Legendary ND Talk Radio Host Brings His Show to BEK TV - 'What's On Your Mind' Begins June 18

6/16/2025 Breaking News

What’s On Your Mind will be available on local BEK TV channels across North Dakota (Channel Finder: www.bek.tv/channel-finder) and can also be watched live or on-demand via the BEK TV+ app. 

“This adds an exciting array of platforms for our audience to access our show, says Scott Hennen, Host of What’s On Your Mind.”

The show offers viewers a front-row seat to engaging, real-time conversations about the most pressing issues impacting North Dakota, South Dakota, Western Minnesota, and Eastern Montana. With Scott Hennen at the helm, What’s On Your Mind is a direct line to elected officials, thought leaders, and everyday citizens. The program invites listener call-ins, creating a dynamic and interactive experience where public opinion drives the discussion.

“BEK TV is committed to being a platform where the voices of the people lead the conversations,” said BEK TV Chief Operating Officer Jordan Hassler. “Adding a camera to the current What’s On Your Mind radio program allows us to give our viewers across the region a new way to connect with Scott and the issues that matter most to them.”

“BEK TV is a media force with a juggernaut of great content,” says Hennen. “What they have built is incredible. I am thrilled for the opportunity to join the lineup.” 

As the only completely unscripted and uncensored television network in North Dakota, BEK TV continues to uphold its commitment to free speech, encouraging open dialogue and honest debate across its growing slate of programs.

BEK TV is one of the only locally-owned, non-corporate television broadcasting networks remaining in the country and produces more local content than any other television station in the Midwest.  It broadcasts in North Dakota on over-the-air television and across the world via streaming on BEK TV+. 

The concept behind BEK TV’s programming is to provide a media service platform that is unscripted and uncensored.  The majority of BEK TV hosts are untrained broadcasters who share their perspectives and views on topics and issues that people are talking about.  The BEK network never controls the messaging.

BEK TV is the 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024 winner of the Bismarck Tribune’s Best of the Best contest, selected by the people for “Best Local TV Station”.  BEK TV host Lori Hinz is the winner of the 2024 “Best TV Personality” award.  Both were chosen by the people.
