The Heaviest Theater Show - Andries Beckers

Andries Beckers is a radio presenter (Studio Brussel) and podcaster (Welcome To The AA). Thirty years ago, he told a small lie to be able to play with his favorite punk band and thereby gave his life an unexpected turn. A life journey that consisted of sleeping on strange floors, playing as if it were your last night, and the stubborn belief that adventure is always worth more than certainty. He has now bundled all those adventures into a moving but also funny theater show that is recognizable to everyone. This performance is for everyone from 16 years old. Andries Beckers is a man of many talents. He is a guitarist, podcast host, radio presenter, sports commentator, and is in possession of a blue belt in Brazilian jiujitsu. Oep z’n bakkes! The general public knows Andries best as the host of Welcome To The AA. Together with Alex Agnew, he talks to interesting people every week. From scientists to athletes and everything in between, as long as they have a good story to tell. The podcast reaches more than 450,000 listeners monthly and has been the unbeatable number one in the Flemish podcast charts for years. Another constant in his life is metal. Andries has had a career as a guitarist in the successful metal bands Born From Pain, The Setup, and Diablo Blvd. Meanwhile, he is one of the references in our country when it comes to the genre. Since 2025, he has hosted De Zwaarste Show on Studio Brussel every week. On top of that, Andries is co-host of the podcast Oep z’n bakkes, a show about Mixed Martial Arts. You can also hear him regularly as a commentator for combat sports on PlaySports. Moreover, he is a reserve stadium announcer at Royal Antwerp FC (a.k.a. Den Antwerp). organization Working Class Heroes / © KREW Collective andriesbeckers.be
