Such a breath of fresh air
This pod is so positive and upbeat and makes ya feel good with every episode I love knowing that even though superstars have had trying times that they worked through them and are telling others that are struggling to be strong and never give up and always have courage and be who you are and always strive for greatness and be a champion awesome podcast love it !!!

Stop trying to be a therapist.
I love learning about the real lives of WWE superstars, their struggles and how they overcame them. What bothers me is that Lillian gives advise that she’s not qualified to give. Lillian is a journalist, not a therapist or psychologist. What’s worse is that she tries to relate with the Superstar by sharing a personal story that is not at all similar to the trauma the Superstar went through. I’m sure she means well but it’s condescending.

Always so depressing
I love love the interviews. I just dislike that every interview is so depressing and sad... I know in the end superstars overcome obstacles. For once it’d be nice to hear a realistic, raw and honest upbeat happy interview.

Love for Lilian
Lilian, I have loved you ever since you've announced for WWE, the first time I heard your voice, it was so warm and inviting and instantly fell in love with you. You made me want to be a WWE Superstar so I can hear you announce me to the ring. (Currently pursuing as well) I love all the stories, even if I didn't like the person, or if I didn't know them I still listened, they're real people, they've been through real life events, traumatic or not. They've overcome obstacles every day, negatively and positively, they've become so much better since doing your show. For the past year, I have always listened, I never knew about podcasts then I found yours and lost my mind. Hearing your voice, in times like 2020 or even going through my own battles, you've made me realize everything will be okay in the end. If it's meant to be make it obvious, if it's not meant to be make it obvious❤️. Moreover, I've used so many of these stories in my life since listening and how the superstars felt going through this or that and have tried to think like them. You truly have made a difference in the world🥰. You're amazing and if I ever get the chance to meet you I'd love it and wouldn't stop hugging you. You've made such an impact, you're a great role model, I can never listen to one episode. I always look for more❤️ Thank you so much for bringing this amazing show. I'd love to listen to the original.

I can’t even express how I love this podcast.
Hey Lilian, Thank you for this show, I can’t even express how I feel about this show. From 7-9 I was bullied for liking school and bring a happy attitude on Monday's, because where I live video games and junk food are the “cool” things and loving school is the “nerd things” there was a year where I shut myself up at school, I never talked because I felt that whatever I said I would get bullied on. But knowing you were bullied helped me through that time, I stopped being silent I answered questions, I worked hard, and kept thinking in my head Lilian got through this, look at where she is now. She was a WWE announcer, she owns a podcast, she is a legit super hero. She inspires others to be positive and never give up. These podcasts made me not feel alone, just knowing that these people were bullied help my out of it, and now I’m 14 I am in a reading club, I am on a volleyball team, I help make art for school parties and such and such. Without this show I might of still be silent, I thank you so much for this show, you saved me. Thank you for not making me silent. Leah💓Lovelace,

Chasing Glory with Lilian Garcia is a Gem
I have to put Chasing Glory with Lilian Garcia over cause it has a very intimate vibe about it when talents, Superstars get very personal about their lives, their triumphs, their struggles in their chase for glory. Lilian, your show is special it’s such a very positive & uplifting show that I reccomend to anybody not just Pro Wrestling fans. You should be proud of your body of work cause like you have said numerous times in interviews it genuinely is a labor of love for fans around the world. Much love to you always Lilian I’m forever a fan. #ChasingGlory 🎤 🎧 ❤️

Hey Lillian Love your show. Came upon the episode with Sting and i was HOOKED. Ive been binge listening since. Thanks for all your doing during this pandemic. As a mental health patient, the Melina episode really hit home. Keep up the great work!! I’ll be listening!!

Otis is Great
I just watched the Otis episode and I had no idea that Otis, just like me, suffers from a reading disorder. I had no idea that he and I had that in common and I think it’s great that I can relate to one of my favorite Wrestlers. Rock on Otis and God Bless. Also thank you Lilian so much for this podcast. Your an inspiration. God bless and rock on.

Simply Amazing
I’m a HUGE wrestling fan and have been since I as far back as I can remember and stumbled upon your podcast when I started listening to Stone Cold Steve Austin’s podcast and he had you on it. I can honestly say I am hooked on this podcast and because of the people you have and their very honest and candid interviews, it makes it so easy to continue to listen. Keep up the fantastic work! -Jesse S- San Antonio Tx

Awesome podcast
I found this podcast by mistake. I am learning about wrestlers I never heard of. There aren’t a lot of ladies who talks about sports. Keep up the awesome job.

The Melina Episode Helped Me
Time and time again, Lilian Garcia has delivered hard hitting podcast tinted views with meaning. Everything feels so natural, and raw. Seeing this has helped me, as so many episodes have. Especially Melina’s episode. Life has been a whirlwind for me. Dealing with a narcissistic mother, and depression myself. Then came my independent wrestling career. When I was 16 years old, my mother was arrested for drug use and went to jail for some time. This came at the hardest point in my life. I was so lost. Recently coming out to my peers and facing rejection, my father rejecting me as well, whom I never really had a relationship with. I felt so lost, and then I was flushed into the foster care system. And these interviews helped me during the time. And, it helped a lot. Seeing I attempted to take my life as well. Today, I am proud to say I have regained my relationship with my father, am trying to do so with my mother, and more. My independent career as a ring announcer has flourished, and Lilian continues to deliver these amazing interviews. Thank You so much, because without such content, I do not believe I could be as inspired to chase my dream and goals. Thank You so much Lilian, and God Bless.

Thank you for inspiring me.
I want to start off by saying that I started watching WWE when I was 7 in 1999 (which was when you debuted, Lilian! I know you’ve talked about how you weren’t that great at announcing when you started, but I have no memories of that time. I only remember how amazing you were at it and how incredible it was to hear you sing the National Anthem every time I got to go to Raw at Madison Square Garden! I want to personally thank you for all of the hard work you put into this podcast. Not only is it inspiring to hear the most fascinating stories, but you’re also very inspirational to me as well. I am an aspiring journalist who aspires to interview individuals on their incredible stories the way you do. The way you form your questions are very smart. You’re able to really inspire your guests to open up when they probably wouldn’t otherwise. They feel safe opening up to you and that’s what it’s about. That’s what I aspire to be. Thank you for giving us such amazing content during these crazy times, and thank you for all the amazing memories growing up as a WWE fan (and still a lifelong fan!). You’re awesome, and don’t your ever forget that!

Lilian Is A Gift For Self Motivation
She was always my favorite ring announcer in WWE, and hearing her voice, and her guests talk about their ups and downs gives it a very human like substance. Lilian shows that you’re not alone in your fight, and to trust in yourself. Every journey is unique for each person. I couldn’t thank her enough for her episodes. They are therapeutic, and I look forward to her episodes each week. Thank you for being our light Lilian, and making us be a part of your family. Love you!

I just recently got into listening to podcasts due to the pandemic, since I have more time on my hands now. Being a big wrestling fan, I reached out to friends for recommendations and ‘Chasing Glory’ was one of them. I’ve been hooked ever since. I love how Lillian starts off the cast with some inspiring words and always provides uplifting vibes during this time of crisis. She always brings out the best of her guests as well as she can relate to a lot of topics that they discuss. Keep up the good job Lillian, and thanks for keeping fans like myself entertained!

Amazing & Inspirational
I have always been a huge fan of Chasing Glory. Lillian have always impressed me with her announcing skills, and hearing so many superstars, personalities, and peoples chase to glory is nothing short of inspiring. Especially on days you’re feeling in the dumps, hearing a great chase to glory story is the perfect way to flip your mood. Lillian does great picking apart people’s story’s and digging deep into what set them on the right path. Easily in my top 3 favorite podcasts, and Lill we are going to get through this lockdown together!! Thank you for taking the time to do this show, especially during now, can definitely see how this is like a therapy session for you and your listeners alike. Thanks again 😊😊😊

Finally Catching Up
I started listening during stay at home orders in the StL area. I’m a journalist, so I’m used to a busy newsroom and all the sounds that came with it. It was always on my “to do list” and I finally had time. While writing local news for a station here, I listened to 2 or sometimes 3 episodes a day. Lilian -with 1 L- helped me immensely. She was like my co worker who helped me get through each day while listening to a subject I am very interested in. I never have “watched” an episode..only listened. lol. For a woman, this really puts a nice, inside and emotional look at those who I revere for their extremely hard work and the talent/athleticism they share with fans. Thanks lady! See you in the office tomorrow! PS. Love the clothes but can we get some colors other than black? If so THANK YOU!!

Absolutely terrible.
I was looking forward all week to MITB. The description to this podcast spoiled the ending within minutes after it ended IN THE FIRST SENTENCE. Don’t you realize some people watch it on the network later on in the evening and not live? I’ve never seen another podcast do this. Absolutely terrible.

Just Glory-ious
Lilian is phenomenal at what she does. She never fails to make her guest feel right at home & her interviews are deep conversations between friends & Lilian is amazing to you. Stay healthy and please stay safe sis!!!!

What an inspiring show!
Great podcast. As a long time Wrestling fan, I truly love the way Lilian is able to get her guests to open up in a way some of them weren’t able to do before her show. I personally would love to hear WWE’s JoJo on her show. I think JoJo has an interesting story and would love to hear it. Keep up the great work.

Something to look forward to on Mondays!
I love listening to the personal stories including all the ups and downs of all the incredible guests on Chasing Glory! Please have Baron Corbin on soon!!

I love Lilian Garcia!
I hate podcasts but I love this one. Melina's interview was so deep and so helpful. Kayla Braxton's story touched me so much. This podcast has great content and great stories. Lilian if you see this, can you please interview A-KID from NXT UK? He's a Spanish guy representing for the Hispanic/Latino community. I would love to hear his story. May God bless you. This podcast is a ray of light in these hard times.

A Refreshing Podcast
I am loving this podcast. Lilian Garcia is such a positive and upbeat person, and her interviews are hard-hitting and deeply personal. They have lessons to be learned and you really get to know the subjects, rather than just hearing about surface stuff.

Thank you🖤
I just want to say thank you for being a truly amazing and genuine human being. The world would be so much better if there were more people like you. I loved when you had Molly Holly and she talked about her food addiction. Up until that, I didn’t realize that was a thing and that I was suffering through it. I still struggle with it, but because of her I now know how to handle it and I’m slowly making the steps to being a better and healthier version of myself. Thank you for all you’ve done and will continue to do. You’re an icon🖤

Amazing Interviews and Insight!
Lilian has a way of really making the guests feel comfortable doing the podcast and it shows. You can tell just by listening that it’s just 2 friends having a conversation. I enjoy listening to these episodes. You can tell everyone that comes on really trusts her with what’s discussed. This is great! Keep up the great work! -Stephanie

Amazing Podcast & A Potential Guest
I absolutely love this podcast! This is a great platform for wrestling fans to get to really know their favorite superstars instead of just their act on TV. I love how open the guests are and how much they are helping others out there by speaking about their struggles. The episode that got me listening was Dana Brooke’s interview. I very much relate to her as I dealt with not being able to compete very much when I was a high school athlete. Thank you Lilian and the Chasing Glory team for creating a touching and impactful podcast that has helped me and many others to come! This is my absolute FAVORITE podcast to listen to when I study for my college classes and when I work out occasionally! One guest I would LOVE for Lilian to interview on the podcast is Alexa Nikolas. She is an actress residing in Los Angeles who has been through a rough divorce and hardships as an actress (especially when she was on Zoey101) and I feel that it’s VERY IMPORTANT for people to know the real, raw truth of certain experiences you can face in the entertainment industry. She has so much to teach others with her experiences and Chasing Glory is the PERFECT platform to open up!

Great, Except...
New to the show and have been binge listening. I’ve been a fan of wrestling and Lilian since the attitude era! A lot of the stories I resonate with! It’s so great that the woman empowerment feel this show brings. Until I listened to the Nita Strauss show. It kinda threw me off when you ladies were taking about the me too movement. It sounded like you both were dismissive of the women coming out because it wasn’t “your story” or what happened to you. Lilian made a comment about her one experience “do you think I’m stupid” in respond to a man inviting her to his room to listen to her music. Great for you that you knew not to. But there are a lot of young, vulnerable girls who may not know how to handle a situation like that! These men are manipulative and in power so they may be more incline to do as they say. It shouldn’t be a woman’s or girl’s job to control a mans intention. Please be sensitive to the victims out there who have experienced assault and harassment by men who took advantage of them not because of what they were wearing, not what we did, led them on... just cause it wasn’t your experience doesn’t mean you can support these women and stand up for them.

My love for this podcast!!!
I love this podcast. I love how everyone, especially WWE superstars is opening up and telling their story. I’m a huge fan of WWE and the fact that they opened up made me feel that I should as open as they are. Some of the stories made me cry and feel many emotions. Thank you Lilian for having these people have a platform to open up. I hope you see this review soon.

REAL, RAW & WOW! WOW! WOW! INSPIRING
I can’t get enough of this podcast!! It’s so inspiring to hear these stories. For the longest time I thought I was alone. I especially like how you mix up the guests and give us variety. This podcast has opened up my eyes in so many ways and has made me want to be a better person no matter how hard the struggle. Thank you Lilian!! Great work!!!

Great listen!
I can see why Lilian is so highly thought of in the Wrestling community. She seems to be a genuine person and I’ve enjoyed listening to her podcast and listening to the compelling stories of the wrestlers.

Thank you Lillian & Mia Yim
This podcast is such a great place to get to know the human behind the performer. I know two people that unfortunately did go through domestic violence, one of them is a friend and the second my sister. This episode enlighten me when it comes to the psyche of someone going through it and while I was supportive I just didn’t understand their conflictive emotions. Also this episode just introduced to me Mia Yim as a human, what she likes and how hard she has fought to be where she is, not to mention she’s one of the best performers in WWE today so it wasn’t hard to see why WWE signed her when the opportunity presented itself. My respect to both Mia and Lillian for talking about such a difficult topic, but one that is far too common sadly.

Amazing podcast!
As we celebrate Veterans Day today I decided to listen to the JR Martinez episode. I came across this podcast a year ago and have been listening to episodes on and off. Two weeks ago I decided to start from the beginning as I exercise. Boy am I glad I did. I love how real and inspiring each guest is. JR is truly a good example of what inspires us as Americans from his calling to serve to his continued work with veterans. Cannot wait to continue to listen to all the past episodes and find out more about all the guests interviewed. Thank you Lillian for an amazing podcast to listen to!

Such an Engaging and Deep Podcast!
A late arriver to this podcast but I’m making up for lost time! So glad I found this podcast! Lilian is such a wonderful personality and her interviews are all so engaging! I started with the Kofi 100th episode as I love his story, and before I knew it, I was on a binge of chasing glory episodes! I love how deep Lilian’s interviews go and how open her guests always get. The Johnny Gargano and Candice Michelle ones were two other episodes that really resonated with me but they are all so great! I highly recommend this podcast to anyone who enjoys a good interview and engaging stories on life and it’s struggles/successes! -Sazid K.

Chasing glory podcast.
I’ve never been a podcast listener until one of my wrestling friend told me to listen to your podcast. WOW I am hooked. I’ve alway have been a fan since I was 8 years old. Just really never ever thought about the superstars that you have on your show having everyday issue. We as fans only see the in ring stuff. But the first one I listen to was Tamina Sunka. Just hearing her story about her father and raising her boys. Your podcast is by far the best. I always look for the next one to download and see who the guest is. I love how you don’t just have wwe folks but you have a everyone or anybody on your show. Keep it up I love your show. Because it’s real raw and inspiring. Note. My brother and I meet you in Nashville at a show you took a photo with us. Thank you for that. Josh Shelton

Lacie Evans Episode
I produce the Department of Veterans Affairs’ official podcast, “Borne the Battle.” I was doing research a couple of months ago and I ran into a YouTube clip of Lilian’s interview with Lacie Evans. At the time, Lilian was the only one to have had an in-depth interview with Lacie. Last night I finally listened to the entire episode. The rawness, the emotion and the honesty in that interview - 1. Gave me a new understanding of Lacie, a fellow Marine and 2. Gave me a new appreciation of Lilian as an interviewer. I look forward to listening to more episodes and drawing from Lilian as a podcast inspiration. If you haven’t listened to that episode yet, it should be the next one in your que...WOW!

Best Women wrestlers ever
Lilian Garcia is 100% Perfect
Lilian Garcia is the best podcast person ever because I loved the way she interviewed Kofi Kingston. I want to hear more podcasts of her interviewing the Riott Squad and see if they have a chance to speak their heart. One thing I like about Lilian Garcia is I know about her doing the ring announcing for Monday night raw and she is 100% perfect person in the entire world. Listen to her podcast and let everyone’s voice be heard.

A conversation between friends
I decided to listen to this podcast after seeing a list of the guests that were booked. I listened for about two episodes and became hooked. (I subscribed immediately) What I really enjoy about this podcast is not only the professional wrestling guests that are on the show, but how the interviews transpire. Some episodes come across more as old friends catching up then a question and answer type interview. I plan to continue to be a long time listener.
