Doodle Poodle: Hi everybody, it's me, Zoodle Poodle, and I'm here, I'm so excited, let's do the bumper podcast for you today, and what are we doing? Well, I am going to give you the first ever podcast by a poodle who tries to make some doodles. Today, what I'm going to do for you is a mountainscape, so does everybody have their pens? Pencils and pens out?

Unknown: Hello there, Doodle Poodle, it's me, Voiceman.

Doodle Poodle: Oh, hi, Voiceman.

Unknown: Exactly, that's what I say. How are you doing? Good to see you.

Doodle Poodle: Well, it's good to see you too. I didn't know you were going to be here. I had a studio all to myself. I signed up on the call sheet, and it says, Doodle Poodle in the studio. All by himself, today, going to make some doodles, and out here you are.

Unknown: Yes, well, I figured I'd stop by to make sure that everything was going well. So, Doodle Poodle, what will you be doodling today?

Doodle Poodle: Come on, Voiceman, you don't have to do that every time that I'm doodling. Sometimes, a Doodle Poodle. I want to go into the room, buy some soap, and make some drawings, but I have a little hiccup there, sorry.

Unknown: That was not a hiccup, that was clearly a bark, Doodle Poodle. I don't know. Are you okay? And should I leave?

Doodle Poodle: Oh, boy, did you ever just make it uncomfortable?

Unknown: Oh, I didn't mean that. Yeah. No. Oh, I'm sorry. Yeah. Oh, dear.

Doodle Poodle: Um, you know, you can stay if you want to. Really? It's in the corner. Okay.

Unknown: It's a small room. It's a small room.

Doodle Poodle: I need a lot of room, because what I told everybody who was listening today to the Bumper Podcast is that we're going to make some wondrous, fantabulous drawings of all sorts of stuff.

Unknown: Well, I am thrilled to be here, then. I'll just be over in the corner. Oh, now, if you need me, just say, give us a shout, if you need me, okay?

Doodle Poodle: He's still talking. I'll do that. Don't you worry, voice man. If I need you to help me make this drawing, then I'll call you. All right. Pencils out.

About This Episode

In this episode of Bumperpodcast, Natty Bumpercar attempts to perform an improvised song about a bear in underoos, but quickly realizes his songwriting process has gone off the rails. He reflects on his spontaneous approach to songwriting, typically composing the first six to eight words in his head before winging the rest. After admitting the song didn't work out well initially, Natty gives it another try with rhymes about bears, pears, and air. The episode showcases Natty's comedic struggle with impromptu creativity and his honest assessment of his own musical abilities.

Memorable Quotes

“Usually, what I end up doing is I end up writing the first six to twelve, six to eight words, and then seeing if I can just wing it from there. Today, it didn't work out so well.”

— Natty Bumpercar

“I saw a bear. He was over there. He was walking around in his underoos. It was quite a scare.”

— Natty Bumpercar

“When people come up to me and they say, Hey, Bumper Car, I've got a song that I want to sing to you, I say, I don't believe you. I want to see some documentation.”

Sometimes, when people come up to me and they say, Hey, Bumper Car, I've got a song that I want to sing to you. It's a song that I just wrote. You know what I say to them? I say, I don't believe you. I don't believe you just wrote a song for me at all. I want to see some documentation. I want to see some lyric sheets, and I want to see some notes on some pieces of paper, song paper. Is there a name for that stuff? I don't know. I just write songs in my head. Usually, what I end up doing is I end up writing the first six to twelve, six to eight words, and then seeing if I can just wing it from there. Today, it didn't work out so well. I saw a bear. He was over there. He was walking around in his underoos. It was quite a scare. I breathed some air, and then I sat and ate a pear. I walked on over, and I asked that bear if he would enjoy playing truth or dare. I mean, it sounds better now that we kind of, uh, no. Is it a great song? I don't know. Are you going to be walking around today humming about a bear who was over there, who was walking around in his underoos? Quite a scare. I ate a pear. I ate a pear. I don't know. Bummer podcast.
