Step right up, folks… to the absolute worst infomercial in human history.
This week on Jackalope Tales, Charles and Lisa crack open one of the music industry’s most vile, moldy corners—the world of racist record labels. That’s right… before SoundCloud rappers were embarrassing themselves online, there were entire labels proudly pressing hatred onto vinyl like it was a greatest hits album nobody asked for.
Charles dives headfirst into the toxic wasteland of Resistance Records—a label that somehow turned bigotry into a business model… until it collapsed under the weight of lawsuits, criminal ties, and the general fact that being openly awful eventually catches up with you. Turns out, hate isn’t just bad for the soul—it’s also terrible for long-term brand growth.
Meanwhile, Lisa unearths the grimy legacy of Rebel Records, where the soundtrack was less “rebellion” and more “regression.” It’s the kind of catalog that makes you want to wash your ears out with bleach and your brain out with a Fleetwood Mac binge.
This episode is dark, uncomfortable, and soaked in the kind of gallows humor that only comes from staring directly at history’s dumbest villains and saying, “Wow… you really thought this was a good idea?”
We’re not celebrating these clowns—we’re dragging them. Hard.
Because if there’s one thing worse than bad music; it’s bad music made by worse people. [Ep 133]
