Bobby Kerr Interview – Newstalk

On Saturday, June 3, I had the incredible opportunity to appear on Bobby Kerr’s renowned radio program, Down to Business, on Newstalk Radio in an interview about bees and business. The show featured a captivating discussion about bees and business, in the section Industry Review, bringing together Ken Norton of FIBKA (Federation of Irish Beekeepers’ Association), third-generation Beekeeper Stuart Hayes (who also happened to give me some great beekeeping tips when I first started beekeeping many moons ago!), and myself. It was a great experience, delving into the fascinating world of bees and beekeeping and exploring the intersection between beekeeping as a hobby and beekeeping as a commercial viability.

Bobby Kerr’s Down to Business show is a platform that sheds light on diverse industries and topics, and it was a privilege to have the chance to contribute to the discussion about bees.
