Hi, King Slime listeners! We're excited to share with you a sneak peek at iHeartPodcasts' latest release, Live Wire: The Loud Life and Shocking Murder of Alan Berg.

Live Wire: The Loud Life and Shocking Murder of Alan Berg: Alan Berg was starting over as a divorcee, disbarred lawyer, and recovering alcoholic when he found his true calling on the radio. His brash and bold on-air persona made him one of the true renegades in a “shock jock” revolution that took over broadcast media in the 1980s. Despite the numerous enemies the brash Berg made through his radio show, the world was stunned when he was assassinated outside his Denver home. The case would languish for months before uncovering the shocking truth about the white-supremacist militia that marked Alan Berg for death.
