'Smart Enough to Know Better' ran at least monthly from June 2010 to December 2025. It resulted in
230 episodes and 90 bonus episodes totalling over 327 hours of discussion mostly between Greg
Wah and Dan Beeston and is the result of well over 3000 hours of shared effort and/or messing
around. Its goal was to share a love of science in a friendly and approachable manner (and also
as a springboard for rude jokes).
It had between 1000 and 2000 regular listeners (and several irregular ones for whom the
gastrointestinal segments were of particular interest). This archive represents a long and
valuable process of being wrong and becoming less wrong with every successive episode.
There have been 548,554 downloads as of January in 2026 representing an average of 1714
downloads per episode. Greg and Dan would like to thank each person who took the time to give us
a chance. You were so engaged, complimentary and responsive. We couldn't have asked for a better
audience. Merely a bigger one. Who had more disposable income. And sent dirty pictures to Greg
like I repeatedly asked them to.
Thank you all.
Love,
Dan Beeston (real name) and Greg Wah (fake name)
