Blerd Radio 2015 | Episode 13: Another Hall of Fame-Cast
Hello and welcome to another episode of Blerd Radio! In 2013 and 2014, we took time to talk about the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, its induction process, and that year’s crop of nominees. While there was talk about retiring the Hall of Fame-cast this year, 2015’s crop of nominees resulted in some of our most spirited conversation to date. Of course it helps that the gang’s all here: so join myself ( Big Money ), Dr. Z , Michael Parr and Mike Cunningham The Packet Man for an episode […]
Blerd Radio 2015 |Episode 12: The Janet & Madonna-Cast
About a year ago, we recorded a show discussing two legendary pop stars: Madonna and Janet Jackson. Then my Macbook died, taking the podcast with it. The release of Janet’s “Unbreakable” album made us realize that it was time to revisit the topic. So, here we are once again, talking Madge and Janet. Here’s some show notes for y’all: -We welcome Michael Parr back after a baby-related absence! (Although in true “the Lord giveth…” fashion, we’re missing The Packet Man this time around.) -I (Big Money) wrote […]

Blerd Radio 2015 | Episode 8: Appropriate This!
Piggybacking off of our last episode, in which Mike Cunningham The Packet Man jokingly stated that he was the leader of the Pittsburgh chapter of the NAACP, we ( Big Money, Dr. Z , Michael Parr and The Packet Man) decided to do a podcast about cultural appropriation. This is definitely more of a circular discussion (with no real conclusion) than many of our other podcasts, but it’s an interesting discussion. Some highlights: -We discuss what made us finally decide to pull the trigger on this discussion, with a special […]

Blerd Radio Podcast 2015 | Episode 5: Back In The Day (Part One)
The Blerd Radio team ( Big Money, Michael Parr , The Packet Man & Dr. Z ) created a lengthy (and pretty intense) podcast about being record geeks, a topic that’s pretty much the reason this podcast even exists. Then Big Money’s Macbook shit the bed (why am I talking about myself in the third person?), taking the podcast with it. After a couple weeks to regroup, the team is back and we’re talking about another topic near and dear to our hearts: nostalgia. This article is a good jumping off point for the podcast , as all three […]
Blerd Radio Travels To 1990 (Part 2!!)
(2015, Episode 4) Last week, I posted the first portion of our 2-part series celebrating all that was great (and a few things that weren’t) about 1990. While the first part focused heavily on film and TV, most of this second part is dedicated to our bread and butter-music. Here’s some of what gets discussed by Big Money , Michael Parr , Dr. Z and The Packet Man (Michael Cunningham) in this episode: The Milli Vanilli Lip Sync Scandal: And how no one thought it odd that people who barely […]
