I love this podcast. I have been keeping honey bees for three years now, and I learn a lot whenever I tune in. I would recommend this podcast to any beekeeper. I don't have any problems with the audio, even the interviews in crowded conferences. Now that Kim has retired, perhaps we can have a new podcast every week? Thank you for the work.

Kim and Jeff do a wonderful job of finding and speaking with a wide spectrum of folks involved with bees and beekeeping. From scientists to commercial to backyard beekeepers to the folks making the equipment and tools beekeepers use. The down home 'beekeepers talking to beekeepers' format is very casual and relaxed. I also love the updates from previous guests from time to time.
As a matter of full disclosure, I was honored to be a guest on Beekeeping Today with The Pollinators documentary film. We had a great time talking bees and continue to stay in touch. As a longtime beekeeper myself, I continue to look forward to listening and learning from their show.

What a delight to hear the roundtable of different regional beekeepers! This may be my fave episode so far and I listen to every one. I particularly enjoyed hearing from fellow North Carolinian Mark Smith even tho our climates are so different (I’m at 3000’ in the NC mountains). His close observations of the impact of the unusual winter/spring we had were very insightful. Some time soon I hope you will check in with an Appalachian beekeeper (Jason Bragg of New River Bees in WV comes to mind) since it’s another unique region. Thank you both!

I have always been a fan of honeybees, which is why I started listening to this podcast. As a result of listening to this podcast, I have become a fan of bee keeping so much so that I am currently building my first bee hive and plan on joining the bee keeping crowd. If you want to learn more about honeybees and all pollinators this is a very informative and INTERESTING show!!

I enjoyed most of the earlier shows that talked about real world beekeepers and how to. The lengthy scientific rambles, although I’m sure are much needed, are just too painful. Please keep in mind who your listeners are and where they are coming from.
