I agree with everyone. Kid carson is f'ng annoying as hell...
but a positive note, i do enjoy the "things that sounds dirty in sports but aren't".. hilarious stuff...
I just checked their site to see what they look like and "Nicole Sacco" looks pretty cute.. haha..she's on weekends. http://thebeat.com/shows/nicole-sacco | |

The beat sucks big cock. Back when it started, It was a pure urban hip-hop radio, similar to the stations in Toronto, playing Canadian underground tracks. Now they play bullshit Kelly Clarkson and Akon. Fuck the Beat. Stupid bitch ass programming director needs to be beat the fuck on with a bat.

Went to the event today, it was actually pretty fun. Free chicken and rice from Nando's chicken (heres the Free PR they wanted) so that was definitely worth it too.

Fucking station went to hell.
I listen to The Jeff O'Neil Show in the morning.

You guys are calling Kid Carson an uneducated ignorant asshole... and then in the next breath saying that the Jeff O'Neill show is the place to be? Talk about the pot calling the kettle black LOL!!! He's the epitome of the crotchety old man down the street who thinks everything was done better in the past and the phrase "come on man" is the best argumentative counterpoint that can be made.

Once you are off Oak St. bridge... going down highway 99 at a 140ish clip will get you to white rock in 15-20 minutes. Just getting out of Vancouver that is the hard part.

Truly, I just want to listen to music. So I tend to listen to Crave. I'm beginning to like the variety they have and the lack of lengthy pop-culture discussions.
The beat has an awful programming director. Blame the CRTC all you want but there is no excuse for playing "There's a hole in my bucket" or whatever 6 or 7 times a day.
I'd love to listen to Kube93.3 but I don't have the slightest clue how you guys are getting any receptions.
Really, once the city goes wireless, I will find a way to stream my music using shoutcast or any website station. The variety will even trump satellite radio.

Kev | At 140 km/h it would actually be under 15 minutes to White Rock.
Its only 40 km from downtown to White Rock

The Beat still has signs of its early days...late Friday nights, a couple of the in-house DJ's play urban hip-hop that would never be in that crap-pop day lineup. I wanna try Kube as well, but my clock radio either gets JRFM or Red FM.
And Crave is now Virgin Radio...

^ There's lots of stuff that I'd never heard unless I listened that late.
My online radio source is di.fm - There's several genres of electro/techno/trance music on that site, and it had covered ASOT 400.

I always hear a clip of a guy saying "digitally imported" during asot mixes too, haha

Its only 40 km from downtown to White Rock | 140km/hr = 2.33 km/min
40 km = 17.14 min
Solution to get 40 km in under 15 minutes is to go 160+
