Hey everybody and welcome to Bromming the Death Star
where we ask the important questions like
how would you handle Brom living in your village?
I would not handle it.
I hate Brom.
He upsets me.
It's bad.
It's bad to know about Brom. I got three words for you, Jackson.
Cunts a car.
One quick question.
What is Brum?
He's a car that lives in an English village.
He lives inside the shed of a mechanic or an old man
who lives on a hill outside a town.
And when the mechanic goes to sleep or away,
Brum comes to life and enters the town and solves
minor problems and the town will love him the town know about brum but the mechanic doesn't
or the the old man doesn't and that for me is the most unsettling thing about brum because it's not
just that a car is alive possessed by some kind of devil it's that the whole town knows about it, but nobody will tell the old man.
I have no time for it.
It's fucked.
Okay.
Brum's eyes are headlights, but they blink.
Okay, that's fine.
His number plate is Brum.
That's great.
Yes, absolutely.
There's a personised licence plate,
and he has blinking eyes,
and he fixes problems, solves problems, causes problems.
He fixes problems.
Brum is the story of a small
replica car who ventures out into big town
and his owner isn't looking.
How big is this Brum? He's tiny.
Brum's the size of like a
about that big, size of a small dog.
Okay, see I was more on board when he was
just a car. Now that he is a small car
I don't like it.
That means he can get into my house.
If I have a cat flap he's coming in causing mischief.
Why doesn't he want his owner to know?
Why doesn't he want that old man to know that he's coming alive?
I'm Sass of Brum.
What does Brum think the old man will do
if the old man finds out about Brum's secret?
Why is there only one Brum?
What is Brum?
Brum is the worst thing is there only one Brum? What is Brum?
Brum is the worst thing to ever happen to humanity.
Brum has been around
2002 was series 5. There are 5
series of Brum. Christ.
So Brum is
a half scale replica of a late
1920s Austin 7
chummy convertible.
Goddamn. Wait, there's something called Brum and Franz. Are there further Brums? 1920s Austin 7 chummy convertible god damn
wait there's something called Brum and Franz
are there further Brums
oh thank god they're just chickens
alright so things we know about
Brum he likes to fix problems
he lives in a garage
with other cars that aren't Brum
and can't be Brummed
to define Brumming means to come alive.
Yeah, absolutely.
Brummed into existence.
Does he live in a museum?
That's what I'm reading here.
I think it's just like a guy's shed,
but maybe it's a museum as well.
Because, yeah, it says the owner of a car museum
where Brum lives.
Well, that sounds like a car museum then, Joel Zammett.
Trust whatever you just read
rather than what me and Jackson say. What we say isn't clever. Is this like a car museum then Joel Zammett trust whatever you just read rather than what me and Jackson say
what we say isn't clever
okay
is this like a night at the museum but for one model replica car
it does feel very night at the museum for a replica car yes
here's what I keep thinking about Brom
if I killed Brom what would happen
and follow-up question can I kill Brom
because like I would love to smash brom with a sledgehammer
right but yes will that release something well how about this i know i know you you're you're
you're very bloodlusty for when it comes to i'm anti-brom it's true yes however uh i feel that
that might be unleashing something worse because then what if whatever is possessing that car possesses something else?
So how about we trap Brum in a kind of like, you know,
classic horror film situation where we just have to trap them
and seal it away, and then it's someone else's problem
in a hundred years.
The Brum prison theory that some eldritch devil
has been imprisoned within Brum.
Then why does Brum only do good if it's something so bad in Brom?
Well, I think that is maybe a defence mechanism
so that it kind of befriends people, that they're unassuming.
So when Brom does finally enact his plan,
everyone is unassuming because it's like, brum helped us so they he's lulling
this whole town into a false sense of security either way uh tip it upside down pick it up
upside down it's it's a car does have the crab problem yes it's like a crab or turtle uh i feel
any car really you flip a car it's fucked yeah so what and this is a small car it's fucked. Yeah, so what? And this is a small car. It's as big as a small dog.
So what I would do is...
It's bigger than a small dog.
Don't listen to Jackson.
It's a half-scale replica.
It's half the size of a car.
Is pick this small dog car up.
No!
Flip it over on its back.
And then in like that horror story about that Carnevale uh, Carnevale Italian, uh,
drunk thing. Adam Carnevale, yes.
No, no, you know when he gets him drunk and he
builds like a brick? A cast of Monticello
or whatever. Yeah, a cast of Monticello.
Monte Cristo? Yeah, whatever.
Maybe. Um, uh,
brick this, uh, uh, upside down
car up. Uh,
like that, um,
The telltale knocking or whatever?
No, no, no. Like the train
in
Tom's Tank Engine.
Yeah, it's got a very naughty engine
that I had enough with, so they just
bricked it up.
But I think bricking up Brum
perhaps the best solution
that we have for
this terrible cursed car.
For it enacts its final plan of whatever that might be.
I don't know, but I'm wary and sus.
I'm wary and sus of anything that will help us humanity that is not a human.
It's why I don't like guide dogs.
Yeah, of course.
Absolutely.
Sus of them.
So are we in this situation,
do we just live in the village
or do we run the car museum?
No, we live in Big Town, I thought.
I mean, we could try it either,
but in my mind we lived in Big Town
and the town loved Brum,
but I know I personally don't love Brum.
If you two are Brum fans...
No, no, and I'm pretty mad
you would even suggest such a thing.
I'm a brum chum
this fucking guy so i love that little rascal what how would you deal with brum though what
are you gonna do about brum i would immediately just sit in the car and see what happened
you would become brum dude yeah i'm putting up those like, you know, those like spike like on the road to like, you know, puncture tires.
I'm putting them all around my house.
I don't think Brum has like regular tires that can pop.
That's not fun.
I don't like this.
My one defense is now gone.
I just like the idea, like the mischief in my brain is like this car is alive.
I just want to and it's like doing shit i
would just want to see what it was doing the same way that like i don't know if i knew my dog was
fighting crime i'd probably follow it just to see what it got up to i'll tell you can i give you a
typical day in the life of brum yeah tell me if this is good or bad the farmer or whatever the
car museum owner goes to bed yeah brum Brum's eyes light up. Yep.
They are lit with an eerie, devilish light.
Brum leaves the farm and goes into Big Town.
As he rides through Big Town, people are like,
Brum!
Because they're excited to see him.
Yep.
A jazzy tune plays.
Brum sees a pram that's out of control.
Brum goes in front of the pram and wheels the pram back
to the owner of the pram,
saving the baby.
So you're telling me that Brum
maybe tries to run over a small child?
Okay.
Yeah.
All right.
That's interesting.
A kid loses a balloon.
Brum drives up the stairs of a building
and gets the balloon as it goes up
past the rooftop where Brum is now.
Some other similar good doing by brum
and then as night begins to fall brum drives back to the car museum nestles himself in there
closes his eyes and then as is tradition the car the museum owner comes downstairs and finds a
random object from brum's adventures in the back seat every time and he's like hmm
that's strange here's my theory on what's happening with brum i adventures in the backseat every time. And he's like, hmm, Brum. That's strange. Here's my theory on what's happening with Brum.
I think that the car museum owner knows exactly what's going on.
I think the car museum owner, when he was a young man,
trapped a devil spirit in Brum.
And Brum now goes out and does good.
And when he comes home with a random item, the guy's like,
at least he's not out there killing children like he
used to or whatever maybe now he's got like well now that i've trapped this devil in a car he no
longer has the mind of a devil but the mind of a car that's true and for some reason the mind of a
car wants to help people where the mind of the devil wants to hinder them yeah well the car is
a tool for humanity we use it to get to from a to b or
to move objects and other things from a to b if anything the car is a very helpful thing for
humanity sure as a devil's a devil yeah yeah so maybe the helpfulness of a car has confused the
devil brain and he's now with the car brain being like i know I have to do something to humanity. Maybe it is to help.
I like that in your assessment of it, cars are lawful good, I guess.
And the devil obviously is evil because that is the devil.
Yeah, on the Venn diagram.
Not Venn diagram.
Yeah, no, a Venn diagram.
The Venn diagram of that table.
Devil, car, humanity.
What are we picturing when Dusha sits on Brum?
Because I'm imagining Sits in not on
You can't sit in Brum
Brum's half the size of a car
Look up Brum V Human dude
He's so tiny
He's like a cat
I imagine you
Kind of squatting on Brum with your knees, quite frankly, near your ears.
And your hands with two fingers on the wheel.
That's how I imagine.
See, I imagine Dusha disappearing the moment he sits on Brum.
Consumed by Brum.
Gone to Brum realm forever.
Oh, yeah. Okay. Brum realm forever. Oh, yeah.
Okay. Brom is small
compared to other people. He's tiny.
The only other kind of car that I can think
of that can come alive is
Christine. Yes.
From Stephen King fame.
So how does
Brom relate to Christine
and is this a hell car as well?
Brother and sister.
Yeah. I guess another theory could be that Brom is possessed Christine and is this a hell car as well? Brother and sister. Yeah.
I guess another theory could be that Brom is possessed by a ghost.
That's very possible.
Okay.
To figure out what to do about Brom, first you need to solve the mystery of Brom.
Yeah.
Who is Brom?
What is Brom?
If Brom has been controlled by a ghost, clearly this ghost has unfinished business.
And so with Brum going around this village
trying to help everybody it's the unfinished business and maybe does does brum know that
he's being possessed by a ghost or is the ghost being like i know i have an errand to run i need
to help people yeah very possibly we should test this out by putting salt on the road and seeing
if it kills brum hey maybe see this me, this might be more Brom propaganda,
but maybe Brom is a lost soul,
which is what you were saying,
and Brom is My Name is Erling it
and trying to get into heaven.
My name is Brom,
I'm just trying to be a better person.
I mean, car.
Because if Brom is a soul from a recently deceased,
well, the old man is very...
Recently deceased?
The old man is very old, and he doesn't seem to have a wife.
Okay, so Brom is the old man's dead wife, and every time he...
Who was a real piece of shit whilst alive,
but not enough of a piece of shit that she went straight to hell.
Yeah, instead of going to heaven or hell, she went to car.
And why does she not want to let her former husband know
that she is back from...
Brom's remarried, as Brom.
Well, then again, usually the vows are...
Till death do us part
And now that there's nothing in there
About becoming car
Nothing is stopping Brum from remarrying
You're right
Funerals should state
Also announce that this is a divorce
Why don't they make that clear
What do you mean
Like when you die
You're technically divorcing your husband or wife i mean you know
till death do us part that's an if you die that's a divorce all right and you're dying so you're
initiating the divorce it's just common sense we're also imagine having to give half your stuff
to your dead spouse and you just bury them brave. I could have used that money to pay for everything
now that I'm only on one salary,
but I am technically divorced now.
Into the fucking ground.
Isn't that good?
It's good.
So the Brum ghost theory,
so that would mean that to get rid of,
because my initial,
if I had to get rid of Brum,
because I do,
if I was like,
I need to rid my town of Brom.
Well,
Brom is big enough that I think I could pick him up and throw him in a river.
That would be that.
Definitely in the ocean.
It would never be with Brom ever again.
Because what town is he in or near?
Big town.
Yeah.
It's called big town.
It's in Birmingham,
if that helps.
Is that near the ocean?
Is Birmingham near the ocean?
Yeah.
Great question.
And now a quick word from our sponsors.
Also, did you know that we do too many shows across the Sandspancer Radio Network?
Take Why Am I Sad, a happy little podcast where four friends try their best to stop feeling their worst.
While we often advocate for therapy in the show, you know what's cheaper?
Talking to your mates.
And sometimes that's all you need. Unless you do need therapy, because if you do what's cheaper talking to your mates and sometimes
that's all you need unless you do need therapy because if you do go to therapy therapy's great
so if you want to hear myself chat to my good friends cast george and zoe about our feelings
and the things that are making us sad that week just search for why am i sad on itunes or spotify
or head to our website sanspantsradio.comio.com. There's a lake in Brom, I'm pretty sure.
Does Postman Pat live there too?
No, not at all.
Are you sure?
Yeah, Postman Pat does not live in the same town as Brom.
That's insane.
So Birmingham is right in the middle of the...
It's kind of dead centre of the UK, yeah.
It's kind of dead center of the UK.
The closest water I can find is the Edge Bastion Reserve.
Yes.
Okay.
So let's find out how far that is.
A reservoir, not reserve.
What's wrong with my brain?
I'm trying to look up how to kill a ghost.
Unfortunately, I'm just going to solve it. We're all doing lots and lots of research. How far is Birmingham to look up how to kill a ghost. We're all doing lots and lots of research.
How far is Birmingham to water?
How to kill a ghost?
I think the biggest problem here,
just by reading some synopsis of episodes
when it comes to Brum,
is I feel that there is something going on
in the town of Big Town.
In Brum
and the Naughty Dog in 2001,
Scruffy the dog gets into trouble after
scampering through the big town getting everyone in a terrible tangle and chasing after a flying
hot dog okay something is amiss in the town of big town maybe this goes beyond just brum
where are you getting this list of brum episodes, Zaman? I want to join you on this
deep Brum quest. The Brum wiki
is
Brum and the Airport Adventure
when precious gems are stolen from a celebrity
at the airport. Brum is
soon on the trail of the two
thieves. Oh my god, guys.
Do you know what the original name
for Birmingham was? What?
Brummer Jam
Something is going on
So is Brum one of the original founders of Birmingham?
Is Brum somehow related?
Was Birmingham created to worship Brum?
I think throw the Brum ghost theory out the window
Brum is something eldritch and ancient
Brum is something from before
So it's been summoned by the good town
Of Birmingham
Unbeknownst to the
Birmingham's
It's been around since the middle ages apparently
The term Bromagem
Oh my god
Where's more Brom episodes
Well he has changed models
Oh no That's also bad Where's more Brom episodes? Well, he has changed models.
Oh, no.
That's also bad. So I think we might be onto something here with this eldritch being theory
in that it simply will just keep evolving into its new form
so as to appear unassumed.
Kind of like, you know, those like skinwalkers
or some kind of changeling that will happily, you know,
adopt a form and to kind of likeeling that will happily adopt a form
and to kind of hide in plain sight.
Kind of like the Transformer, if you will.
More than meets the eye.
Yes.
So I think there's a lot more than meets the eye to this particular Brum,
where it is using the energy of Birmingham for some nefarious reason.
I mean, it has to be, right?
Yes. Something is going on.
I'm looking at the first and the last episodes of the Brom.
Wait, that's not the last episode.
There's also Brom's car wash adventure.
Oh, that was part of the CGI reboot.
We don't need to worry about that.
Yeah, so I think what's important is
before we know how to deal with Brom,
we need to know what Brom is,
which is what we stated before.
So this is now investigative journalism.
Yeah, gorgeous.
Here's the summary,
the synopsis of Brum and the Crazy Chair Chase,
the last episode of the live action Brum.
Gorgeous Gordon has ordered a new remote-controlled chair
for his hairdressing salon,
but it turns out to have a mind of its own.
Brum follows it to the big town theme park
where it gets stuck in the roller coaster.
Brum has only seconds to prevent an accident.
Brum saves the day by crashing the chair into a pile of candy floss and saves gordon from
a hair raising incident great pun so brum is not the only alive piece of furniture or or man-made
the only alive man-made creation within the town of brumagen something is going on guys so something with that uh that's probably worth noting is like
does that mean that brum is just malfunctioning and it's like seen as a personality or is this
chair alive and they're seeing it as a malfunction or is it two separate things i don't know if is
this chair sentience different from brum's or is it the same and we just see brum as a being yeah and we
see this chair as a malfunction maybe brum is just not functioning there is an episode where two
children have created a homemade robot that brum then goes and stops so maybe this isn't supernatural
at all maybe this is a situation where this is a town full of science has finally gone too far yeah maybe this is science
reaching its peak new theory the old man is a scientist who made brum the perfect machine
okay but the town is full of scientists who are also creating their own robots but in a bid for
robot supremacy yeah brum must go out and destroy every other robot that comes to life because that seems to be the plot of a lot of these episodes so brum is killing well i was thinking brum's a kaiju
interesting all right i'll allow it so you're working brum uh much like godzilla uh brum comes
out of wherever brum probably drove out of the ocean one day and the old man found it and was like, oh, sweet, new car.
Put it in the thing.
But Brom's existence, kind of the snake that eats its own tail.
Ouroboros Brom.
Absolutely.
Ouroboros Brom.
Brom being a kaiju has awakened other kaijus to fight Brom.
So Brom is sort of king of monsters, like Godzilla style.
And so the robot and the hairdressing chair are your King Ghidorah
and your Mothra.
I think you are definitely right,
but I think if we combine the two theories,
I think that's kind of, I think maybe more what happened.
As opposed from Brom emerging from the ocean,
I think it's a little bit more of science meets occult here.
So we have this idea of
where the museum owner
made Brum like this
kind of thing. And the reason why Brum is like
pretending that he doesn't work
or exist when the museum owner
is around is because he doesn't
want the museum owner to be like, aha, my plan
has worked, and then to
enact upon what that plan might be.
And so I think here it's some kind of dark magic,
kind of a hellboy situation here.
Okay.
Where you've got some kind of weird dark magic
has summoned this creature,
and he's taken the form of Brom.
He's taken the form of the apex predator, Brum.
Yes, Brum.
Absolutely.
And then what's happened here is it's caused a rift
into the owl realm and the supernatural,
and that is causing these other machines to awaken.
Yep.
And Brum being the first one, the hell child,
is trying to stop that he's he's using his maybe his powers for good and stopping these other things uh and causing more havoc
i'm just looking up the sort of uh grand villain or anti-hero of the brumverse this is a character
called the shadow now let me read you the shadows rap sheet four rap sheet. Four counts of theft, one count of robbing,
one count of disrupting, one count of escaping jail,
two counts of assault, one count of trespassing,
and one count of attempted murder on Brom.
Okay, may I just say that The Shadow sounds cool as hell.
Yeah, he loves to...
Attempted murder on Brom.
One count of attempted murder on Brom.
If the laws are saying that there was an attempted murder on Brum,
which means that he's definitely alive and can be killed.
Yeah, he's killable.
Great.
Great news.
Brum put the shadow in jail, though, for life.
Wow.
But the shadow can clearly escape.
Wait, is Brum a cop?
I don't know.
Is Brum the police?
I don't think you can put someone in jail if you're a car.
I don't think that's how it works.
What is the shadow?
Is it just another car?
No, it's a guy.
It's a human being.
It's just a regular dude.
But he's great at disguising himself that's why he's known as
the shadow jackson this rap shit this has revealed something far far far far far more sinister and
more of an anti-theory i feel yeah so we've got an old man a car that sneak or a being that sneaks
out and does justice yeah and a villain under a code name uh-huh uh maybe brom is just
british batman wow that's a take yeah so shadow's a joker brom is yeah uh so the old man is obviously
alfred that one's easy they're the same that's easy to do you know how alfred never knows batman
like alfred goes to bed.
When he comes back, Batman's sitting in his chair like he was
with something from his adventure on his lap.
And Alfred's like, is this ward of mine alive?
I can't tell.
Have you been getting up to adventures, Master Wayne?
Where is this book from the shops from?
And Master Wayne's just like, whoop, whoop, Master Wayne. Where is this book from the shops from? And Master Wayne's just like,
and his eyes glow a little bit,
and he winks at the camera.
I reckon that Master Bruce is alive.
Master Brum.
Master Brum.
Absolutely.
Well, maybe, like, that's just, like,
because obviously Bruce Wayne is Batman's alter ego, where brum's alter ego i guess is just a
car in the shop yeah look that's very fair and then his batman is just the same car but alive
so maybe he's just alfred's just pretending and hoping that people aren't putting the two and two
together that the car that they're seeing brum that they love from the village is the same car
that alfred has in his shop. Maybe Alfred's well aware.
Hey, can I read you just the synopsis of the episode
Brom and the Bank Robbers as written on the brom.fandom.com?
Please do.
Oil! Steal the safe from the thieves!
Rob me off!
Rob me off.
What does that mean?
This feels like a code.
Oil! Steal the safe from the thieves, rob me off.
Rob me off is capitalised.
I think it's worthwhile noting.
This episode is also the first time Brum goes underwater
and it's the first and only time we see a baddie use a bomb.
Don't like the first sentence in that.
Underwater? Oh, no.
By drowning Brum out the window.
Don't like this He can survive
Living as we do
In Melbourne Australia
We were safe from Brum
But he's gonna find out
We were talking shit
And he's gonna come for us
So he's
Clearly a vigilante
Yes
And if he's putting
People in jail
Again
Batman
But
He's clearly
Like
I guess leaving them
For cops
Yeah
Hey look
New theory here.
Just hear me out.
Do we ever see Brum acting, like, alive at the same time
where we see the museum operator also alive?
Oh, my God.
Cool theory.
So he goes to sleep.
Possessor's Brum?
Yeah.
And the whole thing about him being all like,
you know, oh, I don't know that Brum's alive
is actually just a little bit of a wink and a nod to the audience
to kind of like fool us.
Yeah.
Why is the museum owner always going to bed?
It seems like he goes to bed during the day.
That's strange.
Is it a bed or is it some kind of perhaps sci-fi magic machine
which transfers his brainwaves into that of a car?
Let me get in the Brominator and Brominate myself into a Brom.
There's definitely something going wrong here,
and I don't know what it is exactly.
I don't know if this is a naturally occurring phenomenon
or if it is some kind of being from the occult or an eldritch being
or something like that.
I don't know if this is some kind of, I don't know, crime against God, i.e. science,
of this old man controlling Brum.
I like your old man possesses Brum theory the most of any of the Brum ideas we've come up with so far.
Either way, I would not feel very comfortable having Brum in my town.
I don't like the fact that
this old man has this much power that he isn't sharing yeah would you go in brum if you could
though what can he why here's a question if we take joel zammett's possessed brum theory to be
broke what what can the old man do as a miniature car that he cannot do as an old man? As you get older,
your body starts failing
and you can't be as mobile.
But as Brum, he can do and go into places
that the old man can't get into.
Plus it's faster
and he can go underwater.
Underwater, car races,
he can get shot, he can get stabbed.
Yeah. Cars can
survive a lot.
Brum is sort of immortal.
That is true.
Whereas you're right, the old man absolutely isn't. So being Brum would be superior to just remaining a fragile old man.
Yeah, and think about every single fucking Lazarus pit.
Brum's a Lazarus pit, maybe.
You get eternal life in a fucking car and that's the the faustian deal
live forever as a car yeah and if you can live forever and like you want to make a positive
change on the world i guess you would turn to vigilantism i mean i probably wouldn't i'd probably
just watch movies or something but maybe this old man has a better sense of justice or justice in air quotes because vigilanteism is also not justice.
Well, maybe the old man is seeing or he's hearing all these things that are happening and he's like, man, in my youth, I could have done something.
In my youth, I had the wherewithal and the physical prowess to go out and help my community and my town, this town, this big town that I love so much.
But I don't have that anymore.
But I remember reading somewhere in like a book of my forefathers
about summoning the great beast of Brummington.
Yeah, no, what happened?
Yeah, and so this is his way of helping out the town that he loves so much.
This man is a patriot for Brummington or whatever.
It's a double-edged sword for him, though,
because as Batman creates his villains,
I think the moment this old man decided to possess Brum and fight crime,
then Big Town became a hotbed for criminals,
only stealing stuff.
Exactly. It's not too bad.
And occasionally using a bomb.
Or trying to kill Brom.
Absolutely. The Shadow has
stolen the Big Town crown,
so there was royalty in this town.
And a bucket
of money from street performers dressed
as gorillas.
Oh, the Shadow,
you scamp. You're robbing from the rich and the poor you're like a well
you're not like robin hood at all i guess you're just a big cunt so i don't know if i would feel
comfortable with with brum living in my town however i guess i would go to bed at night
feeling safer that there is someone out there looking out for the town's best interest.
And you know what?
I think I've come around.
I think I'm happy that we have this vigilante tiny car
solving crimes and stopping people like the shadow.
And also killing other creatures that are popping up
and becoming alive.
So this isn't such a bad thing.
And maybe, look, it's fine.
I think I have to admit that without Brum, there would be more alive chairs than there are with Brum.
And I don't think that the town would be adequately equipped to kill robots the way Brum can.
So I guess as much as I dislike Brum in theory,
I have to accept that he does more good for big town than bad.
And I'm loathe to admit it, but I think I've come around too.
I have also come around, but I started where you guys ended.
You didn't come around then, did you?
No.
You just stayed in the same place.
Let me fucking finish.
I hate Brom now.
Aww.
Because the shadow...
Okay, he's trying to destroy royalty.
I get it.
Yeah, that's good.
He hates guerrilla street performers.
I wouldn't want to live in a town where there's people dressed as guerrillas.
That's scary.
That's true. I don't think he hates them he's just robbing them and that will encourage them to not do it
again that's true they will leave and yeah brum is a small car that perceives justice and punishes
people by i guess arresting them but being arrested by a car presumably just involves being hit by a car i do enough wrong in my day-to-day life that could be conceived as mischievous enough that
brom would come for me i don't want to be hunted down by a small car i don't like the idea of
living in a town where a car has that much authority that's true who granted brom this Who granted Brum this power? Fuck Brum. I've come back around. Fuck Brum.
The town will be better off without him.
Yeah.
Give me those fucking scary chairs or whatever.
Now that you think about it, Brum is lulling us all into a false sense of security.
So when that time that Brum isn't around and that there are chairs that are alive and attacking us,
we're going to be like, oh, Brum's got this sorted.
You're right.
Nah, fuck Brum right in his stupid eyes.
Let's get him.
Let's throw Brum in a river.
But he can drive underwater.
Upside down.
Let's flip him and then throw him in a river.
Just fill him with bricks.
Take off his wheels.
Yeah.
We'll take Brum into the woods and kill him.
There are a lot of ways to kill a car.
The guillotine should come back solely to kill Brom.
Yeah.
In the middle of town.
That's the way we'll do it.
A public execution of Brom.
Hang Brom.
The next day we will wake up
and the old man will have died
from having his head mysteriously roll off
in the middle of the night.
And we'll be like,
oh my God, he was Brum.
Huh.
But we'll be happy.
Yeah, we'll know.
We'll finally have an answer.
We'll be like, this town is too science-y.
This town's got too big for its britches.
It's inventing chairs that it can kill
and dressing as gorillas for money.
Something needs to humble this town
and nothing will humble them more
than their precious Brum getting guillotined.
humble this town and nothing will humble them more than their precious Brom getting guillotined.
And on that note, I've been
Joel. I've been Jackson. And I've been
Joel. Fuck Brom. Yeah.
Fuck Brom. What a shithead.
I'm gonna kill Brom with my bare fucking hands.
