If you've seen Oliver Stone's 1988 film Talk Radio you'll be tangentially aware of one of the subplots within Justin Kurzel's true crime thriller The Order. Stone's film was inspired by the story of Alan Berg, a Jewish radio talk show host who was targeted by a neo-Nazi group known as "The Order." As played by Marc Maron, Berg's voice is the first we hear in Kurzel's film, his words drawing the ire of a couple of white supremacists taking an ominous late night drive.

Rock On! This Week's Sound Bites... 07/16/2026

Loss, we've all suffered it. Some of us more than others,some less and still yet there are those of us who've not had loss of any significance to this point. Loss, like anything else, is directly related to perspective. What may seem like a huge loss to one, is insignificant to another. People pass away, bad days do the same, they fade into the night or disappear at the bottom of one's favorite drink until they are swept away by the morning's sunrise and things are new. Some loss stays a bit longer, adding scars to our bodies until they become topographical maps of memories; reminders of what not to do or what we didn't do or should've done.
