Listener sentiment
Getting Over continues to command near-unanimous listener enthusiasm, with the most recent ratings extending the same dominant positive pattern observed over the past two years. Audiences consistently describe it as the best—or only—wrestling podcast they listen to, praising hosts Adam Silverstein and Chris Vannini for their journalistic rigor, detailed match-by-match breakdowns, and balanced coverage across WWE, AEW, and NXT. Listeners particularly value the instant post-event episodes, the hosts' willingness to disagree thoughtfully without brand tribalism, and the ad-free format. A recurring theme is the show's role as a gateway for lapsed fans returning to wrestling, with many reviewers crediting the podcast for deepening their appreciation of the product and keeping them informed when they can't watch every show. A handful of isolated negative ratings center on perceived political commentary and allegations of promotion bias, but these represent a tiny fraction and do not reflect the broader consensus. One recurring constructive note suggests Vannini could have more airtime relative to Silverstein, though even that reviewer rated the show highly.
