    Great show for Broadway lovers
    Connor and Dylan are great hosts! They ask their guests thoughtful, informed questions and do a lot of research on them before they come on the show. They’re very funny and always have good interactions with their guests and with each other. Strongly recommend to any broadway fan!

    Excellent in every way
    Dylan and Connor are fantastic hosts - charming and funny but not overbearing; they never try to outshine their guests. They attract both top names and rising theater stars, and have a deep well of knowledge and easygoing manner that quickly puts their guests at a ease — a true skill that comes naturally to them. Week after week I’m elated that I listened, even when I wasn’t sure going in whether I’d be interested in that week’s guest. Nowhere else will you get such insightful, informative, engaging conversations with the stars of New York theater.

    This is THE theater pod!
    I wasn’t a big podcast person, until I started listening to Drama Pod. It feels like I’m chatting with friends in the room about theater, a passion of mine, and it’s so natural and easy-going, Connor and Dylan make it feel like theater is medicine for all to enjoy. They stay true to their podcast formula and inspirations, while really making the most of their time with their guests. It’s a mini recap of a guests’ repertoire along with the fun in’s and outs of shows they’ve worked on or are currently starring in. And the twin-talk episodes just allow you into the lives of Connor and Dylan even more—like a quick catchup with your besties. This is my go to pod, and I recommend this to all theater lovers out there. You’ll find ways to laugh, cry, and learn something new in each episode.

    It’s Like Sitting With Your Besties!
    As a lover of all things musical theatre AND also being a twin, I can’t get enough of this podcast. You can instantly feel their love of Broadway and their sibling bond work seamlessly as they talk to their guests. You can’t stop at one episode, once you’re in you’re hooked and you can just sit back and enjoy the ride.

    Drama with Connor & Dylan is one of my absolute favorite listens & was also my intro to podcasts! I never thought I’d be a podcast person but the twins are so relatable and down to earth. They have amazing guests & are a must listen for any musical theatre/Broadway lover. I look forward to my time with the boys each week & would encourage you to treat yourself with an episode. I guarantee you’ll learn a lot and end with a smile on your face!

    LOVE LOVE LOVE DRAMA!!
    I’ve listened to every theatre podcast in the book- and I have to say DRAMA. is by FAR my favorite! Their questions are so thoughtful, and it’s so heartwarming to listen to them invest in each guest they have. It’s like listening to a friendship form. Can not recommend this enough!

    The Episode With Erika Henningsen
    Ok this podcast is absolutely amazing. I saw that Erika was going to be on this podcast and listened to it. Not only are the two hosts incredible but they asked such interesting questions to her. I highly recommend this podcast. Connor and Dylan are so Fetch. Also I love how they bring on different guests. Keep up the amazing work on this podcast guys

    Great Interview with Bradley Gibson!

  • mayorpete156
    Delightful
    I’m so gagged by these two! They’re so delightful to listen to. Never a dull moment between them and their fabulous guests!
  • A.N.S.M.
    Always a good episode!
    I haven’t found an episode that I haven’t enjoyed! Dylan and Connor always have fun stories and amazing guests. This podcast has been great in quarantine to keep up what is going on in my favorite Broadway performers lives. I love hearing the “Ring Of Keys” moments. I read Fun Home for a book discussion last semester for college, and the reference makes it even better.
  • BMar726
    Best Theatre Pod!
    Dylan and Connor have truly mastered the art of making you feel like you are sitting on the couch swapping stories with friends. Their podcast breaks down the common barriers of theatre interviews. You’ll get to hear why stars fell in love with theatre, career highlights, respectfully spilled tea and a dash of pop culture. I cannot thank these two enough for bringing such joy to the theatre community while we are temporarily without the live shows that we love.
  • MarcAntButts
    The Best Podcast EVER!!!!!!

    Favorite Theatre Pod
    Love this show and these twins. They have natural, flowing conversations that breeze by. You can tell they win over every guest and make you fall in love with the star. Best, unbiased theatre podcast out there.
  • TSmigs
    Guaranteed Laughter
    Whenever I’m looking for a laugh, I turn to this podcast. Fun, topical, and genuine, I always turn to Drama when I’m looking for a little chicken soup for the soul. Take a listen! You just might fall in love with these twins, just like I have.

    Broadway May Be Closed for Now, But Connor and Dylan Keep the Magic Alive
    Drama with Connor & Dylan MacDowell is hands-down my favorite theatre podcast. The beauty of Drama is that you don’t have to be a theatre aficionado to enjoy it. That’s because through each conversation they tap into what we’re all searching for right now, inspiration. Sometimes I’m shocked to learn that Connor and Dylan are often speaking with these guests for the first time. Their poise, natural humor, and relatability make every unique conversation memorable. It’s also apparent that they genuinely care what their guests have to say. I can’t wait for Broadway to reopen just so I can see some of their guests in new or revival productions. Until then, I’m confident that Drama is the best substitute for the stage.
  • Broadway Newbie
    Fun and refreshing
    Update review: These guys have only gotten better. I loved their episode with Robyn especially. Again, I’m not a huge theatre fan, but they’re making me one! A great podcast for those who want to know more about all that is Broadway. However, it isn’t too niche for those who aren’t intimately involved in the day-to-day world of Broadway. Strikes the perfect balance! It also is so dang fun! Can’t wait for my Wednesday listens.

    Like being with old friends
    LOVED The Bogglement episode with Celia Rose Gooding. Connor and Dylan’s inquisitive conversational tone and thoughtful questions made it feel like you were in the green room with friends. Celia is a freaking star and was a joy to get to learn more about.
  • angie.hrndz

    I can’t believe that I get to listen to your banter about all of my favorite subjects each week getting ready to go to work and on my drive. It’s like college on lane avenue all over again!

  • drinjones
    One of the best theatre podcasts out there!
    Drama is inspiring, informative, and so so fun! The hosts are very natural and do a great job of facilitating an interesting and rich conversation that never feels forced. I also love how they cover a performer’s resume and also y’all about life and culture in general - it’s a great way of putting theatre in a larger social context. Always a great listen!

    Cannot Get Enough
    I listen to this podcast every week (sometimes twice) and that is not enough. The guests are truly incredible, insightful, and so joyous to listen to. The twins, Dylan and Connor, are truly the gold mine of theatre podcasts. From Dylan’s knowledge, humor, and hilarious side comments to Connor’s boy-cravings, intoxicating laugh, and entertainment field knowledge, this podcast has it all! This holiday season has me wishing this podcast on all because it brings me such a unique, weekly joy.
  • btdubzz1
    Full of passion. And Drama!
    Connor and Dylan were made for this. Even as someone who isn’t very “into” or passionate about musical theater, this podcast remains fun and engaging because these two inject so much heart and humor into everything they do - DRAMA included. Proud of these guys!

    Stuck in my head...
    Engaging, passionate, authentic, dramatic! Makes me want to quit my job, (somehow) train to become a broadway star and move to NYC ALL just to be a guest on Drama! and have the twins whisper sweet dramas in my ear...
