Talk Show Description

Welcome to Let’s Talk About The Music

Hello, I’m Shels L Pix Honeysuckle, and welcome to Let’s Talk About The Music (LTATM) — a live radio talk show centered on music, creativity, and the people who shape local and global scenes.

This isn’t just another music talk show. LTATM is a space for real, in-depth conversations about the stories behind the songs, the experiences that shape artists, and the role music plays in our lives. With both academic training and hands-on experience, I’ve spent years studying music as both an art form and a cultural force.

What the Show Is About

Every episode of Let’s Talk About The Music is a conversation.

Sometimes that conversation is with musicians.
Sometimes with industry professionals.
Sometimes it’s a focused discussion on a topic that matters.

What makes LTATM different is that guests aren’t treated as simple interview subjects — they become conversation partners. Together, we explore a topic chosen by the guest, looking at its history, influence, and relevance today before shifting into their personal journey and creative perspective.

This show is not about press cycles, tour announcements, or quick promo spots. Instead, LTATM focuses on meaningful themes such as:

• the healing power of music

• mental health and creativity

• representation and inclusion in the industry

• the human experiences behind the art

These conversations go beyond music — they explore the people who create it.

Podcast & Radio Format

• Live broadcast: Tuesdays, 9–10 PM (PST)

• Occasional extended episodes: Up to two hours for special discussions

• On-demand: Episodes are available after broadcast via audio and video platforms

LTATM is recorded live for radio and later made available on-demand, maintaining the authenticity and energy of real-time conversation.

LTATM Blogs

Every episode is accompanied by a blog post on the official LTATM website. These posts:

• Summarize the episode discussion

• Highlight guest co-hosts

• Include links to artist websites and social platforms

Blogs help extend the conversation beyond the broadcast.

Background & Experience

I spent six years studying podcasting and broadcasting at KGRG FM and KGRG1, while earning my AAA in Business Management at Green River College. That foundation shaped how I approach the show — blending thoughtful storytelling with an understanding of the music industry.

I am continuing my education at Central Washington University (CWU), further expanding my work in media, broadcasting, and music-focused storytelling.

The Journey Forward

I’ve spent years shaping Let’s Talk About The Music into something intentional — a show that values depth over hype and conversation over noise.

As LTATM continues to grow, I’m exploring new ways to make the show more interactive, including expanded audience engagement and future live Q&A opportunities.

The journey is still unfolding, and I’m glad you’re here.
