Danielle Fishel spent her teenage years inside millions of homes, every Friday night, portraying the iconic Topanga Lawrence on the family sitcom, Boy Meets World. From her first kiss to her first haircut – absolutely everything was caught on camera. Thirty years later, she’s come to the realization that numerous generations have witnessed her most formative (and awkward) years – and now she’s looking to turn that spotlight around. “Teen Beat with Danielle Fishel” will find the former child star, current TV director and recent Dancing with the Stars contestant, sitting down with other celebrities to unearth details from their (untelevised) upbringings. Since their first pimple wasn’t highlighted during TGIF programming, the least they can do is talk about it now.  By cracking open their childhood diaries to reveal embarrassing fashion choices, school crushes and dramatic friend fallouts, Danielle isn’t just chasing nostalgia - she’s using the memories as a roadmap to understand who her guests have become and what the future could bring. Danielle Fishel gave you her childhood – now it’s time we hear yours.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It’s hard to discuss the importance and cultural impact of Boy Meets World without mentioning the creative enigma that is Ubaldo, the partying nerd in Season 2’s “The Uninvited.” And now the man behind the character speaks, when Phil Glaser joins Pod Meets World.   All jokes aside, Phil’s journey in child acting began in front of Steven Spielberg as the iconic voice of Fievel Mousekewitz in “An American Tail” and included a shared role on stage with one of our hosts.   He’s since transitioned behind the camera as a producer on movies and hit TV shows like MobLand and Mare of Easttown - but it all began as Ubaldo, the coolest dork in town.   Learn all about this interesting journey and his memories from set, on an all new PMW…   Follow @podmeetsworldshow on Instagram and TikTok!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
