    Bumperpodcast 79 – The flies have it

    Things aren’t going well in Headquarters … Maybe you can help us with it – or – maybe you know someone who can help us with the situation … A critter has potentially passed away in the attic …

    And the flies – oh dear goodness graciousness – the flies.

    Someone help … please.

    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.

    Memorable Quotes

    “I came eye to eye mere feet away from a ferocious furry squirrel. I'm the one who left the attic when I saw them and I didn't even turn around I backed slowly down the stairs never breaking eye contact.”

    — Natty Bumpercar

    “The flies they're everywhere they're huge they're winning they're taking over.”

    About This Episode

    In this chaotic episode of Bumperpodcast, Robot confronts an unexpected intruder breathing on the microphone in the podcast lab. Doodle Poodle insists he received a memo inviting him to do a radio show, much to Robot's dismay. The situation escalates as Robot claims he's the only one qualified to send memos and suggests sending Doodle Poodle to a farm. Host Natty Bumpercar arrives to find both characters where they shouldn't be, attempting to restore order while Robot and Doodle Poodle continue their comedic bickering. The episode showcases the improvisational chaos and character conflicts that make Bumperpodcast entertaining.

    Unknown: Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, what are you doing in here?

    Robot: You're not supposed to be in here. You're breathing on the microphone. You're not even saying anything. How did you get in here? Do you have a key? Do you? No. Do you have a key? I don't have. Do you get in here? No. I don't think you do. I don't think you do at all. I don't think you should be in here all day.

    Doodle Poodle: Listen here, robot. I don't know. I was told I got a memo. I got a, uh, voice man gave me a, I got a letter. No. Didn't it say? Hey, doodle-poo, do you want to come and do a radio? Do you want to come and talk on, do you want to do a show on this radio? And I said, well, of course we do, because I love to talk to everybody. Everybody loves when I talk to people.

    Robot: Sometimes.

    Doodle Poodle: No.

    Robot: No. Are you done? Are you quite finished? Because I'm the one who sends the letters around here. The memo. Because I think you must have called it. And I only send memos out to people who are qualified to talk on the microphone. Myself, for instance. Oftentimes, Maddie Bumpercar will let me.

    Natty Bumpercar: Hey, everybody. What? Oh, boy. Uh-oh, indeed. I see two people who were not supposed to be in the room. The lab. In the lab. In the lab room where we fix up and make up and break up and take up the bumper podcast. That's nice rhyme.

    Doodle Poodle: I thought I was supposed to. I don't. I don't want to. It doesn't matter. I got a memo. A memo? I don't know. I got it in my mailbox, and I thought I was supposed to come in and talk to everybody. And I got all excited. Calm down. And I wrote down words. Okay. And I made some doodles for everyone to see, too. Okay. No one can see.

    Robot: Oh, jeez. He's doing it again. He's doing it again. He's breathing on the microphone, and I told him not to breathe on the microphone. I don't think he should even be in headquarters. We should buy him. We should. I don't know. Is there a farm? Is there a farm somewhere where we can put him? No, there's not a farm. I don't think he should be. That's what I'm saying. What do you think? What do you think? I know.

    Doodle Poodle: I like farms. Nope. I kind of like farms. Kind of.

    Natty Bumpercar: Nobody's going to a farm. And, Robot, you have to stop fighting with everyone.

    About This Episode

    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.
