Welcome to the very first episode of the Regret Labs podcast. Hosted by comedians Aric McKeown and Levi Weinhagen, Regret Labs is about making up for past mistakes while being open to making new ones for the purpose of learning. Aric and Levi, with little to no expertise in the scientific topics they are exploring, brave the shallows of knowledge by asking the embarrassingly simple questions that they should have learned a long time ago.

This episode, Aric and Levi are joined by Maggie Ryan Sandford to discuss science at its most fundamental level. Before they can explore more difficult topics like physics and biology, the basics of what science is and is not need to be established. Tides, dolphins, and how not to be a foley artist are also explored.
