‘It’s Still Our City’ Podcast | Episode 1: Broad Street Bullies

“Broad Street Bullies, it’s like an anomaly. It’s like a, it’s interesting. It’s like a self-supporting entity. There’s either a lot of love for the situation, or there’s like a lot of just sort of misguided, like non-understanding about it. And I’ve always thought it was such a cool thing. I remember the first time encountering them, I was on Broad. I was trying to go to GWARbar, I believe, and they hit me like a tide. And I had never seen anything fucking like that. It was intimidating.” — host, Harrison Christy


Broad Street Bullies was born in 2020, a rough-and-tumble experiment to bring together friends, strangers, and anyone else who needed a break from the grind. A place to blow off steam, forget the nonsense, and just have some fun. At the center of it all is Salad—the man, the myth.


RVA Magazine presents It’s Still Our City, a podcast hosted by Harrison Christy and with Clair Morgan as co-host and producer through NODDERLY. It’s an unfiltered dive into what gives Richmond, VA its edge, its charm, and its soul. If you’ve ever wondered what makes this city tick, this one’s for you.
