Welcome to the Footnotes, B-sides, or mini-episode! We don’t know what to call these episodes, so suggestions are welcome. Whatever we decide, we will be doing these short 10-15 minute episodes to recap and clarify things we talked about in the main episode the week before. Also, we will share other cool stuff we are watching and reading.
This companion episode to Episode 14 revisits key topics and clarifies points about regeneration discussed earlier. Hosts Nick and Joe talk about their recent experience watching Deadpool and Wolverine and give a thumbs-up review of the film. They delve into plant and animal regeneration, touching on the role of bioelectricity and pluripotent cells, as well as discussing Groot’s regrowth and the concept of coppicing in trees. The episode also covers regeneration in planarian and human implications, while humorously recapping movie highlights and mentioning future episode topics like the multiverse and time travel. Join Nick and Joe as they explore science with a lively and informative twist. As always, feel free to comment, and we will address your questions and comments in future shows! Enjoy.
And you know, a RHR episode wouldn’t be complete without show notes: that’s right, like the main event, the mini episode, also has show notes. Curated with time stamps, you’ll find exposition and links to help you explore topics on your own. Have fun!
