The Creek (aka A New Zealand Cultural Renaissance)

We're ditching the playground and heading for The Creek - but first, a few more branches on the family tree! Is cousin Rusty's family on the outer with the Heelers, we wonder, or is there another reason they never get invited to family events?

Then who's more scared of the creatures of the creek - is it our kids, or Kate? Snakes are a real and present danger... just like drop-bears, right Bandit?! (Jks, our international listener friends, please come visit!)

Finally, welcome to all the new New Zealanders discovering Bluey now she's on TVNZ - our favourite Kiwi (and Mary's pick for future Bluey romances) Mackenzie will show you around, choice az bro! (Taika Waititi for Mackenzie's dad in S2, please Ludo!)

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!
