About This Episode
In episode 77 of Bumperpodcast, host Natty Bumpercar contemplates the gloomy weather and gets philosophical about the passage of time between episodes. Natty struggles to figure out exactly how many days are in a week and whether to count today when planning the next recording. The lovable puppet host also admits to going blank when asked direct questions about basic facts, even forgetting where shoes are supposed to be. The episode takes an exciting turn when Natty announces the show has gained a truckload of new listeners who have been sending in mail, leading to an enthusiastic mail call segment.
