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.”

I hate to admit this but we just took down our Christmas tree a few days ago, weeks after our neighbors had decorations up for Valentine’s Day. I would blame it on the farm but we have always been late getting rid of our tree. I think our record is early March. At least this year we have a free tree removal service!
For weeks the feed store has had a sign out saying “chicks coming soon!” Today we drove by it and I did a double take. “Chicks are here!” So the kids and I made a dramatic u-turn with plans to just “see” the chicks. And we did see them. In fact, we still see them because they came home with us! 🤣Whoops. We got 4 Easter eggers and 2 Olive eggers. Lynn if you’re reading this, the little buggers begged to come home with us - how could we say no?!
The cold weather here in Florida annihilated our tomato plants before the tomatoes could ripen. We were overrun with green tomatoes, so we tried making fried green tomatoes for the first time. Honestly I had never fried anything before this! We did not really follow a recipe other than making sure we had the three staple items. You have one bowl of flour and corn meal mixed, a bowl of eggs and milk mixed together, and a bowl of breadcrumbs. When we try it again, I will add some kind of seasoning to the flour and cornmeal mix, maybe garlic and salt. First dip the tomato slice into the cornmeal/flour, then the egg/milk, then breadcrumbs. Then you just put oil in your pan, we used olive oil, and fry them up! Only takes a couple minutes. It was super easy and the kids loved it. I have heard that there are some good dipping sauces out there. We are simple people so we just used ketchup and mustard. I highly recommend trying this - it’s impossible to fail!
Here's a video that explains why we should try to source eggs from producers like Alison and other responsible farmers whenever possible.
