The Blues Hotel – Authentic Blues. Real Stories.
Hosted by Kelvin Huggins
After an unexpected break, The Blues Hotel swings open its doors once again, inviting blues lovers back inside for two soul-drenched hours of real, authentic blues. Hosted by Kelvin Huggins, this show is a heartfelt journey through the music that shaped generations—from legendary pioneers to modern-day torchbearers.
Each episode blends classic cuts with new discoveries, celebrating the raw emotion, resilience, and deep storytelling that define the blues. Whether it’s heartbreak, hard times, or hard-earned joy, The Blues Hotel captures the full spectrum of human experience with a soundtrack to match.
Listeners can settle in with segments like Backstory Blues, Then and Now, and Live at the MBAS, showcasing everything from Elmore James and Buddy Guy to Blackstone Cherry and the Justin Yap Trio. Along the way, discover the global reach of the blues—from Mississippi to Melbourne—and hear the voices keeping it alive today.
Part of the Blues Hotel Collective, the show is expanding with a brand-new website, exclusive merch, and a 24/7 streaming blues service. Join us weekly and keep the spirit alive—because the heart of the blues, it never stops beating.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
