Help me to identify the following words?

Question

I just listened to a podcast about cheating. The following are what I don't understand. Those underlined words are not spelt correctly(they are just what I heard).

1.Cheater, cheater, punking(or pumpking) cheater.
2.It's(cheating) like brush on their teeth. It's an eart (or erent or earent).
3.The whole reason we are doing this podcast. I'm gonna rad out on some of my kids.
4.Oh, that's tenning my reputation(meaning it damages my reputation)
5.Macbath homework
6.Don't try to sneak by the trooper.(meaning don't cheat)
7.Don't use your fuss buster to cheat on the speed limit.
8.If he writes words like Bequive (the other host is laughing when hearing this word); he didn't write it. He play-dry-st , he cheated.

If you can guess and figure out any of them, I'd be grateful for your help.

Your transcriptions are really rather awful, and offhand, I cannot understand any of them at all.  Please post a link to the podcast with a list of the times when the phrases occur, and then we may be able to help you.

I can get just a few of these (in red). Post the link, as MrM suggests.

1.Cheater, cheater, punking(or pumpking) cheater.
punking is slang for tricking
2.It's(cheating) like brush on their teeth. It's an eart (or erent or earent). It's an art, like brushing your teeth
3.The whole reason we are doing this podcast. I'm gonna rad out on some of my kids. rat out (snitch, inform on)
4.Oh, that's tenning my reputation(meaning it damages my reputation)
5.Macbath homework
6.Don't try to sneak by the trooper.(meaning don't cheat) refers to a state trooper, ie a highway cop who tries to catch speeding drivers ?
7.Don't use your fuss buster to cheat on the speed limit. a fuzz buster is a device drivers use to detect police radar signals
8.If he writes words like Bequive (the other host is laughing when hearing this word); he didn't write it. He play-dry-st , he cheated. plagiarized

By the way, do you think this podcast is a good material to learn English? Do you think if I continue to listen to this podcast my English will improve?

CharmYouDoes listening to this podcast improve my English?

Listening to any English will improve your English; it is a matter of what is efficient. Transcribing spoken dialogue is one good task—so my answer is 'Yes'.

CharmYouI think it a little bit too tough.

Only you can judge that, but it seems that you got most of the words yourself. In both reading and listening, the optimal difficulty to present a challenge but not an obstacle to learning is if you understand about 70% on first reading or listening, according to Stephen Krashen.
