This is a massive episode because the opening of Bluey's World in the Brisbane riverside suburb of Hamilton has been massive!
We were lucky enough to attend the official opening of Bluey's world, alongside all of the cast and crew of Bluey, as well as the creatives who have brought the interactive experience to (for) real life.
Lou also caught up with Mary and Kate from the Gotta Be Done podcast on the first day Bluey's World was open to the public, and their podcast record was joined by Andrew Kay.
Andrew is the producer of Bluey's World, and is also the producer of Bluey's Big Play: The Stage Show.
Get tickets for Bluey's World here.
Use a ship tracking app like MarineTraffic to help you catch a CityDog to Bluey's World. You just need the vessel names - Gootcha is Bluey and Kuluwin is Bingo.
Make sure you check out Mary and Kate on the Gotta Be Done podcast, for stacks of fun Bluey recaps and analysis, and follow them on Facebook or Instagram.

Brisbane's iconic CityCats (named so as they are a catamaran) carry locals and visitors up and down the Brisbane River everyday. You've seen the CityCats in the Bluey episodes Spy Game and Ice Cream (and also in our pod artwork).
To celebrate the opening of Bluey's World this week, 2 of the Brisbane CityCats have been transformed into City Dogs, with Bluey and Bingo now sailing up and down the Brisbane River.
A few years ago we spoke to a Brisbane mum who had been petitioning the council to create CityDogs following the devastating Brisbane floods of 2022.
Even though they've been created for a different reason, we cought up with Madonna Stephens to gauge her reaction to the CityDogs!
We also hear from Brisbane Lord Mayor, Adrian Schrinner, as well as Kate O'Conner who is the Director of Brands and Commercial for BBC Studios Australia and New Zealand.

The third Bluey album 'Rug Island' is out now and to celebrate we sat down with Daniel O'Brien who is part of the Bluey music team.
'Rug Island' is themed around play, imagination, adventure and friendship so it was only appropriate the Rug Island became the title track - an episode that sums up all of those ideas.
In this episode we take a dive into the album, and find out more about how the Bluey music team works together.
Dan is a Brisbane based composer whose main focus is music for the screen, but who also writes for choirs and orchestras.
You can stream 'Rug Island' on Spotify, Apple Music, or wherever you listen to your music, or you can visit your favourite record store to pick up the album on orange vinyl!
In Australia, JB Hi-Fi is carrying both the orange vinyl and special edition picture disc.

There's been a ton of Bluey related stuff in the news recently - from the news that Bluey is now the number one show in the US, from Kelly Clarkson giving her entire audience a trip to Brisbane to visit Bluey's world - even the news that American Express named Brisbane as one of their trending travel locations for 2025.
Much of the growth of the show has been driven by adult Bluey fans, many of whom don't even have kids!
How has a (supposedly) show for kids resonated so well with grown ups?
Sarina Petersen will be one of the speakers at the upcoming TEDxQUT event on October 27th.
Sarina is a student of Law and Behavioural Science (Psychology) at QUT and works as part of the in-house legal team of one of Queensland’s largest not-for-profit organisations. She is most interested in social psychology and human behaviour - particularly, the way that these interact and influence one another.
Sarina is a fond viewer of the Brisbane-produced cartoon Bluey and is enthusiastic about analysing its enormous worldwide appeal and cultural impact - particularly its impact on adults.

The Bluey 28 minute special 'The Sign' was everything we hoped it would be; plot twists, a wedding, some great Brisbane locations and a heap of gags for the grown ups.
To celebrate 'The Sign' we spoke to Meg Washington, voice of Bluey's teacher Calypso. Meg is also featured in the special with her song 'Lazarus Drug' bringing the episode to its epic crescendo.
Meg is one of Brisbane's favourite singer songwriters and most versatile vocalists, and has just recently completed a run of shows with Australian symphony orchestras.
Check out the Bluey x Meg Washington music video for 'Lazarus Drug'.
You can also listen to the original version of 'Lazarus Drug' from the album 'Batflowers'.
Follow Meg on Instagram to keep up to date with news, release and tour dates.
One of our favourite articles about 'The Sign' was the piece that Mary Bolling from the Gotta Be Done podcast wrote for the ABC.
Massive props to Brendan from The Hammerbarn Project podcast, who snagged a voice role in 'The Sign'.

It was the cliffhanger that has left Bluey fans shocked and with a ton of questions.
In the episode Ghost Basket, which aired globally on the weekend, it was revealed that the Heelers have put their heritage Queenslander on the market.
In classic Bluey style though, the very next day a listing appeared on the Domain website for the Heeler house, describing it as a 'quaint, animated family home'.
"“Illustrated lovingly at the end of a cul-de-sac, this house sits atop a hill with views of Mount Coot-tha. This 3 bedroom, 4 (ish) bathroom home boasts of work from home spaces, lovely period floorboards and mysterious hallways that don’t logically seem to join spaces together but always feel cohesive and purposeful. Perfect for endless play and games with the family.”
Ludo Studio said in a statement: “Bluey’s home is where our story begins and we’re excited to share next week if it’s where our story ends. The Heeler’s home is another character that we love and care about as much as The Heeler’s themselves."
To find out if it's a good time to sell in Brisbane, and what kind of price tag the Heeler home would fetch, we spoke to Von Barnes of Pinnacle Properties, based in Brisbane's inner north-west.
So all will be revealed this weekend with the feature length, 28 minute episode 'The Sign', which airs at 8am on ABC Kids and ABC iview in Australia, Sunday April 14.
'The Sign' also will be available to view globally on Disney+.

We've been fascinated by the success of Bluey in the United States - how did a show about talking dogs from Brisbane become one of the most viewed shows in the US?
Kyle Thompson got in touch with us after he met Dave McCormack (Bandit) and Melanie Zanetti (Chilli) at the Twin Cities Con.
Ahead of the very first global Bluey release dates, and Bluey's feature length episode The Sign, we thought we'd sit down with Kyle to find out more about what our American friends think about the juggernaut from down under!
