James Monroe IglehartEvery podcast appearance, updated as new ones drop

Broadway's longest-running Genie--and our very own co-host--takes the hype seat for the first time. After more than 4,000 performances, three continents, four companies, and a decade inside the lamp at the New Amsterdam Theatre, Michael James Scott opens up about what his record-making, ground-break run actually meant: why joy became his protest, why "my power is light" took years to believe, the church offering that got a theater kid from Orlando to New York City, and the Ben Vereen surprise in Paris that changed everything. We flooded him with love from the people who know him best--video messages welcoming him to the rare, elite 4,000 Club. This episode is packed with surprises--including guest appearances from James Monroe Iglehart, Caisse Levy, Will Swenson & Audra McDonald, and the Little Mermaid herself, Sierra Boggess--plus Ashley surprises him with the perfect gift (and then he surprises her with the perfect Internet Impulse Purchase!).. But the moment that stays with you is the last question: who walked into this dressing room, and who walks out? His answer will wreck you.

Now nominated for a Tony Award for his portrayal of Armstrong, Iglehart talks to host Ruthie Fierberg, executive editor of Broadway News.
