  • I’m Not Just an Animal Nutritionist: What Is Animal Nutrition, Really?
    Jun 25 2025

    Send us a text

    In the premiere episode of Coffee in the Barn, Dr. Casey Bradley answers a deceptively simple question: What is animal nutrition?

    But this conversation goes far beyond feed and formulas. In this opening installment of our new series “I’m Not Just an Animal Nutritionist,” Casey shares how she entered the field, what animal nutrition truly encompasses, and why it plays a foundational role in animal health, sustainability, and food systems around the world.

    Alongside Alex—our AI co-learner and curious mentee—Dr. Bradley walks us through:

    • The difference between human and animal nutrition
    • Why 70% of production costs hinge on nutrition
    • What can go wrong with deficiencies or toxicities
    • The core nutrients animals need (and how they get them)
    • The diverse career paths in animal nutrition
    • And what most people don’t realize about this vital science

    Whether you’re a student, producer, pet brand, or fellow nutritionist—this episode will challenge the way you think about animal feed and open your eyes to the science, strategy, and heart behind it all.

    ☕ Pull up a seat, pour your coffee, and step into the barn.

  • Rewriting the Code: Ancestral Genes, AI, and the Future of Health with Dr. Howard Urnovitz
    Jun 12 2025

    Send us a text

    In this provocative episode of Coffee in the Barn, Dr. Casey Bradley sits down with molecular biologist, immunologist, and biotech pioneer Dr. Howard Urnovitz, whose lifelong mission to understand—and challenge—how we think about disease started with personal tragedy and led to scientific transformation.

    From launching the first FDA-approved urine test for HIV to founding FBB Biomed, Dr. Urnovitz walks us through the intersection of RNA sequencing, endogenous viruses, and artificial intelligence—tools he believes hold the key to curing everything from cancer to neurological disease.

    💡 Along the way, we explore the darker side of modern life:
    – Why ultra-processed food and environmental toxins may be rewriting our DNA
    – How junk DNA might not be junk at all
    – And why our public health systems are still stuck in outdated models

    🚀 Dr. Urnovitz also introduces his new book, Unnatural Selection, a powerful call to rethink how we define health, treat disease, and educate the next generation of scientists.

    Whether you’re in the lab, in the barn, or on the frontlines of public policy, this episode will challenge everything you thought you knew about genetics, diagnostics, and the future of biotechnology.

    You’ll hear about:

    ✔️ How RNA signals can predict disease before symptoms
    ✔️ Why “junk” DNA and endogenous viruses might hold the answers to chronic illness
    ✔️ The role of AI in decoding massive genomic datasets
    ✔️ How agriculture, animal health, and human health are connected at the genetic level
    ✔️ A call to re-educate the next generation of researchers—with curiosity, not conformity
