Natty Bumpercar: hello bumper podcast this is number 201 and we are in a new world a new age a new time a new everything i know you're wondering bumper car you left us two weeks ago you it was a cliffhanger you know pig was there robot was there doodle poodle was there uh the turkey was there for where doodle poodle when I don't know where robot when I don't know where anybody went all I know is I woke up in the studio mind you and you know I looked at the the calendar and it's it's circled because what we do that's how we know that today to do the bumper podcast is we circle the day today's a red marker there's different color codes I don't really know what they all stand for there's one that's blue there's one that's green there's one that's red that's today and then there's just like a black one and an orange and I've there's only one I've only seen well two oranges on the whole the year of calendar so I don't I don't today's red it's Wednesday it's a day we do the bumper podcast I just woke up I'm excited to be here I don't know where anyone else went and I don't know what's going on I know it's episode 201 which to me is mon monumental monster monstrous monument stress monument stress is what today is that's a word of the day you know and I'm excited because my initial plan was just to recap remember I went away because I was gonna find turkey we're gonna do the big Thanksgiving episode and it was like 197 but then I came in and it was up so 200 my big plan was to make you know an event for episode 200 and to schedule things and have people in and then have an all-new direction for episode 201 and moving forward. You know, like every 100 episodes, let's switch the show up a little bit, bumper car. And that didn't happen, not even a little bit. What happened, in fact, was from what I can gather, and this might not be true, I don't want to besmirch their names, but I think that Pig, Robot, and Doodle Poodle came in while I was gone to find Turkey and just started randomly doing episodes all by themselves. If I were to guess, I would probably guess that Pig was trying to make it his own show with his own name and get rid of me entirely. But that's okay, because that's what he does, and I recognize that about him and I accept it about him. But, you know, then I came in. It's episode 200, which, you know, I'm glad I came in. I'm glad I didn't miss that. But then, and I didn't realize that until the very end of the show. And then I wake up now, two weeks later, and it's episode 201, and everyone's gone, and the studio's a mess, by the way. It is something, I'm going to, something terrible happened here. I'm just saying, I mean, like, we've been off the rails before, but I feel like right now we're not even in the train. We're not even in the train. We're not even in the train car. We're not even in, like, a caboose. Or, uh, we're not even in a coal car. We're not, we're nowhere. Like, we're just, we're having trouble. So, what that means is that I need to find where everyone is. Uh, pig doodle poodle and the other one, a robot. And I need to, uh, I need to establish some things. I need to figure some things out. And, you know, uh, my goal is to do that off mic. To not have to make you guys listen to me set all this stuff up. But, you know what? I think we're all in this together. We're all a big team. You, uh, bumper podcast cateers, me, Natty Bumper Car, I think that's what makes a bumper podcast work. And what's, what makes it, the world go round, the world of the bumper podcast go round, is that we all dig in, we put on our boots, and we get, we go, we get into the muck, and we figure things out together as a team. What do you think of that? You don't, you don't wanna, why would you say no so quickly? That was so quick. Well, that's fine. Then I'll do it myself. I'll do it all by myself, and it's gonna be awesome!
