    Honey Bees Part 1

    Ah the venerable Honeybee. Humanities history with this insect stretches back beyond the written word, even beyond podcasts. This incomprehensible timeframe has left people with a lot of time to figure out many different ways to keep, collect, and utilize honeybees. This is the focus of our first episode on honeybees, where we cover topics like early honey collection methods, the development of beekeeping, and the competing theories around the honeybees evolutionary origins.

    Pierre Andre Latreille

    Pierre Andre Latreille, a French entomologist who lived from 1762-1833, is probably best known for having his life saved by a beetle. However there's a lot more to his story, and he went on to make a number of sigificant contributions to the field of entomology ( all thanks to the beetle ).
