"813 is a Russian multistyle producer and firefighter, who think of your ears and souls". Not quite sure what that means but you can listen to their music here.

817 is the 17th centred hexagonal number. You probably don't need telling by now, but that means that 817 dots can be arranged in the shape of a hexagon with one dot in the middle and 16 surrounding layers.

821 is the first number in a prime quadruplet - a group of four primes of the form {p, p+2, p+6, p+8}. In other words, 821, 823, 827 and 829 are all prime. (This is the first occurrence of a prime quadruplet after p = 191.)

I'm not sure, but I've got an unusual one for 823 so I'll continue...
The "money bags" hoax email, which has been circulating since 2010, takes the form of a claim that "this year, July [or some other month] has 5 Fridays, 5 Saturdays and 5 Sundays. This happens only once every 823 years". (In fact it happens about once every seven years on average.)

824 - The first digit is a product of the second two individually, and also a factor of the second two together. I just spotted that.
