…and, we’re back!! After taking a bit of a holiday break, Blerd Radio is back and kicking off our second season! For the new season’s first episode, I brought in longtime friends Carletta and GG , and we were joined by our buddy (and Blerd Radio newcomer) Brittany . Over the course of 90 minutes, we cover a ton of pop-culture related topics, including: -The upcoming 10th season of “American Idol” and what it means for the future of the show. -Whether “Black […]

Blerd Radio Episode 8: Me, Grandpaw Jimmy & The Mysterious Celebrity Porno Renter
For Blerd Radio Episode 8, I turned to Jimmy , who hosts his own show entitled “Funny Like Car Accident Funny”. Over a wide ranging hour, we combined to bellyache about pertinent issues including: -Christine O’Donnell’s love of witchcraft. -Our need for a publicist to get us on “Real Time with Bill Maher” -What happens when Derek Jeter’s contract runs out at the end of this season (you think perhaps us talking about the Yanks was a bad luck charm?) -Whatever […]
Blerd Appreciation: Kashif
Somewhere over the course of the hour and twenty minutes that me and my friend Jimmy blabbed (don’t worry, we taped the results and called it Blerd Radio Episode 8…posting soon) on Sunday night, the name “Kashif” came up, and I immediately resolved to do a piece on one of the most popular (and influential) producers of the early Eighties. Although he recorded five albums for Arista Records over the course of a decade (and scored a handful of R&B chart […]
Blerd Radio Episode 6: The Drunkcast
Blerd Radio is back after a short hiatus. We’re still trying to nail down the right je ne sais quoi (is that spelled right?) so we’re playing with different time slots and host combinations. This week, I jumped from my friend Jim’s “Funny Like Car Accident Funny” podcast right into my own show-so I was warmed up, in more ways than one. There was definitely a higher level of intoxication happening than on your average podcast, but me, Jim and my friend Will still managed to […]
Blerd Radio Episode 5: Hot & Bothered
You can listen to or download Episode 5 here . Hot? Because it was nice and toasty inside the office when I recorded this episode, and turning on the air conditioning would have resulted in a background noise even more annoying than listening to this hour-long monologue. Bothered? Maybe not so much. I was a little annoyed, but the show turned out to be less obnoxious or rude than I intended for it to be. Some things and people just aren’t […]
Blerd Radio Episode 4: Dude, You're in My Seat
Blerd Radio celebrates a milestone this week! Well, no we don’t. But I couldn’t think of a more dramatic way to introduce Episode 4 . On this episode, I am joined once again by my boy +LB, who was awakened out of peaceful slumber by a text from yours truly saying “Dude! The show starts in ten minutes!”. I am also joined by Jay, who hosts the much more professional (and funnier, and more drunken) Brink of Sanity Podcast . Not only is +LB my first […]
Blerd Radio Episode 3: The Disappearance of LeBron James
Blerd Radio Episode 3: The Disappearance of LeBron James . For some reason, WordPress will not led me embed the Blogtalkradio code into my posts. This pisses me off. A lot of you reading are way more computer savvy than I am (quiet as kept…I’m kinda dumb), so if you could lend a blerd a hand and help me figure this out, that would be groovy. Anyway, after a three week absence, I have returned with Blerd Radio Episode 3. My guests for this episode are my buddies +LB […]
Blerd Radio Episode 2: Record Store Day?
This, folks, is a tale of two shows. Initially, what I’d planned in order to celebrate (however belatedly) Record Store Day, was a reunion of some of the cast that provided my first employment experience at Tower Records. That place was certainly not at a loss for characters. So the time came to record the show…and none of my Tower friends called in. So, the first half of the show is pretty much me improvising. I talk a little about […]
Blerd Radio Episode 1: Livin' La Vida Loca
While MisenPOPic Radio is on hiatus (congrats to my homie and co-host Mikey Hersh on the birth of his daughter), I decided to come up with my own podcast. It’s a little looser and I decided to go with the host-and-two-guests format rather than just the two co-hosts. Thus, Blerd Radio was born. While me and my boy GG did a quickie test episode last week, “Livin’ La Vida Loca” is the first real episode, and it again features GG as well as my girl […]
