    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.

    About This Episode

    In this chaotic episode of Bumperpodcast, Natty Bumpercar is in the middle of moving headquarters when Robot decides to start recording without permission. Stressed and overwhelmed with packing boxes, Natty discovers Robot has taken over the podcast on a busy Wednesday. Robot earnestly tries to help by asking what he can do to make Natty's life easier, only to immediately ask if he can take a nap instead. The comedic tension builds as the frazzled Natty struggles to even count to three and hilariously loses patience with his well-meaning but oblivious robotic companion.

    Memorable Quotes

    “I'm going to take a deep breath and count as high as I can count, which is, I think… Three, three, three. I can count. I can count to at least two.”

    — Natty Bumpercar

    “Is there anything that I can do to make your life easier? Because that's what I'm here for… Do you mind if Robot goes and takes a little nap?”

    — Robot

    “You're driving me up the wall, Robot! You're absolutely driving me up the wall today!”

    Robot: Hello, everybody, it's me, Robot, Matty, but the car is moving things, and so he said that I can't…

    Natty Bumpercar: Oh, hey, Robot, what… Get away from him. Come on, get away, get away, get away, get away, get away. Okay, see you later. Talky words, talky words. I'm just like, move this box, pack this box, move this thing, do this thing, and then I come in here to this place, headquarters, soon-to-be-headquarters-old, okay, I'm just going to hold it together, soon-to-be-headquarters-old, and find that Robot is recording a bumper podcast. Yes, I understand it's Wednesday, and my plan was to move a lot of stuff and then to get to it a little bit later, and…

    Robot: What, are you serious? You're coming back? I have a question, I have a very important question, I have a very serious and very important question that I want to ask you, and I want to… Stop!

    Natty Bumpercar: Stop talking.

    Robot: Well, I never will.

    Natty Bumpercar: Well, okay, maybe I was a little… I apologize. Robot, I'm sorry. Yes, that's okay. I'm going to take a deep breath and count as high as I can count, which is, I think… Three, three, three. I can count. I can count to at least two. Three. Sometimes a three, if it's on a good day. Good day. And now, Robot, I say I'm sorry, and I allow you to take the mic. Oh, okay, well, I… Oh, I forgot to count to three.

    Robot: God, it's such a hard day today. I can't even remember to count to three. Mighty bumper car, what I, Robot, was going to ask you was, is there anything that I can do to make your life easier? Well… Because that's what I'm here for. I'm here to help you and make everything… Do you mind if Robot goes and takes a little nap?

    Natty Bumpercar: Are you even… Oh, are you even kidding? Like, are you joking? Are you kidding? I can't even tell sometimes. You… You… You're driving me up the wall, Robot! You're absolutely driving me up the wall today! Oh, Bumper Podcast, what do I do?
