Podcast appearances and mentions of max headroom incident

Before streaming and scrolling there was broadcast television—shared signals sent through the air for anyone with an antenna to catch. But when something's that open, it's also open to hijacking. In part one of our two-part series, we dig into one of the most bizarre and legendary cases of broadcast piracy: the Max Headroom Incident. On November 22, 1987, two Chicago stations were interrupted by a strange figure in a Max Headroom mask, delivering surreal, unsettling messages in a two-minute broadcast that has baffled and fascinated for nearly four decades. Who did it, why, and how did they pull it off? We explore the theories, the tech, and the legend that refuses to fade. Visit our website for a lot more information on this episode.

In this episode Dexter is joined by Shannon and sound guy Trent to discuss the pop culture phenomenon of the Max Headroom Incident from 1987 where the regular programming was interrupted by a pirate signal. This bizarre incident is still relevant today as we question our own reliance on our own “feeds”. Is the Medium the message? Is there anything that can shake our reliance on national narratives? Join along as we attempt to Hack the Feed.

In 1987, the signals of both WGN and WTTV in Chicago were overtaken by two brief unknown signals, both showing an unknown figure wearing a Max Headroom mask.  To this day, there are more answers than questions about these incidents:  Who did this?  How did they do it?  Why did they do it?  To this day, these brief interruptions remain one of the biggest mysteries to occur on U.S. broadcast television.

This week we conclude our mob Tale. With the bosses banged up, the Morello family must do their best to navigate a rapidly changing world - and several vicious wars. How will they deal with upstarts, Kings, The Camorra, prohibition - and the arrival of a Fifth Family? Admin Note: Apologies for the messy scheduling of late. I've been a little worn out from everyday job stuff, a number of recent current events have been adding to the drain… and I'm well overdue a week of ‘me time' away from the 9 to 5. I think I'm on the upswing, finally…  Also, I normally try to give myself a mid-season break after episode 10, where I'll drop a couple of episodes I've prepared earlier. Cause this one ran to three parts I'm taking that break now, at episode 12. I'll have a re-upload of 2021's The Max Headroom Incident to drop in a little over a week's time; a biographical piece on the Astronomer Tycho Brahe to drop two weeks after that, and a Patreon Pledge week (thanks to the Patrons for this one) where I'll drop four minisodes from 2023 into the feed over four days… I'll be back, all rested and good to go - two weeks after that.    Sources Include:  The First Family; Terror, Extortion and the Birth of the American Mafia by Mike Dash Five Families by Selwyn Raab The Black Hand by Stephan Talty The Gangs of New York by Herbert Asbury Support the show on | Patreon | for $2 US a month and get access to exclusive content, or Try our 7 Day Free Trial.  Please leave Tales a like and a review wherever you listen.

In 1987, a very strange broadcast intrusion occurred in the city of Chicago. For just a couple of minutes, the odd TV character Max Headroom appeared onscreen in the middle of an episode of Dr. Who. He spoke in garbled tones, brandished a marital aid, and was spanked on the rear with a fly swatter by a person dressed in Annie Oakley garb. If this sounds weird, it is. It's the Max Headroom Incident. Find out all about it in this classic episode.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week's Patreon request takes Tread Perilously 20 minutes into the future with an episode of Max Headroom called "Academy." When a group of zippers hijack the Network 23 signal one too many times, Bryce is charged with finding the miscreants so severe penalties can be brought against them. But already knowing the truth, he redirects the location trace to Blank Reg's RV. He assumes the televised judicial system will soon drop the charges as it is clear Reg lacks the ability to zip the network, but a more obscure law makes Reg look guiltier than sin. Will Max and Edison Carter convince Bryce to come clean or will Reg end up reduced to discrete atoms? Justin falls in love with the "twenty minutes into the future" tagline. Erik gets into the nitty-gritty of how Max came to be in reality and in the fiction of the series. Justin defends the cast of Super Mario Bros. He also picks fights with several public figures. Erik revels in the presence of W. Morgan Sheppard. The pair debate the "too much" elements of Twin Peaks's second season. Star Wars: The Last Jedi and Episode IX get re-litigated -- well, a little bit, anyway. The "Max Headroom Incident" gets discussed and the ghost of F. Lee Bailey haunts the Tread Perilously virtual studio.

The Max Headroom Incident has been increasing in notoriety year upon year. Ever since pirates hijacked the signals of two Chicago television stations in November 1987, the Federal Communications Commission, and latterly the Internet, have been attempting to solve the mystery of who exactly was behind the stunt. In this podcast, Dan and Carl posit some of their own unique ‘alternative theories' regarding the Max Headroom broadcast signal intrusion. Music in this episode was provided by Mr Nissness.

THE MAX HEADROOM INCIDENT. November 22nd, 1987 was a pretty normal evening for television viewers in Chicago. That night, like every night, Dan Roan was covering sports on WGN-TV, Channel 9. Then suddenly, the signal was disrupted and screens across the city cut to black. Engineers at WGN-TV thought their transmitters were failing. They weren't. A few seconds later, something crazy happened. WGN's broadcast signal had been hijacked in what is now known as "The Max Headroom Incident". WGN-TV was able to act quickly and get their signal back. But, Two hours later, it would happen again to another TV station and there was nothing they could do to stop it. What happens next remains one of the most bizarre unsolved crimes in television history. Let's find out why.

In November 1987, one of the weirdest moments of TV history happened right underneath the noses of the Chicago viewing public. That night a mysterious figure wearing a full-head "Max Headroom" mask invaded the broadcasts of local Chicago TV stations WGN and WTTW. Initially, on WGN, the masked marauder was only able to cut in for about 30 seconds before the transmission was re-seized by network engineers...but on WTTW, which was airing an innocuous Doctor Who rerun, the signal hijacking would last an entire minute and a half and include a garbled, manic tirade involving Chicago sportscasters, obscure local children's shows, New Coke, and, uh, spanking. To this day, no one knows who was behind the Max Headroom Incident...but that's where the mystery really begins. This week, Carrie takes us through the nitty-gritty of late 80s pop culture, broadcasting technology, and Reddit-based speculation, along with the strange stories of two other signal hijackings: the Captain Midnight broadcast signal intrusion and the Southern Television broadcast interruption - the latter of which may possibly have come from a place beyond our galaxy! ________________________________________ Connect with us on social media: Facebook: www.facebook.com/aintitscary Twitter: @aintitscary Instagram: @aintitscary Patreon: www.patreon.com/aintitscary ___________________________________________ Thank you to our sponsors: BetterHelp - Special offer for Ain't it Scary? listeners: Get 10% off your first month at www.betterhelp.com/aintitscary Audible - Get a FREE audiobook and 30-Day Free Trial at www.audibletrial.com/aintitscary BarkBox - Enjoy a FREE month of BarkBox on us when you sign up for a 6 or 12-month BarkBox subscription!

While viewers of WGN-TV were watching the 9 o'clock news, all seemed normal as Dan Roan, a local sportscaster, was going over the highlights of the Bears' victory over the Detroit Lions. Without warning, the TV signal flickered in and out… and then televisions went dark. In WGN's control room, technicians looked on, confused at what was happening. It was from their studio, located at Bradley Place in the north of the city, that the network broadcasted its microwave transmission to an antenna at the top of the 100-story John Hancock tower, seven miles away, and then out to tens of thousands of viewers. After a moment, the studio crew realized that their signal had been hijacked. Viewers then saw a suited figure fade in from the darkness. The stranger danced around while wearing a ghoulish rubbery mask with sunglasses and a frozen grin. Chris Knittel of Vice wrote, “Static hissed through the signal; behind him, a slab of corrugated metal spun hypnotically. This was not part of the regularly scheduled broadcast.” Listen to the episode for the rest of the story... Sources: Motherboard/Vice --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/207believe/support

In our not-so-milestone 26th episode, the War we've been following for the past couple of years draws to a close... with sort of a whimper!  The new aliens beat the old aliens... and our Morituri Warriors sorta play second fiddle to the whole dealio!  What could be left for our heroes, as we enter a time of... peace?!  It certainly can't be that easy... could it?

Remember the good old days when hacking didn't mean election tampering? It just meant pirating a broadcast signal or putting a less than appropriate picture on the front page of someone's website. Well, we long for those simpler times and on this week's episode we're covering one of the most famous in history (hijacking broadcast signals…not naughty pictures). The Max Headroom Signal Hijacking took place here in the lower 4th (Chicago) on two separate stations (WGN / WTTW) on the same November night in 1987. And while the content wasn't sinister - it certainly did cause an uproar. The strange broadcast interruption was a weird blend of anti-establishment rant and absurdist comedy (with some spanking thrown in for good measure). The strangest thing? The case has never been solved. So grab you New Coke, pop in a blank VHS and hit record as we cover the The Max Headroom Signal Hijacking this week. Plus Conspiracy Bot goes all Outer Limits on us, then C-Bot decides to go hack someone else's podcast with Kyle's help, and Moxie LaBouche of the Your Brain on Facts podcast goes slummin' and joins this dumpster fire to help sort out the insanity. All of that and more on the podcast that's never been hacked (unless you count the robot co-host) - Hysteria 51.Special thanks to this week’s research sources:Research Assistant - Raymond Walden IVBooksYour Brain on Facts: Things You Didn't Know, Things You Thought You Knew, and Things You Never Knew You Never Knew (Trivia, Quizzes, Fun Facts) | Moxie LaBoucheVideosHijacking Video - https://youtu.be/oqgeM6rWSkwWho Was Behind the Max Headroom Incident? - https://youtu.be/8rRo5CHFxAI}Max Headroom WTTW Pirating Incident - 11/22/87 - https://youtu.be/tWdgAMYjYSsThe Original Max Talking Headroom Show - https://imdb.to/2NTEyg2The Story of Max Headroom: Live on Network 23 - https://youtu.be/UzFWQIIe8U4WebsitesMax Headroom Signal Hijacking - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max_Headroom_signal_hijackingThe Max Headroom Show - https://bit.ly/2tw3F1vMax Headroom - https://bit.ly/37iLdrRVICE - https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/pgay3n/headroom-hackerCaptain Midnight broadcast signal intrusion - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captain_Midnight_broadcast_signal_intrusionCheck out This Week’s Guest: Moxie LaBoucheWebsite - http://yourbrainonfacts.com/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/yourbrainonfacts/Twitter - https://twitter.com/BrainOnFactspodInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/YourBrainOnFacts/Find More Great PodcastsForthHand Media - http://forthhand.com/shows/

The true story about the Max Headroom Incident, a news channel hack that still remains unsolved.

On November 22, 1987, a man wearing a rubber Max Headroom mask hijacked two Chicago TV stations, and one of pop culture's most enduring unsolved mysteries was born. Music by Kevin MacLeod.

  In this episode, Derek and a new co-host look into a topic that covers an archaic form of entertainment piracy that took place in the late '80s. Still shrouded in mystery to this day, the people involved have managed to evade punishment as their true identities remain unknown.

Imagine this, you are watching TV in the evening or late night. Maybe it is a movie starring Timothy Hutton and Sean Penn or a 1977 episode of Dr. Who, when suddenly something odd interrupts your viewing. Maybe it’s a message for a cable channel or a man in a mask getting spanked. Today, I have two true stories of broadcast signal intrusion, the Max Headroom and the HBO Captain Midnight Incident, on the 175th episode of Sunday Morning Coffee with Jeff.

HIJACKED!

On November 22nd, 1987, Chicago's channel 9 (WGN) was briefly interrupted. During the Sunday evening news, viewers were greeted by a bizarre masked man, who came upon their screen for a little under 20 seconds before disappearing. Then, just two hours later, this masked weirdo appeared again - this time, on channel 11 (WTTW - the local PBS provider). Even though he was barely intelligible, the man held control of the station's feed for close to 90 seconds. For more than three decades now, this strange hijacking of Chicago's airwaves has remained one of the most peculiar mysteries of modern times...

As people in Chicago gathered around their TVs for the nightly news, sportscaster Dan Roan was reporting the day’s highlights when the screen suddenly went black. Seconds later, a new image appeared on the screen. There was no sound and viewers were no longer looking at Dan Roan. They were now looking at a strange figure in a rubber mask, sunglasses, a brown jacket, tie, and white shirt. Behind the figure was a corrugated metal sheet moving up and down giving the amateur effect of a 3D background. The figure moved erratically from side to side, back and forth, as if laughing hysterically. The lack of audio only added to the weird spectacle. It lasted for half a minute before station engineers were able to regain control of the broadcast. Two hours later their screens once again lost reception and turned black. The creepy masked figure took over the airwaves again. This time however, there was audio and what happened over the 90 seconds that followed is still described as one of the most bizarre television hacking crimes in broadcasting history.

In 1987, a very strange broadcast intrusion occurred in the city of Chicago. For just a couple of minutes, the odd TV character Max Headroom appeared onscreen in the middle of an episode of Dr. Who. He spoke in garbled tones, brandished a marital aid, and was spanked on the rear with a fly swatter by a person dressed in Annie Oakley garb. If this sounds weird, it is. It's the Max Headroom Incident. Learn more about your ad-choices at https://news.iheart.com/podcast-advertisers
