David Brownfield Meets World
Over the 6 seasons of Pod Meets World, the gang has chatted with a number of different important contributors to the show. They’ve reunited with actors, directors, writers, and even body doubles. But now they’ve struck gold with a brand new perspective: that of a TGIF network executive. David Brownfield was a trusted liaison for BMW at ABC, so boy, do we have a LOT of questions. Was the show always on the bubble? Why did it eventually get cancelled? What happened to Minkus? How do you tell a showrunner they’re not coming back? And how in the world did he ever transition from suit to creative? Plus, we hear stories of working with TV legends like Steve Carrell and Dick Wolf [DUN DUN]! This, and more, on a new decision-making episode of Pod Meets World!! Follow @podmeetsworldshow on Instagram and TikTok!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
