  • Stacy Besch: Fighting Giants June 2nd
    Jun 1 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    This week Troy welcomes back Iowa Senate District 5 Republican Primary Candidate Stacy Besch. Since November, Stacy has been beating the streets contacting Republican primary voters and spreading the word about her candidacy. Tomorrow, Iowans head to the polls for the 2026 primaries and if Stacy earns the win from the voters in District 5 she will be the new State Senator as there is no Democratic challenger. See why she's been fighting giants during this campaign as dark monies flow in from different sectors of the party with less than one seventh of the campaign funds compared to her incumbent opponent and learn about the nasty lies they've been perpetuating in these last few weeks and perhaps why they are running scared she might win and shake things up! Talk about being the Sunnyside of Life for District 5!

  • Tom and Spencer for Hire
    May 11 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    This week at Sunnyside, Troy shares his opinion on two primary candidates on the national scene he thinks should win their respective races but that doesn't mean everyone agrees (as usual). When it comes to the Sunnyside of Life, it's hard to find a couple of candidates more self-deprecating and likable than Congressman Thomas Massie of Kentucky's 4th District and LA Mayoral Candidate Spencer Pratt. Both men are up for hire and there are a lot people (and money) working against their common sense and transparent approach to the respective levels of government in which they seek to serve.

    This week at Sunnyside, Troy visits with the local chiropractor: Dr. Jim Brockhohn who also happens to be an actor in over 100 films, tv shows, and commercials. Over the last 38 years, Dr. Brockhohn has been adjusting patients in our small town as well as with professional rodeo and the US Olympic Training Center. But, his real passion is in front of the camera and you have got to hear the stories he has to share in his 32 years of acting! If that weren't enough, he's also the President of the Iowa Motion Picture Association and has been for the last 12 years! This kind man has a talent for being an "actor who plays a doctor in real life."
