A conversation with Ted Dennard and Amy Smilovic. Ted is the Founder & Head Beekeeper of Savannah Bee Company, an independent brand based in Savannah, Georgia specializing in elevated honey and honeybee products. He is reshaping the way we see bees - encouraging people to move beyond the commercialized image of the plastic honey bear and to instead appreciate the brilliance of the bees themselves. Amy and Ted’s shared upbringing on the small island of St. Simons Island, Georgia, guides the conversation, touching on the origins of Ted's fascination with beekeeping and the non-negotiables intrinsic to running an independent business, made complete by raw stories of failure and regret, as the intricacies of staying authentic are woven throughout. The episode was shot and produced live in at 666 Studios.
