SYNOPSIS
A young man from a small town heads to New York, determined to become a radio star. He achieves his goal but in the process alienates those around him.
Wisecracking Joe Miller (Ray Walker) makes it to the big time in radio.
When he gives his girlfriend Janet (Julie Bishop) her big break, she becomes an even bigger star. He feels like the joke's on him, when she starts going out with his friend George (Lorin Raker); and, he turns to booze, for comfort.
Whether Joe can crawl back up, out of the bottle; or, if Janet, or the sponsors and audience will take him back, remains to be seen.
