On Back to Bluey, dads and Bluey superfans Darin Lundberg and Robert Yaniz Jr. dive headfirst into the phenomenon that is the beloved Australian animated series Bluey.
In each conversation, we’ll discuss a single episode of Bluey and break down what it has to say about parenthood, childhood, and life in general. We believe series creator Joe Brumm and his team have produced something that is just as aspirational and inspirational as it is heartwarming and humorous. So perhaps we all should take a bit of advice from these particular cartoon dogs.
Join us for a series of fun, positive discussions that get to the heart of one of the finest children’s programs in recent memory. Because everything comes back to Bluey.
