Talk Radio is about a man who shoots off his mouth at everyone who calls him up on his show. And some of them love him, but others hate him, and threaten him, and some of the one's who love him make stuff up to talk to him, than he blows them off. Quickly becoming well known for his bold and quirky air-presence he becomes a late night sensation, whereby depraved junkies, delinquents, racists, sociopaths, sickos, perverts and morons call in to be ridiculed on air. The film shows the rise and fall of the man's career, carefully making an accurate portrayal on freedom of speech. Originally adapted from a stage-play, the film attaches itself to the theatre theme that it was originally built around, and does an incredible job conveying the film's fierce nature.
