I agree w/ BM... It should pull off with sufficient force... If glued, heat can help, but you don't want to cook the pod - I haven't tried it, but I'd be inclined to flip the pod upside down and submerge just the knob in a pot of boiling water for a few minutes to soften any glue...
Another option if you can push the boot down a little would be to grab the shaft w/ a pair of locking needlenose pliers and then apply more force w/ a second pair of locking pliers on the knob....
Last option is the destructive approach, get on the knob w a slitting saw in a Dremel and then split it w/ a screwdriver...
