About this episode

Charles and Lisa explore the phenomenon of bands suing each other over musical disputes.

This week, Charles and Lisa dive headfirst into the glorious dumpster fire of bands suing other bands. From stolen riffs and borrowed lyrics to trademark tantrums and courtroom guitar solos, they uncover the rock stars who decided lawyers hit harder than drummers. Because nothing says “rock ‘n’ roll forever” quite like a cease-and-desist delivered by certified mail. Grab your air guitar, hide your songwriting notebook, and remember… every great lawsuit starts with someone saying, “Hey… that was MY chord progression.” [Ep 147] Become a J-Lope and follow us on social media.
