In this episode of 'Watchers on the Thinking Couch,' hosts Daddy Tim and Uncle Mike embark on a humorous and insightful discussion about the children's show 'Blue's Clues' and its impact on both kids and parents alike. Expanding beyond just a review, they delve into the peculiarities of the show's storyline, including the introduction of new host Josh, the curious living situation of previous hosts, and how Blue's Clues seems to recycle old plots with new settings. They touch upon the afterlife theories, the potentially haunted house, and the show's approach to continuity with its hosts and characters. The conversation also shifts to consider how children's television content consumption has evolved with streaming, noting personal anecdotes and the challenge of dealing with repetitive content as parents. Additionally, they briefly explore other children's shows and propose the idea of starting a dad-themed podcast, all while humorously navigating through the world of being parents who are deeply entrenched in children's programming.Contact: mailbag@watchersonthecouch.comVoicemail: https://www.speakpipe.com/watchersonthecouchPodcast production: Onyx Edge StudiosFollow Us: YouTube | Facebook | Twitter---NOTE: Links below may contain affiliate links which earn us a small commission---Recorded with Riverside.fmHosted by Captivate.fmhttps://watchersonthecouch.com is hosted by DreamHost Tim's Podcast Gear:Microphone SetupShure SM7B https://amzn.to/3eB9SAuBlue Boom Arm https://amzn.to/3CUTpR3Cloudlifter https://amzn.to/3EEDQONRecording InterfaceFocusrite Scarlett 18i8 https://amzn.to/3CXBiKxHeadphonesPresonus HD7 https://amzn.to/3TBN96zWebcamRazer Kiyo Pro https://amzn.to/3T3ni7uMiscStreamdeck https://amzn.to/3Tgc6nK
