Production assistants might have the toughest job in Hollywood, especially before the internet, but the late nights and early mornings sure did make for some unforgettable stories. The gang is talking to former Boy Meets World PA, and current bigwig TV producer, John Beck, to find out what REALLY happened behind the scenes, from a whole new, entry level position. John reveals how, well before he created "Liv & Maddy," he was “accidentally” hired as a Production Assistant for the show, which he admittedly thought was called “Boy Meets Girl." We hear the highs and the lows, from driving scripts to cast members' houses to getting in trouble for bringing TOO MUCH Koo Koo Roo to the writers room. And with his vast production experience on shows like "Fuller House," "According to Jim" and "That Girl Lay Lay," he shares some invaluable advice for those looking to break into the industry. We’re meeting an unsung hero who climbed his way all the up the industry ladder, with a very familiar start - on an all-new Pod Meets World! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We’ve once again asked for voice memos from YOU, the listeners, about a “very special episode” of Boy Meets World that was so controversial, it was banned from The Disney Channel. And now it’s time to hear your opinions on “If You Can’t Be with the One You Love!” Should it have been banned? Or should it have aired to instill fear in children everywhere? Our hosts seem to be on the same page, but the audience has a wide array of unique takes that just might sway them… Is it a cautionary tale or a college drinking game? Find out when we lift the ban for a new interactive Pod Meets World!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

And Rider shares some of the behind the scenes drama about *how* to handle the complex issue of ‘90s sex and reveals his attempts to change the script.  Plus, they analyze how Cory, a self confessed invisible dork, somehow won Prom King, on a brand new, formally dressed, Pod Meets World.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
