    About This Episode

    In Bumperpodcast episode 120, host Natty Bumpercar delivers a hilariously rambling monologue while under the influence of cold medication. Natty describes an unusual mental game involving compressing repeating numbers and letters, using examples like turning "Mississippi" into "MIPS." The episode takes a comedic turn as Natty discusses having "the flu" and confuses it with a fireplace flue, mentioning Robot's habit of rolling newspapers into logs to heat headquarters. This short, stream-of-consciousness episode showcases Natty's delirious humor and self-aware commentary about being incoherent.

    Memorable Quotes

    “I have what's called the flu and I don't even have a chimney. So it's strange that I have to have my flu cleaned.”

    — Natty Bumpercar

    “Can you guys tell that I'm still on cold medication? Because I am.”

    — Natty Bumpercar

    “I have been taking a cold medication and I am incoherent and I am now realizing that, which is unfortunate, not only for me, but also for you.”

    Natty Bumpercar: oh bumper podcast how you doing it's number one two oh i love that i have this thing that i play sometimes where i like to it doesn't i do it with numbers and with letters where like if it if there's like an oh and a one and a two or multiple numbers are the same then i try to compress it down until it's the smallest it can be so like if your number is like uh eight eight seven uh four three six nine whatever like that then what i'll do is i'll be like okay the eights can go into each other so the eight and the eight go down uh and then so the seven can go before the eight and then four six nine okay so i have a six a seven and eight those because there's two eights together and a nine so all that can kind of oh wait a minute that's gonna leave me with a four so then that four what i'm gonna do is oh it's gonna huh i might be left with a four yeah because the four i would sometimes i would divide it into the eights so it would be i'm not making any sense at all am i to you this is something that's weird that i do in my brain and so i'd have the six seven eight nine and i'd put those together gone and then i just have a four but sometimes i'll do as i'll take like the four and i'll put it into the eights so i'm like well eight is divided by four so it'll go in there it's i don't know i don't know i like to get rid of the the the the numbers and i'll do it with letters sometimes too so like if you have like mississippi then i'm like all right all you s's you become one s all you p's you become one P. All you I's, you become one I. So it becomes like M-I-S-P or M-I-P-S, MIPS or MISP. Can you guys tell that I'm still on cold medication? Because I am. I have what's called the flu and I don't even have a chimney. So it's strange that I have to have my flu cleaned. I think what happened is that Robot was, he reads the newspaper every day and he likes to put the spent newspapers into, he rolls them up into logs and he puts them into the fireplace and then he keeps, he sets it on fire and it keeps headquarters warm, which is pretty nice. But the problem is, is that it evidently, it coats the chimney. The flu has to be open and I have the flu and I have been taking a cold medication and I am incoherent and I am now realizing that, which is unfortunate, not only for me, but also for you. It's also kind of ridiculous because the bumper podcast is done.

    About This Episode

    In the first Bumperpodcast episode of 2012, host Natty Bumpercar's recording session is unexpectedly interrupted by Rocco, a maintenance worker who arrives with a work order to fix things around the studio. Chaos ensues when Robot confronts the unauthorized visitor, leading to a tense standoff. Rocco insists he's just doing his job and can't be recorded due to past troubles with his boss, while Robot aggressively defends the studio space. The awkward encounter results in Natty deciding to scrap the entire recording and pretend the bizarre interruption never happened—though of course it did.

    Unknown: No, that's all right, it's morning, it's so morning in here, it's okay, we just gotta…

    Rocco: Oh, I see some red light over here, huh, oh, hey, hold on a second, in a minute, there's

    Robot: a red light on over here, okay, excuse me, excuse me, you are not authorized to be in this room, I will ask you to please exit the facility immediately.

    Rocco: Listen, I don't know who you is, or what you're doing, or why you're talking to me. I'm Robot, and I live here, and I run the show. Oh, well, it's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Robot, my name's Rocco, hey, I'm here to fix some stuff around. Yes. So, please. Hey, uh, hey, guys, it's… Hi, Daddy.

    Natty Bumpercar: What are you guys doing in here? I, uh… We're here to film you. Came in to record the first bumper podcast of the year, and… I don't talk to you, but you can't film me, I talk to you.

    Rocco: Okay, here's the situation, I'm supposed to be doing some work, here's my work order, I come in, and I'm moving stuff around, there's a red light on, I was looking at it, and then all of a sudden, this little, uh, what is it called, robot, I don't know what his name is, comes up to me, gets in my face.

    Robot: Yeah, I got in your face, because you're not supposed to be in here, and I'm gonna get in your face even more if you don't.

    Natty Bumpercar: Whoa, whoa, whoa, okay, okay, okay, hey, Rocco is your name, Robot, I know you, obviously. Hey, hi. Yes. Um, so, I guess, I don't know what's happening, I didn't know that there was a work order being filled out. What's a work order? I don't know who did that. Uh, but anyway, Rocco, I'm Natty, bumper car, this is the bumper podcast, and this is the first one of… This is the first one of 2012, and you were on it, so I guess we're gonna go ahead and say hello, because I certainly can't go back and edit, because that would be work.

    Rocco: This thing is recording, is that what you're telling me? Because I'm not authorized to be on the radio, because maybe I got into some problems, and if my boss hears me sitting around talking on this little microphone, especially to the robot, because he isn't a fan of that type, then, uh, let's just say, some people are gonna be in trouble. And I'm not pointing at myself here, I'm pointing at you.

    Natty Bumpercar: Okay, mm, you actually are pointing at me, but you know, this, mm, why are you pointing at me? It's kind of like a radio show, nobody can see what you're doing, I…

    Rocco: I don't care who can see me, all I care is that you see me, and you see this work order, and you know that I'm doing the job that I came out to do. Of course. Maybe you turn this red light off, and maybe this robot gets out of my face. Robot, stop, stop, robot. And maybe I go on about my… Stop my day. Okay. 2012, what a weird way to start, huh?

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah, I'll say, too. You know what, Rocco, we're just gonna throw this tape away and pretend like this never happened.
