The Mr. Be Show
Mr. Be plays what he wants.
Somehow, it works.
Four hours of alternative radio with the guardrails removed.
The Mr. Be Show is the live side of Extremely Gen X Radio: new wave, post-punk, grunge, indie, synthpop, electronic crossover, deeper cuts, personal favorites, strange connections, and whatever else feels right once the mic is on.
It is not a request jukebox. It is not a corporate countdown. It is more like digging through a record collection with someone who has opinions, stories, and no interest in sanding off the edges.
Show Segments
Connect 3
Three songs. One hidden connection. Sometimes obvious. Sometimes ridiculous. Always more fun when the audience starts arguing with confidence.
This Is Your Life
A guided trip through an artist’s career using key songs, strange turns, breakthrough moments, and the stuff that made them matter.
Interesting Covers
Covers that do more than copy the original. Reinventions, curveballs, loving damage, and occasionally a version that should not work but does.
Weekly Discoveries
Fresh finds, newer tracks, recent obsessions, and songs that earned their way into the pile during the week.
Freeplay
No theme. No explanation required. Just the part of the show where the only rule is: it sounded like the right song to play next.
