I played around with Mad Genius Radio briefly this morning. Seems like a cool idea in that you can mix genres and even throw in some requests….
There is a clever on-demand aspect to Mad Genius Radio as well — it’s a Request feature. The platform can offer dozens of hit tracks called Guilty Pleasures that the user requests, and those songs will get programmed into the mix. Unlike a truly interactive service, you cannot play them on instant demand or save them.

I struggled a little bit with the main page interface, but not enough to share me away, and all of a sudden I figured it out. I found the songs to be “what I wanted.” The overall experience so far has been good enough that I haven’t closed it out.
I’m using it on the Macbook right now but there is an App which will be making it to my phone as soon as I get out of this comfy chair.

While I have everyone’s attention – I still need a hockey show, a soccer show and a basketball show for Alt Sports Talk. If you know someone please put them on my radar. Thanks!
