I really appreciate everything in laymen’s terms. It was like beekeeping for dummies. And a gentle yet brutally honest journey through the journey of life with bees for someone like me who literally knew nothing about them in the beginning. Now I feel like I could join a beekeeper society and not be entirely lost or intimidated. Thank you so much for the leg up!!

A.K.A…… Beekeeping for dummies :)

Covers the basics for us new-bees. That being said, some of the bee jokes were just a bit beeyond my preference.
Only true negative critique would be the editing- should have done a better edit, as the reader loudly and audibly clears her throat in the middle of the reading (at least once) and that should have gotten cut out (it’s really distracting and kinda funny that it slipped through the edit)
Overall though, it’s a decent listen with some good material and a few laughs at the expense of poor bee puns and honey-humor.

Pretty good basic info
