About this episode

Will Friedle joins Andrea Barber to discuss turning 50 and the significance of celebrating milestones.

Will Friedle (Eric Matthews from Boy Meets World, host of Pod Meets World, Magical Rewind and Pod Meets Twirl’d) joins Andrea Barber for a sweet minisode series (while Jodie is away for a minute) TGIF: Thank Goodness I'm 50. Will reveals why he's throwing himself the senior prom he never got to go to (complete with a 1994 dress code and play list) and how turning 50 gave him a magical new superpower: the ability to stop caring what anyone thinks. This one will make you laugh, cry and feel so much better about your own birthday countdown.
