Pod Meets World

It’s Thanksgiving, and we’re making the trip from TGIF to to Must See TV for a recap of the beloved Friends episode,  “The One with the Rumor” (which you probably know as the “The One with Brad Pitt.”)   While planning a feast with Ross, Rachel, Chandler, Monica, Phoebe and Joey, the gang tries to figure out which “Friend” reminds them most of Will…and realize there’s only one clear answer.    They also break down why seeing a movie star on TV was such a monumental moment and Rider shares his hot take on Thanksgiving turkey.   So grab a plate with plenty of sides - it’s a Thanksgiving edition of Pod Meets World!   Follow @podmeetsworldshow on Instagram and TikTok!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Matt Johnson is one of Hollywood’s brightest up-and-coming writer / directors with an already long list of creatively inspiring work, but above all else - he’s a Boy Meets World super fan!  Matt joins Pod Meets World to explain how Eric Matthews is to thank for almost everything he’s ever made and why filming his cult classic TV show (and upcoming movie), “Nirvanna The Band the Show,” was only possible in Canada.  Plus, he’s about to make the big budget movie version of something very near and dear to the boys’ hearts - Magic: The Gathering. So it’s time to find out as much as he’s willing to tell us… Alert the press! We think the gang found their new Cory, on an all new Pod Meets World the Interview the Podcast!

It’s the semifinals and ANYTHING could (and did) happen! And thanks to Prince night, Rider has his own shocking revelation - he may like the Jive after all.   We’re pulling for Dylan, but could he pull it together?? Our predictions for who’s going home are getting tougher and tougher, while Will takes us on a journey through this less than intense vocal warm-up routine.   Plus, on top of trying to figure out dancing techniques and judging strategies, the Daniettes dive into the behind the scenes drama from The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives (another show they know absolutely nothing about!)    And Will has to somehow argue the cultural impact of a scrappy little artist named Prince…all on Pod Meets Twirl’d!   Follow @podmeetsworldshow on Instagram and TikTok!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Halloween may be in the rear view, but we’re not ready to give up on the spookiest time of the year. The gang is returning to the TGIF-verse for a rare TV sitcom sequel in the form of  Family Matters, Stevil 2: This Time He’s Not Alone!   How does this second installment hold up to the original? Does it excel with the same fun campy humor or is it bogged down by dummies?   Danielle, Will & Rider celebrate the absurd, but exciting puppet fight, but have some questions about Carl almost being possessed by a…dresser.   And we witness the appearance of an iconic 90s sitcom robe, on another Urkel-sized edition of Pod Meets World!
