Made a normal approach to landing and was explaining the setup procedures to a passenger who happens to be a pilot. Got distracted in the conversation and did not notice that the Landing Gear did not deploy; resulting in a Gear Up Landing. When aircraft was raised; the gear deployed after the CB was reset.
Bonanza pilot reported being distracted by conversation with a passenger and forgot to lower the landing gear.
