Favorite Podcast
Imagine you’ve spent a full day working with bees, celebrating their striving, startled by their surprises, & defeated by their demises. You go to sleep that night with a smile and a question. Or two. Or nine. Then you wake up early in the morning to run over to the donut and coffee shop in the middle of a small rural town in Ohio, where you meet with your friend Jim and perhaps one of his guests. The three of you sit together for 20 minutes and talk about what was what, what is, and what possibly could be. That’s the podcast. t’s that simple. And it’s enough to keep you going into that bee yard for the next six days. It’s not a master class at a university filled with curricular complexities. They could do that and have before. There are places for that. No, this is a diner of discussion, delving in to everything from dearth’s & dead-outs, to daydreams of waggle dancing. And for a university professor like me who is new to beekeeping, and misses the days of working & questioning alongside his grandfather - who I miss dearly - it can’t get much better than this.

Just a delight!
This new-bee beekeeper just loves this show!

Love and prayers, Kim! 💛🙏🕯

Just what I needed!
I’m new to bee keeping and this is just the type of conversation and information that I need to answer my questions, help me make decisions, and feel like I’m making good informed decisions. Thank you.

So much information delivered, in a fun easy format.
Kim Flottum and Jim Tew have a great knowledge base and voice the subject matter in an easy to listen format.

A FAVORITE.
These two are pretty much legends in the beekeeping teaching and education world. It’s such a treat to listen to them just talk to each other about every day beekeeping. Well done!

The perfect podcast
No drama, no big egos, just a couple of old, experienced beekeepers chatting and telling stories about bees and beekeeping. Great stuff.

Short topics
I love the short subject discussions. Love the interaction between you all.

I like this video because it’s played a lot that
End it also explains how I can get better at this craft that I can move on I’m game peas from a guy that does beekeeping and I’m probably also getting it came beers off-line so I probably will send you guys a picture of it

Practical
Thanks guys. Enjoy and agree with your usually common sense approach. ABC. (aged beekeeper)

Great podcast!!
I could listen to these guys read the phone book and it would be entertaining. They’re so funny and easy to listen to but what’s even better is they know their stuff so well that they break things down and make it all seem simple. I’m a first year beekeeper and I’ve learned so much listening to this podcast.

I just love these guys!
I’ve been sitting here all afternoon listening to episode after episode as I put handles on my pottery mugs(My other hobby!) Each episode is ye perfect length and I look forward to the next! I’ve learned so much in one afternoon! I’m learning new ways to care for my bees and I am being enlightened, and entertained at the same time. I also love how they gently tease each other from time to time, it makes me chuckle! Thanks, gentlemen! Ali in Methuen MA 🎶🐝

Fave beecast
This is my favorite be related podcast by far! I have probably checked out every podcast out there on the cake and this one is best concise and informative. There is, however no substitute for membership in your-l local bee 🐝 club!

Great podcast!!
I love this podcast. Kim and Jim are absolute experts in their field and their off the cuff discussions are extremely interesting. I look forward to every Thursday for a new episode. I especially appreciate the transcripts of the episodes, which come in handy in case I need to look something up. With their Sentry of knowledge combined, these beekeepers are the crème de la crème. Keep it up guys!

A great podcast!
Tons of great knowledge with a touch of comedy to keep you coming back for more, these two know their stuff and will help educate or remind us novice to the forgetful pros on just about everything in the beekeeping world!

A pleasure
Such a pleasure to listen to two long-tine beekeepers who are as wise as they are experienced. Unlike so many other podcasts, they show a level of humility that is rare these days, especially in the world of beekeeping!

Great podcast!!
I look forward to each & every Thursday so I can listen to Kim & Jim. Their knowledge is beyond reproach & I love the format. Keep it up!! The beekeepinmg community is in good hands with these two experts!!

Entertaining, Fun & Educational
I completely enjoy listening to Kim Flottum and Jim Tew in this short and informal podcast. Best enjoyed with a cold lawn mower beer in hand! Wonderful and unpretentious.

Informative and thoughtful
I have learned so much from this podcast. Their laid back approach makes it enjoyable to listen to.

Relaxing voice of the Betterbee sponsor
Hi Jim and Kim, love the show but am really enjoying the lady’s voice who does the Betterbee sponsor, have you considered having her participate in the show a little, maybe just let her “add her 2 cents” to your observations? Sincerely Dave

Review
I love the relaxed conversations about bees, so much information that is out there about Bees is so complicated and makes you feel like you if you don’t do it a certain way it’s always wrong. These guys are making me feel a lot more relaxed about my beekeeping worries.

Great job young fellas
I listen to a few different podcasts but by far you guys are my favorite. So much information that’s put in a way average joes like myself can understand. Also done in a fun way, I dare anyone to try to listen without learning or chuckling at some point. Thanks guys, excellent job!

The show
Hey guys I have really enjoyed the podcast. The best part is it sorta takes me back to days gone bye back at ATI. Thank you Troy Leibengood

My favorite
This is my favorite Bee Keeping podcast. Informative. Straightforward. Short. I like the back and forth between the two gentlemen that host it. It’s like evesdropping on two older men at the bee club having a conversation and then it’s over. I like short podcast but I wish this one was longer. Keep it up

Informative and fun
The discussions are light and conversational. I find that I’m picking up lots of proven techniques that I’ll be able to apply to my own hives. Thanks, gentlemen, for sharing your time and knowledge with us.

The show
Hey guys the podcasts are great. I have a mobile extracting room Jim if you ever need it. Also I’m interested in sponsoring the show let me know. Troy Leibengood

The Jim and Kim show
Short sweet and to the point if I could give it 10 stars I would

Great Beekeeping Podcast!
Excellent Podcast for all things honeybee!
