Beard Radio started as a collaboration highlighting the best in roots rock reggae ethos, featuring punk, jazz, soul, indie and alternative rock and other protest music from all eras and regions. We play classic albums from little known artists as well as a compendium of mixed tape tracks. I actually do not have a phenomenally crazy beard by today's Portland, Oregon craftbeer-drinking lumberjack-hipster standards, but it has nothing to do with the music, so listen Fridays at 10pm & Mondays at 8pm.

Chris has lived on the island since 2009.  He has experience in jumping out of perfectly good airplanes, invading small countries and setting up puppet governments; none of which will be of any use as a radio host for the weekly radio program airing Monday afternoons at 1pm (AKST) on 89.7 FM KUCB.  So just tune in.

Tune in on Wednesday evenings from 8 to 9 PM for Josh's show "Good Enough." The show attempts to follow a theme to avoid complete randomness, and it is usually an hour of great rock, both new and old, and an eclectic mix of tunes from other genres. The music might not be great, but its Good Enough!

Kristin grew up overseas and has since developed a love for eclectic musical styles from various cultures.  She likes the outdoors, photography and is an avid steel drum musician.
