On the Horn

A New Chapter of Open Range with Gary Emineth

September 2025

BEK TV is excited to announce a brand-new feature of Open Range with Gary Emineth, now airing on Fridays at 9:00 p.m. CT. The new series, titled On the Horn, takes viewers on a unique journey through the lives of extraordinary people whose stories have shaped communities, history, and even the way we see the world.


Each On the Horn episode is a full hour dedicated to someone Gary has encountered throughout his life and career. These are not everyday interviews. Instead, they are in-depth conversations that uncover wisdom, share untold stories, and offer timeless advice. Many of the guests featured have never shared their experiences publicly, making this series a chance to preserve and pass down important lessons for generations to come.


While On the Horn will air in place of Open Range on Friday evenings, it does not replace the weekday program. Check out the debut episode on BEK TV+.


BEK TV continues its commitment to providing programming that not only informs but also uplifts and connects viewers with voices that matter.
