    Bumperpodcast 68 – Reintroduction!

    Allow us to reintroduce ourselves! Everyone is onboard for the inaugural Bumperpodcast at New Headquarters … All excited to tell you about the fun new stuff that is going on and …

    Then – no one shows up … except for … Well – I’m not going to give the secret away here – now am I?!

    We might even learn how to spell a little bit on today’s Bumperpodcast!


    About This Episode

    In episode 68, Natty Bumpercar welcomes listeners to the brand new Bumperpodcast headquarters after taking just one week off to move. Natty hilariously spells out his entire name and describes how moving boxes have been repurposed into castles and rocket ships throughout the new space. Despite planning to have the entire cast present for the big headquarters debut—including Mott the Sheep, Doodle Poodle, Baby Emerson, Aloysious J. Pig, Yetkin the Moose, and Cinnamon the Horse—everyone mysteriously disappears. Only Robot remains, and he reveals a mischievous secret about why everyone else is absent. This chaotic and funny episode captures the improvisational spirit of the show during a major transition.

    About This Episode

    In this episode of Bumperpodcast, host Natty Bumpercar reflects on the various ways he greets his audience, from "hello" to "hola" to "greetings." He then contemplates the linguistic difference between being "on the street" versus "in the street" before announcing his plans to get a haircut for an upcoming photo shoot. Natty explores the meaning of the word "woo," connecting it to seeking favor and winning, much like fans do at sporting events. The episode features Natty's characteristic stream-of-consciousness humor and wordplay, along with Producer's announcement about Bumperpodcast being available on Stitcher.

Hey, here's what you need to do, my friend. He said, press kit. Make a press kit. That's fine. Makes sense. Make a video press kit type explaining thing. That also makes sense and seems like great advice. Change your website. Your website isn't doing it, which is depressing because that makes me tired. Having to think about changing my website. It exhausts me. But I don't think that has anything to do with my name either. We also talked about pig. Everyone loves pig. I'm not going to lie to you. People come up to me at shows and they say, is pig here? Will we be seeing pig tonight? Some nights I say yes and they're very happy. Some nights I have to say no. Cinnamon the horse is here. Maybe he's going to. Have you met my friend Yitkin the moose? Maybe he's going to entertain you. What other meeting did I have that would have messed with my name? Going through my papers here, shuffling through. Ah, here it is. Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, bumper podcast. My name is in the process of being trademarked. What?
