Wait. Dad! No, Mum! Mum goes first! Damn it! Damn it! I've failed all my Bloomy fans! He made us do this and then he's cocked it up. Dad. No, Mum. Mum goes first. Damn it. Damn it. I've failed all my Bluey fans. So wait, he made us do this and then he's cocked it up. Dad. Not everyone has a mum and a dad. Is this a stupid... Bingo! Is this a

stupid kid's show you're watching? Dude, this show rules. Also, you're watching this without your children. Bluey. Not too old for it now, they told me. Yeah, a bit old for Bluey. I grew up without a dad. What's that. Quite a lot of kids I knew grew up without a dad. What's that? Quite a lot of kids I knew grew up without a dad. That's not Bluey's fault.

They should bleep it out. Nuclear family in the face. One of my friends has two mums. Yeah, there should be a version when you're watching a kid's show and you choose how many parents you've got and then it cuts them out. It could be mum, mum or mum, dad's an asshole.

Mum, mum, dad's gone. Partner from Tinder. Yeah. Guy mum's sleeping with. Uncle Keith? Step sister? Cool, Keith. Steps. Right. Cat.

So you posted online this week that you are obsessed with the show. I've seen lots of people talk about it. Lots of parents of young kids have talked about Bluey. Yeah, I've heard it's like, it's the show. So it started in 2019 and then over the pandemic it just went crazy. Australian? Australian, yep. It started off small production, Queensland.

Queensland on screen. I saw that fans in America and overseas wanted what the cricket bat was in the background. Yeah, because Dad's always trying to sneak off to watch the cricket. Do they not know what cricket is? No. He's like playing with the kids. Yeah. And then he'll try to like twist the game So he gets a bit of couch time

To watch the cricket But he's like the greatest dad In cartoon history But they just saw this Stick sticking out And thought it was like Some kind of weird sex toy No

Yeah A cricket bat A cricket bat Yeah a paddle A spanking paddle Leather paddle But so I've seen people talk about it And I was like

I'm going to watch one of these Yeah And immediately I fell in love with it And it's the perfect show to watch because it's about six or seven minutes

long per episode to sit down eat my lunch watch an episode of Bluey and then get on with something right because if I sit down

and I watch like I've just finished season one of Mirror of Kingstown oh great show yeah just an insane show so brilliant

but I would sit down and it was hard to get away from and then an hour would be gone. Yeah. And I'd lost valuable time for chores or go for a nap or just get on with the day. So this is perfect.

Sit down and if it's a big lunch or a longer to eat lunch, two episodes of Bluey. And then on with the day. You are such a man child. You are a man child. It's so good. Grow up. And I haven't had a, my wife can't, is a bit like you. She's like, what is, what are you doing this for?

Yeah. I'm like, it rules. A, it rules. B, perfect length. Yeah. And then I've kind of discovered it's also, it's kind of a bit of a therapy for me because the dad has two daughters and he like plays with them all the time. And they like think he's like the most amazing dad ever.

And he's got like an imagination and all this. And like, I realized that I've lost that now because my kids are older. Oh, mate. And they don't think I was as cool as I was and they don't want to play the silly games that we used to play. You wait till they're teenagers.

So it's sort of therapeutic. You're going to be the biggest loser they know. I hope not. I'm going to say, they'll get in the car with their friends and hoon off around the corner and be like, my dad's such an arsehole.

That's going to be you. It will be. They'll be like, hey dad, friends and hoon off around the corner and be like, my dad's such an arsehole. That's going to be you. It will be. It will be. They'll be like, hey, dad, I'm just off to catch the bus. Walk around the corner. They're lying. There's a boy racer there. They're getting in the back and be like, sorry, I'm late.

My dad was being a freaking arsehole. That's what they're doing. Why would they do that? Yeah. Yeah. And then they'll go out and then. I just want to play airplane rides. They don't want to play airplane with you anymore.

They don't want to. Wow. you anymore. They don't want to. Wow, it's going to be a sad day when that happens. And then they'll bring home a partner and they'll be like, oh my God, apologies in advance about my dad. He's a bit of an asshole. Are you crying? No, I had an itchy eye. As I was rolling, I was like, I wonder if this will start me crying.

I don't want to upset you, but I need you to know the reality. Why would they do that? I never said that. No, I know. I said it maybe once. It's girls, man. It's girls. Because the dad only ever wants to protect the girls.

More so than the mum wants to protect the girls. Because we know that we'll be all right. Women know that girls will be all right. The dad's like, I've got to protect my little girls. You've got to protect them. They're not little girls. They're in the back of the boy race. They're probably smoking a durry, mate.

Oh, not a durry. Yeah. I'll smell the durry on them. Or a menthol. They might have a little beautiful taste of minty menthol. I'd be disappointed if they smoked a ciggy, but at least it's not a menthol. And then they'd be like, auntie Hayley gave us a minty menthol. A minty cig.

I'm like, oh, let them off the hook. Yeah, they will. Anyway, good luck with that. No. No, come on. Bluey, I wanted to talk about Bluey. Because all the other parents Were like you gotta watch this episode

You gotta watch this episode Get ready for this episode It'll make you cry Get this And I'm just like I will get there In my own time Over my lunches

What's gonna make you cry Is you walking in And there's a boy There's a boy in the room There's a boy in the room Is there an episode of Bluey Where Bluey Knicks off around the corner

To jump in a bloody Fat ass Nissan Skyline Yeah it's coming And dad's like, Bluey. See, end of season two. My dad's an arsehole. Bluey's like, oh my God, keep driving.

No, Bluey. Oh my God, my dad's such an arsehole. Come back, Bluey. Don't move, Bluey. Hey guys, apparently being the company's most successful podcast isn't enough. They want us to tell people to tell more of their friends. So people are clearly liking it, but we have to tell them to tell more of their friends So people are clearly liking it But we have to tell them to tell others to like it

I would concentrate more on the shitter podcasts That the company makes You know the real losers out there No no no Maybe we should even encourage people to listen To other podcasts that the company makes No but only after ours Yeah nah don't do that

And not more than ours Give us a sexy little review, though.
