We continue our celebration of getting halfway through Season 3 and (kinda sorta) approaching the halfway point for recaps, by participating in another fierce competitive draft! This time Danielle, Rider & Will are faced with choosing the best EPISODES they’ve seen so far. Who will score the iconic Shawn episode “The Fugitive??” Will the Pilot episode even get picked?? And will Topanga be in ANY of them?  As is the trend with Pod Meets World, the draft transcends into serious unpacking when the gang confronts their conflicted relationship with acting and, most importantly…their hair. And YOU get to be part of the action! We’re taking your votes on who has the best episode lineup! Who will win this time? Make your choice on Instagram @podmeetsworldshow…See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Danielle, Will and Rider are loading up their Hyundai Tucson for a road trip to Las Vegas! And we’re taking YOU along for the ride - all presented by our good friends at Hyundai. On the journey, the gang participates in a fan Q&A that ranges from their favorite qualities about each other, to embarrassing moments with celebrities, to Will’s imminent hearing loss.And some of the questions are a bigger risk than Danielle at the poker table! So tune in and call Shotgun - because we’re going to Vegas, baby!!!!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

To celebrate the (kind of) half(ish)way point to Season 7 of Boy Meets World, we’re pitting Danielle, Will and Rider against each other to see who can “draft” the best team of BMW characters from the episodes they’ve seen so far. Who will be the #1 pick? Which Matthews parent will go first? And is Yasmine Bleeth even available if she doesn’t remember being on the show?  Things get heated when the gang goes head-to-head-to-head trying to score the most iconic roles for a PERFECT 8-person cast. But the true winner will be chosen by YOU! Which drafted show would you want to see in reality - let us know on Instagram @podmeetsworldshow NOW!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, the hosts share their teenage love for Counting Crows and their experiences meeting the band. They also discuss magician Chef Anton and his unique pool and scuba magic. The conversation touches on a murder case investigation, questions of belief and solid evidence, and the oddity of phone and light switch acting. They also discuss their favorite lines from a conversation, a true crime podcast, and a lost wristwatch incident. The chapter concludes with updates on the podcast, a sponsorship from Hyundai, and ads for other podcasts.

Her name came up so many times on the show, she'd become the perennial "We gotta get her on the pod"  - and now...here she is. Writer / producer Susan Estelle Jansen has arrived to talk about her many contributions and her experiences inside the BMW writers room. And as an integral part of the show's birth and production, we get her perspective and dig even deeper into the Rashomon that was Season 1 politics. Susan would go on to EP Lizzie McGuire (and write the movie), but first she'd be an early contributor to Home Improvement and the brains behind Topanga's famous haircut episode. Susan's credits speak for themselves, but we're happy she came on to do some of the talking too - for the newest episode of Pod Meets World.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We’re hopping in a stretch limo (and then a train) to recap a special (or not so special) New Year’s Eve episode of BMW! Rider holds nothing back when he shares his honest opinion on this stand alone farcical romp, while Danielle is still obsessing over a cringe encounter with a celebrity at a recent convention. The gang shares some behind the scenes stories of how fun this episode was to film…even though it wasn’t filmed in front of a live audience. Also, is Mr. Feeny subway famous? Plus, Danielle once again finds out one of her most used catchphrases IRL originated in a BMW episode. BUCK UP, BUCKERS - it’s a brand new Pod Meets World!!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We all love Boy Meets World, but what would the show be like if you couldn’t hear Feeny’s words of wisdom, the chaos of the halls of John Adams High or the audience swooning over Cory and Topanga?? Sound Mixer Tamara Johnson is an unsung hero from behind the scenes, serving as the sound mixer for EVERY episode of BMW and Girl Meets World! Tamara shares some unbelievable stories about making the show, from hitting the streets to collect authentic sound effects to working with actors on syncing up their “lip flaps.” Plus, we hear the story of “The Laugh Guy,” a legendary contributor the gang didn’t even know existed!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Sure, it's early in the Cory / Topanga relationship, but the gang is already concerned with some immediate red flags.  Cory is insorceled by a classmate named Missy, now interested in forcefully kissing him against his will because he's taken by Topanga. So when he ends up at a faux party thrown to test his loyalty, he finds himself in deep trouble. But the big question: Did he do anything wrong? Will actually LIVED the story from this episode and tells the group how it all went down. Brittany Murphy returns for her last BMW appearance, Bill Daniels is at his best and Will continues to tell everyone he was unlovable as a preteen. All this and a RARE crossover with a DCOM classic “My Date with the President’s Daughter” on the new Pod Meets World...See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It’s time to answer that huge grey cell phone because Zack Morris has arrived at John Adams High! Mark-Paul Gosselaar is here for the crossover you never imagined!! Mark-Paul shares all his memories from the '90s and the similarities between BMW Season 1 and Good Morning, Miss Bliss. How did the blonde hair haunt him? Why did Mario Lopez actually beat him up in a scene? And how does mentioning James Van Der Beek end up being one of the funniest moments in PMW history?  Plus, Rider crashed into Feeny. This episode was recorded on June 22, 2023.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hey, hey we’re Pod Meets World!  It’s a guest star heavy BMW when the writers’ favorite band, The Monkees, swing by to jam, but mysteriously keep one member off camera. Will and Rider detail the pre-show ritual that Eric and Cory stole to debut on-screen, while some VERY cool background actors join the cast to party. Plus, we find out why Will looked SO uncomfortable at an “illegal rave,” even if it never really was a jungle. All this and Mena Suvari as a bouncer - on the newest recap with Danielle, Rider and Will!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
