Insight with Chris Van Vliet

Love the podcast, and grateful for the phenomenal interviews from CVV!

I have been a fan for over a year now, and I am going back and forth between the new stuff you post and the old stuff you post, have you been the one interviewed on anything lately, minus being on takers. If you have can we see more of these. And congrats on bbvv, love the podcast

As a 41 year old and a child of the Attitude Era, I’ve found myself keeping a distance from wrestling over the last few decades. But over the last years I’ve regained quite the interest again, it’s actually become a safety blanket of sorts. As a kid I watched wrestling with my dad (Razor Ramon was our favorite), one of our few shared interests. He was a car guy and I was a nerd. I now live states away from my dad and neither of us had watched in a very long time. He still doesn’t, but for me, the one thing that brought me back was Stone Cold Steve Austin vs Kevin Owens at Wrestlemania 38. I guess seeing Austin and McMahon in a ring together again, and as bad as that stunner was, something unlocked and once Peacock took on all of the WWE content, I started rewatching everything from 1995, including every PPV I had never seen. Slowly, I started watching PLEs and eventually I started watching weekly. Call it nostalgia, but after the whole McMahon saga ended I was fully back In. I have a son, he’s 6 and autistic and couldn’t care less about watching, he does shout “WWE” when the logo pops up and we have matching Austin 3:16 and NWO shirts. Anyways, long story longer, when I started back into WWE I started listening to podcasts about weekly shows but mostly listening for the behind the scenes, non kayfabe side of wrestling. The thing I appreciate most about wrestling is the brother and sister-hood of the wrestlers and podcasts like Insight with CVV really digs into that side of wrestling. Chris has really great interviews and most importantly, he cares about the craft. And to be honest, his positivity is sort of effecting me. As much as we continue to move forward, it’s nice to go back once in a while.

I absolutely love listening to insight with CVV. I have been religiously listening since 2019 and am always blown away by your interviews. You make sure to do your research and ask questions people actually want to know. You always keep me entertained and excited for the next episode. I’m so proud of how far you’ve come and excited to see what’s next.
