Belly Podcast - 7 April 2026 Sweet Beats

Today we’re talking about something tiny but massively important: the HONEYBEE.

Across Australia, including right here in NSW, our bees are under pressure like never before. The parasite called the Varroa mite has well and truly arrived, and it’s changing the future of beekeeping, farming, and even the food on our plates.

Varroa has reshaped the way we care for our hives, the way we think about honey, and the way we manage pests in a world that values clean, chemical‑free food. It’s a story that stretches from the flowers in our gardens to the shelves in our kitchens, and it’s a story still being written.

On the show today we’ll explore what Varroa really means for bees and beekeepers, the chemical and organic treatments now forced to be part of hive management, and how those choices connect to the quality of the honey we buy and the values we hold. 

But more importantly, we’ll honour the remarkable resilience of the people behind the hives, because if there’s one thing this journey has shown, it’s that beekeepers are innovators, problem‑solvers, and caretakers of both bees and landscapes.

Belly Podcast - 31 March 2026. Guests: European and Native Bees

This week you’re invited to join me for an exploration into The Culture of Fermentation. Something you can never know enough about! We’ll nose-dive into the bubbling, fizzing, wonderfully weird world of microbes and the drinks they create.  Today we’re talking about one of the most fascinating little bio‑communities you can keep right on your kitchen counter: kefir grains.

Since 2007 my guest Edna Dafna, co-founder and Master Brewer at Yogi Nectar, has been learning to master the growth and harness the power of the original live kefir probiotic culture, drawing from the wisdom of the Tibetan Monks, the original keepers of this potent probiotic live culture.

By preserving the ancient and traditional benefits through their custom-built manufacturing processes, they’ve managed to maintain the high nutritional value of this culture.

The founder’s vision is to give what they’ve been given and share the knowledge and wisdom they’ve gained with the world so that ALL may flourish and live well.
