Big Herm is cooking up a storm. Chicken sizzles on top of the grill in front of him. Potatoes dunk into the rolling boils of oil. Buns toast in the oven below. In the robust grills, fryers, and ovens of Big Herm’s Kitchen, the machinery keeps the galley kitchen feeling like a sweaty summer. By the door, boxes are filled to the brim with the best...
It's a tough time to be alive here in the United States. From eroding civil rights to prices that are spiraling upwards and leaving wages in the dust, things are getting tougher for ordinary people. In light of this unfortunate situation, RVA Mag has partnered with two different local charities to launch fundraisers this week. Today, we've...

As much as I don’t belong here, I do. Back where I grew up, during a light summer rain, frogs used to get run over by cars in the street in front of my house. Sometimes I’d trot out to the asphalt to look at the smear left behind. Each frog, like a spoonful of green bean casserole, made flat as a Communion wafer. After a full day in the...
I wasn’t expecting to get a phone call from Lewis Black on 4/20. I thought it was a telemarketer and almost didn’t pick up the phone. This though, I quickly reconsidered.
