In 2017, Patrick and his co-host Gillian Pensavalle created the true crime/comedy podcast True Crime Obsessed. TCO was an instant hit and quickly became one of the most popular true crime podcasts on the internet. In February 2020, Patrick launched the Obsessed Network with its first new podcast, Obsessed With: Abducted in Plain Sight, and will produce two more original podcasts for the network this year.
Patrick began his podcasting journey in 2013 as the creator, co-producer, and host of the popular Theater People podcast. Theater People was a first of its kind podcast, featuring full-length interviews with Tony winners, Broadway legends, and theater’s brightest stars. Theater People was notably included in NPR’s 2016 hand-picked list of the best podcasts on the internet, was cited by Buzzfeed as one of the 22 best pop-culture podcasts online, and was named an honoree in the category of "Best Podcast" by the 2016 Webby Awards. In 2016, Patrick launched Broadway Backstory, which was nominated for a Webby Award in 2018. He was also tapped by Disney Theatrical Productions to produce and host The Official Disney on Broadway podcast.
