Joe Brumm (aka The Interview)

When Bluey creator Joe Brumm offered us a hand "if you're ever stumped with a question" - we were never going to stop at just one!

We had the longest list of things we wanted (needed!) to know, and Joe had thoughtful and generous answers for all of them. 

From the challenges of writing new episodes for the millions of fans, to childhood inspiration from across the ditch, and the earliest versions of Bluey (R-rated Peppa Pig, anyone??) - Joe shares plenty of backstories, and takes us behind-the-scenes of new season production. 

And we get super excited about Bluey the Movie, a Wiggly endorsement, and most importantly MERCH! (There's laws about how sharp a toy's ears can be, don't you know?!) 

Of course, there's a few secrets that Joe isn't willing to give away. "You'll have to watch the next season," he says. Um, YES WE THINK WE JUST MIGHT!

Gotta Be Done is ex-journos and Melbourne mums Kate McMahon and Mary Bolling, as we deep-dive on every Bluey episode, with plenty of detours into mama life, childhood memories, and everything else we're bingeing, too!
