The business podcast that’s literally underground
The Venue Underground is hosted in a converted nuclear fallout shelter by Kate Dear, 7-figure startup founder, Carnegie Mellon MBA, and social media star in the wedding and historic renovation industries with 1M+ followers.
20 feet underground, history is alive.
Tucked beneath the ballroom of a 120-year-old bank-turned-wedding venue lies our podcast studio inside a nuclear fallout shelter. What once stored Cold War era survival supplies now echoes with conversations on scaling seven-figure wedding venues, reviving historic spaces and celebrating the visionaries who make it happen. Descend the grand staircase, push through the steel hatch, and join us where heritage meets high-impact storytelling.
