Mike Donio is my guest tomorrow. He started Science Defined after 20 years as a research scientist. It aims to make science “approachable” to all. Here’s what he has written about himself - ANY QUESTIONS?:
“Most of my career has been in industry doing drug discovery and development research. I’ve seen some interesting things 👀.
Most recently I was a senior scientist at a biotech company in the immuno-oncology space where I helped to bring two antibodies into clinical trials.
That all ended in September of 2021 when my now former employer rejected my religious exemption and terminated me for failing to comply with their vaccine mandate.
It turned my life upside down but I am grateful for the incredible support I’ve had from my wife, kids and many others.
Since then I’ve been speaking out and sharing the truth about the current state of scientific research.
Hint: it’s not good.
I’ve shared my insights on all things covid as well.
But if we are going to move past the last 3 years and ensure it doesn’t happen again we need actionable solutions.
I’m working on that too and have just launched a new project, Science Defined.
My goal is to inspire and motivate more people to walk boldly in truth and to reclaim their God-given power over their health.
So, join me and let’s lay the foundation for a better future for our children. They are depending on it.”

This video shows Sassy in winter 2026 and winter 2023. That was the winter I surrendered to nature and we decided to flee back to Florida. We got blizzard after blizzard and Sassy was up to her belly in snow. But she loved it! Did you know that blanketing horses to keep them warm is actually a “hot” topic? (No pun intended.) Those who choose not to blanket often point to the horse’s natural ability to self regulate, and they say blankets interfere with that process (such as hair growth). I put a blanket on Sassy in Western Washington when I lived in Seattle because it was just so wet there all the time, and the blanket helped her stay a little more dry in the cold. On the east side of Washington, I did not blanket her, even though the temperature was much colder, because she was rarely wet, as the precipitation came down as snow and not rain. So I kind of chuckled when I blanketed her here in Florida a couple nights ago.
Operation “Arctic Florida” went well until the second day when the chickens started eating their own coop insulation. Since we are trying to keep our animal feed as natural as possible, polystyrene is not on the menu. So we had to rip down in the insulation. Thankfully, it’s getting back into the 70s right now, though it will be cold later in the week again. Chickens are just gonna have to freeze this time. You picked your poison, birds.
The morning after our coldest night in Florida was filled with bashing ice out of water buckets. When we lived in Washington state, we had bucket warmers, but we have never needed them here in Florida. Moving the chicken coop with all the insulation was a challenge. Milking the goats with frozen fingers was no fun but at least I wasn’t the goat having my teats grabbed by frozen fingers. Otherwise, it was just another crazy day on the farm!
