  • Jackalope Tales – Rider In The Redrum

    Jackalope Tales – Rider In The Redrum
    Oct 1 2025
    Spooky season is in full swing on Jackalope Tales, and this October we’re handing out tricks, not treats. This week, we ride straight into the shadows with an episode all about musicians who died backstage. Charles unpacks the murder of Drakeo the Ruler, whose last show ended with flashing lights of a very different kind, while Lisa dives into the haunting story of Mark Sandman, the Morphine frontman who collapsed mid-set and never came back. It’s part true crime, part ghost story, and 100% Halloween-level creepy. Expect gallows humor, grim giggles, and enough macabre punchlines to make even the Grim Reaper crowd-surf. All October long, we’re bringing you the scary side of music — and this week, the encore is eternal. [Ep 106] Become a J-Lope and follow us on social media.

    Jackalope Tales – No Sherpa, No Shoes, No Service
    Sep 24 2025
    This week, Lisa and Charles throw on their metaphorical spurs and hike straight into the wild frontier of country-cowboy chaos. First up: the never-ending rodeo that is Gavin Adcock vs. Zach Bryan — beer, boots, and beefs flying in all directions. Then, just when you think the dust has settled, Charley Crockett rides into the fray to stir the pot even more. It’s part feud, part folk tale, and part barroom brawl — all with that signature Jackalope snark. Expect cowboy hats, hurt egos, and more drama than a honky-tonk jukebox on fire.

  • Jackalope Tales – Riot On The Set

    Jackalope Tales – Riot On The Set
    Sep 17 2025
    Things got messy on live TV — and we love it. In this episode, Charles revisits the infamous 1976 Sex Pistols interview with Bill Grundy, where Britain collectively clutched its pearls while punk officially announced itself to the world. Lisa brings the chaos stateside with the story of Jello Biafra and Tipper Gore going head-to-head on Oprah, turning daytime TV into a punk rock cage match over censorship, free speech, and the future of music. It’s spit, swears, and suburban moms fainting — just another day on Jackalope Tales. [Ep 104] Become a J-Lope and follow us on social media.

  • Jackalope Tales – The Last Encore Was A Riot

    Jackalope Tales – The Last Encore Was A Riot
    Sep 10 2025
    When the punks said “tear it up,” they weren’t talking about the setlist. In this episode, Charles dives headfirst into the chaos of a Dead Kennedys tour where things spiraled so far out of control that even Jello Biafra found himself on the wrong end of punk justice—blood, boots, and betrayal. Meanwhile, Lisa unpacks a festival hosted by GBH that turned into an all-out war zone once the police showed up swinging. What started as a show became a street riot that blurred the line between concert and combat. It’s punks versus cops, bands versus mayhem, and somehow, the audience versus Jello. Buckle up—this encore doesn’t end with applause, it ends with sirens. [EP 103] Become a J-Lope and follow us on social media.

  • Jackalope Tales – Summer of Shade: Happy Luber Day!

    Jackalope Tales – Summer of Shade: Happy Luber Day!
    Sep 3 2025
    This Labor Day, Charles and Lisa are clocking in for overtime shade. In Happy Luber Day, they dig into the Diddy trial that promised fireworks but fizzled out like a damp sparkler. From the anticlimactic courtroom twists to the odd details that leaked out along the way, nothing is off limits. Join the jackalopes as they unpack the spectacle, laugh at the letdowns, and ask why all that build-up led to a finish flatter than day-old champagne.

  • Jackalope Tales – Keepin’ It Hundid

    Jackalope Tales – Keepin’ It Hundid
    Aug 27 2025
    It finally happened—Jackalope Tales hit the big leagues: episode 101. That’s right, not only did we survive 100 episodes without getting sued, canceled, or abducted by aliens, but we’re still here keepin’ it hundid. In this special celebration, Charles and Lisa pull back the curtain on the origin of the podcast, share some of their favorite bizarre and darkly funny episodes, and reveal the chaos (and questionable life choices) that go into making this thing every week. Expect behind-the-scenes stories, a few regrets, and more than a couple laughs at our own expense. Because if we’ve learned anything from 101 episodes, it’s that jackalopes may be mythical—but the mess is real. [EP 101] Become a J-Lope and follow us on social media.

  • Jackalope Tales – Exit Strategy, My Career

    Jackalope Tales – Exit Strategy, My Career
    Aug 20 2025
    In this episode of Jackalope Tales, Charles and Lisa explore the musical equivalent of signing your own death certificate: inking a deal with a major label. Charles dives into the heartbreaking saga of Badfinger—where bad contracts, greed, and tragedy turned one of rock’s brightest hopes into a cautionary tale. Lisa shifts gears to the underground, showing how the raw power of bands like Drive Like Jehu and Rocket From The Crypt fizzled once they got pulled into the major label machine. It’s an episode about ambition, betrayal, and how the wrong “big break” can break you for good. [EP 100] Become a J-Lope and follow us on social media.

  • Jackalope Tales – Exit Stage Me

    Jackalope Tales – Exit Stage Me
    Aug 13 2025
    Some performers leave the stage to thunderous applause. Others are escorted out by security while the crowd wonders if this is part of the act. In this episode, Lisa spills the hay-bale-scented tea on Dylan Marlowe, who somehow managed to get booted from a country music festival where he was supposed to be working. Meanwhile, Charles saddles up with tales of Waylon Jennings—legend, outlaw, and apparently a repeat offender when it comes to getting thrown out of his own gigs. It’s a honky-tonk parade of bad decisions, big egos, and backstage exits you don’t come back from. [EP 99] Become a J-Lope and follow us on social media.
