Pod Meets World

Danielle is joined by a young (and tall) reality TV star who turned his reputation as an “f boy” into that of a more evolved bachelor looking to settle down. He WAS “Too Hot to Handle, but now Harry Jowsey is “boyfriend material.”   Netflix’s next leading man chats all about his awkward teen years, while we get a rundown on the Down Under hot spots which served as the possible gateway to his unscripted stardom.   Plus, we follow Harry’s journey to traditional acting and how he’s now baring it all (emotionally) on his new show, “Let’s Marry Harry.” It’s a new, and hip, episode of “Teen Beat!”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We couldn’t march through the final season of Boy Meets World without catching up with podcast, and host, favorite - Jeff Menell. The  writer / producer, who was around for every BMW episode ever filmed, is back to hang out and shed some light on how, and why, this last batch of episodes were made.    He reveals his favorite unsung member of the writer’s room and how a chicken suit may have forced him out the door.   The gang finds out the truth behind the final season writing process, which may have involved more tennis rackets than script pages.    Plus, we revisit the infamous “couch scene” to find out exactly what was supposed to happen, and how does a case of the hiccups force you to  miss a holiday party?    Celebrate all this is Menell - on a new Pod Meets World!

It’s only episode two of Survivor 50, and alliances are already taking shape! Will and Rider are quickly becoming Island Experts - but the game still has a few lessons in store.   A contestant was medically pulled and another was overcome with emotion, so can our hosts still find a way to connect with the cast??    It seems one of the most important skills you can have is tying (and untying) a knot, and Will discovers the power of playing dirty. It’s time to return to the tribal council on this week’s Pod Meets Twirl’d: Seeking Immunity!   And get ready for Pod Meets Twirl’d: Seeking Immunity for Survivor 50!!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ever heard of "married couple dorms?" Well, neither have the hosts. But in this Season 7 recap, the gang will still try and hang on to any shred of the honeymoon phase as Cory and Topanga start their lives and husband and wife. The couple is on the search for housing and thanks to some tough parental love, find themselves living with some bugs. Will teaches us about a lesser-known pool game that made its way from backstage to an Eric and Jack storyline and we confirm a theory first explored by Alvin and the Chipmunks: everything is better when you add triplets!  It's a brand new recap on Pod Meets World!

You may think you know Lala Kent from watching her on Vanderpump Rules or The Valley, but Danielle is going way back in time to learn about “Lauren from Utah.”   Lala shares what it was growing up outside the LDS Church and we hear her thoughts on the rise of Mormons on reality TV.   And nothing is off limits, including a casual chat about boob jobs and her unlikely friendship with Ambyr Childers, which started from their scandal filled history with an ex.    You’ll be shocked to find out how much Lala and Danielle have in common, from experimental beauty treatments to a passion for Air Jordans, all on this week’s new Teen Beat!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

When it comes to Boy Meets World, even our memories are draped in oversized flannels, wool blazers with elbow patches and vests layered over short sleeve shirts layered over long sleeve shirts. And one talented crew member to thank for those decisions in fashion is Emmy-nominated costumer Julie Yang Silver.   The gang catches up with their pal from the wardrobe department to talk all about her legendary career amongst the clothing racks and their memories of hanging out in her trailer in between takes.   Julie also shares her thoughts on the problematic clothing decisions for Danielle in Season 7 and some BTS moments from her time in Vegas for the movie Ocean’s Eleven, and in a galaxy far, far away for The Mandalorian.   Great wardrobe never goes out of style!

Will and Rider’s recap of the monumental season premiere of Survivor 50 continues!    They’re not competing in Fiji, but they are facing a challenge of their own; Can they make it through a 3-HOUR episode??   Some familiar faces return to the island, and Rider has some thoughts on how the 50th season might play out, which includes one player he CANNOT stand.    Plus, Rider reveals how he’d play the game if he was ever cast - something he’s thought about a lot!    So start a fire and retrieve the key for the conclusion of the first ever Pod Meets Twirl’d: Seeking Immunity!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

They’ve cha cha’d across the ballroom and been faithful in a castle, but can Will & Rider outwit, outplay and outlast as they take the challenge of Survivor season 50?   Will’s ONLY seen the inaugural season, 26 years ago, but Rider is a longtime diehard, so could either of our hosts actually last for 20 days on the island??   Either way, Rider fills in Will on what he’s missed over the past 49 seasons, while they both give flowers to a true master of the hosting craft: Jeff Probst.    And they can’t tackle a 3-hour premiere with just one episode, so don’t miss the second part of the first Pod Meets Twirl’d Seeking Immunity, because the tribe has spoken!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
