    About This Episode

    In this spooky October episode of Bumperpodcast, host Natty Bumpercar shares a chilling ghost story from his former house in Decatur, Georgia. Natty recounts the mysterious appearance of messages scratched into his bedroom door and wood paneling, including the eerie warning "stay out my room" signed by someone named Lachisha, and the cryptic phrase "Bobby Brown is in the house." The terrifying tale leaves Natty so frightened that he pleads with listeners to come over for a sleepover. This short Halloween-themed episode blends Natty's signature storytelling style with supernatural comedy and nostalgic references.

    About This Episode

    In episode 13 of Bumperpodcast, host Natty Bumpercar addresses a major crisis after last week's episode apparently crossed some serious lines. His lawyer, Mott the Sheep, has informed him that asking listeners for credit card information was completely inappropriate, and now Natty is in full damage control mode. Angry emails written in ALL CAPS have been flooding in from furious listeners who thought they were just being pals with the show. A flustered and apologetic Natty attempts to walk back his requests for credit cards and lakefront property schemes, admitting he didn't understand he was breaking the law. This hilarious episode captures Natty's innocent confusion about basic legal boundaries and his earnest attempts to make things right.

    About This Episode

    In episode 12 of Bumperpodcast, host Natty Bumpercar excitedly announces plans to share groundbreaking invention ideas with listeners, promising to get them in on the ground floor of these opportunities. The episode takes a humorous turn as Natty gets sidetracked discussing the frustrations of buying too many hot dog and hamburger buns for barbecues, pondering the impracticality of grilled cheese on hot dog buns. The conversation meanders further into discussion of investment properties near a lake and mountain where goats frolic, which apparently helps Natty think better and develop inventions. Despite promising to reveal these amazing inventions, Natty never actually describes any of them, instead focusing on requesting listeners' credit card information and praising their productive "blue sky-in" and "spitball-in" session.

    Memorable Quotes

    “What are you going to do with a hot dog bun if you're not eating a hot dog on it? You can't do anything with it, is what I'm telling you.”

    — Natty Bumpercar

    “There's goats who live on the mountain. They like to watch the goats frolic. They'll start at the bottom of the mountain. And then they'll frolic up the mountain.”

    — Natty Bumpercar

    “I mean, it can only get better from here, right?”

    About This Episode

    In this hilarious episode of Bumperpodcast, host Natty Bumpercar is completely exhausted from life with his new "roommate" – his code word for his new baby. Natty struggles through the episode, rambling about accidentally having a metronome on during recording and trying to stay coherent despite severe sleep deprivation. He mentions he had planned to talk about world-changing inventions, but his bone-deep exhaustion derails those plans. Between references to dust having dust and his bone marrow being tired, Natty delivers a relatable and funny take on new parenthood while trying to maintain his hosting duties.

    Memorable Quotes

    “My bone marrow was tired, the crust on my eyes has crust, the dust on my dust has dust. I don't know what that even means, I just know I'm so sleepy all the time.”

    — Natty Bumpercar

    “I have a code word for my baby, it's that he's my roommate and I didn't know if I was being explicit enough.”
