    Natty Bumpercar: You don't know who gave you that name?

    Emerson: No. Who was it?

    Natty Bumpercar: I mean, I have some ideas on who might have given you the name, but I can't definitively say. What if you did? If I did, I'd get in trouble. Why? Because those are secrets. So your name is Emerson. You sure it's not like elephant? No. Is your name buffalo?

    Emerson: No.

    Natty Bumpercar: Is your name banana?

    Emerson: No.

    Natty Bumpercar: Oh, my goodness. Oh, my goodness. Oh, my goodness gracious. Oh, my goodness gracious. Hey, Emerson.

    Emerson: Hey, Emerson.

    Natty Bumpercar: I want my hat back.

    Emerson: I know that story.

    Natty Bumpercar: Have you seen my hat?

    Emerson: No.

    Natty Bumpercar: Oh, all right. What's the hat do? So, Emerson, tell me about you. This is the first Bumper Podcast since we got rid of Rufus T. Rufus, and we are just hanging out, having a good time. Yeah, because this is really fun. Is this really fun?

    Emerson: Yes.

    Natty Bumpercar: All right. I hope they think it's fun. Don't touch those things. Those are dangerous things up here. So, what do you, tell me about yourself. What have you been up to?

    Emerson: I've been up to playing.

    Natty Bumpercar: You've been up to playing? What have you been playing? 100 years. You've been playing 100 years. How do you play 100 years? Do you know? You get lost in the music, don't you? You like to just sit and listen to the music. That's fine. So… Dad! Oh, don't yell too loud. You're going to hurt the people's ears. Oh. Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Okay. So, what do you, are you, what, did you just start something? Yes. What'd you just start? Went to the beach. You just went to the beach? What'd you do at the beach?

    Emerson: I went in the deep water. You went in the deep water?

    Natty Bumpercar: Did you see any sea monsters? Nope. Thank goodness! That would have been terrible. Yeah. They would have probably eaten you up. Ah! Because you are delicious. No, I'm not. I, yeah, I ate, used to eat your toes. But I just like, want to eat.

    Emerson: You're so good.

    Natty Bumpercar: I'm so good. I'm so good. I'm so good. I'm so good.

    Emerson: I love you. I taste like, um, um, rotten leaves. Ew. And I taste like rotten chicken.

    Emerson: The big one.

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah. The one when it talks? Yeah, those are called waveforms, and so you can see when you talk, those are, those are graphical representations of your, of the sound coming out of your mouth. So that's why when you yell, it's not a good thing. All right, now you're just breathing weird. That's kind of, that's going to creep people out. What? What I was asking, so earlier I was asking, what did you just start? You just started school.

    Emerson: I started school.

    Natty Bumpercar: Are you so excited?

    Emerson: No.

    Natty Bumpercar: You're so smart, though. You're going to do such a great job, right?

    Emerson: Baby butt who? Baby butt in the toilet. Oh, no, no. That's disgusting. Come on.

    Natty Bumpercar: You baby butt in the toilet. Knock, knock. Oh, we got another one? All right. Who is there? Boo-boo. Boo-boo who?

    Emerson: Boo-boo in the toilet and then he farted on. No, this is not the kind of show that. And then he farted. And then he farted. And then he farted in the toilet and then he pooped on someone's face.

    Natty Bumpercar: You're going to get me in trouble. I can't even stand. I'm going to get, I'm going to get in big trouble. This isn't how we talk in the Bumper Podcast. Yes, we do.

    About This Episode

    In this hilarious episode of Bumperpodcast, Natty Bumpercar finds himself in legal hot water when Rufus T. Rufus claims to own the entire podcast due to a contract breach. Rufus insists that because Aloysious J. Pig was doing unauthorized Periscope broadcasts, he now owns all of Natty's intellectual property. Just when things look dire, Doodle Poodle arrives claiming to have taken lawyering classes and offers to help. In a surprising twist, Doodle's unconventional legal tactics involving doodling on the contract somehow invalidate it, freeing Natty from Rufus's claims. The whole ordeal turns out to be what Rufus calls "a finagle," with Doodle Poodle saving the day in the most unexpected way possible.

    Bumpercar does something out of the kindness of his heart – and – our manager is nice and let’s us record an episode about it. This is Bumpercar at his most beardless!

    About This Episode

    In this heartfelt episode of Bumperpodcast, host Natty Bumpercar returns after a week away due to a computer malfunction and shares some personal news. Natty explains his eighteen-hundred-dollar MacBook Pro's logic board failure and his relief that it was covered under warranty. More significantly, he discusses his 95-year-old grandmother's recent fall and broken hip, and the helpless feeling of being far away during her hospitalization. In a touching gesture, Natty decides to shave his five-and-a-half-year beard—something his young children have never seen him without—because his grandmother had expressed strong dislike for it during their recent visit. The episode blends humor with genuine emotion as Natty prepares to surprise his family and send photos to his hospitalized grandmother.

    Aloysious J. Pig: That's the worst plan I ever heard in my life. Well, I mean, it's at least the start of a plan, Pig. You haven't done anything. Oh, I've done a whole lot. I was doing the periscoping, and I got us in trouble.

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah, all right.

    Aloysious J. Pig: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

    Natty Bumpercar: Yeah. All right, well…

    Aloysious J. Pig: Blah, blah, blah, blah.

    Aloysious J. Pig: Yeah.

    Natty Bumpercar: I don't agree with that at all. I don't agree with that one bit. Do you want to go run away? I mean, like, upstairs? Are you done? Yes. Okay. You go do it. You go do it. I'm going to figure out a plan. You go away. See you later. See you later. Mashed potato. All right, guys. Now it's just me and you. And we're going to figure this out. All right? Here's what we're going to do. We're just going to keep recording. We're just going to keep recording pirate podcasts. Pirate bumper podcasts from down here in the basement or from in the car.

    Aloysious J. Pig: Or from my sty. Can I do it from my sty?

    Natty Bumpercar: Listen, pig. I don't know if I'm going to keep you on the team anymore because you kind of have wrecked everything. I ain't wrecked nothing. You wrecked everything. Ah. Rufus T. Rufus shut us down last week. He came in. He was like, no more bumper podcasts. He was like, no more bumper podcasts. Or however he talks. And so yesterday, that's why there wasn't a show. But today there's a show. And I thought my kid had a big. He's like, I got a big plan to fix everything. He didn't. He didn't have a single plan. He didn't have any plan at all. His plan was to go.

    Aloysious J. Pig: That's not a plan. That's just one word.

    Natty Bumpercar: Okay, pig. I got you. So for now, we are a bumper podcast on the run. We are a bumper podcast that is operating underground. That is. It is a pirate. We are a bumper podcast. And I don't know how it's going to turn out. But until we can get this legal document, this contract sorted, this is the only way that I know that I can get you guys episodes. And I don't want to miss episodes. And I'm sure you don't want to miss episodes.

    Aloysious J. Pig: You know what? I kind of enjoyed doing it, too.

    Natty Bumpercar: That's fine, pig. That's fine. Why don't you go do your periscopes and just.

    Aloysious J. Pig: I ain't even done a periscope. It's been like three, four days because I'm too tired at night.

    Natty Bumpercar: You know, you can do them during the day. You can do that in the morning. Like a tea with pig you used to do. That was a good show.

    Aloysious J. Pig: I know. But then I've been sleeping in and then I've been going to bed. I've just been sleepy lately. I think it's the humidity.

    Natty Bumpercar: All right. So pig is dealing with humidity. I'm dealing with Rufus T. Rufus. My kid is dealing with wolves in Minecraft. None of us are in a very good place right now. None of us are in a very good state. But you know what you guys are? You're in a you're in a wonderful state because you are listen, you're pirates.

    Doodle Poodle: Now you're you are pirates and we're going to take this thing back. We're going to write this ship. We're going to take it to the moon. We're going to take it to the limit. We're going to go all the way for the bumper podcast.
