We learn when we fail!!!
In episode 147 of the Bumperpodcast, Robot kicks things off with a lackluster party song that prompts host Natty Bumpercar to offer some constructive criticism. Natty points out Robot's lazy rhyming of "things" with "things" and proceeds to demonstrate his own method for finding rhymes by working through the alphabet. What follows is a hilarious deep dive into Natty's stream-of-consciousness musings about rhyming, the alphabet song, and his inability to recite the alphabet backwards. This short, improvisational episode showcases the show's signature absurdist humor as Natty gets increasingly sidetracked while trying to prove he has "a beautiful mind."
“I'm going to do some stuff and I'm going to do some stuff and then I'm going to do some things and I'm going to rhyme things with things.”
— Natty Bumpercar
“I can't do the alphabet unless I do the song. If I ever had to do the alphabet backwards, I wouldn't be able to even remotely figure out how to do that.”
— Natty Bumpercar
“I can't believe what a beautiful mind I, Natty Bumpercar, have. Let's think of some other words that rhyme with things. Well, of course, there's… I don't have anything.”

Robot: My name is Robot and I like to party. I get good and ready when I go to the party. I do some robot stuff and I do some robot things. And then I wait for you to do some things.
Natty Bumpercar: Wow. Wow, Robot, that was literally the most underwhelming. No, no, no. I'm going to do some stuff and I'm going to do some stuff and then I'm going to do some things and I'm going to rhyme things with things. Like there's a lot of other words that you could have put in there. Rings, brings, sings. Things, yeah, things. There's not a lot of words that rhyme with things. Is that true? I had no idea. Not a lot, no. You ever do that thing where you're trying to rhyme words in a bumper podcast? Hey, what's going on? What's going on, Bumper Podcast? It's me, Natty Bumpercar. And right now I'm trying to figure out how to rhyme words. And so right now we're using the example of things, for instance. So what I like to do is I start with the alphabet, which seems like a legitimately smart and good place to start when you want to make words. And especially if you want to then rhyme those words. So like I'll go like A. Are there any A words? Angs. Angs. No. B. Bangs. Things. Bangs. No. Bings. Bing cherries, I guess. Brings. C. Clings. There's one. See, look at that. This works. A, B, C. A, B, C. That's terrible. I can't do the alphabet unless I do the song. If I ever had to, was required to do the alphabet backwards, I wouldn't be able to even remotely figure out how to do that. I would. But my brain is not capable of such things, and I do not think it's a fair test. Maybe if it's written in front of me, then I could do it. Because I can read, even, you know, backwards. I can read right to left. That's fine. You know, right to left. Yeah. Or if you put the letters in reverse order, starting left to right, that's going to be easier for me. Then my brain is literally just like, I'm going X, W, X, Y, Z. I started with X. Oh, I'm terrible. I can't believe what a brilliant mind I have. I can't believe what a beautiful mind I, Natty Bumpercar, have. Let's think of some other words that rhyme with things. Well, of course, there's… I don't have anything.

Natty Bumpercar is finally back with an all new Bumperpodcast – in which he talks excitedly about where he has been lately – and more importantly … His birthday!
Have you ever had a birthday? Let us know by sending an email to bumperpodcast@nattybumpercar.com
Whoop! Whoop!
In this solo episode, Natty Bumpercar celebrates his birthday in characteristically chaotic fashion. He enthusiastically lists increasingly absurd birthday treats including cake soup, cake float, cake shake, and the tongue-twisting "cake cocktail." Natty reflects on his recent 850-mile road trip into "the belly of the beast," reveals he's recording on a new device that could send the show into space, and shares mundane yet hilarious life updates including eating four pieces of pizza and taking a shower that required removing an "exoskeleton of dirt" built up from fighting evil hordes. The episode showcases Natty's signature stream-of-consciousness comedy style as he invites listeners to join him on his metaphorical birthday cruise.
“I'm gonna have a cake cocktail a cake cocktail is not going to defeat me no not today because it's my birthday and you won't win”
— Natty Bumpercar
“It took me a half an hour just to get through the first layer of dirt. I had actually developed an exoskeleton of dirt which I used to fight off the evil hordes”

Natty Bumpercar celebrates a major milestone as the Bumperpodcast reaches episode 100! In this landmark episode, Natty shares a hilarious story about brushing his dog Irving Brown Sox's teeth after the pup developed a serious case of "yuck mouth." The tale involves a party thrown for Cinnamon the Horse after the classic "why the long face" joke made him sad, only to have Irving's bad breath clear the room. Natty also riffs on needing a new catchphrase and delivers an absurd story about fish playing high school football. It's a characteristically silly and improvisational celebration of 100 episodes of puppet comedy.
“I brushed Irving Brown Sox's teeth today because his mouth, he had a yuck mouth.”
— Natty Bumpercar
“Cinnamon, why the long face? And he was like, that joke makes me sad. And we were like, you know what? We don't want you to be sad. We want to have a party for you.”
— Natty Bumpercar
“I don't know why I keep saying boom. Boom. I don't like boom. I need a new word.”
— Natty Bumpercar

Natty Bumpercar: Yeah, it's like a party whistle. You know why it's like a party whistle? Hold on, I got another party whistle. What happened? What happened? Was there like 20 seconds of silence? Because you know why? Because last week, it was the end. It was the end of the Bumper Podcast. It was the end of the Bumper Podcast in the pre-three-digit era, that is. Boom! Welcome to number 100. This is the 100th Bumper Podcast. I'm Natty Bumper. I'm Natty Bumper Car. This is number 100. This is the Bumper Podcast. You know all about me because I told you all about me a couple of episodes. You know what else about me? I brushed my dog's teeth today. That's right. I brushed Irving Brown Sox's teeth today because his mouth, he had a yuck mouth. Do you remember yuck mouths? They were just like, I got a yuck mouth.
Irving Brown Sox: I got a yuck mouth. I got a yucky, yucky, yucky, yucky yuck mouth. Look at me now, yuck mouth. Look at me now, yuck mouth.
Natty Bumpercar: And I went in there with a toothbrush and I was like, scrub, scrub, scrub. Circles, circles, circles, circles, horizontal, horizontal, horizontal, vertical, vertical, vertical, circles, circles, circles, because literally, he walked into the room where the party was happening and because sometimes we like to have parties around headquarters. All right? Why? Well, let's just say Cinnamon the Horse came in with a very long face. And we were all like, Cinnamon, why the long face? And he was like, that joke makes me sad. And we were like, you know what? We don't want you to be sad. We want to have a party for you. Boom. That's the only reason we need for a party around here. And then Irving Brown Sox walks into the room and starts breathing because that's what dogs do sometimes. He was all like.
Irving Brown Sox: And then.
Natty Bumpercar: The room cleared out. And then it's me. Boom. I don't know why I keep saying boom. Boom. I don't like boom. I need a new word. Blah, blah, blah. And then. Blah, blah, blah. Nah, that sounds like a fish. That sounds like an exclamation a fish would have. Like when a fish high school football game, when the little fish makes the surprise catch in the fish end zone. And like, he goes to spike the ball in front of the stands because everybody's going to love him now. And then out of nowhere, he's all like. Blah blah blah.
HOLY COW! Today is the last day of intern Bamboo’s internship … and everyone at Headquarters probably has a huge surprise in store … Maybe it’s a party?!
You will probably have to listen to the Bumperpodcast to find out!
Whoop-Whoop!

In this chaotic episode of Bumperpodcast, Natty Bumpercar, Robot, and Aloysious J. Pig attempt to throw a goodbye party for intern Bamboo on her last day. The plan falls apart when Bamboo leaves before the party even starts, leaving the three characters standing around with party fixings and no guest of honor. Pig reveals he's not a fan of Robot and tries to spell his way out of an awkward situation. When Bamboo briefly returns, it's only to retrieve her forgotten purse, crushing their party hopes and prompting Robot to desperately beg to leave with her rather than stay with his bumbling co-hosts.
“is there any way if we have this party it could just be you and i hanging out because i'm not a fan of r o b r o i can't spell it but i think you know who i'm pointing at”
— Aloysious J. Pig
“hey bamboo you came back for your party this is so exciting because everybody got together we got stuff and fixings and everything”
— Natty Bumpercar
“no no no no no no no no no no no take me with you don't leave me here with them”
