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.

Bluey's Brisbane is the podcast that explores the real life world of your favourite Heeler family.
