| 0:00.0 | Hey, hey, what's up everybody? Welcome to Side Usall School. Today is October 1st, episode |
| 0:10.5 | 1370, 1 370, 1 370, when I say October 1st, of course, that's the date it's coming out. |
| 0:18.3 | You could be listening later, but as the calendar turns, we are now in the final few months |
| 0:24.1 | of the year. And what a year it's been, of course. I don't need to tell you what 2020 is like. |
| 0:28.5 | Your 2020 may have been different than mine, but I'm pretty sure you're going to remember it. |
| 0:32.0 | Right? It's a memorable year, for better or for worse or for both, perhaps. Anyway, today is |
| 0:37.8 | Throbac Thursday. Today's segment is all about looking back at someone whose story has evolved |
| 0:43.8 | considerably since we first featured them. Now, last week we featured a fan of old school board games. |
| 0:50.5 | This guy who's had a tremendous success with multiple six-figure crowdfunding campaigns, |

| 1:33.6 | been able to build a pretty significant business. It's actually full-time for her and her husband now, |
| 1:38.8 | all designed to meet this need of makers' creatives, other people selling art and items like that |
| 1:43.6 | on Etsy and other sites. So anyway, let's not preempt your story. What's happened since then? |
| 1:48.4 | The original episode was 6-11, 6-1-1 in case you want to go back and listen to it, but we have |
| 1:53.1 | an update from her. So let's hear directly from Janet and I'll come back at the end to wrap us up. |
