    About This Episode

    In this Thanksgiving-themed episode of Bumperpodcast, Natty Bumpercar faces the wrath of Turkey, who's upset about being excluded from his traditional holiday interview. The situation escalates when it's revealed Natty came down with a mysterious case of "the loop de loo" that caused him to forget everything. Meanwhile, Producer the Frog reveals he's been sleeping in the backyard because no one invited him inside, leading to an emotional workplace revelation. Aloysious J. Pig threatens legal action while everyone learns an important grammar lesson about possessive apostrophes. The chaos concludes with Natty promising a holiday party to make amends with everyone.

    Turkey: oh

    Natty Bumpercar: so awesome i'm glad you guys are all having fun and this is all wonderful

    Producer: i am not i don't usually get to participate in these types of things but i feel like it's fun and hard to get involved as well i'm usually just in my producer booth so i'm going to try one for me i would like you to sleep inside the house tonight like that oh ease yeah like that i would like to have to eat take a shower easy and not sleep in the backyard is uh please uh if it pleases you it's very cold out there in the snow it's not again i don't know even know if you knew this snarving everywhere okay i'm a frog but i'd like to sleep inside okay they wanted

    Natty Bumpercar: to get that out there so they're all clearing things off of our chests did you said producer this is i'm glad we're bringing this up because i had no idea you were why do you sleep outside we

    Producer: have so many rooms here well i was never invited to stay in here and so everybody else seems to go sleep whatever they want and eat whatever they want to do in an hour or more i have to go have myilsty okay but I want, and that's just not who I am, okay?

    Aloysious J. Pig: Nanny, it's just not who he is, okay? You ain't gotta frog-secute the guy just because he's got a good spirit and a good heart, okay? Okay.

    Natty Bumpercar: Okay, uh, Pig, thank you. You got very emotional for that. That was very sweet of you. Uh, but Frog… My name is Producer. I'm Producer. Yes, Producer. I'm sorry. Thank you. I… Every night when you leave, when you like, wrap up and you're heading home, or what I thought was, like, you say goodbye, and you're like, alright, see everybody later, and you get your stuff and you go out the front door. And so we all thought that you had a house, or maybe you even had a family. We don't know anything about you, so…

    Aloysious J. Pig: No, this, no, it seems like it is moving into my purview. Uh, Mr. Producer, would you say that, uh, the Nanny Bumpercon is a affiliate affiliates have, uh, been disregarding you in any way? Because ipso facto, if they have, then that becomes a legal issue that I believe I could represent you properly for. And you know what? At some point, this house is uh, might become your house is uh, my friend, is uh,

    Natty Bumpercar: Thank you, Turkey. Yes. So, exactly. So what Turkey just said is the truth and the, and, yes. We just thought that Producer was going somewhere else. Should we have known? Maybe, but he was going out the front door. We never, why would we think he was going to the backyard? That doesn't make any sense. And, you know, I don't know a lot about him, and I feel bad about that, but that's just, uh, you know, we just haven't had, like, personal conversations. He's very professional. He goes into his booth, he does his job, and he's wonderful at it, for the most part, and he, he, that's, that's it, you know? I think we should make time, we're in the holiday season, so maybe we should get together with everyone and have a nice holiday party, and, and we can all get to know each other a little bit better. Wouldn't that be nice? Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

    Aloysious J. Pig: Yeah, of course you're going to be invited, Turkey. I think after this whole debacle that we've, yes, don't worry about it. You're going to be here. What I got to say, Turkey, you're kind of feathering up the joint a little bit. There's a lot of feathers everywhere, okay? So just, if you're going to molt, don't molt here, okay? Uh, I will be awaiting my invitation for this soiree, and, uh, please do run it by my calendar. To make sure I am

    Producer: available. I would like to be there, too, if you could please. I would really appreciate just being included, you know, this one time.

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah, okay, everyone's going to be included, and I'm sorry if anyone felt like they were left out, and you're all awesome. All of you.

    In this chaotic episode of Bumperpodcast, Aloysious J. Pig attempts to host a show called "Monster Interview Monster" but gets confused when his guest, a young human named Emerson, insists he's not a monster. The interview quickly derails as they debate who is and isn't a monster, with Aloysious struggling to understand the difference. Natty Bumpercar, Doodle Poodle, and Rufus T. Rufus each drop by to interact with Emerson, who has been mysteriously left alone in the studio. Meanwhile, a mysterious blue monster with peach horns and a fish tail keeps appearing and disappearing. The episode features the reveal of the studio dog's name (Popcorn) and ends with Rufus T. Rufus attempting to recruit Emerson in a scheme to take over the podcast.

    About This Episode

    Natty Bumpercar celebrates his favorite holiday – Groundhog Day! In this special episode, Natty welcomes Mr. Groundhog himself to discuss the bizarre American tradition of letting a varmint predict the weather. The conversation takes unexpected turns as Aloysious J. Pig joins in to question the groundhog about the uncomfortable reality of being pulled from a hole by men in top hats. The episode explores the oddity of this enduring tradition, including revelations about Mr. Groundhog's school days with Punxsutawney Phil. Things get chaotic as the show veers into discussions about the flu, shopping lists, and whether the groundhog actually bites the handlers.

    Memorable Quotes

    “It's the day when we let a varmint come out of a hole and tell us what the weather's gonna be. It's weird why how does this still happen? It's amazing I love it.”

    — Natty Bumpercar

    “If you're sleeping in your little hole and some dude wearing like a tuxedo jacket type thing maybe a cape… does he have a monocle? Is it terrifying?”

    — Aloysious J. Pig

    “I found out if he sees his shadow six more weeks of winter and two different groundhog days saw two different things today so what does it mean I have no idea.”

Natty promises to tell listeners all about the event next week and hints that it might be filmed for everyone to watch.
