Slide (aka Ensemble Recorders are the Reason)

from Gotta Be Done - A Bluey Podcast · host blueypod

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!
