Welcome to Discussions – The Full Spectrum, the flagship podcast from Discover YOU RADIO.
Each episode, we crack open the vault on today’s most compelling independent artists—artists who’ve waited months for a shot to have their song on this wildly popular program. Here, it’s about dissecting the craft, the story, and the impact behind the story of the artists song turning them into legendary legacies.
We kick things off with a spotlight on the artist and their featured song lyrics —giving you the backstory, the vibe, and the context you need to really sink into the music. But that’s just the beginning.
Next, we go deep. Hosts Robert Simmons and Rita Fox take you on a no-holds-barred Deep Dive, sharing their raw, unfiltered thoughts on the artist’s work. Expect sharp insights, honest reactions, and the kind of behind-the-scenes perspective you won’t hear anywhere else. Robert and Rita don’t just talk about the music—they live it.
But we don’t stop there. The Debate is where things get real. Hosted by Dakota Freeman and Lauren Miller, this segment is infamous for its dramatic, sometimes downright intense disagreements. They break down the subject matter of the song, challenge each other’s takes, and keep it 100% authentic. Sparks fly, opinions clash, and you get to hear every second of it.
Guiding the entire journey is executive producer Will Stenner—the mastermind behind Discover YOU RADIO. Will’s research game is next-level, using Notebook LM to dig deep into each artist’s story and every nuance of their music. His vision drives the show, curating conversations that go way beyond the surface.
Discussions – The Full Spectrum isn’t just a podcast. It’s where artists get their moment, where their lyrics gets the respect they deserve, and where listeners get the full story—raw, real, and unfiltered.

Souls Worn Thin
Will Stenner of Discover YOU RADIO discusses music and how Souls Worn Thin was able to obtain the licensing rights of Nirvana's popular song titled Breed.
Working Class with a punk sensibility
Souls Worn Thin is the contrivance of former Deepwater guitarist Stephen Wayne. Melodic rock/punk simmered in the grungy footprints of the Puget Sound. While SWT may not fit neatly into a single genre, they deliver an almost tangibly NW feel that vacillates between aggressive and cheeky. SWT offers a scathing rebuke of manufactured division permeating society with the same ferocity they rebuke craft beer.
A three piece (for now), SWT drummer Josh White (formerly of Lit End) is a heavy hitting all out beast on the kit. Guitarist turned bass player Cody Sanders (formerly of The Stravinsky Riots) came into the fold about ten minutes before Souls Worn Thin headed to Magic Mix studio to record their debut album “Kill Your T.V.”
The lost year of 2020 for music in the Pac NW turned out to be a gift for the newly formed band. Whilst the venues were on lock-down, Souls Worn Thin was busy working on their first album. Named after the title track, “Kill Your T.V.” was released on September 15th, 2021.
The local scene has a heavy influence on the guys. They try to get out to as many other local band's shows as often as they can. The scene took quite a beating during the last garbage sauce of a year; it's important to go to the shows, buy that band's t shirt, and over-tip your bartender.
This freshman offering is energetic, lyrically biting but snarky, and messy but motivated. The guys are already fleshing out the early stages of their next album which they plan to record back at Magic Mix Studios with the incomparable Daum Duo.

Tim Northburg is a man with an overactive imagination. This has led to him authoring multiple fiction and non-fiction books as well as screenplays that have won awards. He does not suffer from writer's block, instead he always has far too many ideas than he knows what to do with. He loves nothing more than sharing his creativity with others and hopes that people will enjoy reading his work in print and on the big screen.

“I am compelled to make music. I love the creative process of it. The ebb and flow of the art and above all, the story-telling”. These are the words that describe the work of Dodd Michael Lede and his most recent incarnation The DML Conspiracy.
Gathering world class musicians to his cause, Lede is always exploring the depths of his talent with a collection of music that not only navigates the diverse waters of rock, but transforms them into something unique and satisfying. Plundering a rich catalogue of inspirations, The DML Conspiracy migrate between classic rock renditions to a more traditional pop-rock sound that will appeal to audiences everywhere.

Keith Lyle was born and raised on the mean streets of Chicago. Well... It was the suburbs, but it was still tough. His house was filled with the loud, loving tirades of his family. Having been immersed in a 2 parent home, the yelling never stopped. Because of this, he had a difficult time fitting in at school.
Realizing that making people laugh is truly a gift that keeps on giving, Keith began to develop his strong sense of humor.
Keith's quick wit and topical material take you from the front page to inside his head, and the depth of his family's dysfunctions.
He has been in several commercials and TV shows, and films. His biggest role to date was having 4 lines in the blockbuster movie "The Hangover". He may have had more screen time as a dead body on CSI, but hey- it's 4 lines in a better movie than Tom Hanks made that year. He also has roles in the upcoming releases "Holding Lucid" directed by John Bizarre and "A Tribute to Fluffy" directed by Micah Cyrus.
Keith was honored to be selected as the feature act for headliner Don Barnhart. In the summer of 2012, Keith made his 1st trip overseas to entertain the troops in Kuwait. In 2013, he went to Afghanistan, Kyrgyzstan, Lebanon, Jordan, Spain, Portugal and Greece on 2 separate trips in the "Don Barnhart All Star Comedy Tour" for Armed Forces Entertainment. He went overseas again in October 2014 & August of 2016. Keith is one of the House Emcees at Jokesters Comedy Club and a regular performer at Delirious Comedy Club, both in Las Vegas.
He has also hosted a week each for the popular websites Tweet the Joke and Dear Comic and had the most online votes in the Improv's "Up Yours Contest in 2012. Keith is active on social media with over 85,000 Twitter followers, and countless friends on Facebook, Instagram and Google +. He is proud to have his social media feed is featured on the exclusive website WhoSay.com

Markus J
Markus J. became a part of Discover YOU RADIO's online radio station's playlist on February 2nd 2022 with his single called True Love in which he has written to his wife. True Love is part of an album titled From The Beginning.
From the Beginning is a collection of songs recorded in closets, offices, garages and anywhere we could put a microphone. The songs are a little rough and that is okay it is where my recordings started and although they are not as good as the new stuff I look back at them fondly.

MUSKEG MUDSUCK
Muskeg Mudsuck fell in love with the blues after reading Led Zeppelin liner notes, but it was a punk rock band called the Gun Club that turned him on to Mississippi Delta Blues. He's been enthralled with it ever since he first heard Johnny Shines. Over the years, he's been exposed to a lot of other music, and what comes out is this unique blend of sounds that can only be described as "Rock N Roll".
