Hosts Nick and Christine welcome V Spehar, TikTok star, award-winning journalist, and the voice behind Under the Desk News. With over 3 million followers and recognition on the TIME100 Creators list, V has redefined how news can be shared accessible, compassionate, and authentic.
In this episode, V shares their journey from Brooklyn to Rochester, their experiences balancing fame with everyday life, and how theater and hospitality shaped their journalistic style. The conversation dives into topics like AI, Rochester’s food scene, and why V has truly fallen in love with the Flower City.
Our sit-down with V even sparked something bigger: a “day in the life” feature in (585) magazine where Nick and Christine explored Rochester with V from coffee at Café Sasso, art at the George Eastman Museum, shopping at Peppermint Boutique, to lunch at Dorado.
