    Bumperpodcast # 159 – At a loss

    Continuing in my sporadic spiral of crumbling … I present to you a new Bumperpodcast that has a guest host who needs to learn a thing or two about not touching the microphone.

    And – with that … I digress.

    Do you digress? Let us know by sending an email to bumperpodcast@nattybumpercar.com.

    People should not be distressed about a digress!

    About This Episode

    In this chaotic and heartwarming episode of Bumperpodcast, Natty Bumpercar attempts to record with an unusual guest host – a very young child who doesn't quite grasp podcasting yet. With headquarters overrun by children and Producer absent (stuck in the computer), Natty struggles to maintain control as his pint-sized co-host learns about microphones and windscreens. Between managing the energetic toddler and explaining podcast basics, Natty shares updates about the new baby in the house using his signature absurdist humor, including a memorable riff about a baby drinking his "milkshake" (his life). The episode captures the beautiful mess of parenting meeting podcasting, with Natty gamely comparing his young helper's hosting skills to previous Bumperpodcast guests like Robot and Moth the Sheep.

    Memorable Quotes

    “My life was a milkshake the baby had a straw he was across the room and he was eating it up… he intimidated me with his straw and said something along the lines of daddy i'm going to drink your milkshake”

    — Natty Bumpercar

    “You even with the silly talk sound better than robot ever did so that's that's a plus you're not as good of a host as moth the sheep but you're you know you're right in there right in the middle”

    About This Episode

    Natty Bumpercar introduces his latest fashion trend in this hilarious episode of Bumperpodcast. After receiving feedback about last week's episode, Natty decides to keep things focused by discussing his new rubber band bracelet collection. The orange rubber band from a grocery store container leads to the formation of an impromptu "rubber band club" with Tiny Bumpercar, who sports a yellow one. When a green rubber band is discovered on the floor, things get complicated as Natty struggles with whether to expand beyond citrus colors. The episode takes a turn as Natty reveals the ongoing drama about the abandoned green rubber band and his current status as the sole remaining member of the rubber band gang.
