The Black Man's Roundtable is a media network currently consisting of three podcasts: The "Black Man's Roundtable" podcast (the "Flagship" podcast); The "Local Lookout" with Rodney & Bobby podcast; and the "Roundup" with Rodney & Rodney podcast.
The BMR is a space where we discuss some of the most important issues of the day affecting Black men and our communities. We focus on local issues in metro Atlanta GA, but we also stay engaged with national and international issues.
We do what we do to keep our community woke and engaged. Our community is the most undervalued and most marginalized community in the country and we are sick and tired of it!
Rodney Butler welcomes a special guest or a panel to discuss important issues affecting our Black communities such as politics, mental health, business ownership, education, criminal justice, community leadership, veterans issues, and much more! "See you in them suites and them streets!"
On this segmented podcast, Rodney and Bobby X. Fryer welcomes a special guest, breaks down a civics lesson, and discuss a hot topic! "We'll be on the lookout!"
On this segmented podcast, Rodney and Rodney J. Littles welcomes a special guest, discuss a hot topic, and shine a bright light on a host spotlight topic! "We'll keep roundin' 'em up!"
"Anthem of the Unheard: Breaking the Chains". An original song by Rodney Butler written as the theme song for the Black Man's Roundtable Podcast.
