- Hey all,
Please enjoy this interview with Randy Oliver, one of the leading experts in the Beekeeping community. Randy started keeping Bees in 1966. Since then, he has created a migratory beekeeping operation in California, and currently runs around 1000-1500 hives with his two sons. Randy hosts the website Scientific Beekeeping where he posts all of the research information.
It was truly a pleasure being able to interview Randy. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

This is the best interview I have heard Randy give. He is brilliant and instead of a lot of overload he explains what’s important. Loved it
Couldn't agree more. Appreciate you watching.
You should have asked him about his new research. It’s about thymol. Since he published that article that’s all the talk.
I had so many question in mind, but kept it limited due to time. Maybe an upcoming live though. . We have to check schedules.
So many commercials.
Apologies. RUclips places those.
OMGosh. Two things.
1. Randy. speaks of little ads on his website and I get 10 watching this short video. How ironic. Like varroa.. The damned things just keep on Popping up. 😢
2. The best interviewers let the interviewee speak. All your interuptions and pretty much irrelavent anectodal stories pretty much heavily diminished this interview.
Known Randy 40 + years. Hes way better that. you boxed him into.
Id say that at least 30% of the time was underutilized if the goal was to provide useful anf relavent info to the general beeping public.
Probably won't tune into any more if the next one is equivalently poorly done.
Appreciate you watching. While I could have gone the typical route and asked about his research, I felt there are plenty of videos on that, plenty of podcasts. I like to mix it up and toss curveball questions. Randy saying two times, nobody has ever asked that was rewarding for me.
I do very few of these and will admit I'm no professional.
@@CastleHives As Randy mentioned. None of us are. Especially bees. It's why I don't do RUclips. Hard enough to find time to master bees minimally. . Surprised you snagged him.
Well done sir! First interview of Randy Oliver, where I got to see more of the beekeeper as well as the researcher.
Glad you enjoyed it! I hope to get Randy scheduled on a Live here soon.
Thank you for the interview. I enjoyed it very much.
I appreciate you watching.
What a great interview. Well done.
Thank you.
Had to order a package with one of Randy's queens , not a full blood. OHB is making them
Oh, that is awesome Dan. You'll have to report how that works out for you.
@@CastleHives I see later in the interview they are in a isolated mating yard I guess i'll be making more queens off of them than I thought
Money well spent!
Agreed.
If your in cold climate areas your gonna lose bees it’s just the way it is
While I agree somewhat, I've had some years with a very high percentage that successfully overwintered.
@@CastleHives yes but what do you call winter I my winters are -25 to - 35 for long periods of time and my bees are all locked down for 5 months of the year it’s all on what time of winter you have most people in my area want to winter there bees inside that way they can have less loses
Our winters, on average last 4 or so months. The last 2 have been mild, but on average, where I'm located, we'll get snow in December and our last snow is in late March/April. They generally stay locked up that entire time.
*Watching this felt like a personal interview about bees. Best interview I've ever seen. Randy truly loves bees and nature. His knowledge aside, he does this from curiosity and love and you can tell this in this interview. I like these kind of interviews with beekeepers. All about personal experiences and learning, not really fact checking the entire interview. more of a personal touch. Great job both of you gents.*
Glad you enjoyed it Anel. It was great having Randy join and do this. Appreciate you watching. .
Love the background. QRD peaking. Great podcast.
Randy asked about the printers, and I went over the QRD. It was great having him join. Appreciate you watching Jason. We're going to try and line up schedules for a live.
First! 😊 I got a sense of hope from this conversation. Thanks for letting us know mites don't have to be in control of our bees!
You get the prize. .
It was a great conversation, Frank. Hope to line up schedules and have Randy join a live soon.
Nice job Brian. Great info. Thanks to you both!!!
Thanks for watching Keith. .
Thank you for arranging and sharing the interview.
Any time! Thank you for listening.
love and grateful for this interview! Awesome work Brian! Big ups to Randy for his wisdom!
Kayi. . Thank you. Randy is great. Appreciate you watching.
Love Randy’s simple honesty and his research. Really squashes the junk science out there because of his love for the bees. Thanks Brian for sharing the interview.
Well said! His years of experience, and also the way he goes about his research, is top notch. Appreciate you watching.
Great interview! Love his frankness -always great to him talk!
Thank you. Randy is great.
Brian, you asked some great questions allowing Randy to share his knowledge. Good job.
Glad you enjoyed it Russell.
Wow Brian what an interview! You are excellent at interviews , probably 1 of the best I have ever heard no joke! You had him speech less, he had never had that question. Perfect my friend!
Paul, thank you for the kind words. Randy made the interview, he is a seasoned vet at them. My goal was not to dig into the science, but to find out a little bit about him. Hope to have him on a Live in the future, we'll have to see how schedules line up. Appreciate you wacthing.
Loved the emphasis on being intuitive with bees - they don’t see the world like we humans do. And loved the hope for mite resistance bees!
Great intview 😊thanks for sharing this with us 😊
Glad you enjoyed it Brian.
Thank you very much for this you two, Great interview Brian. Thank you so much for your studies in non-synthetic treatments and sharing your time with us Randy. Blessed Days...
Thanks DC. . Appreciate you watching.
Love interviews like these! Thank you for all you are doing for our community.
Awe man Tim. . I'm just having fun and sharing my journey. We both are a part of a fantastic community.
Awesome great to see a more personal side of Randy thank u
More to come, I hope.
Great interview. Really good job 👍
Thank you, Peter. Appreciate you watching.
Well done Brian 😉👌🐝💪 I did speak with randy last year in UK in national honey show it's great Beekeeper and lots of fab information about Beekeeping 🐝👌
Thank you Randy 🐝
Thank you Brian 🤠
That's awesome. Appreciate you watching Sebastian.
That 🥰"Bee Buzz"🥰there isn't anything like it, Praise God for making me a Beekeeper. Thanks again Randy and Brian.👍
Thank you DC. I really enjoyed this interview, and happy to be able to share it.
Steppin up to the big leagues! Grats Brian on a great interview, not the normal "all data" talks. Hearing Randy say "no ones ever asked me that" twice was cool. The only thing... HOW could you not bring up Tropilaelaps. The upcoming battle in the never ending war? Estimates run 2-3 years and it's on.
I had several questions that I wanted to ask, but made sure i remained cognizant of his time. I'm going to work on trying to line up a live stream in the future. Appreciate you watching.
What a great interview Brian! Nice job!
Thank you Bruce. I had a lot of fun with this interview. Randy is great.
Wow Brian that was an outstanding interview! I heard a small side of Randy that I have not heard before because of your intuitive questions! Great Job!! 👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it! Appreciate you watching.
HEY!!!! I am a Master Beekeeper. And Randy is exactly right. The more I learn the more I realize I dont know. Great video Brian
So darn true. . Like he said, you learn each and every time you work the bees. I think that is what fascinates me. Appreciate you guys watching.
Thanks Brian and Randy
Any time!
Nice interview Brian ... thanks for putting this together.
I'm glad you enjoyed it, Terry. . It was a great interview.
Great interview
Thank you.
This was great Brian, thanks to both of you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Brian, I always enjoy listening to Randy. He is an audio book himself, full of knowledge! How in the world did you hook him for 50 minutes? Great interview.
Pure luck to get him for this long. Hope to have him on a live soon.
Good job, it's nice to hear the human side of beekeeping with Randy - sans all the data/science!
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it.
@@CastleHives minus the Dunning Kruger stuff tho....not that. 😎
@@JamesLeesBees I always think of Dunning Kruger because that more or less mirrors my Beekeeping journey. RIght now i'm on the slope of enlightenment.
@@CastleHivesthe slope of enlightenment is a concoction based on media distortion of the study's actual results and findings....that chart, is not from the paper itself but instead is more a meme of someone's distorted interpretation of the cognitive bias being discussed in the paper.
Ultimately Dr. Dunning says the study was more about being misinformed than actually being uninformed.
Ultimately the DK effect is highly criticized, but people like Randy Oliver and Rusty Burlew have popularized using the graph the media has made up to stratify beekeepers into classes of skill and disenfranchise those who have knowledge but less experience.
It's a catch 22. I'm not a betting man, but I'd put money on the fact that most who use the Dk effect to malign knowledge or applaud it ...have not read the study or its criticisms.
Which, ironically embodies the DK effect they are using to describe someone else.
...jus saying.

THank you
Appreciate you watching.
