Summary

We're inviting back some of our favorite guests to hit the rewind button and recap a BMW episode of their choosing - and it’s time to reenter the writer’s room. Mark Blutman co-crafted some of the most iconic episodes in the show’s history and now he's back to enter the ring for “The Thrilla’ in Phila.”

Mark shares the story of how the BMW wrestling match came together and finds time to craft a perfectly executed wrestling promo.

Not only does he have a shocking admission about Cory and Topanga, he also reveals why some of the BMW characters were a bit inconsistent over the years.

It’s No Holds Barred on a new episode of Pod Meets World!
