

Laura: We want a nice, fun, full room that will be our first ever live show.

Ron: They told us what prices we could have the tickets and they were like, this price is for old people.

Ron: And we said, no, it's for everyone.

Laura: Yeah, it's cheaper than one of your London pints, probably.

Ron: Neck oil.

Laura: Neck oil.

Laura: Sad train.

Laura: Listen, we have to get out of this hutch now and become a patron so that we can have air conditioning and coherent episodes.

Laura: That would be so nice, wouldn't it?

Laura: And guess what?

Laura: You're loved.

Ron: We hope you love us.

Laura: Yeah.

Laura: At some point, Ron's going to say, Cluster Smith in the episode that we hear.

Ron: Smith.

Laura: Hello and welcome to another episode of Lexx Education.

Laura: This is me talking.

Laura: Ron, this is not acceptable.

Ron: What's not acceptable?

Ron: This is me talking.

Laura: No.

Laura: Now do all your quiet talking.

Laura: This is the episode where you start talking really quietly and I take you to talk louder and then you just say in the books rather than just talk louder.

Ron: Are we recording?

Ron: Yeah, but just for testing the then, yeah.

Laura: Say something.

Ron: I have.

Ron: We've done.

Ron: We're testing.

Ron: Testing.
