    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    Jackalope Tales kicks off its Stalker Series, because apparently Beatlemania wasn’t creepy enough the first time around. Lisa dives into the strange tale of Yoko Ono’s relentless pursuit of Paul McCartney—showing up, making requests, and eventually finding herself with a completely different Beatle. When one door closes, apparently you just keep knocking until John Lennon answers. Then Charles takes things somewhere much darker with the terrifying night George Harrison was attacked inside his ow

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    Opening for a major artist is supposed to be your big break. Unless, of course, the headliner decides your big break should involve packing your crap and getting off the tour bus. This week on Jackalope Tales, Charles and Lisa dig into the wonderfully dysfunctional world of opening acts who got FIRED. Charles tells the story of Eric Church opening for Rascal Flatts — and apparently committing the unforgivable crime of putting on a show that was a little too Eric Church. Rules were broken. Temper

This week on Jackalope Tales, Charles and Lisa dive ass-first into the disturbing new frontier of live music: people pooping at shows. 💩 Charles investigates the infamous Devilskin concert incident, where one fan allegedly decided the pit needed a little more movement than usual. Meanwhile, Lisa explores the dedication of Olivia Rodrigo fans who reportedly use Depends so they don’t have to surrender their hard-earn

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    This week, Charles and Lisa dig into the unholy little mess that erupted when Charley Crockett’s camp dropped satanic doo-wop duo Twin Temple from a run of shows—and somehow turned an opening-act change into a musical culture-war casserole. Was it the Satanism? The backlash? A booking screw-up? Or did somebody finally read Twin Temple’s bio after signing the contract? Jackalope Tales sorts through the controversy, the finger-pointing, and the beautiful absurdity of booking a band whose entire ae
