The podcasts recently have been about 70% commercials. I love the content but either beef up the content of cur down on the commercials.

I’m hooked! I’ve listened to 43 podcasts so far- many of them a number of times. Ken’s guests are insightful, delightful, and the whole experience is inspiring. This is my personal introduction to Broadway one guest at a time.

I’m a huge fan of musicals and love hearing Ken interview so many different people in the business. I randomly choose a podcast and find each one I’ve listened to more informative than I anticipate. Hearing the stories told from such a variety of people is fascinating and promotes podbinging!!

I love the insights and guests Ken gets on the show. Some of the best content related to Theatre making and producing on the internet. He really knows how to get into the nooks and crannies of the business without feeling too wonky. He brings out incredible stories and perspectives from some of...Read full review »

Just discovered this podcast via another podcast (Curtain Call) and have already listen to 5 episodes. Absolutely fascinating for anyone interested in how theatre is made - especially on Broadway.

Because the whole show sounds like it’s being done in a tunnel. For someone who is an accomplished “producer” one would think Mr. Davenport would be able to offer a higher quality production.

In addition to being a Tony-Award winning producer, Ken has an obvious passion to share insight, information, and knowledge with anyone who has a desire to hear it. What is not to love about this podcast??
Ken Offricht via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/27/18
One of the best resources out there about the business of theatre.

Ken has started something that is absolutely priceless! The Producer’s Perspective is a podcast run by an actual Broadway producer, who interviews guests that are actually successful on Broadway and Off-Broadway. His guests include - directors, producers, actors, costume designers, play writes,...Read full review »

Jerry Zaks is a remarkable director and his references to developing a play are inspiring. He refers to the moment that a cast steps before an audience for the first time as going from... "make believe of the rehearsal room to reality." So we must never forget that engaging the...Read full review »

I’ve been listening to The Producer’s Perspective for over 2 years, and while the interviews are quite interesting, I’ve finally had it with the poor audio quality and having to wait several days for the download/stream to work properly. It’s particularly annoying in the car, since the...Read full review »

You don't have to be a wannabe producer to enjoy Ken Davenport's upbeat conversations with an impressive variety of industry players. If you are a theater fan, marketer, or just love a good success story, give Ken a listen. I got hooked on this because I love what Ken did for the...Read full review »

IT is sad that this podcast is so poorly produced. the sound quality has been bad to terrible for much of the run of the show. a few episodes ago it started with a comment that the sound issues were resolved and they were as bad as ever. A second issue is that even tho the podcast shows up...Read full review »
Movidude74 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/25/17
Great, informative podcast and you speak to so many cool people. Surely you must know sound people that could get you on the right track. Why won't you see your way to "producing" some better sound for yourself? Invest in yourself, buddy!Read full review »

The content here is solid but the audio is so bad it's nearly unlistenable. I find myself having to remove my headphones because of the reverb. You'd think this producer would know countless audio engineers.Read full review »

This podcast always satisfies with it's interviews. I always look forward to the next one, however: the audio quality of the interviews is usually very lacking. It would be great if you can simply used a studio, or used a better quality microphone to capture these wonderful and insightful...Read full review »

Ken. KEN. Your content is always fantastic, but PLEASE invest the less-than-$200 it will cost you to buy a decent mic or two. I literally cannot understand a word of your podcast unless I wear headphones, and even then it's EXHAUSTING to tease out the real audio from the...Read full review »

Being outside NYC, Ken's podcast -- with its varied guests -- provides information and insight in the creation of theatre in New York that can be applied in any theatrical venue.

Ken Davenport is possibly the best theatrical interviewer today. Insightful questions with theatrical luminaries who do not usually get to share their experiences in the industry. Brava!
Jacob8052 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/02/16
Terrific insights from incredibly gifted people, most of all host Ken Davenport. This engaging podcast is such a gift to anyone interested in all aspects of the creation of musical theatre. Ken thinks way outside the box and it’s awesome.
orrisimo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/15/16
What a privilege to have 45 uninterrupted minutes of insight and memories from a master … Davenport has a real knack for interviewing and bringing out his guests’ theatrical gifts to share.
Tristan Robin via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/18/16
I know nothing about the business of theater.... But am working on a one man show. While my play is not bound for Broadway, I am learning so much from this podcast
ThomSinger via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/29/15
Ken, please fix sound issues and downloading bugs! Other than that the content is the best you will find about the industry.

5 for content, 3 for sound quality! They always sound like they're recording in a bathroom! Plenty of podcasts that are more grass rootsy or lower budget sound better than this. Get a new microphone or record in a studio! Please! It's almost impossible to listen to these. You can do...Read full review »

I’ll get my gripe out of the way early… I wish the sound quality was better. Ken seems to be traveling to different locations to get these interviews (which offers a host of problems, I know), but these days there’s no excuse. Thousands of podcasts out there with a professional sheen to them…...Read full review »

Love these podcasts. I listen faithfully every week. Where else can you find such a thorough history and variety of perspectives on the New York theater scene?
