    Cody Renard Richard: Broadway Secrets & Timothée Chalamet Ballet Drama
    Mar 19 2026
    This week on Only Child: Broadway Edition, Bob the Drag Queen sits down with Tony-winning Broadway producer, stage manager, and multi-hyphenate creative Cody Renard Richard, the incredible force behind shows like A Strange Loop, Parade, and Othello starring Denzel Washington. They get into Cody’s Texas rodeo roots, from calf roping and growing up with horses to the unexpected path that led him from stage management to producing some of Broadway’s biggest shows. Cody also shares how he built his name (literally) and why being an “only child” might be the secret to success. The two also talk about the reality of Broadway life, grueling 8-show weeks, sudden closing notices, and what it actually takes to sustain a career behind the scenes. Plus: Chick-fil-A controversies in rehearsal rooms, Met Gala chaos (and a Rihanna encounter 👀), Cats: The Jellicle Ball, Black theater excellence, and Cody’s VERY strong opinions about who should’ve originated Elphaba.

    Oh, Lincoln! - John-Andrew Morrison
    Feb 26 2026
    This week on Only Child, The Broadway editions continue as Bob the Drag Queen sits down with Oh, Mary!'s most recent Lincoln, John-Andrew Morrison. They talk about John-Andrew’s 15-year journey with A Strange Loop, from early workshops to his Broadway debut, and what it was like performing the show’s most emotional moments in front of the writer’s family. He opens up about getting sober, nearly giving up his Equity card, and the $14,000 corporate mistake that pushed him to finally choose theater full time. The two longtime friends also reflect on coming up in New York together, code-switching between worlds, losing parents while performing, and what it really means to “turn it on” as a show person, no matter what’s happening offstage.

  • A Hill You’re Willing To Die On Today - Kid Fury

    A Hill You’re Willing To Die On Today - Kid Fury
    Jan 29 2026
    Welcome to Only Child! In the very first episode, Bob kicks off his new solo podcast with none other than Kid Fury. The two get into everything from growing up online, Black internet lore, pop culture opinions that absolutely should not be shared this confidently, to Hollywood, podcasting, nostalgia, and why certain arguments are worth starting just for fun. Things get silly, honest, and a little unhinged as Bob and Kid Fury debate culture, comedy, why Ke$ha makes Bob cry, and the very serious business of who can say what, and why. And of course, the episode ends with the question that causes the most chaos:What is a hill you’re willing to die on?
