Pod Meets Twirl'd: Survivor 5009
04/24/2026 | 55 mins.
The contestants are dropping like coconuts on Survivor 50, but Will and Rider continue to have what it takes to outwit, outplay and outlast!

Jeff Probst is one of the best hosts in the game, but is he able to juggle also being a “contestant?" Will and Rider dive into the bizarre strategy at play for the coveted rice.

Thanks to Jonathan, Rider has a revelation about a rabbit with pancakes in the moon, and they debate the specific rules of “Ro, Sham, Bo” (or Rock, Paper, Scissors in layman's terms).

Plus, Will reveals he could totally handle small island living, as long as there’s electricity, wifi, plumbing, and access to a 45 minute ferry to Los Angeles, all on this week’s Pod Meets Twirl’d: Seeking Immunity!

Pod Meets Twirl'd: Survivor 5008
04/18/2026 | 59 mins.
The Survivor 50 finale is now more than just a desert island mirage - it's right around the corner! And so Will and Rider are getting ready, still courageously taking on the challenge of recapping every single episode.

They're confused by the voting strategies, but the games still had our hosts on the edge of their seats, sparking the age-old debate of what’s more valuable on the island: brains or brawn?

There’s still no love for Coach, but Will and Rider will miss bizarre monologues and his “inspirational” quotes. Not many can share the wisdom of Sun Tzu AND a random financial advisor in the same thought.

So come join us on Coconut Island, for an all-new Pod Meets Twirl’d: Seeking Immunity!

04/10/2026 | 40 mins.
Will and Rider have once again washed ashore to recap episode 7 of Survivor 50, but would you believe that an episode centered around poetry DIDN’T hook Rider??
We’re venturing into the haiku hammock to hear contestants' compositions of…varying quality, and after getting a lesson on the true rules of prose from trained poet Rider Strong, the guys decide for certain - they are sick of Coach!
The boys also discuss rumors of a nefarious alliance, and Will reveals his first ever “Survivor crush,” this week on Pod Meets Twirl’d: Seeking Immunity!

About Pod Meets Twirl'd

Pod 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. With their podcast, Pod Meets Twirl'd, they decided to share their newfound discovery, and self proclaimed expertise, of unscripted TV and now they'll continue their journey through the genre. The newly formed cultural thought leaders are ready to start recapping, reviewing and rehashing all the hottest reality shows! Even if they've never never seen it before. First up, the show Rider has never heard of and Will THINKS he can win - Traitors!
