   no... "explain [it] to me, please" is much different than "explain me,   
   please"...   
      
      
   the first means to    
      
     make "[it]" clear to someone by describing "[it]" in more detail   
      
      
   the second means to   
      
     make "me" clear to someone by describing "me" in more detail   
      
      
   when the second case is used, you are asking for _yourself_ to be explained...   
   why you are... why you exist... why you do what you do... how you came to be...
