    Bumperpodcast #205: A real ba-noo situation up on the docks.

    This is by far the most ‘ba-noo’ episode of the Bumperpodcast, ever. There is a dock, a monster, a lottery, winners and losers and much more. There could potentially be a call to the Better Business Bureau, as well. Natty Bumpercar is off.

    About This Episode

    In this hilarious episode of Bumperpodcast, Natty Bumpercar recounts a disastrous vacation experience on a pier where he believes he's being stalked by a terrifying water monster. After waiting four years and winning a lottery for his coveted dock spot, Natty's peaceful meditation plans are derailed by what he's convinced is a crocodile or alligator swimming directly toward him. As his panic escalates and his heart races, he frantically questions why no other pier-goers are reacting to the imminent threat. The episode builds to a comedic reveal that puts Natty's overreaction into perspective.

    Natty Bumpercar: So there I was, so there I was, so there I was, so there I was, so there I was, just sitting there on the edge of the pier, when all of a sudden, what comes up, is it a boat? No, it's not a boat, it's some sort of crocodile, alligator, some sort of snakey, but whatever, a reptile, coming right down to water, right towards where I'm sitting, at the edge of the dock, and so I'm like, what am I supposed to do here? I paid good money to sit on this dock, I paid all the proper fees to rent my spot, and all of a sudden, you're telling me that this is the kind of place I should be? This is the kind of situation where you're gonna have monsters, basically? Monsters? Actual, live monsters, coming down the water, at me? I mean, who am I gonna talk to? Who's your supervisor? Who works here anyway? Where are you guys? And then I look around, I'm at the edge of a dock, there's nobody working down here, it's just a bunch of people sitting. Down, fishing, looking at the water, there's a dude over there, with binoculars, looking at the ocean, thinking he's gonna see some sort of a whale. Good job, beluga, good luck seeing your whale, hope that monster doesn't come and get you, because he's right there! Oh my god, this is like the worst vacation I ever took in my life! I saved up for four years! To get this spot on this pier, I wanted some inner peace, some sanctity, I wanted to meditate, I wanted to be one with the nature, the universe, and all of a sudden, what am I doing? My heart is beating out of my chest, I think I'm starting to hyperventilate a little bit. Oh what, you think I'm overreacting? You think I'm going a little bit crazy? You think that maybe, perhaps? Perhaps? That I'm going over the edge? Oh my friend, oh my friend, oh my friend, I'd say that you are the one who's going a bit bonkers, a bit nuts, a bit banu, that's what we say in my town! Look at that dude, he's going banu, that means he's crazy, and that's you right now! Me, my friend, I'm keeping it real, I'm keeping it steady, I'm keeping it 100! There is a monster! He's floating up at me, right next to the dock now, he's close, he's closer than he was when I started, that's for sure, I don't know if he's in the, uh, I don't know if the water's pushing him my way, I don't know if the tides are shifting maybe, but what I do know, what I do definitely know, is that probably in the next, oh I don't know, two seconds, one, two, boom, monster's gonna come and get me! Eat my foot! I don't know, it's hanging off the dock, he could certainly reach up and grab it if he wanted to, uh, cool, is he gonna pull me under, is he gonna do a crocodile roll, a death roll, I mean that's what they do, this is not a relaxing vacation! I mean, I want my money back, and then what am I gonna do, am I gonna go, if I leave this spot to go and talk to whoever owns this dock, am I gonna lose my spot, is somebody else gonna come and sit in my spot, which I paid for, and then I'm not gonna have my spot anymore? I do not know, but what I do know, is if I don't have a place to sit, after all this time of waiting on the waiting list, and putting my name in, and there was a lottery, and I had to win it, and I did, and I'm sitting here, and now you're gonna take it away from me? This is crazy, it's Banu, this whole thing is Banu, this whole situation, why is nobody else reacting to this thing? Do you guys not see it? Everybody else on the dock, do you not see this thing coming out my neck? Out of the boat? Do you see that thing right over there, it's right in the water, it's gonna come over here, it's looking at us, sniffing in the air, I see him sniffing in the air, trying to come over here, you, with that chum bucket, he's gonna be your chum in just a second, he's gonna come chum up with you real quick, he's gonna eat you, he's gonna eat your baby, he's gonna have babies sit next to you, he's gonna eat it, if that's what they do, what? What are you talking about? I'm looking at the monster right over there, alligator crocodile! He's gonna come over here and take it all down, probably gonna take the whole dock down if we don't watch out, what? You kidding me? Yo, that's just a log?

    About This Episode

    In episode 79 of Bumperpodcast, host Natty Bumpercar faces a crisis at headquarters involving an unwelcome wildlife situation. After encountering two fearsome squirrels in the attic and backing away slowly to maintain eye contact, things take a turn for the worse. A deceased squirrel in the backyard leads to an invasion of flies that threatens to take over the entire headquarters. Natty's comedic panic and increasingly frantic descriptions make this a hilariously gross episode about dealing with nature's less pleasant surprises.
