About

The guys were all abuzz for this week's show! Amateur beekeeper and singer, Missy Burgess joined the guys in the Lounge! Sam teased Missy's hang out with a story she told his wife, at work! It was an amazingly funny story, and enlightening that even bees do this too! WHO WOULD'VE thought! They then jump into what brought her into beekeeping! The answer might not be what you think. Just how amazing are bees? What happens when a hive isn't flourishing? What if a hive loses its queen? How much of what bees produce is something that can be used by humans? IS HONEY JUST BEE VOMIT?! ALL of these questions get answered!What about mating?! How often does mating happen, and exactly where does the "moment" happen? Do the male bees tend to the babies? Yep, these get answered too!From bee classes to getting the bees and putting them in boxes, Missy tells us ALL ABOUT getting into the bee business! The guys talked to Missy ONE DAY before getting the year's bees! Missy talks about how many bees they get when they arrive, and she also talks about how they are shipped! She then talks about the harvesting of the honey, and the process THEY go through getting the honey! She talks about them still having SOME honey from last year's harvest, and Sam offers the Let's Chat! Hotline as a way for the Loyal Loungers to get some honey! Just text (682) 800-CHAT (2428) and let the guys know you want some honey, and they will set up a way of payment (including shipping), and they will then send it to you!What an amazing and un-bee-lievable show! Missy was fantastic, and the guys are interested in going and seeing the hive! It's amazing hearing all these fantastic things about bees, and hearing Missy talk about how she loves keeping bees! SO, sit back, relax & #grabalisten!Parts of the episode are "visual," and the video will be out soon!
