I do not know what this orchid is. A family member gave it to me and his is about 2.5-3' tall right now. I guess the thing just constantly produces keiki and so he gave me the second pot from the original.

It seems to bloom pretty consistently, though I haven't had it for too long. The leaves are getting a little discolored here and there, but I can't tell since I don't know what this is.

Thanks in advance for any thoughts...

Looks like a reed stem epidendrum.

Yep. Epidendrum radicans or (more likely) one of its hybrids. Lovely plant!

This is an Epidendrum. Possibly a species.

Beautiful epidendrum and they are tough as nails. They flower for months and months at a time. I have quite a few and some of them are never out of bloom.
