You can solve all the problems of the world, and someone will still shout "I don't know what that is!" Enter the Big Blue Guy, and Slide! Kate and Mary wonder if Bingo and Lila's commitment to bug wellbeing is the balm our belligerent world needs right now (although Mary admits they're feeding snails to chooks at her place, so maybe she's contributing to warlike behaviour?) Plus proliferation of Christmas Beetles (Darren Hanlon has a song about them!), encouraging gratitude in your kids, music about problems and also recorders, and Gotta Be Done's renewed quest to recap every episode of Bluey... just eight to go! Also seriously, what is the dynamic (and potential name jealousy?) between Leaficus and Flappy?? Love that both these legends are now recurring characters... may they leaf long and prosper! This episode is sponsored by BabyLove Nappies - check out our Insta for a Long Dog trip down memory lane! ++ Gotta Be Done is ex-journos and Adelaide/ Melbourne mums Kate McMahon and Mary Bolling, as we deep-dive every Bluey episode, with plenty of detours into mama life, childhood memories, and everything else we're bingeing, too!

Like a surf board resolution after a summer holiday, Gotta Be Done is back baby! (And honestly, what's a resolution that hasn't been recycled a few times?!) Show and Tell takes Mary and Kate on a sat-nav-less route from shark-punches and traumatising orca attacks to Facebook Marketplace friends and cautionary tales for course correction... if Statue World doesn't get you first! Plus the still-looong wait til the Bluey movie (August 2027), can the girls knock over the final nine episode recaps on their list before then?! It's (truly this time, showing not telling) Gotta Be Done!

So the Sleepytime score is FINALLY available for our global listening bliss. It's the second single from the whole new Bluey album Up Here, out worldwide on 27 March 2026 and featuring the Queensland Symphony Orchestra and Camerata – Queensland Chamber Orchestra... and all our Bluey music favourites! But did you know, before any of that, Burger Dog was the feelgood hit of mid-2025?! Composed brilliantly by Bluey musician Daniel O'Brien to be "a really annoying song", the newest member of the music team nailed the brief in the best possible way, and has been achieving plenty more besides. Minisode scores, ARIA Awards and APRA Screen Music Awards, Bluey the Movie contributions, distressing his whole neighbourhood as he recorded (and sang!) Burger Dog in his home studio: Dan is a delight, and Mary and Kate loved chatting to him! The interview was recorded a while back now, apologies Dan and Bluey music enthusiasts everywhere... but enjoy this new-to-you release, as Gotta Be Done gets supremely pumped for a new Bluey soundtrack for life! ++ Gotta Be Done is ex-journos and Adelaide/ Melbourne mums Kate McMahon and Mary Bolling, as we deep-dive every Bluey episode, with plenty of detours into mama life, childhood memories, and everything else we're bingeing, too!

From Moana moments on standup paddle boards, to the pipecleaners of the natural world, Lake Currimundi on Queensland's Sunshine Coast has something for everyone - even Stickbirds! Kate and Mary are back and asking the big questions: some universal (what's bugging Bandit?) and some extremely niche (when will Chilli reinvent herself as an Olympic coach??) And some ridiculous, like is Stickbird wearing a tie or a shell-bikini... and is the answer IN A CAKE?? Then there's random new year musings (because this was recorded in January), and listen to the end for a (belated!) big reveal - THE TRUE ORIGINS OF BLUEY'S KID IN SURPRISE! ++ Gotta Be Done is ex-journos and Adelaide/ Melbourne mums Kate McMahon and Mary Bolling, as we deep-dive every Bluey episode, with plenty of detours into mama life, childhood memories, and everything else we're bingeing, too!

It’s the biggest week of Bluey news since… big screens! But the path to Bluey the Movie has been paved with burnout and mental load – or is that just Kate and Mary trying to prepare for Christmas? First up, here’s Joe Brumm’s letter that accompanied the Bluey feature film announcement... no advice yet on how to wait until 2027! Then, is there a way to relax amidst the relentless demands of parenting/ festivities/ life? The girls canvas books that might help – The Wife Drought, Small Habits for a Big Life, and whatever Chilli is reading – but disclaimer, good advice only works when you actually go about it. Plus banging tunes from the Queen of Jazz and the Lord of the Dance (but not really), a Shaker score that fits the Relax message perfectly. And with that, this podcast is relaxing for a bit – hope Verandah Santa remembers all, and Christmas is filled with Simple Gifts (or at least hugs and cuppas!) ++ Gotta Be Done is ex-journos and Adelaide/ Melbourne mums Kate McMahon and Mary Bolling, as we deep-dive every Bluey episode, with plenty of detours into mama life, childhood memories, and everything else we're bingeing, too!

It's been a long time between galaxies for an honest-to-goodness Gotta Be Done recap - but Kate and Mary didn't disappear into a black hole (of parenting) for ever, just for about a year. Space is the mind-bending Bluey episode that brings them back, ready to fix things and figure everything out. But are they chief scientists enough? Plus, radical candor, space destinations in Adelaide and Parkes, and amazing sponsor the Epping Club in Sydney's north-west is doing Bluey Trivia! Book now and have all the answers for 2025 (and do Gotta Be Done proud!) - the family-friendly event on Saturday 25 January at 2pm, what a gift for the Bluey fans in your life! (Oh, and did you know the Bluey website now has a page for every episode?? Here's the Space one!) ++ Gotta Be Done is ex-journos and Adelaide/ Melbourne mums Kate McMahon and Mary Bolling, as we deep-dive every Bluey episode, with plenty of detours into mama life, childhood memories, and everything else we're bingeing, too!

When Kate and Mary from Gotta Be Done and Lou from Bluey's Brisbane sneak along to the opening day of Bluey's World, it's not going to be a subtle affair. And this epic crossover chat, just outside the new Sunshine State landmark/ destination/ (other) happiest place on earth, was next level excitable. It even prompted Bluey's World and Bluey's Big Play producer Andrew Kay to join the fun! Hear first reviews of the one-of-a-kind immersive/ panto/ playful experience at the Northshore Pavilion in Brisbane, Queensland, attempts to divine life advice from fortune cookies and career guidance from creative arts, explainers on why Bluey's World surfaces have to be lickable, and much more! As the secret message in the Narnia cupboard says (IYKYK), "It is a happy talent to know how to play". Ralph Waldo Emerson (and Joe Brumm who added it!) know what they're on about - and we're all happier for it! ++ Gotta Be Done is ex-journos and Adelaide/ Melbourne mums Kate McMahon and Mary Bolling, as we deep-dive every Bluey episode, with plenty of detours into mama life, childhood memories, and everything else we're bingeing, too!

Skip out on work and bring your connector pens - it's RUG ISLAND DAY! The THIRD album from Bluey maestro Joff Bush and his glorious music team is out globally today (25 October 2024) wherever you get your music (and even on vinyl!) So of course Mary and Kate were going to drag out the wagon and skive off work Bandit-style, to ask Joff about how this journey into playful imagination came together (it started with a Cafe play-date, and ended with new friends!) From collaborating with Arnhem Land legends King Stingray, to who you can ask to make octopus sound-effects, how Joe Brumm and Costa Kassab delivered the artistic inspo to tie it all together, and why Muffin deserves her own breakout album - Joff shares the all the antics that made Rug Island such joyful perfection, and what's left over for the next album too! Plus, congrats on new dad life Joff - Gotta Be Done gets the exclusive on Joff-tested tunes to sooth your small people! ++ Gotta Be Done is ex-journos and Adelaide/ Melbourne mums Kate McMahon and Mary Bolling, as we deep-dive every Bluey episode, with plenty of detours into mama life, childhood memories, and everything else we're bingeing, too!
