About This Episode

In this hilarious episode of Bumperpodcast, Natty Bumpercar discovers he's in serious financial trouble. What starts as a casual conversation with Monster quickly escalates when Rufus T. Rufus arrives to settle a debt—by making Natty pay it. Things spiral out of control as Reginald reveals contractual obligations, Doodle Poodle mentions unpaid commissions, and even Producer refuses to work until he's paid. By the end, Natty realizes he owes money to practically everyone in the studio. The episode features witty wordplay about character names and a running gag about Reginald being a "classically trained actor" who's actually a pipe fitter.

Doodle Poodle: really I had no idea

Natty Bumpercar: so you guys went to the same school together that's that's that's are you a classically trained actor the way he is I can't believe we're doing this really he's not even a classically trained actor you guys went to trade school you're you're you're a pipe fitter I had no I this is my mind is blown I hired him uh or you like see whatever a couple episodes ago to play future me and because he said he was a classically trained actor and now I find out that that he's not and the trades obviously are a great way to go to school and great thing to learn and uh you know to have a future but he's it could completely lie to me he pulled the wool over my eyes ears he pulled the wool over my head how does that work he pulled the wool over your eyes and ears

Doodle Poodle: well actually actually I'm not it's me and sometimes people say that I I look like a little bit like a uh a lamb who has wool because I have a poodle and I have curly hair

Natty Bumpercar: that's actually a good point yeah yeah well of course and I think people understand that but yeah you're right doodle poodle you do look a little bit like a lamb because of the curly hair but you know your name is doodle poodle and so it kind of throws off the whole game like people know that you're a poodle who likes to do

Doodle Poodle: it's very little people know that you're a pig because your name is right so um uh so doodle

Natty Bumpercar: poodle I think what he was saying is you actually have what you are a poodle and what you like to do to doodle in your name uh his name is Aloysius J Pig so I mean yeah there is that defining he's a pig in his name but Aloysius isn't really uh yeah exactly everyone so my name is uh Rufus T Rufus and that would be like if my name was uh expert something like that you understand so doodle poodle you are a doodle who poodles and uh excuse me I gotta flip that on its side you are a poodle who doodles uh Aloysius you are of course the star of the show the big man of the hour loving it up loving the power yeah dude wait I got confused sorry I messed my rhyme that's okay no I thought you were really you were you sound like you're about to really uh bust out some jams as the kids are saying these days hey Rufus nice to see you what have you been up to well as a point of contention as a point of bonafide uh monster over here uh I owe him uh of some money and I decided to stop on by normally I would stop on by the other way by not stopping on by but today I decided to uh to rectify to uh reconfigure to you know to do hard jobs uh uh obloviate a bit uh on the facts in the matter at hand ipso facto and and and and pay the man back you're actually gonna pay him back you've never paid me back you've owed me money for like uh decades like millennia like a long time mighty long time and i don't feel like i've ever even seen a penny from you like you you make we've been out to dinner where you had the opportunity just to pick up my tab to pay me back and you still you wouldn't even do that you you you you snuck out the back and left me with a bill which then made you owe me more money all right okay okay okay let's all just calm down a little bit here uh whoo so holy cow um i lost my train of thought that growl was very intense uh uh uh monster um but i'm glad rufus that you came by to to settle up your debt i think that's a great thing for you to do it's it's like an all-new rufus paying off debts so um speaking of paying off uh debts natty uh you actually uh here's my bill for services rendered and uh if you could just pay me in cash right now that what i'm gonna do is just slide those stacks over the monster and uh you're gonna be clear then i'm gonna be clear and then we're all gonna be clear understand okay now i now i kind of see what's happening wait okay so i i don't i owe you money i don't think i owe you what service is rendered what are we talking about well i looked over the patreon uh patreon.com natty bumper car and there was some legal issues i had to attend to uh and then there was the contract of uh rosenkrantz or guildenstern whatever his name was wait you just made me forget his name when you did that you're rufus rosen how did you just did you just messed up my brain now i can't remember his name hello everyone it's me reginald it's very happy to see everyone here and monsters what it's i can't believe i haven't seen you since university meow meow meow well yes indubitably indeed i i understand that yes there is some uh money some funds that are owed to me and i'd greatly appreciate if i could get my hands on wait so who owes you money reginald well see now natty that's what i came to discuss with you so according to these contracts which have your uh uh uh signature on the bottom uh he he was due to be paid a significant amount of money some funds you understand so wait so i owe him money well yeah so it's it's a little confusing but actually anytime the episode is played he's supposed to get a cut you understand so you got his flat fee and then every time an episode is played he gets some uh a little bit of money and uh i didn't want to you know it's good news but the the podcast is is doing well and it's charting around the world around the planet people are listening to it's australia how you doing i got south korea i think it was how you're doing all right so we're doing wonderfully uh however the bad side the downside is the more plays the more pays you know let me get this straight i've been on this show for 390 to 91 episodes i never got any money and all of a sudden this dude who uh came in and and tricked us he's getting money for every time somebody listens it doesn't make any sense rufus you're my lawyer and you're taking care of this
