Things on the Pod Meets World podcast got a bit tense this week after Danielle Fishel got into a heated exchange with special guest and Boy Meets World co-star Maitland Ward.

On the February 23 episode, Fishel, who co-hosts the podcast alongside fellow Boy Meets World alums Rider Strong and Will Friedle, was chatting with the actress-turned-adult film star when she bluntly asked Ward, "Do you hate us?" The burning question has apparently been on her mind for years and, based on Ward's response, the feeling has been mutual.

"No, I do not hate you," she replied. "I think that you hate me because you wouldn't speak to me on Girl Meets World and that was hurtful."

Ward added that she felt hostility from Fishel while on set of the Boy Meets World spinoff, which aired from 2014 to 2017.

"You had an attitude about it. There was some beef between us, and I didn't get it. Maybe I picked up the wrong signals but definitely there was some sort of weirdness there," she said, adding, "I didn't know if you thought I was trying to steal attention... I was genuinely confused why we wouldn't be good."

For her part, Fishel said she doesn't recall having any problems with her co-star and claimed that filming the sequel series was "very difficult" for her and that "the memories we have of the fun set of Boy Meets World were not the memories or the fun set of Girl Meets World... It was a rater tumultuous place."

According to Page Six, the pair have seemingly been on the outs since Ward attempted to send a heartfelt message to her on Facebook in 2013 only to discover she had been unfriended. Fishel stated that she doesn't use the platform much so she didn't see the message until 2022 when she tried to contact her about being on the podcast; however, Ward found her reaching out to be "disingenuous."

The pair then accused the other of additional animosity, with Fishel claiming Ward has spoken badly about the cast over the years and Ward blasting the podcast for "grilling" her to get higher ratings and for spouting negativity. Fishel addressed the latter accusation by pointing out that Ward opened up about her own experiences in her book, and that sharing personal anecdotes doesn't equate to spreading negativity.

Despite the back-and-forth, they got through the tense conversation and seemingly landed amicably on the other side as Fishel emphasized that she doesn't "hate" Ward and that the podcast hosts would "gladly have her back" in the future.
