About This Episode

Natty Bumpercar takes the Bumperpodcast on the road in this unique mobile episode. While navigating traffic, stuck behind a bus full of high school teenagers, and using his blinker, Natty attempts to figure out how many days it's been since the last episode. He shares his philosophy about driving wherever the roads take him, debates whether it's been seven or eight days, and teaches listeners the official Bumperpodcast driving song that goes "boom chaka boom." This improvised road trip episode captures Natty talking to himself in the car, confusing day counting, and the chaos of recording a podcast while operating a vehicle.

About This Episode

In this musical episode of Bumperpodcast, Natty Bumpercar embarks on an ambitious medley of classic children's songs and nursery rhymes. From "The Bear Went Over the Mountain" to "The Wheels on the Bus," Natty chains together familiar tunes in increasingly creative and chaotic ways. The episode features references to the farmer in the dell, the muffin man, Old MacDonald, Baa Baa Black Sheep, and many more beloved songs. Throughout the performance, Natty reveals they must keep singing to prevent someone from showing off, and the episode concludes with attempts to sing a baby or "little mountain" to sleep, ending with a rendition of "I Went to the Animal Fair."

Bumperpodcast #25 – All the roses!

It’s the quarter-century mark for the Bumperpodcast!

And so – we do a little looking around – and a little look back . . . Or at least that is what we were planning on doing. But – since everyone had to go and plan for the party – it was just me . . . and that never really works out . . . Does it?!

Maybe I’ll just go and clean the shower.

Boo.

About This Episode

Natty Bumpercar celebrates a milestone in this special 25th episode of the Bumperpodcast! Flying solo for this "epiversary" (episode + anniversary), Natty reflects on the show's journey while the rest of the cast is out planning a secret party. In typical Bumperpodcast fashion, the celebration takes an unexpected turn as Natty rambles about party planning, fancy restaurants, and the time the podcast supposedly threw a party at his house that resulted in… clean dishes and a scrubbed shower? The host contemplates throwing a shower-cleaning party and reaches the "quarter century mark" of episodes in his own unique way.
