Edit: Programs I enjoy are

* Howlin' the Blues - Sunday: 2:00 - 4:00pm

A contemporary blues program showcasing the continued evolution of the blues genre. Expect to hear the latest and best new blues releases, with an occasional trip to the blues vault to honor where it all came from. Program highlights include information on artists' backgrounds and their careers, educational historic blues tidbits, as well as live in-house interviews and performances by local and national touring artists. The music calendar, compiled weekly by The Blues Hound, is arguably one of the most comprehensive listings in the greater Houston area. In an effort to spotlight the area's vibrant live music scene, many of these upcoming performances, as well as ticket giveaways, are show mainstays. It's like The Blues Hound always says, "If you don't tune in and you miss something, it's your own damn fault".
hosts: 'The Blues Hound' & 'Baby Girl'

* Spare Change - Saturday: Noon - 3:00pm

Spare Change is a music program that uses artists that are seldom heard together.
There is no format to speak of, but the focus of the production is to allow the listener to participate in a form of "free association." Tune in anytime during the show and allow your senses to be treated to a variety of sounds and rhythms that make your world a more interesting place to be. -
