Pod Meets Twirl'd
iHeartPodcastsPod Meets World's Will Friedle & Rider Strong were sitcom stars 30 years ago. The concept of reality TV is honestly pretty foreign to them. But when their best friend Danielle Fishel competed on Dancing with the Stars in 2025, the boys committed to watching their first TV dance competition, and quickly became addicted. And undeniable experts. That is, if you ask them.

I love Will and Rider together, Dancing with the Stars was great and their commentary on the Traitors was great but I don’t watch Survivor and don’t have that channel.

I watch DWTS and Traitors, so this has been one of my favorite pods for a while. Chad Kultgen’s podcasts are some of my other favorites, so I absolutely loved and enjoyed the intersection this week. Looking forward to Survivor!
