Jackalope Tales

Send us a textThis week on Jackalope Tales, we peel back the velvet curtain on the music industry's darkest backstage drama—abduction. In B-Sides and Blindfolds, Lisa unpacks the haunting and largely silenced story of pop singer Duffy, whose sudden disappearance from the charts hid a disturbing real-life mystery involving drugs, captivity, and silence. Meanwhile, Charles takes us on a wild ride through the botched, bizarre, and strangely polite kidnapping of Frank Sinatra Jr.—a crime so strange it left the Rat Pack rattled and the FBI baffled. From fame to fear, ransom notes to missed cues, this episode explores the times when the music didn't stop… it was forcibly paused.Support the showBecome a J-Lope and follow us on social media.

Send us a textJackalope Tales: Dead AirThis week, we turn the dial straight to the static. In Dead Air, Lisa dives into the explosive, real-life demise of controversial radio host Alan Berg—shot down in his driveway by white supremacists for refusing to shut up. Meanwhile, Charles takes us down the twisted rabbit hole of Casey Kasem's bizarre post-mortem journey: from beloved Top 40 DJ to a missing corpse in a Norwegian freezer, with a wild stop at a family feud straight out of a daytime soap opera. DJ deaths, both live and in reruns—because sometimes the airwaves never rest, even when the host does.Support the showBecome a J-Lope and follow us on social media.

Send us a textThis Easter, Jackalope Tales unseals the crypt of rock 'n' roll resurrection with an episode steeped in scandal, smoke, and sizzling fajitas. Charles and Lisa dig deep into the enduring myths that Jim Morrison faked his death to escape the fame machine—and ended up flipping burgers as a line cook at a Chili's in Austin. Meanwhile, they explore the infamous “Paul Is Dead” conspiracy, complete with backward messages, barefoot Abbey Road strolls, and the quiet horror of being replaced by a bass-playing doppelgänger.  From blurry photos outside karaoke bars to whispery EVP recordings of Morrison mumbling “baby back ribs,” this is an unholy mashup of Beatlemania, Lizard King lore, and deep-fried delusion. Resurrection never tasted so weird.Support the showBecome a J-Lope and follow us on social media.

Send us a textEpisode Title: “Don't Mess With Taxes”In this chaotic and surprisingly educational episode of Jackalope Tales, Charles and Lisa dive into the bizarre world of celebrity tax myths and misadventures. First up: rap sensation Ice Spice nearly misses the tax deadline and ends up filing her return at a Walmart Jackson Hewitt just before midnight—wearing Crocs and a hoodie, no less. Then things get weirder when the duo uncovers the legendary tale of John Mayer's alleged side hustle: jarring his own farts and selling them online to pay off a surprise tax bill. Is it all true, or just another fever dream from the internet's underbelly?

Send us a textIn this deliriously strange installment of Jackalope Tales, Charles and Lisa recount two celebrity sightings so surreal they have to be heard to be believed. First up: it's a sunny afternoon at the Fort Worth Stockyards when Morgan Wallen — yes, that Morgan Wallen — is spotted sprinting buck naked through the middle of the cattle drive like some kind of country music cryptid. Was it a bet? A breakdown? Or just a new kind of rodeo?Then things get even weirder as Charles stumbles into a CVS in New Orleans and finds none other than Tommy Lee and Pamela Anderson casually shopping like it's 1997. Naturally, Charles can't help but snoop on their basket… let's just say it's a mix of the mundane, the mystical, and the mildly concerning.Is any of it real? Does it matter? This is Jackalope Tales, where truth gets weird and weird gets legendary.Support the showBecome a J-Lope and follow us on social media.

Send us a textThis week on Jackalope Tales, Charles and Lisa dive into the eerie world of cursed recordings, starting with David Bowie's infamous Toy—an album that seemed doomed from the start, leaving a trail of bad luck and personal misfortune in its wake. But the curse talk doesn't stop there. Lisa shares her own chilling experiences recording the Toadies' Hell Below/Stars Above, an album plagued with enough strange occurrences to make even the most skeptical believer in bad mojo.And just when things couldn't get weirder, something—or someone—decides to mess with our audio equipment mid-episode.

Send us a textTop o' the trolling to ya! In this special Saint Patrick's Day edition of Jackalope Tales, Lisa and Charles raise a pint (of something strong) to two bands who dared to mess with Ireland's most self-serious frontman—Bono of U2. First, we dive into the legendary case of Negativland, the experimental sound collagists who poked the bear by releasing an album titled U2—complete with a bootlegged Casey Kasem meltdown—and found themselves buried in legal hell faster than you can say “cease and desist.” Then, we unravel the bizarre fate of The Midnight Suns, an upstart rock band who thought it'd be funny to stage an elaborate prank on Bono—only to end up facing unexpected consequences that not even The Edge could have predicted.Did these bands push the boundaries of parody, or did they simply learn the hard way that some Irish icons don't have a sense of humor? Pour yourself a Guinness (or something legally safer) and join us as we break down the wildest cases of Bono-provoked chaos.Support the showBecome a J-Lope and follow us on social media.

Send us a textIn this episode of Jackalope Tales, Lisa and Charles dive into one of the strangest and most persistent urban legends in music and Hollywood: Was Michael Jackson secretly a martial arts master? According to rumors that have circulated for years, the King of Pop wasn't just a musical genius—he was also an unstoppable fighter who could throw hands with the best of them.From whispers that he once took down Tupac Shakur in a brawl to the outrageous claim that he left Sylvester Stallone bruised and humbled, we explore how these bizarre stories took on a life of their own. Could MJ's smooth moves on stage have translated into deadly precision in a fight? Or is this just another example of pop culture myth-making at its finest?Lisa and Charles break down the origins of these tales, analyze the psychology behind celebrity folklore, and, of course, add their own spin on just how hilarious—or maybe plausible—these stories really are.

In this special Valentine's Day episode of Jackalope Tales, Charles and Lisa unravel the true meanings behind two iconic songs often mistaken for romantic anthems.First, they dig into Screaming Jay Hawkin's haunting classic, I Put a Spell on You. On the surface, it sounds like a passionate love song, but beneath the wailing vocals and eerie blues, it's really a dark tale of obsession and control.Then, they shift gears to Dolly Parton's heartfelt ballad, I Will Always Love You. Though many hear it as a tender love song, it was actually Dolly's graceful farewell to a professional partnership, a song of independence, not devotion.Join Lisa and Charles as they explore how these songs took on new lives in the public imagination and discuss why we sometimes hear love where it was never meant to be.Tune in for an episode filled with music, meaning, and maybe just a little heartbreak.Tune in every Wednesday for new episodes of Jackalope Tales podcast, urban legends in music!  Support the showBecome a J-Lope and follow us on social media.
