Episode 155

What do beer tunnels, a Cold War bunker, a buried city, a salt mine, and an underground citrus garden have in common?

They're all hidden beneath our feet.

This week we're exploring five fascinating underground destinations across America, each with an incredible story to tell.

We'll visit:

  • Cincinnati's historic lagering tunnels beneath Over-the-Rhine
  • The secret Cold War bunker hidden beneath The Greenbrier Resort
  • Strataca, the underground salt mine museum in Kansas
  • Seattle's buried original downtown
  • The remarkable Forestiere Underground Gardens in Fresno, California

Along the way, we'll discover how these places were created, why they still matter today, and why some of America's most memorable stories aren't only found on the skyline, but beneath it.

Whether you're planning your next road trip or simply love uncovering forgotten history, this episode will have you looking beneath your feet the next time you travel.
