| 0:00.0 | I am so over this situation, Peter. I'm unbumble to find something real. You know, like someone |
| 0:07.5 | you can count on, someone who actually cares about what you think. I just want someone |
| 0:12.5 | who's ready for that long-term kind of love. Whether you're looking for your next boyfriend, |
| 0:18.9 | girlfriend, casual date or just someone who truly gets you, it's waiting for you unbumble. |
| 0:25.5 | Hello, hello, what's up? Welcome to Side Us of School. My name is Chris Gillibow. I'm proud, |
| 0:37.3 | honored, have the privilege to be your host, bringing you stories and features every day of real |
| 0:42.9 | people, mostly with real jobs who don't have a lot of money, taking steps to create more security |

| 1:27.5 | community connection. And a while back we featured in episode 339, this party game that was inspired |
| 1:33.8 | by cards against humanity that goes on to make six figures. Well, today is another story, |
| 1:38.5 | another six-figure party game story. This one actually comes from the Netherlands, and we can say |
| 1:43.0 | that Dark Winner Days were no match for four Dutch friends who were looking to spark meaningful |
| 1:47.0 | conversations. They did, in fact, spark meaningful conversations, and they also sparked a hugely |
