Ambitious radio executives Rix Martin (John Payne) and Chuck Hadley (Jack Oakie) struggle to compete against the big broadcasters, but Rix and his wife, Vicki (Alice Faye), have a bitter falling out when she turns to an old flame for a loan to support the failing station. Vicki finds success as a singer and reunites with Rix onstage when Chuck organizes the country's first coast-to-coast radio broadcast. Cesar Romero also stars.
