Adam Martin is a natural, sustainable beekeeper based in Middle Tennessee, specializing in treatment-free, chemical-free beekeeping using wild, locally adapted bees. In this episode, Adam breaks down why most honey on store shelves — even the stuff labeled raw, organic, and local — is little more than glorified sugar water, how Big Ag has quietly corrupted the beekeeping industry from the ground up, and why returning to the way bees were always meant to live might be the simplest and most powerful upgrade you can make to your family's health. 00:00 Becoming a Beekeeper in Tennessee 05:40 What's the best food for bees? 11:30 Not all Honey is the Same 17:20 Commercial vs Backyard Success Rate  21:20 Methods of Beekeeping & How Adam Teaches It 30:30 How to Trap & Catch Feral Bees 39:00 Being Good Stewards of the Land 44:00 The Danger of Varroa Mites  45:30 Honeybees are Not Native to the U.S. 48:30 Can Bees Sense Fear? 51:50 The Return to Nature 56:20 Does Better Honey Mean Better Health? 01:00:30 The Reward of Hard Work 01:09:40 Mind-Blowing Queen Bee Facts 01:13:10 Learn More About Beekeeping

Air Week: May 11-17, 2026 Imperial Records, Pt. 9 – 1956, Pt. 2 Imperial Records was a major player among the indie labels of the late 1940s and the entirety of the 1950s. Started in Los Angeles in 1946 by Lew Chudd, a Canadian raised in Harlem, Imperial began filling the ethnic and cultural voids left by the majors at the time. Chudd knew there was a large market for Latino Music in America, so he headed to Mexico City and recorded some Mexican jump bands that sold very well. He then included square dance records which also racked up sales as now square dances could be held without callers. He began recording Rhythm & Blues in 1947 and by ’49, he had hired Dave Bartholomew to scout talent in fertile New Orleans. The Braun Brother had beat him to The Crescent City by recording Paul Gayten and Annie Laurie first, but with Bartholomew’s help, Chudd was able to sign Fats Domino, Smiley Lewis, Archibald and Jewel King, dominating the New Orleans R&B scene. This week, we continue our Imperial series with part nine, focusing on Imperial’s R&B releases from the second half of 1956. Fats Domino has the biggest hit of his entire career with “Blueberry Hill,” a tune that Dave Bartholomew did not think he should record. It sold millions and millions and topped the R&B charts and landing at a whopping #2 on the pop chart. Matt The Cat presents the story behind that monumental release as well as spinning some great and seldom heard vocal group records from The Barons, The Victorials, The Dukes and The Honey Bees, a female group. We’ll also dig on some solid R&B releases from Johnny Fuller, Ernie Freeman and Gloria Jean Pitts as we keeps those records spinning on part nine of the Imperial Records Story on this week’s “Juke In The Back.” LISTEN BELOW

Honey bees might technically be an introduced species but despite that, we think it's fair to say we generally see them as a good thing. They're the engine of our world leading honey industry, and play a vital role pollinating crops like Kiwifruit, apples and clover. In fact, their contribution is valued at over $5 billion annually. But according to new research from the University of Auckland, they might also be playing a role in the destruction of our native trees Jesse is joined by senior scientist at New Zealand Institute for Bioeconomy Science Dr David Pattemore.

In this episode of Lab Rats to Unicorns, John Flavin sits down with Dr. Gene Robinson, a pioneering scientist in the biology of social behavior and a professor at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. Widely recognized for his groundbreaking work in genomics and neuroscience, Dr. Robinson has spent decades uncovering how genes influence behavior—using the complex societies of honeybees as his model system. From leading the sequencing of the honeybee genome to advancing our understanding of how environment and biology interact, Dr. Robinson's work has reshaped how scientists think about the relationship between genes and behavior. Now stepping into his role as Executive Director and CEO of the Discovery Partners Institute, he is focused on applying artificial intelligence and interdisciplinary collaboration to real-world challenges across industry and society. This conversation explores the evolution of genomics, the surprising plasticity of behavior at the molecular level, and the implications of this work for fields ranging from medicine to AI. At its core, this episode is about curiosity, persistence, and the power of following a question—from a beekeeping hobby at age 17 to discoveries that challenge how we understand human potential.

In the early 2000s, Sunil Nakrani felt stuck. Back then, websites crashed all the time. When Sunil noticed this, he decided he was going to fix the internet. But after nearly a year of studying the architecture of the web, he was no closer to an answer. In desperation, Sunil sent out a raft of cold emails to engineering professors. He hoped someone, anyone, could help him figure this out. Eventually, he learned that the internet could only be fixed if he paid attention to the humble honeybee. This is the story of the Honeybee Algorithm: How tech used honeybees to build the internet as we know it.Special thanks to John Bartholdi, John Vande Vate, Sammy Ramsey, James Marshall, Steve Strogatz, Duc Pham, and Heiko Hamann.We found out about this story thanks to our friends at AAAS, who run the one and only Golden Goose Awards. The award goes to government funded science that sounds trivial or bizarre, but goes on to change the world. The Honeybee Algorithm won a Golden Goose Award back in 2016 (https://www.goldengooseaward.org/01awardees/honey-bee-algorithm). Thank you to our friends there: Erin Heath, Gwendolyn Bogard, Valeria Sabate, Joanne Padron Carney, and Meredith Asbury. EPISODE CREDITS: Reported by - Latif Nasserwith help from - Maria Paz GutiérrezProduced by - Maria Paz Gutiérrez, Annie McEwen and Pat Waltersand Edited by  - Pat WaltersEPISODE CITATIONS:Videos - Golden Goose Award video about 2016 winners (https://zpr.io/eXwTJKGL6F8S) Books -The Wisdom of the Hive: The Social Physiology of Honeybee Colonies (https://www.hup.harvard.edu/books/9780674953765) by Thomas D.
