    Natty Bumpercar: hey everybody it's me natty bumper car and I am in a bit of a mood today I guess a lot of there's a lot of things happening right there's a lot of stuff going on in the world this could be i'm super excited about that and i'm giving a speech at the graduation and when i gave i gave a little talk at emerson's graduation a few years ago and and i cried like i've never cried before in my life in front of a an auditorium full of people i was on the microphone and i was hyperventilating and uh i was it was it was quite the scene and and now for ollie's this is my last little kid and this is i've been at this this pre-k this daycare for eight years and and and i'm giving a little talk i've got it all nice and written out i have to i still have to print it and i i like to go what i do is i type it and then i print it and then i go through and i kind of mark it up and then i retype it with those uh the markup edits and um and then that's my final copy and uh so i got a tiny bit of work to do and um today i went in and uh and they've started like they took the uh by the hooks where you hang the bags every morning uh they took down the little name plates they took down a little the little stickers and uh so it's just wild wild west there's bags everywhere it's it's crazy um and it's it's it's it's an interesting hard thing uh where you know people like oh pre-k graduation why are we even celebrating this why does everybody get a trophy and it's just it's like stop just stop it like we don't have we're better than you're better than that i would assume like people get trophies for participating that's cool that's awesome you guess what you did something you participated and now you get to feel good about it we don't have to be like uh you know A seven-year-old's like, hey, you didn't win the tournament, so you don't get a trophy. What's the point of that? Oh, yeah, okay, I guess you could say, oh, well, it's going to make them stronger people. It's going to make them strive to do better next time. They're kids. Just let them have fun and let them get their trophy and let them go home feeling great. Right? Because there's going to be a lot of points in their life when they don't feel great. So let's let them feel great as much as they can whenever they can is my way of thinking. And so a pre-K graduation, you know, the kids don't really know what's going on, but they know that it's exciting. And they know the spotlight is on them. They know that it's their special day, that they're turning a chapter in their lives, in the little book of their lives. They're very short lives at this point. And but this is like a momentous thing where from when they're babies, they're with these people. And then after this day, they're going to go off to new schools and they're not all going to be together. And the ramifications, they don't know about all that stuff. They don't care about that. Like, oh, I might I might not see you, you know, whatever. But they they know, like, hey, this is a big deal. Like we did it. And in it, what did we do? We turned five and we became the legal age to go to kindergarten. But that was good for you. You got to a point where now you're going to move on to the next step. And that's great. And so hurray for kids, hurray for for them. And so we're going through all this stuff with with Ali. You know, there's field trips. There's like I think there were three field trips, which is a lot of field trips. There's his graduation. And then Emerson, you know, he's getting bigger, too. Like I took a picture of today. It's his last day of school and he's at the top of the stairs. And he's such a big guy. And I'm just like, who who are you people in my house, in my life? You're like my little pals, my little buddies. Like, I can go see movies with Emerson. I can go see The Incredibles, whatever. I can I can hang out. Neither of us can have popcorn because I've got my Invisalign and he's got his orthodontist. Sure. So, you know. We're going through that at the same time, too. It's nice. And then you look around at the rest of the world. Right. And what's going on? And I'm not going to get into things because that's not what this show is. And I don't know if there's kids listening. Hey, kids, are you out there? Are you listening? You're awesome. Good for you. I had to go back for a second. Today was Emerson's last day of school and we were late because I was putting together. I made these pictures. For in frames for his teachers. We were wrapping them. So we got there a couple of minutes late, but he was he was desperate to run in the school. He wanted to get in the school. He wanted to be there for morning care so that he could hang out with his friends for the last day of the school year. But we were late, which he was kind of upset about. You wanted to run in and I had to grab him before he ran in. And I got this right into his little face and I said, I need you to look at me. And he was like, OK, and he doesn't like he gets rude. He's really embarrassed with this kind of stuff because we're out in public. But I looked at him, I was holding his little face and I said, buddy, I want you to know how proud we are of you, that you you made it through this year and you did such an amazing job. You're such a wonderful kid and everyone loves you and everyone's so, so amazed at how well you're doing and and we're all excited for everything that you're going to do. Now, get in there and have a great day. Have a great day. And his little eyes like blinked, like blink, blink, blink. And he said, OK, dad. And he ran in. And I don't think people tell kids this type of stuff often enough. Like you go through your day to day. You're you got to. Oh, I got to go get gas. Oh, then I got to go return this box and then I got to go get this other box. And then, you know, I got to take this thing out of this box. I got to put this thing together. Oh, then I got to do this. There's just so much. There's so much stuff like minutiae in life, especially these days from when you wake up until when you go to bed. You can even pretend that like, oh, I got to put up, you know, five tweets today and I got to make sure that my social media metrics are good, whatever that is. Or, you know, you're staring at your phone and that you feel like you're almost accomplishing something because you're staring at your phone. On top of all, like, oh, I've actually got to go to the grocery store. I've got to make this food. I've got whatever. I've got to feed the dog. I've got. But there's so much minutiae that you can mask the rest of your life with that. I think it's important to people used to say, hey, stop and smell the roses. Yes, stop to stop and, you know, grab people that are important to you and tell them that they're important to you and tell them why they're important to you and say something to make them feel better. I am. On a daily basis, an embarrassment to my family because I like to talk to people. I talk to people in line at checkout. I talk to people at the restaurant, people I don't know, strangers. And I try to say nice things to them. Right. Just to make this random nice thing to say to people. Right. Because what you'll see is when you say nice things to people, if you do nice things for people. A lot of times they'll recognize it. They'll internalize it and they feel better. And then that's great. Sometimes they don't acknowledge it. They just kind of go about their life because they're in their own headspace. And that's fine, too, because it's not it's not about you're not doing the thing, the nice thing to get recognition for it. You're doing the nice thing because when you do nice things, it'll make you feel better, too. And. I don't want to. I'm not going to get into again because there's I think there's there's probably kids listening, but there's scary, bad things happening in the world around us. And when I look at my kids and I look at the privilege that they have and how lucky they are with their lives and where they are right now. And then I think about where other people are in the world. And it's it's heartbreaking and it's it's it's soul wrenching and it's just I don't know what to do. And I don't I don't feel sometimes I don't feel good about feeling good because there's these other people that are going through really bad stuff. And this is a comedy podcast. Right. Yeah. Pigs usually here. Rufus T. Rufus. Robot. Everybody. But I we had an episode a while ago about when I was sad. It was for different stuff. It was for different reasons. But I think it's important to realize that there's other people in different positions in life and it's all your perspective and how you see them. But you got to understand that every single person is a person and they deserve rights. They deserve respect. They deserve compassion and love. And, you know, if their political bent doesn't rhyme with yours or their religious affiliation or whatever their views are. They're still people. And. I think for the world to continue to work. We have to help people. And it's like I'm I'm I'm kind of I'm stammering. I'm laboring because I don't know the answers. I don't know how to make this better, but I just know that I don't feel good about what's happening in the world right now. And I don't know how you could feel good about what's happening in the world right now. And I made a comment the other day on some post and someone's like, oh, Natty Bumpergar is getting political. And it's like all I can do these days not to climb to the highest mountain and just scream like anguish scream because I don't understand how we are, where we are right now, how we got to this place.

I'm so scared. Ooh. Ew, fox pee. Oh, stop it, Emerson. That's rude. Let's go. That's doggy potty talk. All right. Well, so that was our Halloween. We went trick-or-treating. We went to two parties. We did two parades. We went out walking for about an hour and a half, and then we came home, and no one had come to our house except for a squirrel who ate our pumpkin. The end. And we all got stomach aches, and the next day, it was very rough to go to school. Some people didn't want to go to school, and some people had a very rough day at school because we have a difficult time. If we have a big night the next day, watch out, right?

    Unknown: Yeah.

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah. That's what happened to you. Ooh.

    Unknown: There's a ghost.

    Natty Bumpercar: Oh, my goodness. Oh, and there was a cool house that had a Jaws theme, and they had all these cool cut-out wooden things, and we've decided that next year, we're going to try to do some sort of cool yard theme, right? Oh, bless you. Do you know what it's going to be?

    Unknown: I think it's going to be Mermaid. It's Halloween.

    Natty Bumpercar: I think it was. Yeah, you're right. It was the Muppets Save Halloween. Good job.

    Unknown: I think it was Elmo Saving Cookie Monster because evil. Grover was pushing him off a cliff, and then Elmo saved him, and he pushed Monster Grover off the cliff, and that's the end.

    Natty Bumpercar: It sounds like we have to build a cliff.

    Unknown: Oh, a real live one?

    Natty Bumpercar: A real live cliff is what we have to build, yes.

    Unknown: How hard.

    Natty Bumpercar: How hard. What? Both of your English language skills have deteriorated. How deep. There you go. How deep. Super deep. Deep. It was super duper deep.

    Unknown: How long was that?

    Natty Bumpercar: Super duper. That's super duper deep. I hit that bass. Boom, bing, boom, bing, boom. That was not very good. I was excited about the song, but then I had the accordion in my head in the wrong state. All right. Can everybody say one, two, three, goodbye? One, two, three.

    Unknown: Goodbye.

    Natty Bumpercar: Emerson, you didn't do it. We're supposed to do it as a team. We're going to say one, two, three. Goodbye. And then it was going to. Goodbye.

    Unknown: Goodbye.

    About This Episode

    In this episode, Natty Bumpercar returns after a two-week hiatus caused by a disastrous OS beta upgrade that broke his recording equipment. He shares stories from his family vacation to Cape Cod, including getting moved to the less convenient cabin number seven with creepy carpeting, rescuing a crab named Mr. Crabs from seagulls, and crying during a screening of Shaun the Sheep. Natty also vents about the challenges of tile flooring, the chaos of kids with scooters, and his frustrations with contractors after three fell through on his home bathroom renovation project. This candid, rambling solo episode showcases Natty's signature storytelling style as he catches listeners up on his life.

    Memorable Quotes

    “If you have a beach cabin don't carpet it, it's creepy. Just make it hardwood. I don't want your tile, your cold cold tile. It feels like it's sucking the soul out of my body.”

    — Natty Bumpercar

    “So if you're upstairs stealing my stuff keep it down because I'm recording a podcast unless you want to be interviewed.”

    — Natty Bumpercar

    “We watched Shaun the Sheep and I cried. You're sitting next to your kids and there's a song about summer and it's summer and oh man what are you doing.”

second i think i've got this uh just need to oh no it's still not hmm okay let me just i'm gonna call you back in a couple of minutes and uh no it never worked so it's fine we rescheduled some stuff actually reached out to the company and it's a specific part of the whole uh of the ordeal uh that records the interviews for pig and everyone seems to like these pig interviews and i certainly enjoy listening to them so um i was i was like well what do i do so i spent like the week trying to figure out everything see if there was new software different software anything that i needed to get or do and there was not company reached back out to me and they said oh looks like you've downloaded the beta and i was like ah you yeah i did how'd you know that so um you know they fixed they made a patch which is very nice of them a little patch uh to fix the beta and now and now it's back up and running so uh that's exciting but what that means now is it's been two uh two weeks since uh an interview uh since a podcast and so i was like i don't even i'm jumping on i gotta talk to my peeps i was on vacation they don't know nothing about nothing right i went to cape cod with the babies and the family and we had a lot of fun it was a lot more fun this year it was a lot of uh well here's a weird thing i'm gonna go first i swear to god the dog is walking around upstairs it sounds like he's uh a gang of people destroying my house there's only a dog here but the amount of noise that i'm hearing above me makes me think i should probably call the police but i'm not because i'm recording and i don't want to miss out on another week so if you're upstairs stealing my stuff keep it down because i'm recording a podcast unless you want to be interviewed i'm not going to be interviewing you interviewed because i can't enter i couldn't interview that'd be great so you break into houses how tell me how you got into that oh really uh-huh and when you when you saw my house what made you think there would be anything of value here oh you're looking at my computer i see interesting should i should mention to you before you're trying to take it i see but i should mention it's on the beta so maybe you don't want to take it that's right i know i don't know why i downloaded it's my only computer ah thanks good interview um so we went to cape cod and the way it works is my my wife's aunts and uncle aunt and uncle have been going there for no joke like 45 years or something amazing like that and then they have their kids and uh so how does it work there's there's there's ocean and there's a hill and there's one cabin two cabin three cabin and then they are number four and they have a nice deck and they can see everything and they have this nice cabin within cabin five six seven are their kids who bring their significant others and their kids we're talking about a lot of people here is what i'm saying and then for the last seven years this was our eighth year for the last seven years we were cabin number six boom boom right there right right at the top of the hill you can go out on there's a little deck in front so you can sit and you can watch the kids playing and we were very excited this year because it was gonna be the first year where we knew that we could just hang out and we could we could see everything that was going on and our kids wouldn't really need us to uh keep them alive as much but some double booking going on i'm assuming the soft wear for the booking engine was in beta i'm just gonna keep saying beta because it makes me happy uh and and uh our cabin got booked our cabin got booked we've been there the last seven years there was a contract but anyway we got moved to cabin number seven which i know you're thinking that's not such a big deal but it's it it was because uh you're that we're cut off by about you know whatever it is 30 yards or whatever no not 30 yards 30 yards 30 yards 30 yards 30 yards that's 90 feet i don't know we'll say 50 say 50 50 60 feet from the other cabins which means you can't get to the kids when they fall off their scooters or when they ram their scooters into other children or when they pick their scooters up and use them as weapons what i'm saying is scooters are really the issue here scooters are the problem and uh to get to them we actually the steps to get off of our little uh cabin you had to go back to the cabin and we had to go back to the cabin and we had to go back to the cabin backwards to get to the steps to then come back the other way which added another 30 or 40 feet which meant it took you a solid if you were hustling it took you about 45 seconds to get down to the kids screaming the whole way what are you doing why would you do that you stop that leave your him alone leave her alone get away from each other i don't know but so the new cabin was weird it was also carpeted which ladies and gentlemen if you have a beach cabin don't carpet it it's creepy all right just letting you know i'm just right up front letting you know i don't know what kind of people listen to this show but if you have a cabin just make it hardwood all right make it tile don't make it tile let's not make it tile tiles cold let's make it wood all right make it nice old wood let's seal it and let's just keep it real i don't want your tile your cold cold tile when i'm walking on tile with my bare feet it feels like it's sucking the soul out of my body it feels like the tile is is a vacuum and every step i take it's just sucking it's just taking the life out of me it's like a crypt i don't want to walk on tile just stop it with a tile and even if there's tile in your bathroom i'm gonna need you to put a little rug in there a little throw rug whatever it's called one of those really furry little rugs all right because i want as little time stepping on tile as i can possibly get anyway it was a great vacation it was nice it was one of those vacations where you're there for a long time and i mean we're there for a week i guess but it feel it felt like longer like some of the times we've been there it's been like you blink your eye and you're like that was so fast that vacation is already over but this one it actually it felt like an extended play it was a remix it was great um and we go i'll one day i'll get the kids in here and they can tell you all about it but if i ask the kids about it because it was already two weeks ago they'll be like what's going on and i'll be like oh my god i'm what'd you do on vacation they'll be like i didn't go on vacation you're like yeah you did you went to cape cod and be like i don't know what did you do i don't know we watched it was one day it was a little bit uh gonna be a little bit rainy so there's a movie theater and they show kids movies and at i think it was like something insane like 8 30 in the morning it might have been 9 30 i don't know it was early we were at a movie theater and we watched sean the sheep oh and i cried it's a movie makes me cry it's sean the sheep it's sean the sheep you should watch that movie it's a great movie oh now i'm crying again it's like because you're sitting next to your kids and there's a song about summer and it's summer and oh man what are you doing oh we also found crabs giant crabs just hanging out on the beach we saved a crab from some seagulls put it in a bucket put it when there's some sand and some water and some seaweed and stuff and we named them crabby or mr crabs i don't know it switched and then we took them to a different place we took them to a place called red river we set them free in the in the beach grass and he walked away and then two days later we were back at red river and there was a giant crab almost twice the size of crabby and i was like look crabby grew my kids were like he must have eaten a good meal and i was like what you guys are so smart and now we're back in school there's been a lot going on is what i'm saying next week i'm excited

    Full Transcript

    Natty Bumpercar: Help someone out. If you see somebody who needs something, who's having a tough time, who's having a rough day, help them out. If you see someone trying to cross the street, who's carrying something, whose baby carriage is going this way or that, say, Hey buddy, you need some help? Because we live in a society. A society that doesn't work if we don't help each other out. I'm not saying you have to be best friends with a person. I'm not saying you have to call them and check in on them later. But I am saying you should help. What day is it? I don't even know what day it is. I'm so confused right now. I woke up and it's still dark outside and it was dark last night when I went to bed. The kids get up so early and I… Well, I have a thing to say. Hello there. Hey, Rufus. I say, I say hello to you, Bubba Cobb. I've been getting a lot of reports, a lot of news feeds, a lot of… Transcribations from people saying that they're upset that none of your character friends are coming on the show these days. They say, who's this highfalutin Bubba Cobb who comes on out here with his pig interviews and his product reviews and his telephone calls. And he does not invite his friends who made the show what it is onto that very… Then I said… Oh, shit. Okay, well, that's valid. And I apologize. I've been so excited with the new format that I haven't been having as many people onto the show with me. I mean, we've had the interviews and the interviews have been awesome. Actually, I was thinking about the interviews the other day where I want to make a page where it kind of highlights who was on the show so far. We had, who was it, Adam Lucidi. We had Sock Cop. We had John Trumbull. Last week we had Darren Patterson. This week we have someone. Finally, we have a woman, which makes me happy because it felt weird. But I want to have, like, all these people highlighted because it seems like the appropriate thing to do so that they get the most play out of the shows as they can. Now, you mentioned, I understood, I heard that you have a pig and pig illusion of you and a woman today. And I assume that the only reason you have not had one in your first four shows is because… None of, none of, none of them agreed. No one agreed to be on the show. Yeah. The, the, the, the, the, the fellas that were on were a little bit more desperate for airtime. No, no, no, no, no, no. Is that what I'm trying to understand? No, no, no, no, no, no. Oh. No, no, no, no, no, no. Well, I see. No, no, no, no, no. Well, I see. You don't see anything. Listen, this is why you're not invited on the show. You say weird things and you get me in trouble. It's just how it worked out with the schedule, okay? Jeez, I'm trying to… I have… I have, like, a huge list of people that I want to get on the show, but, uh, to interview with Pig, because I feel like he's having a great time with it, and people seem to enjoy themselves. Like, as I… I help him produce those segments, so I go on and I talk to people beforehand, and I'm kind of like, hey, you know, Pig's getting ready, here's what's gonna happen, uh, just be ready for this, you know, he's maybe in this kind of a mood today, or… What does that even mean? I'm in this kind of a mood? I'm a… What are you talking about? Some days I wake up, I'm hungrier than other days. Some days I wake up, I'm sleepier than other days, but I don't… Oh, hey, watch out for the Pig. Like, I'm that intimidating? Like, I'm gonna be like, oh, I'm gonna scream at people, guests on my show? Bro, bro, bro, bro, get it together, okay, Bumps? All right? Please, for the love of Pete. Wait, who is this… Now, who is this Pete? Now, is he gonna be on the show as well? Is he signed some sort of an NDA? Some sort of a contract with the… Of a podcast where he's gonna be on the Pig interviews, or does he have his own segment? There's no Pete, no, and there's nobody getting their own segment, okay? Pig has his own segment, and… I was thinking we could have a lawyer segment where I distribute law advice to the people, to the land. I could help some people out. Isn't this whole episode about helping people out? Well, how about we'll call it the Rufus T. Rufus. Rufus, fix your life segment or something like that. That sounds like a great idea. I actually got a few things that I wanted to run by you, okay? Can I do that? Stop, stop, stop. Both of you stop, okay? I don't want… There's no more segments. There's nothing. But we are… What we're gonna do right now, I appreciate you both stopping by, and I appreciate it for putting up air quotes, because I don't really appreciate it because I had a nice flow going, and I had a fun time with my past episodes, and now you're here, and you're making me crazy. But what we're gonna do now is we're gonna have a great interview with some… Someone who's hilarious and fun, and Pig, you did a great job. I'm gonna keep saying it, because you're doing a great job. Ladies and gentlemen, here's this week's Pig Interview! Alright, hey everybody, it's me, Aloysius J. Pig, and I'm here for my next interview. I don't know who it is. Bumpercar lined it up. He says he's a friend of his. You know, I like to talk to his friends, so that then I can make them not like him quite as much, because really… Bumpercar, seriously. Anyway, let's see who it is. I know she's a comedian. I know she's from the Jersey, but let's see who she is. Evidently, she's got a dog in her house. Hey, who is this, anyways?

    Unknown: Hi, Pig, it's Donna.

    Natty Bumpercar: I ain't Donna.

    Unknown: Yeah, Donna V. Sells.

    Natty Bumpercar: Oh, Vi Sells. Yeah, I know.

    Unknown: Yeah, V. Sells.

    Natty Bumpercar: No, let's see, I'm looking. He handed me a piece of paper with your name. It clearly says V. Sells.

    Unknown: No, it's Pig, it's Donna V. Sells.

    Natty Bumpercar: My name's Aloysius, did you know that?

    Unknown: I didn't know that. We've never been formally introduced.

    Natty Bumpercar: That's my proper name. That's what it says on my christening slip. That's awesome. The slip, did you get a slip? Were you christened?

    Unknown: I was christened.

    Natty Bumpercar: And when they did it, did they say, did they give you a slip of paper and it said, this is to confirm that Donna… Ugh, whatever your last name is.

    Unknown: V. Sells.

    Natty Bumpercar: Oh, like the Seychelles.

    Unknown: Yes, that's exactly right. It's like, yes, Donna V. Sells, like they sell seashells at the V. Sells.

    Natty Bumpercar: I'm not familiar with what that is exactly. Are you some sort of Dr. Seuss or something? Is that what that is?

    Unknown: Sometime.

    Natty Bumpercar: Okay, don't be coy with me, V. Sells.

    Unknown: I love coy. They're such big fish, right?

    Natty Bumpercar: They creep me out, bro. I was at a place last week, a Japanese place, Hibachi, and they had like a fountain. It was a tiny fountain, and Bumper Guy's kid was just like, look at this, there's fish in it. I mean, it was the tiniest thing, and the fish couldn't even turn around. I felt so bad for him. Oh, no. Yes, so we went to the car, we got a hammer, and we liberated him, and we ran out. Yes. That's awesome. I don't know where the fish were. When we left, they were flopping on the floor. I assume that they got an Uber and got to… They got to the water, like big water, but I don't know what happened to them, if I'm going to be honest.

    Unknown: Wow. They might have taken a Lyft.

    Natty Bumpercar: You think that fish are more Lyft-friendly, or I don't know how that works.

    Unknown: I think fish might go in a Lyft instead of the Uber.

    Natty Bumpercar: How do you get yourself around town when you're driving? Like, do you walk? Do you bicycle? Do you paraglide?

    Unknown: I actually just got myself a Volkswagen Bug. It's really cute.

    Natty Bumpercar: A Beetle Bug?

    Unknown: I did. I did. I'm so excited.

    Natty Bumpercar: Is it like an old one or a new one?

    Unknown: It's newer, but it's certified pre-owned.

    Natty Bumpercar: Oh, well, that means they tacked on a couple grand is what they did for that.

    Unknown: No, it means that somebody else didn't want it, and I was like, that's not nice. I like bugs. I rescue them all the time. I don't kill them. So I rescued this one from the car lot.

    Natty Bumpercar: Oh, but, Boppa Guy, you got a weird one on the phone this time.

    Unknown: You see what you did to me? Okay. He knows that. He knows that.

    Natty Bumpercar: He ain't. He knows nothing. When he talks to you in public, do his eyes just glass over? Because whenever I'm talking to him, there's not much happening back there. He's a cute guy, but there's nothing going on.

    Unknown: But do you hear me? Everybody's eyes glass over. No.

    Natty Bumpercar: I'm used to it. Well, you have a lot of spunk, a lot of energy. So tell me, so you know Bumps from the jokes? Is that what it is?

    Unknown: Yeah, we totally do comedy together. He's hilarious.

    Natty Bumpercar: No, come on. I don't know why everyone who comes on here has to say nice things about him. Because, listen, you ain't going to get over on me, all right? I live with him. He's terrible. He's so nice. Oh, no. Okay. Now it's gotten weird. Because this is, I got to, when we have people on the show, Bop, you got to tell them right up front. Don't say nice things because it makes me uncomfortable. It makes me look like a mean guy. I don't want to look like a mean guy to you, Donna, you know?

    Unknown: I don't think that's possible. Okay.

    Natty Bumpercar: Well, that's fine.

    Unknown: He tries to look all tough in his lumberjack shirts and stuff, but he ain't fooling anybody. He's got Mickey Mouse under there.

    Natty Bumpercar: You know what he shops? He shops at Plaid Zara. It's literally, all he's got is plaid. He shops at, he goes to the place where they make tablecloths. Tablecloths. Yeah, okay. Wow. We just both got a concussion and went into the same joke.

    Unknown: I know. Pinch, poke you, owe me a Coke.

    Natty Bumpercar: Oh, did you just jinx me?

    Unknown: Yeah, I jinxed you. How do I?

    Natty Bumpercar: I'm not supposed to talk? You can't. Well. What do I do? I'm interviewing. I can't even talk. This is the first time this has happened. Can you un-jinx me?

    Unknown: Okay, you're un-jinxed. Circle, circle, dot, dot. I un-jinxed you on the spot.

    Natty Bumpercar: That ain't how it works. You just gave me a Cody shot.

    Unknown: I did. I did.

    Natty Bumpercar: I mean, come on. You don't know how to un-jinx? I mean, I'm breaking all kinds of rules. I don't.

    Unknown: I don't.

    Natty Bumpercar: All you gotta do is say my name, bro. You just gotta say my name.

    Unknown: Oh, Aloysius?

    Natty Bumpercar: Ah, thank you.

    Unknown: Oh, yay.

    Natty Bumpercar: Papakaza, what are you pacing? You gotta be freaking out. No, it's not. No, I kept talking. You heard me keep talking. He doesn't know what's going on. He can't hear what's going on. Yeah. That's so funny. Circle, circle, dot, dot, dot. Now you got your Cody shot. That's a Cody shot. Yeah.

    Unknown: I know. Well, it's back to school. I want to make sure you got your shots up to date.

    Natty Bumpercar: Yes.

    Unknown: You don't want to get the swine flu.

    Natty Bumpercar: Look, okay. Wow, you came for paid. Holy cow. Yay. No. I'm very, I'm, I'm very well kept. Thank you so much. I do, I do know, I'm not, I do know somebody. I was in a conversation the other day and they're one of those anti-vax people.

    Unknown: Oh.

    Natty Bumpercar: Creeps me out, bro. Because like, as the person's talking to me, I'm shaking my head, nodding because I don't want them to attack me. And, um, every word, I'm just taking another step back, another step back, another, I don't want them to breathe on me.

    Unknown: Please. Don't get a little spittle on you because it could be a contagion.

    Natty Bumpercar: Keep, keep the giant. You got to have the grams to yourself, bro. I don't got no interest. You know, I got these babies up here. They, uh, they're Petri dishes. I know. Yeah. You got, you got kids?

    Unknown: I'm moving my kids to college because of that.

    Natty Bumpercar: Have collagen? How old are they?

    Unknown: No, they're going to college, pig.

    Natty Bumpercar: They eat collards? I love collard greens. Oh my God. I do too. Wait, do you really?

    Unknown: Yes, I do. But unfortunately, I don't eat meat because I'm a, um, pescatarian.

    Natty Bumpercar: Why is it? There's nothing unfortunate about that. You eat pescatarian? I mean, I should have given you those fish I freed. Oh, I'm sorry.

    Unknown: I know. I hope they weren't going to be cooked because you were at Hibachi.

    Natty Bumpercar: No, they were in, like, the thing, the water thing. The pond. Yeah. Do they do that? Can you go and point? I want that one. They're like, his name is Mori.

    Unknown: If they were liberated and they were, like, walking with their little fish, like, feet, their tail. Imagine if they wiggled over. God forbid.

    Natty Bumpercar: Real quick, fish, they don't walk. That's a baseline prime everything. They swim.

    Unknown: They do in Dr. Seuss.

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah, okay. That's true. I was reading a book tonight to one of the kids, and it was a Lego book, and it had a fish in it. Yeah. So the whole book is there's a parasailor and a windsurfer, sorry.

    Unknown: A parasailor? A parasailor is, like, two of them? No, just one sailor.

    Natty Bumpercar: Uno sailor. No, a Spanish sailor. You're from New Jersey, and you're going to poke fun at me? Your accent is thicker than pea soup, okay?

    Unknown: Poke the pig.

    Natty Bumpercar: No, it's not the name of this segment, for the record. For the record, ain't the name of this segment. So wait, hold on. I've got to finish. So he was a windsurfer, and he was too close to the rocks, and so they had to save him, right? That was the whole story. And the kid was freaked out because the last page, there's a little fish, and he's by the rocks. And he's like, what's going to happen to the fish? And I was like, bro, he's a fish, all right? He's cool. He's in the ocean. He's okay. And he's like, who's that? Who's that, your friend?

    Unknown: That's my dog, Yogi. He doesn't understand that I'm on a very important interview with Aloysius. I'm sorry.

    Natty Bumpercar: You probably ain't going to get the job, I'm just telling you, because dogs freak me out. But so I had to tell him. I was like, bro, fish can swim. So now you're throwing fish can walk into the whole equation. And I feel like it's going to confuse things.

    Unknown: Okay. Well, I'll keep my fish on a leash, and you can keep yours in a bucket of water.

    Natty Bumpercar: It don't make no sense. Don't even make – we record these interviews late, so people will be chilling. What are you doing right now?

    Unknown: Nothing. This is just me. I just worked an 11-hour workday, and this is what I was looking forward to at the end of my night.

    Natty Bumpercar: 11 hours?

    Unknown: Yeah.

    Natty Bumpercar: Can I tell you what I did today?

    Unknown: Yeah.

    Natty Bumpercar: I woke up. I got out of bed. I had some breakfast. I went back to bed because I had to – the food had to – whatever it does. Digest? That's the word. I was thinking migrate, but that's not – the food did not migrate. Okay. It could have. It could have done a little migration. And then I went outside for a little bit, and I rolled around in the grass, right? Nice. And then I was hungry, so I had a little bit of lunch. I noshed a little bit, and then – What did you have for lunch? I had some pastries. Nice. Yeah, like a croissant and a corn cob with the corn taken away because I don't eat the corn. I just like the cob. And just a side of slop. I don't want a whole bowl because it's lunch. I don't want to overdo it. Yeah. But it was nice. What about yourself?

    Unknown: Oh, what did I have for lunch today? I had some fruit.

    Natty Bumpercar: You just had fruit?

    Unknown: Yeah. I really didn't eat a lot today. I had a little bit of sushi.

    Natty Bumpercar: Oh. Really?

    Unknown: Yeah. It's called a sunshine roll.

    Natty Bumpercar: I don't understand why.

    Unknown: Because it's avocado and lemon.

    Natty Bumpercar: Wait. Really? That sounds like a nice thing. Does it got the seaweed or the rice or the quinoa?

    Unknown: And rice. Rice. Oh, quinoa. Why? Do you know where to get that pig? Because I have to tell you. I would love to have quinoa sushi.

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah. We went. Sometimes we'll go to. Don't look down on me. But we will go to Whole Foods every so often. I love Whole Foods. They have the little pre-mades. And I've had a couple of times the quinoa. And it's pretty tasty.

    Unknown: I've got to try that.

    Natty Bumpercar: It's delish.

    Unknown: You say that so nice too. Quinoa. So many people, they butcher that name. They call it the quinoa.

    Natty Bumpercar: They do?

    Unknown: Yeah. It's like really crazy.

    Natty Bumpercar: No. So you worked 11 hours. What do you do? What do you do for 11 hours?

    Unknown: I do hair in a salon.

    Natty Bumpercar: I don't know what that means. What do you do hair? What does that mean?

    Unknown: Well, I cut hair. I color hair. I did somebody's hair. Actually, I did somebody's hair pink that it might have been very close to the color of you.

    Natty Bumpercar: Really?

    Unknown: Yeah. It was really pretty.

    Natty Bumpercar: Now what? Tell me the process. When somebody comes in and they go, hey, I was thinking of dyeing my hair pink like a pig. And you're like, bro, I got you settled here. Right?

    Unknown: I say like Aloysius pink. Yeah. Like porky pink. Oh, no. Like which pig are we matching?

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah. I mean, I hope it's I had a licensing deal at one point, but I don't know if it felt true or not because I had never heard back from the people. But I'm hoping there's an Aloysius pink out there somewhere. They owe me money.

    Unknown: All right. Well, today, I think I might have nailed it. It was Aloysius pink.

    Natty Bumpercar: And and and so and do you what do you work in a salon?

    Unknown: And where I own a salon pig. Yeah.

    Natty Bumpercar: You what?

    Unknown: Yeah, I own it. It's mine.

    Natty Bumpercar: You're an SBO.

    Unknown: Small business owner. Yes.

    Natty Bumpercar: Look at look at me making up acronyms. And that was good.

    Unknown: I really I was like, did he just say smelly body odor or and I was like, he would never insult me like that.

    Natty Bumpercar: I would never.

    Unknown: You only insult Natty, which I will say, you know, he's really good to you now. Want to chill out. He gave you the color today.

    Natty Bumpercar: He didn't crawl.

    Unknown: Oh, no.

    Natty Bumpercar: He gave me a pastry. It was a whole lot of long. Oh, yeah. That's what it was. So wait. So you do what you own it. Yes. What's it? What's it called?

    Unknown: Oh, it's called Salon Gossip. It's in Bloomfield.

    Natty Bumpercar: The first part made sense. The second part ain't make no sense.

    Unknown: Why gossip? It means to talk. We talk.

    Natty Bumpercar: And did you just tell me what gossip means?

    Unknown: I thought my version of gossip is. But I also. I also walk by a fish on a beach.

    Natty Bumpercar: Oh, no.

    Unknown: Gossip is not negative.

    Natty Bumpercar: Your telephone, you just turned into a robot person for a second thing.

    Unknown: Uh-oh. Uh-oh. Can you hear me? Can you hear me?

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah, there he was. There he is. Okay. Okay. I got worried.

    Unknown: I think it was the government. They come. They scramble my phone calls every once in a while because they know. They know I'm talking to you.

    Natty Bumpercar: You ever have, you know, pescatarian, do you ever have scrambled roe?

    Unknown: No. No. I've never had that.

    Natty Bumpercar: It sounds, sounds disgusting, doesn't it?

    Unknown: Yeah, it does. I don't even know what that is. Scrambled roe?

    Natty Bumpercar: Oh, roe, roe is fish eggs.

    Unknown: Oh, no, no, no.

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah, it sounds horrendous now that you know that.

    Unknown: I say no to roe. Yeah, no.

    Natty Bumpercar: Oh, no to roe.

    Unknown: Yeah.

    Natty Bumpercar: I like that. And it almost, my brain almost went political, but I don't, I ain't.

    Unknown: Me too. Yeah, but I don't. We're not going to go there.

    Natty Bumpercar: No, but I don't do that on this show, so.

    Unknown: We're not going to wade in that water. Oh, my goodness. Goodness gracious.

    Natty Bumpercar: I was right there with you. I was right there with you. Do you work, do you work in this salon by yourself? Do you have friends?

    Unknown: I have friends. I have friends, and I.

    Natty Bumpercar: Now, wait, when you said that, why did it have a question mark at the end of it? That was very interesting.

    Unknown: Because it's really like this thing. It's kind of like everybody's a friend, but we all work together, so they're kind of employees. Wow. I don't know. It's so weird to say that.

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah, and you realize this is being recorded, so. Yeah. Let's not end any friendships or anything.

    Unknown: No way, man. No way.

    Natty Bumpercar: They like your family.

    Unknown: Yeah, they are like my family.

    Natty Bumpercar: That's exactly right. Especially since your daughters are all leaving you. See, I just got really mean.

    Unknown: I'm so sorry. Oh, that hurt.

    Natty Bumpercar: They're going to. Oh, my gosh. They're going to college. I know. Bumpercon, I've been talking a lot to, at the kids' daycare, one of the teachers, her daughter, who I've known forever, who babysits around here sometimes, is going to college. Yeah. And so we have similar conversations. There's a lot of raw nerves, a lot of sadness. I know.

    Unknown: It's pretty intense right now to see your kids, like, packing their stuff up, and I'm like, I'm going to be an empty nester. Do you know what that is, Aloysius?

    Natty Bumpercar: Not familiar. Does it have anything to do with birds?

    Unknown: Well, I think it's, like, where it came from, but it means that all of my little baby birds, i.e., my children, are leaving. They're leaving the nest.

    Natty Bumpercar: Now, wait. Are they, like, twinsies? Why are they leaving at the same time?

    Unknown: Well, one's a freshman. Aw. And one's a senior in college, and they're moving out. I don't know what I'm going to do.

    Natty Bumpercar: You're going to cry?

    Unknown: Yeah, I was crying today. I cried today. Oh, God.

    Natty Bumpercar: This is the first interview where we've had a guest on the Virgin TV. I cried on my last interview with a dude, and he got really, he was like, are you okay? And I was just like, I don't know. I don't know.

    Unknown: But, like, I was just, you could cry in front of me any time.

    Natty Bumpercar: I don't think it makes me a weaker pig, if I'm to be honest.

    Unknown: I don't think it does. I don't think so.

    Natty Bumpercar: I feel like people look at it, and they're like, that's a pig who's tight with himself, you know?

    Unknown: Yeah. Yeah. You got to be good with your inner self.

    Natty Bumpercar: So, like, when they leave, what are you going to do with the extra time? Do you have stuff that you do for funsies?

    Unknown: Yeah, I do a lot of comedy, and I do, I love to do things like fundraisers, and I like to raise money for different causes.

    Natty Bumpercar: Like, what, like, fun, fundraiser? Like, you go, like, runs, like a 5K?

    Unknown: Well, I actually, no, no, no. That's really funny that you say that.

    Natty Bumpercar: How is it, though? I don't know.

    Unknown: That was ironic, because I won't run a 5K, because I don't really want to, I don't like to run. I mean, if there's a bad guy chasing me, I'll do what I need to do. But as far as, like, running, like, put a number on my chest, and, like, run, like, and then go for a finish line, that's not my style. So.

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah. I think Donna runs as a mouth. Hey-oh! Sorry.

    Unknown: Aloysius. I know, I know. I get a little bit. Who's getting frisky?

    Natty Bumpercar: Well, I get, I get, what happens is the later the night goes, the longer the interview, I get sleepier, and the sleepier I get, the crankier I get. So watch out, all right? I'm just warning you.

    Unknown: No, don't get cranky.

    Natty Bumpercar: No, I ain't gonna get cranks.

    Unknown: Okay. Well, no, I don't like to run those, but I do like to have fund raisers, but I put the fun in fund raisers. That's amazing. Ew.

    Natty Bumpercar: It's so gross, right? But that's what I do with my comedy.

    Unknown: Hold on.

    Natty Bumpercar: I'm shifting in my seat. That made me uncomfortable. Oh, that's so funny. She puts the fun in fun in fun.

    Unknown: Yeah.

    Natty Bumpercar: This is good. Okay. Wow. No, so that, no, I'm totally messing with you. That's a beautiful thing. I mean, that's one of our favorite things is anytime we do shows, if it's a fundraiser, because, you know, in theory, the audience is there. They're there to support something, and in theory, they're there to have fun. Right. And, you know, it's a different level from going to a show and just telling jokes versus people getting something out of it, you know? Yeah. They're having a fun time, whatever, best night of their lives, but you're actually helping people, too, which is beautiful, I think.

    Unknown: Yeah. Yeah, I have a big one that I'm planning. I just got the A-okay for it, actually. A-okay? Yeah. A-okay. Yeah, I don't know if you want to hear about it, but I can tell you.

    Natty Bumpercar: Nah, I'm good. You know, I like talking about the fish. No, I'm kidding. Yeah, of course. Tell me about it.

    Unknown: So, there's this really amazing place I went and I took a tour of on Monday. The moon? No, not the moon. I wish. That would be amazing. Can you imagine? Yeah, it was amazing. I mean, there's an eclipse coming up. Do you know that?

    Natty Bumpercar: What's an eclipse?

    Unknown: An eclipse is when the moon is…

    Natty Bumpercar: Is that what you do? Is that when you cut people's hair at night?

    Unknown: Yeah. Yes.

    Natty Bumpercar: You use your eclipse.

    Unknown: I use my eclipse. Yes, exactly. Actually, it's like when the moon crosses the path of the sun and it blocks it.

    Natty Bumpercar: The moon crosses the path. Oh, it sounds like science.

    Unknown: Okay, so do you ever go to the movies and somebody is annoying and gets in your way and they get their head in front of the screen and you can't see the movie for a second?

    Natty Bumpercar: You lost me. Hold on. I meant, okay. I like the scenario you were building. So I'm at the movies.

    Unknown: You're at the movies, right? And I think you and I are probably similar in height. We're both kind of short when we sit down.

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah, I barely… Yeah. One time the seat actually folded back up on me and I fell down the row.

    Unknown: Now, do I have… I get it.

    Natty Bumpercar: What I have to do is I have to bite a big tub of popcorn and sit in the seat next to me to keep the seat down. It's good.

    Unknown: That's awesome. So you're a buttered little pig. Oh, I love that.

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah. And then I just slide home. It's… That's great. That's awesome. And then I get a stomachache, if I'm to be honest. Whatever they put in that butter ain't butter, butter, you know?

    Unknown: No, it's not.

    Natty Bumpercar: It does not taste good.

    Unknown: No. Wait, no. I'm sorry.

    Natty Bumpercar: It does taste good, but it doesn't feel good. That's what I was trying to say.

    Unknown: No. No, that's not good.

    Natty Bumpercar: So I apologize. I got…

    Unknown: Not good for your cholesterol either, pig.

    Natty Bumpercar: Oh, my numbers are off the charts. I'm not even going to lie to you. Here's the thing. Bumper car, he has me on his insurance. I think it's like a PPO or whatever it is. And we… I go, you know, for my yearly physicals, and they… It's not looking good, is all I'm saying. Oh. Yeah. Yeah. They said I got to cut back on… Sometimes I'll just open a bottle of Wesson oil and drink it, because I just think it tastes good. No, but it's good. It's an old world recipe. It's called… Grease pig? It's called… I was going to call it oily pig, but grease pig sounds better.

    Unknown: Grease pig?

    Natty Bumpercar: Grease lightning, whatever it is.

    Unknown: Yeah. Well, I'm sure it's like grease lightning. I'm sure that… Yeah.

    Natty Bumpercar: The… All right, so you didn't go to the moon. No. And there's eclipse and moon. Okay, so tell me about the cool place you went, and I won't interrupt you. I almost promise.

    Unknown: Yeah, I almost promise I won't interrupt myself, because I have, like, focus issues, okay?

    Natty Bumpercar: So… Do you need glasses?

    Unknown: I do. I wear contacts.

    Natty Bumpercar: Have you ever taken something called Focus Factor?

    Unknown: No, what is that?

    Natty Bumpercar: So, in college, Bumper Guy used to go… There were these vitamins, and each bottle was, like, full. It was $40, and it was called Focus Factor, because somebody was just like, you should take these. And I don't know. I think they were full of Ginkgo Bilboa and other things like that, and I don't know what

    Unknown: Wow. Is that Rocky Bilboa's brother?

    Natty Bumpercar: Ginkgo? I think that's his adopted Asian brother. It could be. I mean, I don't know. Like Yoko Ono, Ginkgo Biloba? I don't know why Yoko Ono is in this all of a sudden. Wow, you're as tangential as Pig is. This is the first interview where I've been the one… I've been the straight man, where I've been the one who's like, let's get this shit back on the tracks. Let's reign it in. Let's pull it back.

    Unknown: This is, like, the highlight of my day. I have been waiting for this all day. I'm sorry, Pig. I'm just a little excited.

    Natty Bumpercar: So, hold on. You're telling me that working 11 hours in a mine wasn't the high point of your day? This is it. Okay.

    Unknown: This is it.

    Natty Bumpercar: Seriously. This is a pretty low bar, is what I'm telling you. Like, if you were like, hey, I bought a car today, and I had a cannoli, and then this was the best thing, then I'd be like, oh, that's good competition.

    Unknown: Well, I did just share a Magnolia's cupcake, and that was pretty cool, because I didn't have to drive into the city to get it.

    Natty Bumpercar: What kind?

    Unknown: I had vanilla vanilla. I love vanilla vanilla. Come on, that's my favorite kind. I know, me too.

    Natty Bumpercar: I don't want no chocolate near my… It's just like a yellow cake, and it's white frosting. And it's all I want. And back off. Don't call me basic, because it's what it is. It's perfect.

    Unknown: Perfect. And I take the bottom of the cupcake, and I take it in half, and I put it on top and make it like a sandwich, so I can even cake to icing ratio.

    Natty Bumpercar: And you split this? Yes. I mean, I would have tackled the person who brought it in, and then I would have probably eaten the whole thing as I was standing on them, because that's… You got to understand, that's a magical thing, that kind of cupcake. I know.

    Unknown: Oh, I know.

    Natty Bumpercar: I haven't been a magnolia in a long time.

    Unknown: Well, I promise you, if I ever get another interview or I get to meet you in person, I will bring you a cupcake.

    Natty Bumpercar: Okay, the first one, kind of doubtful at this point. The second one, though, you never know, right? I could be wandering around Bloomfield. Bloomfield? Bloomfield? Is that what it's called?

    Unknown: Bloomfield. Bloomfield.

    Natty Bumpercar: Oh, is that because there's so many flowers there?

    Unknown: Oh, that's a good question.

    Natty Bumpercar: Do you ever… You should probably call it Boomfield. It's more fun that way.

    Unknown: Boomfield. Yeah, like, boom!

    Natty Bumpercar: I'm doing doom down in Bloomfield. I like that. I keep it real down in the Bloomfield. Yeah. Yeah, you shouldn't do that. Tell me about your thing. I want to hear about it.

    Unknown: Okay, okay. So, I went on Monday to this place in New Jersey, which I have to keep it undisclosed because it's, like, for the safety of the children, but it's called Camp Fatima. Fatima. F-A-T-I-M-A. All right. And it's New Jersey's only all-volunteer camp for children with disabilities.

    Natty Bumpercar: Oh, that sounds amazing.

    Unknown: I know. And they just are celebrating their 50th anniversary. Five-zero? Five-zero of providing service to, like, all these kids. And it's amazing because you want to know what? I want to know. It's not funded by the government.

    Natty Bumpercar: Well, I… They get all their money.

    Unknown: They get all their money. They get all their money from volunteers. Wow. Yeah, people that donate. And I went, Pig, and it was amazing because there's kids from ages 5 to 21. All right. And they have all different kinds of disabilities from autism to cerebral palsy. I mean, you know, it was just… It was amazing to see these kids enjoy music. I went with my friend, Michael Murphy, who is a musician. Michael Murphy. And, yeah, he's a really talented singer. And he plays the guitar. And we went up there to bring the kids some joy. And just… It was… It was unbelievable. So… Wow. I went… Yeah.

    Natty Bumpercar: And so is it, like, only during the summer or is it all year round?

    Unknown: Well, they do two-week programs. They do two weeks in the summer. So your child would have to sign up or apply for… It's one week at a time. And then they have four weekends throughout the year. But this is what's really interesting and cool. There's… Each of the kids that go up, they have a five-year program. There's a file that's written about them. And in the file, it's, like, their parents, you know, mom pig, dad pig. And they're, like, nurse pig. Let's just say so that you can understand it. I understand.

    Natty Bumpercar: All right. Thank you. Just want to speak in your terms. Thank you for breaking it down for me. I appreciate that.

    Unknown: Well, you know, I know you stay in that yard over there, bumper cars. You don't get out much, so… I got a sty.

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah.

    Unknown: I know. And I heard it's a pig sty. But so they get together, they collaborate, and they put together… They write a file for each of the kids. And then a camp counselor on Saturday receives a file for a child. They read about them. They learn about them. And then Sunday, when the child gets dropped off to camp, that's their buddy for the whole week. Wow. Yeah. So they have one-on-one counselors for each of the kids, like, for the whole week. Wow. So what they do, it's incredible. It's very moving. What they do is they make it like a camp that would be for kids without disabilities. So they have arts and crafts. They have music. They have entertainment. So we were there as the entertainment that day. As you can tell, quite entertaining.

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah. All right.

    Unknown: But I love this one place, see, because I have issues myself with, like, focusing, as you could tell. And sometimes, like…

    Natty Bumpercar: I didn't pick up on that at all.

    Unknown: Well, that's okay. Well, thank you. I appreciate the fact that you didn't notice that. So they have all these… They have, like, really cool things for these kids that maybe they wouldn't get at home. But it's really neat, too, because it gives the parents an opportunity to have a little bit of respite without it seeming like they're just, you know, running away from the fact that it is challenging when you have, you know, a child with a disability. It's a really rough thing to even say and articulate because it sounds kind of rough for me to say because I don't want to hurt anybody's feelings, but it's the truth.

    Natty Bumpercar: I mean, having kids in general. And one of Bumper Guy's kids has been at the grandparents all week. And they switched off. And two weeks ago, they took the little one. And this week, they took the less little one. And as a parent, it don't matter, you know, who your kid is. Every so often, it's nice to have a little break, a little breather. Yeah. And it's especially wonderful if the kids are at a camp where they can experience all these awesome things. Yeah. So, like, do they stay there over… Is it overnight days? Yeah.

    Unknown: It's one… Like, the one… For the summer, it's an overnight experience for the entire week. And each day… This is what's so cool. Each day is, like, they do a theme week. So, the theme week that I was there for was… Oh, my gosh. What the heck is the name of it? We're off to see the Wizard of Oz. So, it was Wizard of Oz. So, all the decorations were Wizard of Oz around the camp. But then each day, they do a different holiday. So, I was there on Halloween, which the people did not tell me because they knew I would dress up. And they didn't want me to be scared. Pretty funny. So, whatever. And then the next day was Valentine's Day. So, my birthday… Yeah. My birthday is February 13th. So, I was like… So, basically, it's my birthday today, which is why I felt really good about being there.

    Natty Bumpercar: So, you made it about yourself. I'm just kidding. No, no, no. I'm just kidding. No, no, no. Hey, everybody. Look at me. My birthday. All right. Look at me. All right.

    Unknown: Well, I felt the gift was that I got to spend it with a kid's pig. You don't have to be such a sassy, Pam. I'm a little sassy.

    Natty Bumpercar: A little sassy.

    Unknown: You are. Stop it. Okay? So, you're like spicy pork right now. Oh, wow. So, what happened… Wait. So, listen to this one. I love this. So, they help the kids make gifts in the craft little area. Uh-huh. And Friday, at the end of camp, it's Christmas. And they have Christmas. So, the kids get to, like, give each other gifts.

    Natty Bumpercar: So, like, the whole… That week sounds insane. It sounds like Nightmare Before Christmas, where you got, like, oh, look, there's Valentine's Day. There's Halloween Day. There's… There's… There's Christmas. And it's all in the same week?

    Unknown: Yes, because these kids sometimes don't really get to experience it with friends in school because they have disabilities at different levels. So, some of them might not get to, you know… You know what I mean? Yeah. Like, remember Pig when you were little and you went to, like, pig school?

    Natty Bumpercar: Little pig school. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

    Unknown: Yeah. Right? So, you got to have all those fun, like, holidays with your friends.

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah.

    Unknown: Right.

    Natty Bumpercar: And they don't get to experience it.

    Unknown: No. So, they make it happen for these kids. And everything is… Like, volunteerism and everything is donations. So, like, cray paper and crayons and paint. It's, like, people donate to… I know they have, like, an Amazon wish list. I cannot wait to help these people out because we're… So, I'm going to do a comedy show.

    Natty Bumpercar: Oh, that sounds amazing.

    Unknown: I'm going to produce a comedy show. I don't know how I'm going to do it, but you know what? I'm going to learn and I'm going to make it happen for them because it's important to me because that's what I know. I'm not running a 5K. I love these kids. And it's not like they're less than for anybody. No one's getting me to run. It's just I'm not doing it.

    Natty Bumpercar: You should probably… It sounds like you should involve cupcakes because that sounds like it's something up your wheelhouse. Yeah. Cupcakes. Cupcakes and comedy.

    Unknown: And comedy. Cupcakes and comedy. Oh, my gosh. Pig, you might have just helped me name it.

    Natty Bumpercar: Thank you. You're welcome.

    Unknown: You're amazing. I'm great. And you know what? You know what's more amazing? We could do, like, a bake sale. Yeah. To help raise money for the car. I think you just totally helped me. I hope it's okay if I take that idea. Hold on. I'll give you credit.

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah. Bubba Kai's saying yes. He's nodding yes. You're allowed to.

    Unknown: Hey, that's so exciting, Aloysius.

    Natty Bumpercar: Bubba Kai's also saying he would love anything he could do to help at all. Oh, he's the best. Because just hearing about the kids, you know, close to my heart, it makes me melt a little bit.

    Unknown: Oh, thanks, Pig. Tell him I said thank you.

    Natty Bumpercar: No, I don't want to make, he's, no. He's emotional? I might tell him later. He's a little bit emotional. So, hold on. I got to pull it back a little bit because I got to go to bed soon. You understand? Okay. So, that's a beautiful thing. And when you find out more about it, you're going to tell us about it so that we can promote it more. Obzy. Obzy? You know who I stole Obzy from? Who? You're who? Jackie Byrne.

    Unknown: Oh, my God. Isn't she awesome? Isn't she awesome? Isn't she awesome? Isn't she awesome?

    Natty Bumpercar: She's phenomenal. She is phenomenal. Obzy. And who is, oh, and so, okay, real quick before we wrap. Yeah. You cut A, you do comedy, you got kids going to college, you do wonderful benefits. What is your favorite part of The Wizard of Oz?

    Unknown: Ooh, good question.

    Natty Bumpercar: Because you were just talking about it and it made me think.

    Unknown: My favorite part of The Wizard of Oz.

    Natty Bumpercar: So, I don't want to talk about it. I don't want to put too much pressure. That's a lot of pressure. So, what was the first bit that popped into your head?

    Unknown: I love the scarecrow. I'm a big fan of the scarecrow.

    Natty Bumpercar: You can go this way, you can go that way.

    Unknown: Yeah, I love the scarecrow.

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah, I can't imagine why. I do, I can't.

    Unknown: I think I identify. Oh, interesting.

    Natty Bumpercar: Wow, this is like a therapy session all of a sudden.

    Unknown: Well, you know, it's funny. That's probably why you and I get along because, you know what, pigs love bales of hay. And I'm stuffed with hay.

    Natty Bumpercar: Okay, so you got back to being weird again. I like how we came full circle. I feel like being from New Jersey, it's more like you're stuffed with hay.

    Unknown: Hay.

    Natty Bumpercar: Like that.

    Unknown: But you know what? Pig, you know it's funny that you're calling me weird, but you, Aloysius, are a pig that does a podcast.

    Natty Bumpercar: What? It's got alliteration. Pig podcast. Podcast pig. Yes. Yeah, that's true. Ain't nothing strange about that, girl.

    Unknown: No, it's… No, ain't no hollaback, girl.

    Natty Bumpercar: I don't know what just happened. He started singing. You literally, you just, in the middle of an interview, you were just like, I'm going to sing some Gwen. Anybody okay with that? All right. Here we go. It's Stefani time. Here we go.

    Unknown: It's like I have musical Tourette's or something.

    Natty Bumpercar: A little bit like that. A little bit like that. A little tiny bit like that.

    Unknown: Yeah.

    Natty Bumpercar: So, okay. All right. You're going to… Oh, you're going to give me links? Yeah. Did you have fun? I hope you had fun on the concert.

    Unknown: I had the best time. I can't believe this. This was so much fun.

    Natty Bumpercar: Oh, that's amazing. I look forward to meeting you in public, and I'm assuming that you're just always on hand going to have the perfect cupcake, because if I walk into you and you ain't got one, we're going to have problems as well.

    Unknown: No matter what cupcake, I'm going to teach you the proper way to eat a cupcake.

    Natty Bumpercar: Girl, I'm a pig. I know a proper way to eat, okay? It was bred into me. It's what I am. It's what I do. I eat. Trust me.

    Unknown: When's your birthday? Do you have a birthday, Aloysius?

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah. It was evidently in July, because somebody brought it up, and now I don't even remember. Do you remember it? Was it at the end of July? I think it was beginning of July. I don't know, but somebody on the internet was just like, hey, it's your birthday, pig. Bupka missed it. And I was just like, wait. I missed my birthday, too. So it's fine. I'm a happy go lucky pig. Don't make me get emotional, okay? I'm sorry. Yeah.

    Unknown: I was going to say, because I would get you a cupcake for your birthday, and now I have to wait a while.

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah. So I think my birthday is August 12th. That's amazing. I love that. That gives you two days to pony up with a cupcake. No, I'm just kidding.

    Unknown: That's amazing. Tell me where to send it, and I will send you a cupcake.

    Natty Bumpercar: You send it to headquarters. Pigo Box. Pigo Box is good. I'm going to give you. You scored a lot of points. If this was at midnight, you would really be racking up points right now. I'm going to tell you. Pigo Box is amazing. Holy cow. Wow. You're really hogging the spotlight on my show is what you're doing, all right?

    Unknown: Oh, my gosh. I'm sorry.

    Natty Bumpercar: You're hamming it up a little too much.

    Unknown: I am totally sorry. I am totally hamming it up.

    Natty Bumpercar: All right. So I got to go.

    Unknown: You're going to be baking me to come back on your show.

    Natty Bumpercar: She's still going. I'm trying to run out of here, and she's still going.

    Unknown: Oh, it's so funny. Wow. Wait, wait, wait, wait.

    Natty Bumpercar: All the way home? Is that what you're doing?

    Unknown: That's what's going to happen.

    Natty Bumpercar: Oh, my goodness.

    Unknown: I'm going to put a little squiggly pigtail on the back of my beetle. I'm going to make it a pig beetle.

    Natty Bumpercar: A pig beetle? A beetle? A beetle pig. A beetle pig. I was going to tell you. I was supposed to tell you, but then I swear I've got to go. When I got, I went to a salon, not salon gossip, but I went to a salon, and I got my hair cut one day, and she was trimming, and then she's like, I'm just going to trim this, and I was like, that's fine. She nipped the end of my tail off, all right?

    Unknown: Oh, my gosh.

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah, she thought it was like, hey, I don't know what she thought, but nip, squeal, all right? I did not. That's terrible. I did not tip, and I will not be going back, and they got a poor young-

    Unknown: She already got her tip. Tip of your tail. Oh, my God.

    Natty Bumpercar: Fine. All right. On that, ladies and gentlemen, I want to thank Donna so much for coming on the show and for doing such great things. Thank you so much for having me. And you have a great night, and don't work 11 hours. That's too many hours, all right?

    Unknown: I'm going to go count pigs tonight instead of sheep, just in honor of you.

    Natty Bumpercar: In your sleep? Really? That's going to put you to bed? No. Don't count pigs, because you know what that does?

    Unknown: What?

    Natty Bumpercar: It makes you hungry, so don't do it. That's not good. Actually, it wouldn't make you hungry, because you're a pescatarian. Exactly. If it don't count pig fish, or else you'll get hungry, I suppose. Pig fish. Okay. Send over your avails. No, I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. That's a different conversation. Okay. But thank you so much.

    Unknown: Thank you, Aloysius.

    Natty Bumpercar: I hope to talk to you again soon. This was a blast. Thank you so much.

    Unknown: Thank you. Tell Natty I said goodnight.

    Natty Bumpercar: All right. All right. All right. Natty. Blah, blah, blah. All right. And click. Thank you so much, Pig. Thank you so much, Donna. Thank you so much. Thank you so much. Thank you so much. Like, seriously, Donna's had me on a lot of shows, and a lot of them are benefits. And I did one fairly recently, and this story was heartbreaking. And the mom that we were helping gave her story of her son, and I don't want to go into it because this is the Bumper Podcast, but it was a beautiful story, and she made me cry, and she made me come home and hug my kids. And I do that anyway. I do it as much as I can, and I feel like you should do that, too. I make fun of having kids. And I kind of try to poo-poo it and say, oh, it's terrible. And it is rough. It's hard. Being a parent is very difficult. Life is very difficult. But there's, you know, I get stuff from my kids that I can't get anywhere else. I looked on Amazon. I looked in boxes. I looked in bags. I looked in barrels. And whatever my kids give me, they don't sell there. No, but, you know, it's, you come home, and last night I was even, I looked in on the I looked on the boys when I got home, and I was about to go to bed, and just, just watching them sleep. Just, they're silent, but they're there, and you made them, and they hold your heart, and they hold your, their everything. They are my everything. And the funny thing is, is like, I'm saying this right now, but on the flip of a switch, if one of, if I hear an explosion upstairs, I will start screaming like I've never screamed ever. Um, so there's this, there's this crazy dichotomy is what I'm saying, but, so I was talking to this mom, and she, you know, she brought me to tears, and kind of like the camp that Donna was just talking about. Like, that's a beautiful thing. You gotta help people. People need help. Life is hard. The world is tough. You gotta take care of each other. I've said this before in other Bumper Podcasts, and I know it gets contentious sometimes when Pig or, uh, Rufus shows up, and especially when Robot shows up. Uh, but everybody here loves each other. In the end, we all love each other. We fight like a family, and you know why you fight like a family? You know what that's about? It's because you're all stuck in the same small area together for years and years and years. You see each other every day. There's no break. So you fight like a family. A crazy family. That's what we fight like. But it doesn't matter, because in the end, you love each other. I have friends like that. In comedy. These, friends that, like. I don't, haven't had this, this, this type of friendship that I can ever remember. Where I fight with them. I yell at them. I, we, we don't say nice things. We take, and then we come back and we're best, we're pals again. It's kind of, it's kind of fun. They have different viewpoints. I try to listen to them. I try to counter them. I, I feel like that broadens my depth of perception of the world. By listening, even to stuff that I don't like. Then it, it helps me to see things in a different light. And to react to things. Because then I, I'm more aware, more cognizant that things are out there. I think it's important to listen. I don't think it's, you have to, you know, take things in. But it's, I think you can listen and then disseminate. Take things with a grain of salt. Take what you want. Get rid of the rest. Whatever. I did that a lot in school. Speaking of taking things. We have a call this week. Another call. Same person. She's doing a great job. She's three for three. Let's see what she's got.

    Unknown: Hey, Maddie Bumpacar. My question to you is. How has your life changed since she started doing pig as puppeteering?

    Natty Bumpercar: Oh, okay. You're welcome. No, thank you. Seriously, the calls. The calls. The calls are great. So how has my life changed since I started. I'm going to reinterpret the question as hanging out with pig. Uh, because last time he got kind of offended. I didn't, I didn't get offended. I'm here. I'm still here. I'm right here, bro. I'm in the studio. You can, you're looking at me and you're talking about me. I think it's third person. Might be fourth person. I don't even know how many persons is a person. I don't, I'm a pig. All right. Anyway. What is she talking about? How did my life change when I met you? Straight down hell. Right down the tubes. Right down the tracks. Right to the bottom. Right to the base. Where we at? You're going to see your face like that. Uh oh. I think we got somebody coming downstairs. I think we're going to have to answer the call in just a second. Who's here? Oh, it's Ollie. Hold on. Come here, Ollie. Where you at? You want to be on the, you want to be on the show? Oh, okay. So this is, uh, Oliver. You want to say hi? Hi. Hi. You want to listen to the thing? Yeah. Okay. Ollie, uh, we're doing a phone call. How, what, here was her question. How did your life change when you met Aloysius? J-Pig.

    Unknown: I don't know.

    Natty Bumpercar: You don't know? Did your life get better or did it get worse?

    Unknown: Um, worse, I think. You think it got worse when you met Pig? Holy cannoli.

    Natty Bumpercar: I just said, I think. Oh, but it still hurt my feelings a tiny bit, right? Okay.

    Unknown: I'm going to, I'm going to cry. Don't even cry. Why are you even doing this? You're annoying. You're annoying me. I'm annoying you?

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah. All right, hold on. Hold on a second. Papa Kai, come here. You take this kid. Hey, buddy. What are you doing? Were you talking to Pig?

    Unknown: I think.

    Natty Bumpercar: You think you were talking to Pig? Yeah. You're not, you're not sure, though?

    Unknown: I think I was talking to Piggy.

    Natty Bumpercar: Now, where do you going to be at? Where are you at next week? Somewhere far away.

    Unknown: I'm going to talk.

    Natty Bumpercar: Huh?

    Unknown: Like, wait, wait, wait, what is it again, Dad?

    Natty Bumpercar: You want me to whisper it to you? You want me to tell you a secret? Yeah. Okay.

    Unknown: What is it you're going to tell me? It's Cape Cod.

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah. What are we going to do there?

    Unknown: Um, I don't know.

    Natty Bumpercar: What do we do at Cape Cod? What's there?

    Unknown: Um, we go to the beach.

    Natty Bumpercar: We go to the beach?

    Unknown: Mm-hmm.

    Natty Bumpercar: That sounds fun. Who's going to be there? Fun people?

    Unknown: Yeah, all our cousins.

    Natty Bumpercar: A lot of our cousins. That's right. There's so many of them, right?

    Unknown: Except for Keegan and Cameron.

    Natty Bumpercar: Oh, no. We don't have our Keegan and Cameron. I'm so sad. We also, we don't have a lot of our cousins. I mean, there's a lot of them that aren't there, but there's a lot of them that are. What? Are you going to have fun?

    Unknown: Yeah. I think so.

    Natty Bumpercar: Uh, no. Are you afraid of the drive?

    Unknown: Nope.

    Natty Bumpercar: Do you remember how long the drive took?

    Unknown: Uh, I don't know. Okay. I think I should put them.

    Natty Bumpercar: You want to put them back on?

    Unknown: Uh-huh. Okay. There you go.

    Natty Bumpercar: Uh, the drive took five and a half hours.

    Unknown: Five and a half? That's, I want to do five and a half.

    Natty Bumpercar: Five, so there's 60 minutes in an hour. So, if you take five hours and you multiply it by six, then that means you have, so it's 300 minutes. Ah. So, it's, then another half hour. So, it's 330 minutes. 330 minutes. Does that sound right? Does it feel right? It is right.

    Unknown: Until I do it again.

    Natty Bumpercar: Uh, no. We don't want you to touch that. Remember how you? We're messing around with this and you broke that.

    Unknown: Oh.

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah. Yeah. I don't want to do this again. No.

    Unknown: Stop laughing.

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah.

    Unknown: Can you just stop laughing?

    Natty Bumpercar: You want me to stop laughing forever?

    Unknown: Yes.

    Natty Bumpercar: But won't I be like a sad daddy at that point?

    Unknown: I think no.

    Natty Bumpercar: You think no? You think not no? Did you eat your breakfast? I think we should go to school soon, don't you think?

    Unknown: Oh, my goodness. Yes.

    Natty Bumpercar: Not school. For you, it's camp. Or it's pre-K. What is it?

    Unknown: Pre-K.

    Natty Bumpercar: Pre-K all day. All day. Come on, everybody. Pre-K. Can you stop saying that? I'm singing a song. You won't let me laugh. You won't let me sing. You won't let me have any fun at all. What are you? A listener of the Bumper Podcast? Waka waka. Just kidding.

    Unknown: I think this is good.

    Natty Bumpercar: Do you want to go upstairs? Are you done?

    Unknown: No. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. Are you going to show me something?

    Natty Bumpercar: Are you going to show me something? No. All right. Well, I think what we should do while Ollie goes and shows me something is say goodbye to everybody. Can you say goodbye, Bumper Podcast?

    Unknown: Bye, Bumper Podcast.

    Natty Bumpercar: Can you say thanks, Donna, for being on the show? What? Say thanks, Donna.

    Unknown: Thanks, Donna.

    Natty Bumpercar: For being on the show.

    Unknown: For being on the show.

    Natty Bumpercar: All right, everybody. Thank you so much. Hugs and hearts. Hugs and hearts. Go help somebody today.

    Unknown: Go help somebody today.

    Unknown: I know his name. I don't want to tell.

    Natty Bumpercar: You don't want to tell everybody? The dreamy. Oh, good job. That's why he broke the microphone. I told you he was going to do it. That's why we don't touch things all the time, guys.

    Unknown: Now he broke it forever? Yes, forever.

    Natty Bumpercar: There's no need to yell, because the microphone's right there. And you've got headphones on, so you can hear yourself talk.

    Unknown: Yeah, that's creepy.

    Natty Bumpercar: Remember how he just broke it by touching it?

    Unknown: Oh, yeah. I remember how he broke it. So, you're still touching it. It's amazing.

    Unknown: Oh, yeah. Imagine he took a nap or something. He's making me so hurting. He's hurting. Fix the boy. You definitely didn't touch it. Take a shower. I can tell that. Oliver, I'm not going to wear the microphone. All right, take them off. I wish I could tell my story. Why are you touching the microphone? I just get excited. I don't know. I love animals really much like that. I like animals, too.

    Natty Bumpercar: Do you have animals on your shirt? Why are you trying to climb?

    Unknown: Because I want to get to the microphone.

    Natty Bumpercar: Do you want to stand, too? Wow, you guys are

    Unknown: out of control. They're out of control. Daddy just hit the microphone.

    Natty Bumpercar: Welcome to Distraction City. Population, those two.

    Unknown: Daddy's distracted. Stop spitting.

    Natty Bumpercar: Did you spit?

    Unknown: No, Oliver keeps on making the breath on me. What's he doing? Stop making the breath on me. It smells bad, I guess.

    Natty Bumpercar: Does it pig breath? It's just talking to the microphone.

    Unknown: Don't yell.

    Natty Bumpercar: What did Daddy do yesterday besides a tree? Something you're both excited about.

    Unknown: Is it food?

    Natty Bumpercar: Man, you guys are good at answering questions today. I'm trying. You know what? After your last appearance, everyone's excited about you being on the show. I mean, I was.

    Unknown: Stop putting your breath on me. I see the backyard. That's the front yard. Yeah, it's the front. So anyway, I want to tell us…

    Natty Bumpercar: Oliver keeps on putting his breath on you. Hey, Ollie, can you stop putting your breath on people? It's so much cleaning. It smells like… Come on. He just woke up. He just ate some food. Can a dog smell a little bit?

    Unknown: It smells like rotten teeth breath.

    Natty Bumpercar: Ollie, do you have rotten teeth breath? Oh, no. Done, done.

    Unknown: He's going to have to go to the doctor.

    Natty Bumpercar: Now I have rotting teeth breath. Wait, is it catching?

    Unknown: Somebody smell my breath. Smell my breath.

    Natty Bumpercar: We're going to have to go to the dentist and get all of our teeth pulled. Oh, yeah, the dentist. I said doctor. No, I don't want to do that. Golly gee. Golly, golly gee. Good voice you're doing. You're so heavy. I can't hold you like this. Daddy? Yes, sir. Oliver.

    Unknown: What are you… Wait, on Sunday… Oliver. On Sunday, are we having a babysitter? Babysitter?

    Natty Bumpercar: No, on Sunday, we're having the whole family over. Who? No, come on.

    Unknown: Not all of them. It's Mother's Day.

    Natty Bumpercar: Mother is a pig. That's on Sunday, again. What's Saturday? I've said that a few times. Do we have a babysitter on Sunday? No, we do not. I just said… On Saturday? We don't have a babysitter this weekend. There's no babysitter this weekend.

    Unknown: But you said… Can I babysit?

    Natty Bumpercar: Oliver, what day do we have a babysitter?

    Unknown: I don't know. It's like a mystery now. Oh, June 10th.

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah. I know. June 10th. June 10th is the worst. I can't believe it.

    Unknown: I can't believe it.

    Natty Bumpercar: No. That would be the worst thing ever.

    Unknown: The worst?

    Natty Bumpercar: Why would you say that? Oh, my goodness.

    Unknown: Then Mommy would never see you again. That'd be so sad.

    Natty Bumpercar: And Mommy would cry.

    Unknown: Could I have his bed? I'm joking. That was a hilarious joke.

    Natty Bumpercar: Never mind. Guys, where did we go last weekend? We went to the city. And what did we do?

    Unknown: I didn't go to the city. You went to the city? We went to a show. What show? You and me did jokes.

    Natty Bumpercar: I did jokes and you guys came? You went to a show? Did you have fun?

    Unknown: Comedy show? Maybe.

    Natty Bumpercar: Maybe.

    Unknown: Socks came too. No, he did not. Yes, we did.

    Natty Bumpercar: Was Socks in the back seat of the car?

    Unknown: Yeah, probably. No, he wasn't. No. Oliver ate… Socks ate pizza. Oliver ate pizza. Why did he eat pizza? Because he was sneaking in.

    Natty Bumpercar: You ate pizza because you were sneaking in?

    Unknown: This is ridiculous. Socks ate pizza with me.

    Natty Bumpercar: You guys went to a pizza parlor together?

    Unknown: No.

    Natty Bumpercar: What kind of pizza did you get?

    Unknown: I don't know.

    Natty Bumpercar: Cheese pizza. What kind of pizza did Socks get? Dog treat pizza.

    Unknown: There's no such thing as dog treat pizza. Dog treat pizza. That sounds yummy.

    Natty Bumpercar: It's only for dogs. It's my favorite kind though.

    Unknown: That smells yucky. Dog treat pizza? Depends on what they're on. It's only for dogs. So if I went into a pizza place and I ordered a dog treat pizza, they wouldn't give it to me? No way. Only for Socks.

    Natty Bumpercar: Oh, man. What if… So I'd have to have Socks next to me. Or maybe I'd have to pay Socks to buy the dog treat pizza so that I could go outside

    Unknown: and eat it. How are you going to pay the dog?

    Natty Bumpercar: He doesn't even have a wife. He doesn't even have a wife. He doesn't even have a wife. It tastes like poop dogs. Ew. Dogs don't eat that. That sounds disgusting.

    Unknown: There's no way. It tastes for people. It's only for dog treats for only dogs.

    Natty Bumpercar: There is no way that the health code is not being violated by him selling dog poop.

    Unknown: There's no way that they're going to let him do that.

    Natty Bumpercar: They don't even have a dog. They don't even have a dog. They don't even have a dog. They don't even have a dog. They don't even have a dog.

    Unknown: They didn't even let me in restaurants.

    Natty Bumpercar: Did you sit next to him while he ate that pizza?

    Unknown: And I ate mine cheese.

    Natty Bumpercar: So let me get this straight. You can't sit next to Emerson eating strawberries but you can sit next to Socks eating dog poop pizza?

    Unknown: It doesn't make sense. No. It's the dog treat pizza. Then I'll try it. I drove Socks back here.
