This week on Roswell Brew Talks, we’re joined by Anne Brandenburg and Joyce McNally of BodyRok North Georgia—and this episode also kicks off our new sub-series, Women Who Lead . This once-a-month series highlights incredible women making an impact and leading in our community.

BodyRok North Georgia is a Pilates-inspired strength workout and fitness studio located inside Southern Post. What truly sets them apart is their corporately programmed workouts—different every day of the week, each designed to target a specific area of the body.

On this episode, we talk about why it was important to create a fitness experience that goes beyond the traditional Pilates audience, intentionally serving both stay-at-home parents and busy working professionals. That commitment shows up in their expanded class schedule, with options as early as 5:30 a.m. and as late as 7:30 p.m., all with the goal of serving as many people in the community as possible.

This week on Roswell Brew Talks, we’re leaning into the season of giving with a feel-good, do-good episode.

We’re joined by Pastor Gerald Fadayomi of Home Church—a newer church in Roswell with a deep commitment to serving our community. From supporting Title I schools right here in Roswell to hosting services at Vickery Mill Elementary, Home Church is leading with purpose and impact.

In this episode, we talk about their powerful FOR Days, the importance of third spaces, and their newest community-driven project, Social House. It’s an inspiring conversation about faith, service, and making a real difference in our great city.

Tune in and be encouraged. 

This week on Roswell Brew Talks, we’re joined by Dr. Mamdani and Dr. Bhattacharya from Wellstar North Fulton Medical Center — Roswell’s largest employer and an incredible asset to our community. 💙🏥

As the RBT sponsor, Wellstar gave us the privilege of hearing directly from these outstanding physicians about the life-changing work happening in their Cardiovascular and Orthopedic surgery practices right here in Roswell.

From patient care to community impact, their dedication is truly inspiring.

This week on Roswell Brew Talks, we’re joined by Reena and Jeff Barber — the new owners of Hugo’s Oyster Bar, a longtime Roswell staple.

After taking over about a year ago, they set out with a clear mission: honor everything the community already loves about Hugo’s — from the freshest Gulf oysters to its beloved Cajun-coastal vibe — while thoughtfully shaping what comes next.

In this episode, they share why preserving Hugo’s history mattered, how they’ve embraced the Roswell community, and an exciting look at their nearly finished year-round, temperature-controlled patio renovation.

There’s a lot packed into this one — you don’t want to miss it.

This week we’re joined by Tod “Smiley” Baker of Carl Black and Teri Bell from Friends of the Roswell Police Department—and it’s packed with community spirit.

In this episode, we dive into Carl Black’s unwavering support of our Roswell community, highlighted through a special partnership with Friends of RPD.

We also share how, with help from BSBL Baseball, Carl Black is powering the Stuff-A-Truck Toy & Coat Drive, giving local families an extra dose of joy this season.

This week on Roswell Brew Talks, we flipped the script!
