    About This Episode

    In episode 108 of Bumperpodcast, host Natty Bumpercar records from an emergency bunker after losing power at headquarters. An unexpected October snowstorm caused chaos when snow fell on trees that still had their leaves, resulting in widespread damage from fallen trees and downed power lines. Natty humorously describes spending a night at headquarters listening to trees crack and fall, being unable to drive anywhere due to debris, and now recording the episode on a coffee can. Despite the challenging circumstances, Natty delivers this short update episode about the natural disaster while hoping headquarters won't smell funny by the time power is restored.
