    Doodle Poodle: not what i wanted to have happen it's me don't pull hey don't pull i'm here to help yeah i got what you're doing you love to rhyme do you want to see my i would love to see it of course you want to see my we're on the radio what are you freaking out i don't care

    Natty Bumpercar: how does it even words man what are you doing i just said we're on the radio and it don't make much sense for you to be bringing in well i mean what are you gonna do use descriptive words and be like this yellow on this flower is so yellow that you're not gonna believe uh how yellow it is a bee would fly past this drawing that has a flower and try to pollinate it because that's how but it's not you know you just made a drawing which is cool and everything but again radio audio is a medium audio audio it's not a visual medium so i think we should you should go over there and i should um what should he know for pete's sake crying out loud i just heard

    Turkey: everybody down here and i thought to myself what a better place to live with this video than the color of this house because i can't talk about health health and i can't till this Failure moment fail all of my life no i can't talk about it mission failure i can talk about health in itself is plainly false strindi to be for me than with my friends.

    Unknown: Thank you.

    Robot: Yeah, get it together. I got stuck on friends. Sometimes I get stuck on friends. People say that I get… Okay.

    Natty Bumpercar: Here you go. They don't say you get stuck on friends. Nobody says that. That's not a thing people say. They say that you come and hang around a lot and maybe you don't offer a lot to the conversation, to the situation, if you understand what I'm saying. But they don't say, oh, robot, you know him. He gets stuck on friends. I never heard nobody say that. Never to nobody. Nobody, nobody. Oh! What is it? Hey, I'm back. I'm back. Yep, bro. Get in here. I'm so hungry right now. I can't even deal with this. How do you deal with this gaggle of characters? It's not easy. I'm going to tell you. But so I'm back. And I think the walk did me pretty good. I feel much better about the world. I don't know what happened on the podcast today, but I'm hoping that something happened, that something was said, that it wasn't just a bunch of fighting and people just walking in and walking out, offering nothing to any kind of story, just being there just for the fact that their voices are on the podcast. Because when that happens, I don't like it as much. I feel like there's no depth. Like when there's a little story that everyone is engaging in, I feel like that's a good podcast. That makes sense. And it's International Podcast Day. I don't even know if you guys knew that, but today the whole world is focused on podcasts internationally. So we are going to probably need to, you know, translate this, I'm guessing. I don't know if we know anybody who can translate this for the other countries. And then everyone's just going to love it because it's going to make a lot more sense to people. Although I will say, being someone who does, live in the America, I have a lot of friends who have tried to listen to the podcast and who have said they don't even understand it and they speak of the English. Okay? So if you don't speak the English, then it might make more sense to you. I don't know. I don't know who this makes sense for. I don't know who the target audience is. I don't know who is supposed to be listening to this. But I do know that I hope that we can get more guests on pretty soon and that we can ramp up the call-in number because I really loved it when people were calling in. And we can review more stuff and we can get more commercials on and we can do all the things that we were getting so good at and so happy with with the podcast. I don't know if Pig told you, but man, we've been having so many shows lately. Like we had a show Sunday and we actually filmed something for something else. And then Monday we went to the city and saw a band called St. Etienne, which was really fun. It was a good time. I had something in the city and it was a soup dumpling. So it was these four little dumplings and they were so hot, but they were kind of steamed, but they had soup inside of them and they were tiny so that when you chopstick them into your mouth, you would bite and it would kind of, this explosion of flavor. Like it was scallion. I think there was some ginger. I don't know, but it was, amazing. Like I don't even ever want to eat anything again. Besides that, I was trying to figure out a way if I could get on a dumpling meal plan, but evidently it doesn't exist. And then I had a show Tuesday. I had a show Wednesday. Got a show Friday. Got a show Sunday. And it's a busy time, man. It's a very busy time, but I love it. It's so exciting. And all I have to do is keep my nose above the water. I just have to maintain just a little bit longer. Just to get to the end of the road that I'm on. And then I'm going to stop just singing this song. Thank you guys so much for listening. Sorry it's been so long. We hope to get on again soon. Maybe with some guests. Got to line it up. Got to get it right. Got to do it all tonight. Tonight. Everybody with a one, two, three, international podcaster.

    Unknown: We'll see you guys next time.

    About This Episode

    In this chaotic episode of Bumperpodcast, host Natty Bumpercar is joined by his two young sons for an unpredictable conversation that ranges from cutting down a backyard tree to imaginary dog treat pizza. The boys discuss their father's tree-cutting adventures, their recent trip to the city for a comedy show, and their excitement about joining a pool. The episode features plenty of sibling banter, microphone mishaps, and Oliver's increasingly wild stories about driving dogs and bone guns. Natty struggles to keep the conversation on track while his sons create elaborate fictional scenarios involving their dog Socks eating special pizza and breaking health codes.

I love animals really much like that. I like animals, too.

    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.

    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.

    Natty Bumpercar: Wait, you drove the dog back here? That doesn't make any sense at all. You can't even reach the pedals.
