The Chatter: The Richmond Experience Podcast
The Richmond Experience (@therichmondexperience) is your one-stop shop for what to eat, drink, see, and do in Richmond, Virginia – independently owned and created by locals, for locals. Listen to RVAx Owner and Chief Marketing Officer Paige Poprocky (@sipsandtripswithpaige) and RVAx Owner and Editor-in-Chief Kelsey Heintz (@kelseyheintzistyping) chit-chat – every week! – about the very best the River City has to offer, from recent openings and the latest trends to time-tested traditions and hidden gems. By the way, there’s more where that came from; joining The Richmond Experience as a member is the best way to stay in the know about what’s going on in RVA. Not to worry: We refuse to sell your info or bombard you with ads – but we do charge a small annual membership fee of $39/year to fund our team so we can keep doing this awesome work. Plus, a portion of each annual membership purchased for The Richmond Experience goes to rotating nonprofits each month! That’s, like, a dollar per week to get an all-access pass to the best of RVA *and* lift up local orgs – it’s a really, really good deal, friends. And listen, what’re friends for anyway?
