    Fully obsessed
    Everytime I put on this podcast, I learn one to two million things. I consider it an invaluable resource for anyone who is looking for an earnest, funny, sometimes irreverent musical theatre podcast. Fully obsessed.
  • Larry of NYC
    Love for the Ladies of Broadway
    Ben and Daniel revere a Broadway belt and have put it on display for theatre lovers as one of the brightest lights in the world of podcasts- love their spirit and humor and showcasing of incredible singers on every show.
  • LSkyBlue
    Dishy and deep!
    This show will take you deep into the best of broadway with delicious backstage/offstage anecdotes and insight. With an impressive command of musical theater history, this show will make you smarter and funnier at your next cocktail party. In fact, the show itself has the best feeling of sitting with Ben and Daniel having a dishy, intimate conversation at their Fire Island share. These two charmers will reignite your passion for musicals and, of course, Patti LuPone.

    Broadway Gays for Days/Daze
    This podcast (and accompanying livestream) is keeping my Broadway obsession alive in quarantine. Come for the insider talk, stay for Daniel’s tank tops.

  • gtg02la
    Favorite podcast!
    Love these guys! Love the original format but the QuaranStreams format is The Best. Super knowledgeable, super passionate, they’re my favorites.
  • duffalup
    The best.
    Ben and Daniel are hysterical and delightful. They are wonderful interviewers who do deep research and ask really interesting questions. Listening to this podcast is like hanging out with your witty musical/cabaret super-nerd friends. It’s the best.
  • Cleopatra Danger
    Deep dive into broadway
    Great queer dive into diva worship (and not so worship). Ben is right about everything (and for the record does a great Bernadette impression). Obsessive, insightful, hilarious, great guests and stories. Not to miss for broadway fans.
  • CathiLovesPods
    So good!
    Love it!!!
  • Riv2theb
    Love love love
    What a great podcast. You learn about artists you love in a new way, and maybe a recording you haven’t heard about. Who could ask for anything more??
  • MiguelGris
    Phenomenal!
    Deliciously explored Broadway revivals, I am hooked!
  • spot784

  • d0617
    Must Listen
    A must-listen for anyone who loves musical theatre or anyone with a pulse! Seriously, the hosts are hilarious and Ben’s knowledge and ability to interview his guests makes this requires listening for theatre lovers and show queens!
  • jess_spicy
    Fun! Even for the Broadway Newbies!
    This podcast was great - even as a person who knows very little about Broadway or musical theater! Ben and Daniel guide you through conversations with the stars. I feel like I’m getting the inside scoop on the musical theater industry! Each episode is fun and goes by quickly and by the end you will feel conversant in musical theater culture!
  • Foofan2
    Just what Broadway fans needed
    A fabulous connection to NYC stars and their nostalgia. Broken Records gives you an approachable look into their lives and is complete treat to any Broadway fan! Can’t wait to see it grow.
  • mjf114
    Trust me, it’ll be swell!! It’ll be great!! 🎭🎤
    I don’t even need to hear ONE WORD to know this is the podcast I need in my life. I oversaturate on all things Bravo and pop culture, but Broadway? Oy. I’ve struggled. But listening to Ben Rimalower on Andy’s Girls has always been ah-mah-zing, watching him giggle with (at? 😏) Lu on RONY was perfection.....and now I can look forward to regular input on all things musical theatre! Happy happy happy! 🤗🌈❤️🧡💛💚💙
