In this dynamic episode recorded live at World Pork Expo 2025, Dr. Casey Bradley sits down with four influential voices shaping the future of swine health and nutrition—covering everything from nursery pig performance to antibiotic strategy and feed biosecurity.
🎙️ Jesus Acosta (Novus International) introduces Novus PV, a protected benzoic acid product proven in Europe and now validated under U.S. zinc oxide conditions. He shares exciting feed conversion and immune response data, as well as insights into how lower-dose protected acids could complement traditional organics.
🎙️ Tommy Shipp (Feedworks) explains how eLife, a polyphenol blend mimicking a Mediterranean profile, can offset oxidative stress and partially replace vitamin E—potentially boosting performance and reducing costs. He also dives into CoRouge, a monovalent copper oxide product that shows nursery-stage success with lower inclusion rates and environmental impact.
🎙️ Dr. Megan Bollin (Norbrook) breaks down the advantages of Cefenil, a bioequivalent to Excenel with superior syringability and a short 4-day meat withdrawal time. She discusses PRRS management, antibiotic use strategies, and the real-world challenges of secondary co-infections in swine respiratory disease.
🎙️ Fredrik Sandberg (Feed Armor) presents the research and innovation behind FeedArmor, a feed mitigant proven to match the efficacy of formaldehyde. With added benefits like improved feed intake, fewer prolapses, and lower handling risks, this tool is changing the way farms manage feed hygiene and performance.
From protected acids and polyphenols to injectables and feed safety, this episode is packed with insight for producers, nutritionists, and veterinarians alike—straight from the show floor.
💡 What You’ll Learn:
- How Novus PV works under U.S. zinc oxide models and E. coli challenges
- When and where eLife can offset vitamin E costs during heat stress
- Why Cefenil is a user-friendly injectable option for respiratory support
- How FeedArmor performs as a formaldehyde alternative—plus its unexpected benefits

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
