Be Kind, Rewind: “Home” with David Kendall
We’re pulling over on our road trip through season 6 to revisit some of our favorite Boy Meets World episodes, now with special guests! First up, BMW Hall of Fame director David Kendall is here to throw it back to season 2, and just like Shawn knocking on Turner’s door, we’re looking for a place to call “Home.” This is the first episode where David served as the director, writer AND showrunner, so he shares some triple threat BTS secrets about how Shawn’s storyline developed over time. David also helps us understand what makes a truly “good” director, and we get an answer on what REALLY was in the brown bag that Kat left at Turners.

JB Gaynor Meets World
Little orphan Tommy is all grown up and joining the podcast! The gang reconnects with an adult JB Gaynor, best known to BMW fans as little Tommy from Season 6. What was meant to be a one-off guest spot, turned into possibly Eric’s most important story arc in the history of the show, and now it’s time to give JB his flowers. The now scratch golfer shares his memories from set, and how it was much different than working on Frasier. Plus, they revisit his surprise return for Girl Meets World, which apparently features some incredible acting from Danielle. And, we take another lesson from “Will’s Etiquette Corner,” right here on a new Pod Meets World!

TGI – Episode 610 “And In Case I Don’t See Ya”
In a rare move by Boy Meets World writers, they pulled a storyline straight from the big screen for this Season 6 romp, putting Eric right in the middle of “The Truman Show.” Will can perfectly recall a line from an obscure sitcom from the ‘70s, but has no memory of filming this episode! As a result, the gang unpacks why maybe this one’s been erased from the podcast’s most effective brain. Plus, the return of another character who has a familiar name, alongside an unusual outburst of anger from Alan! And did Will experience breaking & entering or just a breaking of etiquette?
