Life has been doing it's thing for Bee and Strawb, so they thought they'd release a 30 minute episode to give you an update - they're talking personal highs, new passions, and podcast plans still to come. And of course, it's all happening on a boat! (If you want to know why, just listen). The Bee and The Berry is also taking this time to celebrate the two-year marker! Thank you, listener, for joining us on this (boat) ride. Bee and Strawb love having you on it and they hope you'll stay with them for many years to come.

All Episodes can also be found on Youtube!

Bee and Strawbz went to Sonic Expo: Dallas last weekend and are here to talk about the rip-roarin' good time they had. From raves, to panels, to merch, to REAL, LIVE PEOPLE(!) Sonic Expo has something for everyone. Thanks again to everyone who helped the event run, and everyone who we met and got a poster, card, or paperback copy of "What Was Stolen." Hope to see you there again in a year!

We asked and you (very generously!) answered by asking... So now... we're going to answer! Again! Ah, it's a BBeeQnA - you get it. This month, we asked for questions about all things Sonic girls! We've got piping hot questions about female characters, controversial opinions, girl talk, and more. Sit down, dig in, and get ready for Bee and Strawbz to girlypop all over main!

It's kind of incredible how the most intelligent, generous, and talented people keep stumbling into our tarot shop looking for pizza? This month, comic and novel writer Lorenzo Hall pours out a torrent of wisdom that is sure to leave you both completely inspired AND absolutely sick of puns! We're talking creative turmoil, the hardships of working within industry confines, community, and Tails' canon gambling problem on this episode of The Bee and The Berry - enjoy!

We decided to do something dumb and this video is the consequence! Join Bee and Strawbz as they live-write a collaborative one-shot featuring [REDACTED] and [REDACTED] doing [REDACTED]. This episode has tips on editing, lots of Chaos Cola, piss on the floor (???), and a fully sound-designed radio play of the final product featuring the voice talent stylings of @SongbirdsMelody! It's a real treat and a rip-roaring good time of an episode, and we hope you have as much fun listening to it as we did making it - if not, even more!
