"The bubbly breakout star...“Getting Curious” is not the venture of a new star seeking to capitalize on his fame; rather, it’s an opportunity for Van Ness to ask questions about the world and spotlight experts in fields that don’t tend to get the red carpet treatment. Every episode is delivered with Van Ness’s trademark irreverent humor and sass..."

"If you love Jonathan Van Ness's ridiculously infectious positivity on Queer Eye, you'll love it even more in his personal podcast Getting Curious. Each show clocks in around the 40 to 60 minute mark, making it perfect for some time on the treadmill or while stuck in traffic."

"His breadth of knowledge is a testament to the importance of lifelong learning. On Getting Curious, it’s clear he’s mastered the Terry Gross–ian art of pretending to know less than he actually does, in order to serve as a surrogate for those in the audience who may be less knowledgeable, without ever condescending to them. But Van Ness’ greatest talent on Getting Curious may be weaving his newfound strips of knowledge into a larger tapestry of understanding of the world. It’s an approach based in humility and engagement."
