Kris Kyer Meets World

One of the most eclectic human beings to ever work on Boy Meets World, Kris Kyer, joins the gang to talk about his unbelievable past in entertainment.

Did we mention he is the youngest Ringling Bros. ringmaster ever AND the owner of a seasonal Christmas store!? Also…Waldo????

Get ready for never-heard-before stories about Danielle, Will, Rider, Anton Yelchin and the BMW character he was closest to: Morgan.
