On the Overthinking It Podcast, we tackle “Bluey,” that wildly sophisticated adult cartoon masquerading as a kids show about talking dogs.

Episode 811: Stickbird is Goose originally appeared on Overthinking It, the site subjecting the popular culture to a level of scrutiny it probably doesn't deserve. [Latest Posts | Podcast (iTunes Link)]

Pete Fenzel and Mark Lee overthink Bluey, the Australian kids’ show that squeezes every minute of its six-minute episodes for high-end emotional relationship coaching. They dissect how the show runs parallel narratives for both children and adults, its vast gap in raison dêtre with Paw Patrol and kinship with Daniel Tiger, the challenge of parents and children learn from each other, and the hidden semantics of its classical music underscoring.

Bluey Episodes Discussed:

Season 2, Episode 24: Flat Pack
Season 2, Episode 26: Sleepytime
Season 2, Episode 50: Baby Race
Season 3, Episode 41: Stickbird
