    About This Episode

    In this milestone 200th episode of the Bumperpodcast, chaos erupts as Natty Bumpercar returns from his annual Thanksgiving tradition of finding Turkey. Doodle Poodle, Aloysious J. Pig, and Robot attempt to convince Bumpercar they're recording episode 197, not the big 200th, leading to increasingly suspicious behavior and nervous deflections. As the characters struggle to maintain their cover story about a normal Thanksgiving episode, the truth threatens to unravel. The episode captures the improvisational comedy style of the show with characters talking over each other, cracking under pressure, and ultimately fleeing when Bumpercar discovers the truth about what episode they're actually recording.

    Doodle Poodle: Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, are you ready for the 200th episode of the Bumper Podcast?

    Aloysious J. Pig: Hey guys, hey guys, hey, doodle doodle, hey, what's going on? Hey Bumper Car, what's going on now? Hey Bumper Car, how's it going? Play it off guys, play it off. What are you talking about? Okay, hey, what are you doing? It's great to see you. Welcome back to the show. I mean, welcome to the show, not welcome back. No one know you, God, no one know you, missing.

    Natty Bumpercar: Hey, are you okay? You're acting kind of crazy right now. What are you guys doing? Are you just getting everything ready? We're going to do, I think it's episode 197. The big 197 episode right now, right? The big 197.

    Robot: That's what we're doing right now.

    Doodle Poodle: To 197. To 197. Hey, doodle doodle. That's what we're doing. Yeah, 196. Pig, make it fitter, make it better, pig, make it fix it, pig. Doodle doodle, you. Bumper Car came back. Yeah.

    Natty Bumpercar: There he is. Hey, you guys are all acting really weird right now. I don't know what's happening, but I went out for a couple weeks. I apologize, guys, everybody, Bumper Podcast-cateers, but I was out. I was, you know what time of year it is. Yeah. Here it is. It's Thanksgiving, and so every year, what we like to do is we like to go and find our friend, Turkey. Oh, no. Yeah. Not this guy. It's Turkey, yeah.

    Aloysious J. Pig: Oh, Turkey. Oh, it's great to see you again, Turkey. I can't believe you're back again this year. How many years is this now that we've been seeing you? Every year, it seems like for my entire life. Oh, wow. Every year. So that explains everything, everybody. That explains everything. That explains what Bumper Car went. Yeah.

    Robot: Yeah, that explains everything. Yeah, robot. That explains the whole story. You know, nothing weird. No. Nothing strange. Nothing weird going on here at all. Oh, okay. Bumper Car.

    Natty Bumpercar: Wow. So let's, I guess we should probably, I mean, start recording.

    Unknown: I mean, we should, do you guys want to be on the show right now?

    Natty Bumpercar: Do you want to be on the show this year? Or what do you, what should we do? I mean, I mean, it's, it's the Thanksgiving episode. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it's always the Thanksgiving episode, like, you know, tomorrow and I apologize, everybody. Normally what happens is we do a couple of episodes before Thanksgiving with Turkey. So you can really get to know them. And it's, it's, it's a bigger thing, but this year it was, I couldn't find them to be honest. And so I went out and, you know what? Well, I'm not gonna tell you this story right now. Why don't we get everything set up? We're going to do the Bumper, Bumper Podcast right here. The Thanksgiving Bumper Podcast with, it's a jam packed show. We got pigs. It's, uh, Robot, can you look into this? Can you figure out what's wrong? I think something must be messed up, because obviously for the 200th episode, it's going to be something really big and exciting. Yeah, it's not going well. This is just from 197. Oh, no. It's a Thanksgiving, so it's a big episode, but it's not, this is not, you know, the 200th episode. We got two more to go before that, which I hope you guys are excited about. I know I am.

    Doodle Poodle: I just wanted you to know that I'm just a dog who likes to draw, and I don't know, anything about episode numbers, or, or, anything, I don't know nothing about, I don't know anything about, nothing about anything at all, nothing about anything at all.

    Aloysious J. Pig: Hey, listen, Doodlepoodle, you gotta stop what you're doing, what are you doing, Doodlepoodle? You're cracking under pressure. Not that there's any need for pressure, there's no pressure here, no pressure at all. It's a Thanksgiving episode, Robot's looking into the numbers, clearly something's a little bit screwy, wonky on that, and, uh, we're just gonna do a normal Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving podcast right now, buh-buh-podcast right now, everybody, of course.

    Natty Bumpercar: Pig, you are always the voice of reason, I love that what you're, I mean, that makes sense. Alright, how should we start? We should just start the show. Because, I mean, I feel like we've been talking for a while now. Ladies and gentlemen, it's me, Natty Bumpercar, it's the Bumper Podcast, it's the Thanksgiving episode, and, wait, no, no, this isn't, guys, this is the 200th episode, what happened? What happened?

    Bumperpodcast #199: Pig, Robot, and Doodle Poodle are not good at this.

    Pig, Robot, and Doodle Poodle are still running the ship on this episode of the Bumperpodcast … Runnning it right into the ground – that is!

    Do you run? Let us know by sending an email to bumperpodcast@nattybumpercar.com.

    About This Episode

    In episode 199 of Bumperpodcast, Aloysious J. Pig attempts to host alongside Robot and Doodle Poodle while Natty Bumpercar is mysteriously absent. The trio struggles with basic podcast hosting duties as Robot rambles about his soup consumption, Doodle Poodle insists on talking about art and drawing despite never actually drawing, and Pig grows increasingly exasperated with his co-hosts. The episode devolves into chaotic bickering about listener names ("bumper somethings"), whether mittens are an engaging topic, and concerns that Bumpercar may be frozen into an ice cube somewhere in the woods. This improvised episode showcases the puppets' comedic inability to run a show without their usual host.

    Memorable Quotes

    “I'm sitting in a room with a crazy bucket of bolts and a dog who likes to draw and I've never seen him make a drawing. I just hear him talk about drawings all the time.”

    — Aloysious J. Pig

    “Why would he put tears in the name of the people who listen to the show because they're so sad because they're listening to the show?”

    — Doodle Poodle

    “Now you know it sounds terrible this show.”

    Bumperpodcast #185: Blibber. Blubber. Blabber!

    Natty Bumpercar is flummoxed to start the show and have guests show up … It’s a bit of a cacophony … Pig and Robot throw us immediately of of the rails. This show is already broken. Yay!

    Do you have any batteries? Let us know if you missed us by sending an email to bumperpodcast@nattybumpercar.com.

    Blibber. Blabber. Blubber!

    About This Episode

    In this chaotic episode of Bumperpodcast, Natty Bumpercar's plans for a structured comeback show are derailed when Robot unexpectedly returns after being stored in a closet with dead batteries. Robot reveals that someone gave him new batteries, much to Natty's dismay, as he had hoped Robot would stay powered down longer. Meanwhile, Aloysious J. Pig chimes in with his support, though he's dealing with a cold that makes him sound "husky like a dog." The episode devolves into classic Bumperpodcast chaos as the characters bicker about who should be on the show and what makes it entertaining, with Robot getting stuck in binary mode and everyone accusing each other of just doing "blibber blabber blubber."

    Memorable Quotes

    About This Episode

    In this episode of Bumperpodcast, Natty Bumpercar excitedly announces his new obsession with Vine, the six-second looping video platform. He enthusiastically describes how easy it is to lose track of time watching the same video over and over, calculating that watching one Vine for 30 minutes means seeing it 300 times. Natty shares that he's been creating Vines featuring various puppet characters including Pig, the ants, dinosaurs, a little donkey, and even a snapping turtle. He reveals he's already made about 70 Vines and mentions receiving feedback that viewers prefer Pig over the ant drawings, though he's glad Pig wasn't around to hear that validation. The episode showcases Natty's infectious enthusiasm for this new creative outlet.

    Bumperpodcast # 160 – Try, try some more

    Here in Headquarters, everyone is lost and running into walls and spinning around in circles … We make an attempt to jump headfirst back into the waters and end up with a giant bonk on our nose.

    Again, we have a guest host and bedlam and chaos and a bunch of sillies.

    How do you feel about bedlam? Let us know by sending an email to bumperpodcast@nattybumpercar.com.

    There is chaos all around!

    The Bumperpodcast is a free weekly comedy podcast with squeaky clean laughs and jumbles!

    About This Episode

    In this chaotic episode of Bumperpodcast, Natty Bumpercar is absent and Rufus T. Rufus attempts to host with an unusual helper – a young child who isn't particularly interested in cooperating. The little guest repeatedly asks for various characters including "daddy bumper car" and Aloysious J. Pig, while refusing to talk on air. Producer tries to maintain order as Rufus struggles with the challenging co-host situation. When Pig finally arrives, he breaks down the podcast's quality into negative numbers before the young helper goes silent again. This episode showcases the unpredictable and improvisational nature of Bumperpodcast at its most delightfully disastrous.

    Memorable Quotes

    “It's like a broken window that's getting broken up even more.”

    — Rufus T. Rufus

    “I remember when this podcast had absolutely nothing going for it, and now it's got even less. Somehow it went from zero to negative zero.”

    — Aloysious J. Pig

    “Hey, you guys are not doing a very good…”
