Jackalope Tales on Radio Misfits

In this episode of Jackalope Tales, Lisa and Charles sharpen their shears and take aim at pop industry puppet master Scooter Braun — or as they like to call him, the world’s most polite snake in a thousand-dollar suit. In this episode of Jackalope Tales, Charles and Lisa trade earthly logic for alien abduction reports as they dive into the weird world of musicians who claim they’ve had close encounters of the musical kind. Charles unpacks Sammy Hagar’s unhinged belief that extraterrestrials once hacked his brain like a hotwired van full of tequila. Meanwhile, Lisa peels back the tinfoil layers of Mick Jagger’s alleged UFO sighting, which he conveniently forgot to mention in his autobiography—right between the pages about tantric sex and tax shelters. Was Hagar abducted or just deeply dehydrated in Cabo? Did Mick actually see a UFO, or was it just Keith Richards glowing under the influence of battery acid and moonlight? Join us as we ask the big questions: Why are aliens so obsessed with rock stars? Is Area 51 just a backstage lounge for washed-up musicians? And most importantly… what happens when the mothership demands an encore? Spoiler: it’s mostly probing. [EP 88] Official Jackalope Tales merch!

Step right up, cult members and curious creeps—this week on Jackalope Tales, Charles and Lisa serve up a double dose of musical messiahs who didn’t just drink the Kool-Aid… they stirred it themselves. Lisa dives deep into the desert-drenched delusion of 30 Seconds to Mars, where Jared Leto traded in eyeliner for enlightenment and accidentally became a shirtless space Jesus to an army of spiritually dehydrated fans. Camp Mars? More like Camp “Run While You Still Can.” Meanwhile, Charles explores the mind-bending, gender-defying gospel of Genesis P-Orridge, the late high priest of industrial noise and body-melding chaos. From the psychic temple of Throbbing Gristle to the flesh-as-text manifesto of Thee Temple ov Psychick Youth, Genesis didn’t start a cult—they made one a lifestyle brand. So dim the lights, light some incense (or whatever’s in that suspicious goblet), and join us for an episode that asks: when does fandom become faith… and when does faith start charging $299 for a VIP wristband?

In this episode of Jackalope Tales, Charles and Lisa aim their skepticism skyward and take on the conspiracy theories swirling around Blue Origin’s latest New Shepard rocket flight. Was it really a triumphant leap into the final frontier—or just an expensive bottle rocket launched from Jeff Bezos’s backyard? From claims that the “passengers” were actually AI holograms to whispers that the onboard champagne celebration took place in a Houston warehouse with a fog machine and some clever camera angles, the internet is ablaze with suspicion. Join us as we dissect grainy launch footage, question why the capsule’s windows looked suspiciously like repurposed McDonald’s PlayPlace portholes, and debate the most damning question of all: if it really went to space, why did it land suspiciously close to a Buc-ee’s? Buckle up, Jackalopes—this journey might not leave the ground, but it’s definitely out of this world. [EP 86]   Become a J-Lope and follow us on social media.

This Mother’s Day, Charles and Lisa celebrate the matriarchs of mayhem—the moms who made music history by being absolutely terrible at motherhood. In Mom Said Knock You Out, Charles dives into the chaotic parenting of Pattie Mallette, Justin Bieber’s mom, who once thought it was a great idea to leave her teenage son in the care of P. Diddy. Spoiler alert: it didn’t end well. Meanwhile, Lisa unpacks the Pepsi-denying mother who inadvertently inspired the greatest teen meltdown anthem of all time: Institutionalized by Suicidal Tendencies. That’s right—one mom’s refusal to let her son crack open a cold soda gave birth to a hardcore punk classic. Celebrate the moms who didn’t quite get it right, only on Jackalope Tales.

This 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. [EP 84] Become a J-Lope and follow us on social media.

This 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. [EP 83] Become a J-Lope and follow us on social media.

This 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. [EP 82] Become a J-Lope and follow us on social media.

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? Tune in for laughs, receipts, and maybe a little unsolicited financial advice.

In 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. [EP 80] Become a J-Lope and follow us on social media.

This 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. Coincidence? Maybe. But we’re keeping the tape rolling.

Top 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.

In 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. Tune in for an episode that’s as mysterious as the moonwalk itself. [EP 77] Become a J-Lope and follow us on social media.

In this wild and unfiltered episode of Jackalope Tales, original Toadies members Charles & Lisa dive into one of the most bizarre and least discussed chapters in music history – musicians who have, quite literally, left their mark. From the outrageous exploits of funk legend Rick James to the more recent, unexpected antics of country singer Ingrid Andress, the duo unpacks the unbelievable (and very real) moments when these artists decide a desk was the right place for…well, you know. Was it rebellion? A rock n roll power move? Or just a very bad day? Charles and Lisa break down the infamous stories, speculate on what was going through these artists’ minds, and try to answer the age-old question: why a desk? All that, plus plenty of dark humor, music history, and the occasional nervous laughter. Strap in – this one might get messy. [EP 76] New podcast episodes every Wednesday!

In this wild, fur-covered episode of Jackalope Tales, Charles & Lisa unravel two bizarre encounters between legendary musicians and some very unexpected (and very real) bears. Jackalope Tales dives into the near-tragic tale of Michael Buble, who, mistakes an enormous polar bear for a friend and John Lydon (Johnny Rotten) found himself held hostage in his own home – by a very hungry bear and also the authorities!

In this episode of Jackalope Tales, we dive into the unexpected storm surrounding country icon Carrie Underwood and rap legend Snoop Dogg following their involvement in the latest presidential inauguration. What seemed like a routine performance or endorsement has now turned into a full-blown controversy, with fans and critics alike calling for boycotts, questioning their loyalties, and debating the role of musicians in political events. How did their participation ignite such a backlash? Were they prepared for the public reaction, or did they underestimate the power of political divisions in today’s climate?

Love is in the air, or is it? 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!
