Pod Meets World

Pod Meets World is a rewatch podcast hosted by Rider Strong, Danielle Fishel, and Will Friedle.

[5] Avery Thompson of Hollywood Life called it "the podcast we didn't know we needed.

"[6] The podcast gained a bit of controversy in February 2024 on their episode discussing guest star and crew member Brian Peck, a convicted sex offender.

As revealed in the docuseries Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV, Friedle and Strong were amongst the public figures who wrote letters of support for probation during Peck’s 2004 trial regarding allegations of child sexual abuse.

Although both have stated regret for their support at the time, many criticized them for this for not giving a direct apology to the victim, who was later revealed to be former child star and teen idol Drake Bell.
