    About This Episode

    In episode 358 of Bumperpodcast, chaos erupts when Natty Bumpercar suddenly loses all memory and doesn't recognize his own show or his best friend Aloysius J. Pig. When lawyer Rufus T. Rufus attempts to claim ownership of the podcast by invoking a legal clause about going "loop-de-loop," Aloysius becomes suspicious. With the help of art therapist Doodle Poodle and his superior canine sense of smell, they discover evidence in the trash: a container of two-year-old broccoli cheese soup with purple felt attached—matching Rufus's jacket. The gang exposes Rufus's scheme to poison Natty and steal the show. This hilarious whodunit adventure features classic Bumperpodcast absurdity as the crew solves the mystery and restores Natty's world.

    Aloysius J. Pig: Where have I… Where am I? Where have I been? I'm so confused. Hey, what's… Pumpercat, what are you doing? And who… What are you doing? Who are you anyway? What do you mean, who am I? What do you mean? What are you doing? Are you talking all weird? I don't know. It's me, your best friend in the whole wide world. It's Aloysius J. Pig. I don't know. What is wrong with you anyways, huh? You got a weird look in your eyes? I don't know. Are you okay? You're sweating a little bit? Are you okay?

    Natty Bumpercar: You're a talking pig. I don't understand it at all. It doesn't make any sense to me. Nothing is making any sense. I'm so confused right now.

    Aloysius J. Pig: Bro, I need you just to relax. This is clearly outside of my pay grade. Hold on one second. I need a little bit of help here. I need a little bit of help here. Pumpercat's gonna loop-de-loop. Now, excuse me. I heard you said you need a little bit of help over here. Now, is this something that a legal guardian of legalities could be assisting? Assistance? And you will, exactly? Is that something that his eye? Mr. Rufus T. Rufus. I may have to help you out as much as I can.

    Natty Bumpercar: Everybody here talks just so much, but I'm so glad that you're here. That pig was just talking at me. He was saying words that I don't understand. Oh, man. I don't know where I am, and I'm really confused. Can I get some help if you could please just help me out, please?

    Aloysius J. Pig: Rufus, you see what I'm talking about? He's gone on a loop-de-loop. He's gone on a loop-de-loop. Yeah, right. He's gone straight loop-de-loop, and that is a legal term. And by the letter of my contract, it says here, let's see, page 14, paragraph 77, addendum 4BXYZ. If Natty Pumpercat ever goes a loop-de-loop, a loop-de-loop, then all of the properties, you understand, are handed over. Handed over? Are passed over. What are you talking about? What do you mean? No, what do you mean by that? No, that's what I'm saying to you. I don't understand. He's fine. Something's just off-kilter. I walked in the room. He seems a little, you know, confused. I'll say confused. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. And maybe, you know, I did say he loop-de-looped, but maybe I didn't know the exact term. I didn't realize that was a legal term. It is. And now you're coming in here. So who exactly does all of this transfer to, huh? Well, now, as the instigator of the implication of his registrar… Now, in the whole legalese terminologies, what I have to tell you, my friend, is that it all actually, in actuality, reverts and processes and proceeds into my account. You understand? I don't… As the legal guardian, the signature, as the writer of the rules, if Natty Pumpercat ipso facto does go on a loop-de-loop, then all of this becomes… …under my transpire so that I can aspire to keep the wheels. I disagree. I'm moving on. You understand? I disagree. I don't know what you're talking about, lawyer Mr. His name is Rufus T. Rufus. But I just, I woke up, I was here, there was a microphone, this pig… That's me. …came in, and I'm still trying to wrap my head around that. And I don't know what, what's a bumper car? You are. I don't know what that is. I don't know what that is. I don't know what that is. Natty Pumpercar, that's you. Okay. Yeah, that's who you are. But I don't, I don't know what's happening, so I'm a little bit confused. I'm a little bit, I don't understand. I think we're all, we all need to calm down. We all need to take a couple of steps back here. I want you to put those legal documents away or I'm gonna, I'm gonna scoot you out of the room. Excuse yourself. I want you just to breathe a little bit. There you go, just breathe. There you go, just breathe. Now breathe a little bit. What, what? Now breathe a little bit. There you go, there you go, okay. I feel better. I've got another idea.

    Doodle Poodle: And, oh, what perfect timing. It's me. You're the person I was just about to come and get. Oh no, oh no. I'm not a person. Did I make you that way? Hup, hup. He's a dog. I'm a dog. I'm a talking dog. No, no, no. I'm a dog who doodles. What? Huh? What?

    Natty Bumpercar: What are you? It's me. Doodle doodle.

    Aloysius J. Pig: I don't know anything. Hup, hup. I don't know what's happening. There's now a talking dog and a talking pig and this. Uh. Okay. I should be breathing. I should be. I can't breathe. Um, so. I'm having a panic attack. I'm having. Naughty. I'm freaking out. I think I need to. Can I just lay down for a second?

    Doodle Poodle: I think you're going to be okay. What? I feel like. Have you gone a little bit loop-de-loop?

    Aloysius J. Pig: That's exactly what I said. There's the word. There's the legal term. There was now three people. Pigs and dogs have all agreed that the loop-de-loop process is in session. No. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. He didn't. He didn't know what he was saying. He's a crazy dog who makes drawings. Just let this leave him be. Now, doodle-poodle. I need you to do some sort of art therapy with Bumpercar because he's confused. He ain't know where he is. He ain't know who I am. He ain't know who you is. He ain't know nothing. All right? So, see if you can get him to do some remembering. Maybe through some drawings or something like that.

    Doodle Poodle: You understand? I understand. That's why I brought you in. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. So, Maddie Bumpercar is your name. And what I want you to do is just start saying some words. Okay. And what I'm going to do is make some doodles. And then I'm going to put all your memory brain marbles back together. And you're going to be totally fine. I swear. Okay.

    Aloysius J. Pig: Okay. Okay. Okay. I'm just going to accept this. Okay. Okay. That is happening. I'm just going to accept that I'm talking to a pig who says he's my best friend. I am. Uh-huh. Yep. And I'm going to accept that there's a dog who's going to try to do some art therapy on me. Perfecto. And we're going to see what happens. Yeah. Okay. Okay. So, start talking. All right. So, I woke up. I woke up here. In this place with the microphones and everything. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. I don't remember anything before I woke up. All right, so listen here. If you don't remember nothing, then this is it. That's the end of the story, and I believe we can put the pencils and the crayons and the cray-pars away because this is a dead end. The man has gone loop-de-loop, and we don't have any repercussions, so we should sign the papers. Just here, why don't you take that crayon and sign this paper, and everything will be done and fine and good and perfect and good and plenty. I don't trust none of this. I don't trust you, Rufus. I don't trust what's happening here. None of this makes no sense. Keep talking to the dog bumper car. We're going to get to the bottom of this. We're going to figure this out. You understand? We're going to get to the bottom of this. But that's everything I remember. I woke up. We're getting some good stuff here. And I was sitting in this chair, and there's a microphone, and the lights are on, and I can't think of anything else. I can't think of anything else. I can't think of anything. Wait. I do remember a smell. So the lights are on. I was sitting here. There was no sound. Okay. But there was an odd smell. Oh. But then you came in, pig. Huh? Pig. Yeah, Aloysius. Okay, and I thought it was maybe you. Wait, what? I'm sorry. I apologize. I bathe. I'm a pig, but I do bathe. You understand? I have my own en suite where I can go in and use the air. It's the restroom. I take showers, everything. We're good. Now, what was this smell? Hold on one second. Where do you think it was coming from? We don't need to worry about no smells. We don't need to. I say the smell is well, and there will dwell. You see? So we don't need to think about any smells or nothing like that. I think this is an open and shut case.

    Doodle Poodle: Well, wait a minute. This is done. Hold on, hold on, hold on. Not only am I a dog that makes doodles, but I'm also just a dog. And I have a really good nose. So I'm just going to smell around and see if I can find this. Wait a minute. What is this?

    Aloysius J. Pig: No. What is this in the trash can? This is inadmissible. This is incontrovertible. This is nothing at all. We should not be digging through the garbage. What are we, garbage men and pigs and dogs? No, no, no, no, no. Away from that garbage can. Come on now. Now, scoot.

    Doodle Poodle: Everybody, scoot.

    Aloysius J. Pig: You scoot.

    Doodle Poodle: You scoot. What is that? That's a container of that old broccoli cheese soup that has been in the freezer for two years.

    Aloysius J. Pig: I don't… Vampica, please tell me you didn't eat that, did you? I don't know. I don't remember, honestly.

    Natty Bumpercar: But I do have a weird taste in my mouth. So maybe I did. But if it was in the freezer for so long,

    Aloysius J. Pig: then why would I have eaten that? I never would have eaten that. That doesn't make any sense at all. Unless… Let me see that container. Holy cannoli. It has got a piece of purple felt on it. I am looking directly across the room at you, Mr. Rufus T. Rufus, wearing a purple felt jacket.

    Doodle Poodle: I believe, sir, that this is an open and shut case. Hold on, guys. You're all talking too quickly, and I'm still trying to draw all this. And I don't just… Hold on. I got… I got a stroke off for Natty's head. And then we were talking about felt. I don't know how to draw fabric, necessarily. And it's just… There's a lot going on right now. So… They like it all to slow down a bit.

    Aloysius J. Pig: Now, Mr. Aloysius J. Big, what I understand that you are saying is that you are pointing at me as the pro-quentin-twatter… Quentin… And it's a word. Pro-quentin-twatter of this crime. You're saying that I am a despicable. But what I want you to realize… Is that when you point your hoof, there are other fingers, hoofs, pointing back… No, I don't understand. That doesn't work. When you point your finger… One for… There's four fingers pointing back at you. But when you point your hoof, it's just kind of a… I guess they're all… So you are. You're all… You're pointing everything at me right now. Yes, indeedy-doodle. I sure am. I'm… So, I… If I'm to understand this correctly…

    Unknown: Whew.

    Aloysius J. Pig: You're my best… You're my best friend, Aloysius J. Pig. You are my lawyer, Rufus T. Rufus. You have papers right there that you're ready for me to sign to turn everything over to you. If I go loop-de-loop… And we find in this trash can a container of some two-year-old soup… That has… The same kind of fabric… That's on your jacket on it. Which makes me think that maybe… You served me this old soup…

    Natty Bumpercar: Which caused me… To go a little bit loop-de-loop. Is that what happened? Are you trying to take over everything?

    Aloysius J. Pig: Are you trying to take over… What is this thing called? This is called a bumper podcast. Yeah, this is called a bumper podcast. And I do believe that I will be making my ex-zones… And I think I would have gotten… Away with it, you understand? If it wasn't for all of these crazy dogs and crazy pigs and whatnot and… Et cetera.

    Doodle Poodle: Well, you better… You better scoot, buddy. You better scoot out of here. Because I don't like what you did to Nanny. And I wasn't even able to make a good drawing. I only got to use my nose. And I'm not nosy, poodle. I'm doodle, poodle.

    Aloysius J. Pig: Wow. This is… This is the world I live in? You guys are going to have to, like, re-educate me and tell me how this stuff works. Because I am so confused right now. And I… I'm really sorry that I forgot you. And that I forgot everything.

    Unknown: And…

    Aloysius J. Pig: Did we record all of this? Yeah, it's basically what we do. We come up with nutty, crazy stuff every couple weeks or so. And then people listen to it and it's all fun. It's all good. You're fine. Don't worry. You're fine. This really isn't that far out of the realm for what we normally do. If I'm to be honest. I absolutely concur on… Well, fine. We told you to scoot. I thought we were all kidding around. I thought we were all joking, etc. I thought we were just playing around. No. No, no, no. All right, everybody. Well, I guess… I guess I'm Natty Bumpercar. And I guess this is the Bumper Podcast. And I hope you had a good time. And I hope you had fun. And I want you to know that I think we're all best friends, right? Yeah. Okay.

    Unknown: We'll see you next time.

    About This Episode

    In episode 220 of Bumperpodcast, Natty Bumpercar discovers a mysteriously lost episode tape while moving boxes. For once, the show actually resolves a storyline quickly instead of letting it drag on for months. When the crew gathers to listen to the recovered tape, they're horrified by what they hear – a terrible soundscape experiment that gives Aloysious J. Pig a furball despite being a pig. Robot denies responsibility, claiming his content is too cool for such a disaster. After much chaos and finger-pointing among the characters, Doodle Poodle finally confesses to creating the awful lost episode.

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

Pig: hey everybody get over here come in real quick this is the craziest thing i ever seen no come here i'm serious come here come here come here come here come here all right what do you mean what's so crazy look at this i mean i ain't been here in a long time on the bumper podcast you know me pig you robots but here we are and evidently bumper car has been sitting here recording episode after episode after episode after episode after episode by himself he's talking to himself exactly the guy's talking to himself stop it all right that's enough robot come on no you got one of your weird little loops where you start saying the same thing over and over and over and over again oh hi guys it's me doodle poodle speaking of crazy oh yeah i was looking

    Doodle Poodle: for a natty bumper car because i wanted to be on the bumper podcast no there's this guy

    Aloysious J. Pig: i don't see him anywhere because i don't see him anywhere anywhere okay listen you doodle go to the corner you robot i don't know turn yourself off or something because as far as i can tell what everybody's been clamoring for anyways is uh is the pig show so we're gonna start calling this uh i think the pig pig pod pig a podcast pig a pig a pig the pig podcast big pig pod bag it's hard to say all right just stop just stop just stop

    Robot: we're not done we're not gonna change the name it's still the bumper podcast and what we are gonna do is try to figure out what happened in that bumper car

    Doodle Poodle: you know for once i really think that the robot has the best idea in the whole world you're the smartest robot on the whole planet all right i think what i'm gonna do is draw a map of all the possibilities perfect okay so the dog is gonna draw something i don't really understand what it's gonna be

    Aloysious J. Pig: uh robot you know what i apologize for trying to take over the whole name of the show what i do as a pig sometimes is i see an opportunity and i rush in i run in because you know what i'm gonna do i'm gonna rise to the top this pig always rises to the top It's because I float, mostly, because I've got a lot of fat. Let's be honest, people.

    Robot: Okay, so this all of a sudden just became a self-help show about Pig and his, well, his Lord Jets. Let's be honest. You haven't stopped eating, I think, since you disappeared. But less about you, more about Daddy Bopper Car.

    Doodle Poodle: Has anybody actually listened to any of the shows that he's been doing? Because, I mean, I don't subscribe on iTunes or listen to the Bopper Podcast every single day. All right. It happens because, I don't know, I, um…

    Aloysious J. Pig: There's no reason for you to, you know, kiss up to Bopper Car, Doodle Poodle, because he's not here. It's you, a dog who likes to draw. Robot. Who's… You know, kind of just a robot. And me, I'm just a pig. You know, that's, I think, what we have, is we have some chemistry. Maybe, and this is just throwing out an idea here, I'm just going to spitball. I'm just going to blue sky an idea with you guys. Hey, what is it? We come up with our own show.

    Robot: Oh, you mean a show where there's a pig, a robot, and a dog who likes to draw, and they talk, and we don't even need Bopper Car? And we don't even need the Bopper Podcast at all?

    Doodle Poodle: That means we don't even need to worry about where Bopper Car is, and we don't need to worry about, you know, finding out where he went to and disappeared to, and, I don't know, the other shows and crazy stuff that he's been talking to himself for a long time, right?

    Aloysious J. Pig: That's absolutely correct. And I think, you know, what we do is we start it off right now. We figure out what our show's going to be called. We figure out what our show's going to talk about. And we grab… We gather our audience, our presence, and, you know, right now, this is where we start the show, guys. Let's start off with a bang!
