It used to be Patty & Emily's but sadly they stopped making them. I like Broadwaysted and Theater People.

Behind the Curtain, hands down. 

I love the interviews with legends in the Broadway community and the "Our Favorite Things" segments.

I love all of the podcasts run by Patrick Hinds. Theater People, BroadwayBackstory, and BroadwayCon The Podcast.

Broadwaysted is also a favorite.

Broadway Backstory by Patrick Hinds is wonderful. Informative, engaging, with excellent t production values. There are 8, the last one posted more than a few months ago. Does anyone know Patrick and/or if he has plans to continue? He does considerable research so I can image they are time-consuming and labor-intensive.

Broadway Backstory is my favorite! Super interesting, informative, and includes interviews with the cast/creative. I've listened to every episode!

I like them somewhat but they go off on way too many tangents and basically say on the tangent longer than the actual musical they're supposed to talk about. They also get facts wrong pretty often. I never email/tweet corrections because I'm not that guy, but I am the guy who screams "No, it was LANIE KAZAN!!" to my speakers.

I love Theater People for the quality of guests and interviews. I wish that Patrick would tone it down a bit with the hyperbole... Seems like he is "obsessed" with everyone and all of their projects are his "favorite shows" :P

I also really liked Broadway Backstory. Their Twitter confirms more episodes are coming this September.

Yeah! Just got an email from TodayTix, producer of the Broadway Backstory podcast. Season 2 starts September 19 with a two-part podcast on HAMILTON.

My favorite is Behind the Curtain. Great interviews with current stars and stars of the past. Always interesting content. Sadly their Peter Filichia episode has some major sound issues.

Off-book! It's a new improvised musical podcast, where the hosts invite someone from the comedy world, then the theee of them get to make up a 45 minute musical on the spot -- it's a little juvenile, has an awful theme song, and the songs are typically nonsense, but they sure are funny. 

FYI, Broadway Backstory does have a second season coming.
