    About This Episode

    In this Thanksgiving episode of Bumperpodcast, host Natty Bumpercar welcomes back Turkey, who made memorable appearances the previous year. Turkey has returned with something special to share—a traditional Thanksgiving turkey song that turkeys supposedly sing to express their gratitude during the holiday season. Despite some comedic interruptions and mic mishaps, Natty attempts to facilitate Turkey's musical performance instead of his usual Thanksgiving gratitude segment. The episode features the playful banter and improvisational chaos that Bumperpodcast fans have come to expect, building up to Turkey's much-anticipated song about what turkeys are thankful for.

    “I'm going to turn your mic back on because you being off mic just sounds even more terrible somehow than you being on mic.”

    About This Episode

    In Bumperpodcast episode 111, host Natty Bumpercar celebrates cooking day at headquarters after shelling carrots, shucking eggs, and making fresh butter. Natty shares his philosophy about sweet potatoes maintaining his sweetness level and offers listeners a unique challenge: try eating an entire restaurant meal during the podcast's short runtime. He addresses listener mail asking about Turkey's whereabouts after last week's appearance, though the mysterious character seems to be hiding. This episode features Natty's signature rambling humor and his struggle to pronounce "restaurant," settling on "red turon" instead.

    Memorable Quotes

    “People come up to me and they say hey bumper car you don't seem sweet enough to me and I say well well well that's why I eat a sweet potato every single day.”

    — Natty Bumpercar

    “If you go to a red turon and you order your meal… when that plate hits the table then is when you're gonna press play and then just have at it.”

    “I appreciate that I've never been called a shenanigan meister… it's shenanigan dash meister.”
