Sometimes the most memorable beekeeping stories have very little to do with honey production. This week, Jeff Ott and Becky Masterman welcome Nehemiah Ray, a Georgia beekeeper whose family's everyday life inspired the Sundance Award-winning documentary The Boys and the Bees. What began as a pest control assignment to remove honey bees from a home unexpectedly launched Nehemiah into beekeeping, live honey bee removals, and eventually a life centered around teaching others about nature, family, and stewardship. Nehemiah recounts learning beekeeping almost entirely through books, YouTube, and experience before joining the Metro Atlanta Beekeepers Association. He discusses the challenges of managing honey bee removals, maintaining survivor stock with an emphasis on naturally selected Varroa-resistant genetics, coping with Georgia's difficult weather extremes, and balancing beekeeping with family life and business ownership. The conversation then turns to The Boys and the Bees, the award-winning documentary that follows Nehemiah, his wife Eliza, and their two sons. Rather than simply documenting beekeeping, the film beautifully captures the relationship between a father and his children, the lessons learned from honey bees, and the importance of curiosity, courage, and spending meaningful time together outdoors. Jeff and Becky reflect on one particularly moving scene in which Nehemiah carefully guides his son through receiving his first honey bee sting—a moment that has resonated deeply with audiences and fathers around the world. Whether you're a beekeeper, parent, educator, or simply appreciate stories about family and nature, this episode offers a thoughtful reminder that honey bees often teach us as much about ourselves as they do about beekeeping.

Dec3 (Epilogue of the Unknown) by Nikita Zabelin

Dec3 (Epilogue of the Unknown) by Nikita Zabelin

How can a honey bee with a brain smaller than a sesame seed communicate the exact location of food to thousands of nestmates? In this episode of Bee Science with Dewey, Dr. Dewey Caron explores one of the most remarkable discoveries in honey bee biology—the dance language. Beginning with the evolutionary pressures that shaped honey bee communication, Dewey explains why efficient foraging became essential for colonies surviving long northern winters. He describes how scout bees locate profitable nectar, pollen, water, and even potential nest sites before returning to the colony to recruit other foragers through highly structured dances. Listeners will learn the differences between the round dance, sickle dance, and waggle dance, and how each communicates information about distance, direction, and resource quality. Dewey also examines the groundbreaking research of Nobel Prize-winning scientist Karl von Frisch, whose meticulous experiments first decoded the language of bee dancing and forever changed our understanding of insect behavior. Along the way, the discussion explores how honey bees use the sun's position, gravity, sound, odors, and even subtle physiological changes to coordinate colony-level decision making. Dewey also highlights how scientific understanding continues to evolve as new discoveries refine earlier interpretations of bee communication. Whether you're a beginning beekeeper or a lifelong student of honey bee biology, this episode provides an engaging look into one of nature's most sophisticated communication systems and reminds us just how extraordinary a honey bee colony truly is.

Honey bee nutrition is more complex than simply providing protein. In this episode, Jeff Ott and Dr. Becky Masterman welcome Dr. Vincent Ricigliano to discuss emerging research exploring algae-based supplemental diets, functional feeds, RNA interference technologies, and new approaches to supporting colony health. Vincent explains how microalgae such as spirulina and chlorella may help improve supplemental feeding by providing highly bioavailable proteins, amino acids, lipids, vitamins, and micronutrients that more closely resemble natural pollen. The discussion explores how modern nutritional science can help create more complete diets for honey bees. The conversation also examines RNA interference (RNAi) technologies, including approaches designed to suppress viral pathogens and potentially manage Varroa mites. Vincent shares insights into ongoing research involving antiviral RNA delivery systems, sustainable production methods, and future biotechnology tools that may complement integrated pest management strategies. Along the way, the discussion touches on pollinator health, commercial beekeeping collaborations, miticide resistance, and the continuing search for practical tools that improve colony resilience under modern beekeeping conditions.

In this Bonus Short episode of Beekeeping Today, Stephanie Slater returns with another installment of Winning at Honey with Stephanie, sharing updates from a busy start to summer and offering practical guidance for preparing beeswax entries for honey show competition. Stephanie begins with highlights from the Heartland Apicultural Society Conference at Michigan State University, where attendees enjoyed presentations, vendors, social events, and hands-on apiary experiences. She also recaps teaching a youth beekeeping summer camp for fifth through eighth graders, where the students learned honey bee biology, made lip balm, tasted honey, and practiced simulated mite checks. The main focus of this episode is beeswax competition preparation. Stephanie explains what judges look for in beeswax exhibits, including cleanliness, appearance, aroma, texture, craftsmanship, proper weight, and compliance with show rules. She covers safety when melting beeswax, why lower heat and slower cooling produce better results, and which tools and materials help create cleaner, more polished entries. Stephanie also offers advice on candle molds, cotton wicking, primed wicks, centered wicks, flat bases, consistent candle pairs or sets, and how to avoid common defects such as cracks, debris, uneven surfaces, off aromas, and overheating. She emphasizes using clean cappings wax, checking weights carefully, reading the rules for each show, and practicing with new molds before entering competition.

It's a double feature for our goodbye to Kevin Smith on E&E! First up is the shockingly emotional end to the Clerks trilogy, followed up by Kevin's newest film - a love letter to his own childhood in the 80s!

In this episode of Beekeeping Today, Jeff Ott and Becky Masterman continue the Queen Series with Dr. Jack Rath, former owner of Betterbee, veterinarian, beekeeper, and queen breeder. The conversation focuses on instrumental insemination of honey bee queens, a highly technical process used to support selective breeding and maintain valuable honey bee genetics. Jack explains how he moved from beekeeping as a high school student to veterinary medicine, queen rearing, and eventually instrumental insemination. Drawing on his experience with reproductive work in cattle and horses, he describes both the similarities and major differences between livestock breeding and honey bee breeding. The discussion explores why instrumentally inseminated queens are usually considered breeder queens, how queen breeders select for traits such as Varroa resistance, gentleness, honey production, and overwintering ability, and why drone selection is just as important as queen selection. Jack also walks through the timing required to produce virgin queens, collect drones, harvest semen, inseminate queens, and provide proper aftercare. He explains why the process requires careful colony management, strong organizational skills, good timing, and a steady hand. The episode also touches on the importance of genetic diversity, the limits of selecting for a single trait, and why queen breeders must balance desirable characteristics without narrowing their breeding stock too far. Whether you are a backyard beekeeper curious about where queens come from or an experienced beekeeper interested in breeding programs, this conversation offers a clear, practical look at one of the most specialized skills in modern beekeeping.

The Honey Bee Health Coalition just released the 9th edition of the  Varroa Management Guide. For many beekeepers, this guide has become the go-to reference for cutting through misinformation and focusing on proven, research-backed practices. With this latest edition, the Coalition has made meaningful updates that reflect the increasing difficulty of controlling Varroa, even when best practices are followed. One of the most important changes is the adjustment of treatment thresholds. Becky points out that previous thresholds may not have been aggressive enough, particularly in environments where reinfestation pressure is high. The updated guide now takes a more responsive approach, incorporating seasonal context and more precise mite level guidance. In addition, the guide expands treatment options and improves decision-making frameworks. It integrates key variables such as temperature, brood presence, and honey production timing—helping beekeepers choose the right treatment at the right time while minimizing unintended consequences. Jeff emphasizes the ongoing challenge Varroa presents in the apiary, reinforcing the need for reliable guidance grounded in science. Together, he and Becky encourage listeners to download and study the updated guide, making it a central part of their Varroa management strategy. This short episode serves as both an announcement and a reminder: effective Varroa management requires staying current, adapting strategies, and relying on trusted resources.

Beekeepers often think of wax production as something that simply happens when colonies build comb. But what if bees are constantly moving wax throughout the hive, recycling it from one location to another as colony needs change? This week, Jeff and Becky welcome Massachusetts beekeeper Dave Wade to discuss his observations and experiments exploring how honey bees utilize and relocate wax within the colony. Dave's journey into beekeeping began nearly twenty years ago when concerns about pollination of backyard fruit trees led him to a local bee school. Since then, he has become an active member of the Worcester County Beekeepers Association and developed a reputation for practical experimentation and careful observation in the bee yard. The discussion focuses on Dave's work providing supplemental wax directly to colonies. Using strips and rolls of beeswax foundation placed inside frames, Dave has observed colonies rapidly incorporating the wax into comb construction, brood nest expansion, honey storage, and comb repairs. His experiments suggest that bees readily utilize available wax resources, especially later in the season when natural wax production slows. Dave shares results from several years of observations, including the use of colored wax to visually track wax movement within colonies. Collaborating with researchers including Dr. David Tarpy, Dr. Michael Smith, and Dr. David Peck, Dave has documented evidence that bees relocate wax significant distances throughout the hive, supporting brood rearing, honey capping, and comb construction. The conversation explores seasonal wax production, comb reduction, honey-bound colonies, package bee development, plastic versus wax foundation, and practical methods beekeepers can use to encourage comb building later in the season. Dave also discusses how supplemental wax may reduce colony energy expenditures and potentially improve colony productivity. Whether you're establishing new colonies, drawing foundation, managing honey-bound hives, or simply fascinated by honey bee behavior, this episode offers a fresh look at one of the colony's most important building materials.

In this sixth installment of Bee Science with Dr. Dewey Caron, Dewey turns attention to one of the final major management tasks of the summer beekeeping season: removing honey supers and preparing honey for extraction and storage. Building on the previous discussion about timely supering, Dewey explains why proper honey super removal is every bit as important as adding supers at the right time. He emphasizes that beekeepers should only remove honey when they are fully prepared to process it, reminding listeners that bees know how to protect their honey stores far better than we do. Delays between harvest and extraction can lead to quality issues, robbing, fermentation concerns, and unnecessary management complications. Dewey reviews the concepts of over-supering and under-supering, discusses colony space management as nectar flows begin to decline, and explains the importance of monitoring whether bees have fully occupied newly added supers. He also addresses the role of queen excluders, baiting supers, and ensuring colonies are actively using available storage space. The episode provides a detailed overview of the primary methods used to remove bees from honey supers, including bee escape boards, fume boards, bee blowers, and the traditional bounce-and-brush technique. Dewey explains the advantages and limitations of each approach and discusses situations where one method may be preferred over another. Additional topics include handling brood discovered in supers, preventing robbing behavior during harvest, managing partially capped honey, using refractometers to measure moisture content, and understanding the risks of storing unprocessed honey supers. Dewey concludes with practical recommendations to help beekeepers protect honey quality while preparing colonies for the transition toward fall management.

Moving package bees across North America is a specialized business that most beekeepers never see firsthand. In this episode, Jeff and Becky welcome Chris Hansen of Rhinelander, Wisconsin, a longtime beekeeper, bee supplier, and professional package bee hauler, to discuss the unique challenges of transporting thousands of honey bees safely across the country. Chris shares how his beekeeping journey began nearly thirty years ago and how a small sideline operation gradually expanded into bee sales, a beekeeping supply business, and eventually a dedicated package bee transportation company. What started as a necessity to move his own bees evolved into a specialized service trusted by beekeepers throughout the United States. The conversation explores the science and logistics of package bee transportation, including airflow management, temperature control, loading and unloading procedures, route planning, driver coordination, and the importance of minimizing stress on the bees during transit. Chris explains how years of experience and trial-and-error led to the development of specialized trailers designed specifically to move large numbers of package bees safely over long distances. Chris also discusses the realities of operating a trucking business, including fuel costs, regulatory requirements, equipment investments, driver recruitment, and the responsibility that comes with transporting living livestock. Along the way, he shares lessons learned from early failures and the continual refinements that have improved bee survival and package quality. Before the interview, Jeff and Becky discuss honey super timing, spring nectar flows, colony growth, swarm prevention, and answer a listener question about common misconceptions among third-year beekeepers. Whether you manage two colonies or two thousand, this episode provides a fascinating look behind the scenes at one of the least-discussed but most essential parts of modern beekeeping.

Energy Markets Podcast host Bryan Lee explains why he has returned to publishing regular episodes of the podcast after a two-year sabbatical. "I feel compelled to return," Lee says, citing "the looming threat of a retreat from electricity regulatory reforms that have provided billions of dollars in benefits to consumers."Lee also draws on his long career in energy and environmental policy to provide the history of competitive reforms over the past 30 years intended to replace monopoly regulation of electricity prices with market-based pricing. "While the decades-old model for competitive electricity markets needs to be improved, we shouldn't lose sight of the benefits we've derived – billions in consumer savings and a consistently cleaner electric industry," Lee says. "It would be a tragedy if we returned to monopoly regulation rather than take the steps needed to make the markets work better."Support the show

Jennie Durant, PhD, joins Beekeeping Today to discuss her new book, Bitter Honey: Big Ag's Threat to the Bees and the Fight to Save Them. Drawing from more than fifteen years of research, interviews, and fieldwork, Jennie explores the complex relationship between commercial beekeeping and modern agriculture. She shares how her interest in honey bees began during her graduate studies in the Philippines and eventually led to a PhD focused on the challenges facing managed pollinators in large-scale agricultural systems. Jennie discusses the evolution of commercial beekeeping in response to the growing demand for almond pollination and how intensified management practices—including supplemental feeding, migratory pollination, and aggressive mite control—have become necessary to maintain colony health and profitability. She explains how habitat loss, monoculture agriculture, pesticide exposure, climate change, and economic pressures have created a difficult environment for both beekeepers and bees. The conversation also explores the often-contentious discussions surrounding honey bees and native pollinators. Jennie emphasizes that habitat loss is the underlying issue affecting all pollinators and advocates for expanding forage resources rather than framing the discussion as a competition between species. Becky and Jeff discuss the importance of habitat restoration, pollinator-friendly land management, and the role beekeepers can play in supporting broader conservation efforts. Jennie highlights organizations such as the Bee and Butterfly Habitat Fund and discusses practical actions individuals can take to improve forage availability for pollinators. She also shares stories gathered while researching the book, including the challenges commercial beekeepers have faced in obtaining effective mite treatments over the years. Throughout the discussion, Jennie provides a thoughtful and balanced perspective on the realities facing modern beekeeping while offering hope through examples of innovative habitat projects, conservation programs, and collaborative efforts aimed at improving conditions for managed and native bees alike.

In this edition of Winning Honey with Stephanie, Stephanie Slater checks in on her own honey show preparations and admits that her comb honey supers still aren't ready despite last month's plans. A strong nectar flow in southeastern Wisconsin has kept her busy in the bee yard, including hosting a retail partner for an apiary visit that showcased queen cells, egg-laying activity, pollen collection, and royal jelly production. Stephanie looks ahead to the major honey competitions coming in January, including the North American Honey and Beeswax Championship, the American Honey Show, and the Midwest Honey Bee Expo Honey Show. She also discusses the recent transition of the American Honey Show Training Council to the newly named American Honey Judges Association (AHJA), including new membership opportunities, governance changes, and the launch of a new website. The episode also highlights an engaging activity from the Wisconsin Honey Producers Association Summer Meeting: the Black Jar Honey Tasting Contest. Stephanie explains how the contest works, why it encourages participation from both competitive and non-competitive beekeepers, and how it showcases the remarkable diversity of honey flavors produced within a single state. The main educational focus of this month's segment is a reminder that one of the most important skills for honey show success is carefully reading the rules. Stephanie shares lessons learned from her own exhibiting experiences, explains the details exhibitors should review before preparing entries, and offers practical advice to avoid common mistakes that can result in lost points or disqualification. The episode concludes with a spotlight on the North Carolina Bee Jubilee Honey Show and encouragement for exhibitors to continue learning, competing, and sharing their experiences within the honey judging community.
