    This is the story of the collision between two extremes. On one side, a man using free speech as his weapon and speaking truth as he saw it. On the other, a group fueled by a toxic ideology, so consumed by their hatred that they sought to silence him forever. This is a story that reveals the dangers of free expression in a society where words have the power to inspire, but also to inflame.

    As we unravel this story, we are forced to confront the darker truths of human nature: the dangers of clashing ideologies so polarized that dialogue becomes impossible, and the high cost paid when the freedom to speak is met with violence. Alan Berg, a talk radio host was a lightning rod for controversy. His words did more than provoke debates. They enraged a group of people so deeply that their fury culminated in an unthinkable act: cold-blooded murder. This is Episode 48, The Tale of Two Extremes: The Murder of Alan Berg.
