Relax (aka Three Seasons and a Movie!)

Dec 21 2024 60 mins  
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 rel

Space (aka We've Needed Some!)

Dec 12 2024 59 mins  
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 Ade

BONUS EP (Bluey's World x Bluey's Brisbane x producer Andrew Kay!)

Nov 12 2024 25 mins  
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

BONUS EP (Our Rug Island Era and JOFF BUSH!)

Oct 24 2024 39 mins  
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 imaginatio

Gotta Be Done's Mary with Bluey's Brisbane at the Markets!

Aug 08 2024 23 mins  
So it's been a while, but when one half of Gotta Be Done sneaks up into Blueyland/ Brisbane... podcast magic happens! Mary caught up with Justin and Lou from Bluey's Brisbane for this fun and frenetic crossover episode, on the for-real-life location of iconic Bluey ep Markets (the West End Markets, every Saturday at Davies Park!) Now in their fourth year of exploring the real life

BONUS EP (Looking for signs with Joe Brumm)

Apr 17 2024 59 mins  
Bluey creator Joe Brumm tells Gotta Be Done how biggest ever Bluey episode The Sign came to be, and what it says about endings, and causes, and unknowable futures.

Gotta Be Done's Mary does TONTS!

Mar 04 2024 88 mins  
So Gotta Be Done has been missing in your podcast feed for a bit (and you better believe Mary and Kate are missing it too!) But of course they haven't stopped talking about Bluey in any/every other aspect of their lives, and for this special crossover, Mary talks about Bluey A LOT. Thank you TONTS host Claire Tonti for sharing the mic, over to her to explain! In a very special epis

BONUS EP (Play, Development, and the Importance of Being Bingo)

Dec 07 2023 44 mins  
It's not often an episode of Gotte Be Done has required reading... but when there's three developmental scientists putting Bluey under the microscope, then of course we're all diving in! Mary's joined in the wagon by Dr Molly Scott, Research Scientist in Playful Learning at Temple University, Aria Gastón-Panthaki, Research Coordinator for Children's Development at Harvard Univers

BONUS EP (Gotta Be Done Back and Bluey Fest!)

Nov 16 2023 40 mins  
Gotta Be Done's been on a break, but Mary and Kate just couldn't keep mum for BLUEY FEST! (For international types, that's the Australian Broadcasting Corporation's celebration of five years since Bluey launched... and the top 100 episodes as voted by Australia!) So, the girls have got the somewhat-broken-down wagon back together, for a lap through the trials of trying to pick top

Pizza Girls (aka We’ve Covered a Lot of Pizza Feelings)

Aug 31 2023 56 mins  
Recently listener Matthew in London emailed Gotta Be Done to ask when the Pizza Girls recap was coming. And Mary and Kate laughed because they'd totally recorded that back in February 2023... and then stopped laughing, because Mary had forgotten to release it. So, strap yourselves in kid, for all the late-summer reminiscing, fresh-new-year-misty-eyed-ness... and Muffin dropping th
