Maroon 5 make me wanna dance! I’m a casual fan of Adam Levine and company. I think I own one album by them? I watch The Voice. He’s my favorite judge. But again, I’m a casual fan. “Moves Like Jagger” is the kind of song that would prompt me to become something more than a casual fan, though. Did I mention that fellow The Voice judge Christina Aguilera lends her spectacular pipes to the bridge? The song takes the best […]

The Viewfinder-Cee Lo Green Wants You
I’ve got to give props to team Cee-Lo Green. They have been trying their damndest to give the man some recognition beyond the “Fuck You” song. Unfortunately, although The Lady Killer is an excellent album (and “FU” isn’t even the best-or second best-song on it), the shadow of that song looms so large that it’s been a serious struggle getting anything else noticed. Enter “I Want You”, which is The Lady Killer‘s (counts…) fourth single? Fifth? At any rate, it’s […]
The Viewfinder: Maroon 5’s “Out of Goodbyes”
How about this one, folks? A Maroon 5 and Lady Antebellum collaboration that features not one member of either group in the video? Ladies and gentlemen, I present you “Out of Goodbyes”. I may have been remiss in calling Maroon 5’s Hands All Over a flop. It’s been certified Gold, and Adam Levine’s hosting gig on “The Voice” has re-energized the album, as it’s crept back into the Billboard Top 200 with a vengeance. This song, one of the better […]
The New Blerd Radio Episode 4: Sex & Violence
Girls-they run the world!! So Beyonce says, and Episode 4 of Blerd Radio puts that theory to the test. With five people talking in one room, things get a little interesting-aside from Blerd and Jesse, we are joined by Mrs. Jesse, Jesse’s BFF *sniff* Matt Cameron, bass player for Jack Burton vs. David Lo Pan and Matt’s wife, Liz. The girls lead us through a feisty few rounds of Fuck, Kill, Marry, we discuss the new releases of the week, Jesse gets a massive industrial hard-on, […]
The New Blerd Radio-Episode 3: May Flowers (Almost)
Episode 3 is in the books and on our latest podcast, Mike and Jesse discuss pop culture events including the new Beastie Boys album and video, Lady GaGa’s continued stranglehold on pop culture, and the debut of “The Voice”. Also discussed: “Fast 5” (which is out today) and it’s pretty cast, May’s potpourri of album releases, why no one should ever watch the first 10 minutes of “Up” , the rumored follow-up to “Garden State”, and Jesse gets the package […]
The New Improved Blerd Radio: Now with No Echo!
Not only has Jesse been a great addition to the Popblerd! staff, he’s also helped me revitalize the somewhat dormant Blerd Radio! (translation: I was a little too lazy to keep doing these myself.) Our first record was recorded last week, but fell victim to some serious audio issues; namely the fact that everything I said echoed. With audio issues fixed, we forged on ahead earlier this week and recorded a much more successful episode. Join Jesse and I as […]
