More than Honey | Dirk Hughes | TEDxMacatawa

[@TomLeedsTheAtheist]

I started a hive this year, I've wanted to for decades and I finally did it. Went along very well with my garden. It's been amazing, I suggest it for everyone.

[@ethanwild3301]

Still good?

[@ultraali453]

Its been a few years. Please tell us how it went.

[@almac9203]

​@@ultraali453 my 7 year old niece had a friend start a hive in the backyard and they donated the honey to the school to sell for charity. The honey was probably the best I have ever had. There is something about fresh honey straight from the hive. Also a fun family activity.

Tough crowd. Great presentation.

[@anonnyanonymous4800]

Excellent video and very interesting!

[@VictorFursov]

Thank you for interesting and funny video. Best wishes and good luck! If you have some bees in your garden, or insects pests in your garden, you can show it to me too.

[@kimbo7496]

The drone sounds a lot like my husband 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@bobleclair5665]

I buy a couple of toilet ring wax at Home Depot for the bees wax,just cost a few dollars, living on a boat,it comes in handy for a lot of things that rust or stick

[@gorgig9136]

Make them like humans, only it's no in side corruption, welfare, and don't killing others.

We humans are so greedy.

[@jhonlee1056]

I think dogs are more greedy humans love to eat dogs 🐕🐕🐕🍜🍜🍜🍞🍞🍞🍞

[@AlexiHolford]

I agree. I am vegan and don’t eat honey.

[@jamesnguyen7069]

[@maggiesierra8726]

What is the different between. Just honey and RAW HONEY.

[@almac9203]

Regular honey is heated. Some people believe the beneficial enzymes are destroyed by the heat.

Tough audience...ah ahhahaha

[@charlenesessionskandl5401]

Is the audience even alive? Maybe this is a Covid19 filming in which there is no local audience present.

[@elephantcup]

DE-INTERLACE.

[@patrickwalsh6873]

3:24. Factually incorrect, in a very big way.

[@Paul-ug8fy]

quite a few major errors in here

[@michiganmasonicmuseumandli7153]

@@Paul-ug8fy I would welcome specific instances where I made major errors in my presentation. Like anyone, I want to know the subject as best I can and if you think I can improve in that regard I would certainly appreciate you pointing out where exactly I can improve. Thanks in advance for helping me out!

[@michiganmasonicmuseumandli7153]

So, you're saying drones do have stingers? All the sources I can find state they don't have stingers. I look forward to you helping me understand the subject better. Thanks in advance.

[@patrickwalsh6873]

@@michiganmasonicmuseumandli7153 Hi, I was actually referring to the comment that 'the drones are there to mate and that's all they do'.

[@michiganmasonicmuseumandli7153]

@@patrickwalsh6873 I appreciate your clarification. My explanation of the drones role was a rhetorical device to give the presentation a little bit of humor. These TED talks need to be entertaining as well as informational. My purpose in the 14 minutes I had available was to promote beekeeping in the best way I could with the time I had, which means I may have not been able to go into details as deeply as some would like. If you really think my statement about the drones was factually incorrect "in a very big way", please let me know how you would have addressed the role of the drone in a more effective way had you been giving the presentation. You never know, I may give this presentation at some other time and I would definitely consider feedback to make it better. Thanks!
