    It's a short one, but this volunteer spirit with Troy is a little heavy - remember when you see someone who needs help and you gave it? Meh. Do your part and enjoy the reward - stay busy and don't bump your nose!

    This week at Sunnyside, baseball comes to an end, "Henhalla" construction is underway, Troy lost a golf tournament as expected, and there's more to this Epstein List than meets the eye. Why isn't anyone talking about the business end of this? Troy has some ideas...

    This week, after a fantastic Independence Day weekend with family, Troy reflects on what he thinks makes the story of our founding so great - that pioneer spirit of rugged individualism and in keeping with the tenets of our founders, he has some original ideas on how to truly revolutionize property taxes and county governments in Iowa....

  • "Bruhweiser" Presents: Real Men of Genius
    Jun 30 2025

    Send us a text

    This may be Troy's best work yet as he absolutely lampoons the Iowa legislative decisions to insist private school athletes be accepted into public school athletics and his Carnac take on what the future may hold for the governor's race next year. You should probably share this one....it's loaded with news flashes, parody bits, and even a brand new song (stick around to the very end to hear the whole number!)

    Happy Independence Day, America!

    He did it! Troy finally purchased steers to finish for private sales and has embarked on his journey to become a cattle baron...with 10 steers. Yes, it's not the size of the herd that counts....

    Oh, and did you notice peace is breaking out all over the world these days? Troy has some doubts about that but what does he know, he thinks the modern state of Israel isn't the same one the Bible means!

    The most frequent question Troy get's is "what podcasts do you listen to?" Well, this week, he answers that question by reviewing the podcasts he listens to regularly. You can probably pick up on a few themes that also find their way into his own format. Want to know what's in his ear? Check out this episode of The Sunnyside of Life!
