In 2012, a commercial beekeeper named Jeffrey Gibbs was on the show to talk about a dire situation Australian beekeepers were experiencing. Next week, Jeffrey will be our featured guest to talk about what has happened. For now, it is important for people to understand exactly what transpired four years ago and how things have digressed since.
