Launched as a passion project, Insight features in-depth, in-person conversations with leading figures from wrestling and beyond, including The Rock, John Cena, Dave Bautista, Chris Jericho, Becky Lynch, Cody Rhodes, Jelly Roll, Rey Mysterio, and The Undertaker. Known for his thoughtful and candid approach, Van Vliet explores not only his guests' careers but also the motivations and mindsets behind their success.
"I couldn't be more excited to bring Insight to the Cumulus Podcast Network," said Van Vliet. "Pro wrestling is the hottest it's been in decades, and this partnership allows us to continue growing the show and connecting with fans who love authentic, meaningful conversations."
