Sunflower Brew is a weekly podcast during which Zach Luea and his guests discuss Kansas politics and the impact proposed legislation will have on Kansas and Johnson County. Zach is a licensed attorney, program coordinator for a local university, a political news geek, and a lover of fine craft beers. We've solved the world's problems over a good pint. We just forgot to write them down. Now, we have a podcast.
