Hello! I’m MG the Venue Specialist, host of Beyond the Venue Podcast! We recorded Season 1 in the Spring of 2021 to elevate stories from my friends in the hospitality and entertainment world whose careers and businesses were impacted by the pandemic. It is now the Fall of 2021, and this collective trauma is still ongoing. Season 2 features several of my colleagues from the hospitality and event industry, as well as teachers and professors from a variety of disciplines. I interview other podcast hosts, storytellers, bartenders, parents and everything in between! I’ve asked my guests to share their stories and experiences, and they absolutely blew me away with what they have been able to accomplish. Just like Season 1, my guests and I dive into some serious topics, but we have no shortage of humor and entertainment in store for our listeners. I want you to feel like you’re having a beverage with us - sharing stories and learning from one another. Season 2 starts Friday, October 1st and new episodes will be released every Friday!
