We Can Build a Perfect Society | Curt Derby

Skylar Bytendorp welcomes back Curt Derby as Utah Daily’s first repeat guest to discuss Curt’s book, “Everybody’s Happy, Everybody Wins: How to Build a Perfect Society,” and how their first interview helped inspire his YouTube/podcasting approach to promoting it. Curt argues the U.S. is close to a “perfect society” but remains divided because power alternates between Democrats and Republicans, leaving half the country unhappy; he proposes a principles-based “Happy Party” built on “four pillars of freedom” rather than policy battles. They explore how those principles apply to issues like abortion, immigration, taxes, and military use. Curt describes tools like an Easy Tracker app/website for transparent funding and suggests change could start locally, noting winning presidents average about 23% of Americans’ votes. 00:00 Welcome Back Curt 00:50 Book Origin Story 04:00 Perfect Society Pitch 06:14 Happy Party Principles 07:31 Immigration Dilemma 09:23 Abortion Through Pillars 16:37 Voluntary Taxes Plan 21:57 Funding Public Services 22:44 Paying for Roads 23:00 Easy Tracker Explained 25:03 Do We Need the Fed 26:16 Crowdfund Local Fixes 28:58 Antiquated Systems and Defense 30:26 Voluntary Taxes in Practice 31:35 How to Start Small 34:36 Winning with 23 Percent 38:17 Speed Round Fun 40:52 Wrap Up and Where to Find More 📲 Special thanks to our guest: Curt DerbyBe sure to check them out on:Instagram: @theperfectsociety_Youtube:  ⁨@ThePerfectSociety⁩  [https://studio.youtube.com/channel/UCDmjM0P5CEHoVvH7rnvMQFg] Facebook: The Perfect SocietyTikTok: @theperfectsocietyWebsite: https://EverybodysHappy.com/🙌Big thanks to Utah Podcast Studio for filming!

Golfing Community and Radio | Jan Brownstein

Girls Go Golfing Founder Jan Brownstein on Building Utah’s Largest Women’s Golf Network Host Skylar Bytendorp interviews Jan Brownstein, founder of Girls Go Golfing, Utah’s largest women’s golfing network. Jan explains how the group grew rapidly—from about 100 women in its first year to 900 by year three, then to nearly 14,000 in the last 14 months—while remaining about 87% Utah-based and expanding nationally. She shares why she started the community after years of golfing mostly alone or with men, how the name evolved from “Girls Gone Golfing,” and how the group focuses on encouragement, inclusivity, and friendships for all skill levels and ages (from an 18-year-old to an 81-year-old). Jan discusses her role as co-host of Utah Golf Radio on ESPN 700 with Paul “Peg” Meyer, and highlights the First Tee program that brings golf to underprivileged kids. The episode covers women’s and youth golf opportunities in Utah, including unused D1/D2 girls golf scholarships and Jan’s granddaughter earning a four-year college scholarship after starting golf five years earlier. Jen outlines Girls Go Golfing activities such as monthly meetups, winter simulator golf, and an annual Masters-weekend trip to Page, Arizona, which now draws participants from across the U.S. She also shares her personal golf habits, including playing early morning rounds before work and a record 214 consecutive days of golf. Finally, Jan explains how to join via the Girls Go Golfing Facebook group, upcoming membership plans, social channels, and the new website GirlsGo.golf featuring “glam, gear, and growth,” including sponsor Uto Golf and tips from women golf pros in Utah. 00:00 Welcome to Utah Daily + Meet Jan Brownstein (Girls Go Golfing Founder)0 0:43 Why She Started Girls Go Golfing After the Pandemic 01:59 Utah Golf Radio & The First Tee: Growing the Game for Kids 03:54 From 100 to 14,000 Members: How the Community Blew Up Nationwide 04:52 Scholarships & Success Stories: Golf as a Path to College 05:48 All Ages, All Skill Levels: Building Friendships on the Course 08:20 Why Utah Is a Golf Hotspot (Courses, Youth, and Community) 10:34 Meetups, Winter Simulators, and the Annual Page, AZ Trip 12:00 Golfing 200+ Days a Year: Marathon Streaks & Early-Morning Rounds 13:53 How to Join + New Website, Membership Plans, and Social Links 15:14 Final Thoughts: Keep Golf Fun, Inclusive, and Lifelong 16:43 Wrap-Up & Thanks for Listening 📲 Special thanks to our guest: Jan Brownstein Be sure to check them out on: Instagram: Girls Go Golfing Youtube:  @Girlsgogolfing  [https://studio.youtube.com/channel/UCjgJcMl5wT85jYl2G1xOhiQ] Facebook: Girls Go Golfing 🙌Big thanks to Utah Podcast Studio for filming!
