Sportscasting legend James Brown on resilience, memorable career moments, athletic background & NFL Today on CBS

In 2009, host Bryant McFadden met longtime sports broadcaster James Brown at the NFL's media bootcamp for active players. BMac used that advice from JB and now has this podcast where he gets to interview one of his mentors and one of the icons of the business. The two discuss everything from Brown's athletic background to the challenges of being a minority in the industry. They cover JB's life and career from trying out for the Hawks, appearing on Married...with Children and being the first person to interview Michael Vick after his release from jail. James shares a project that he's working on with Tony Dungy and how we can continue to take steps in the fight for social justice. Finally, we learn some insight on the cast of the NFL Today on CBS.  Check out Beyond the Game from Tony Dungy and James Brown: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCio5hXSCphLfejRZ_Y-cTZA 'All Things Covered' is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Castbox and wherever else you listen to podcasts.  You can listen to All Things Covered on your smart speakers!

Om Podcasten

Patrick Peterson and Bryant McFadden have made a living for their coverage skills on the football field, and while it's a different technique, they're now applying those traits on their podcast 'All Things Covered'. Instead of wide receivers, tight ends and running backs, they'll be covering sports, entertainment, social issues, personal interests and more. Every Wednesday, the 8-time Pro Bowler Peterson and 2-time Super Bowl champion McFadden will discuss what's happening on the gridiron as well as what intrigues them off the field. Each week they'll welcome a star from the sports and entertainment world to have wide-ranging conversations about what interests them. Guests can include active or former football players but also athletes and influencers from other sports and walks of life. Football is how we know our hosts, but far from what defines Pat and BMac. The name says everything; expect all things to be covered! You can also watch us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/AllThingsCovered
