In the Golden Age of Hollywood, Alice Faye was Twentieth Century Fox's Golden Girl. She combined her enduring charm with a sophisticated sensual sound that fans adored.

At the dawn of the Roaring Twenties, Rix Martin (Payne) is desperate to land a successful business venture. He finds what he's looking for after meeting Chuck Hadley (Oakie) and comely speakeasy singer Vicki Adams (Faye), who are experimenting with a bold new form of technology - the radio! After joining forces, the trio embarks on a mission to bring this pioneering media to the masses... but there are many obstacles blocking their path to success, and it will take years of innovation and perseverance before they can finally achieve their goal, and transmit The Great American Broadcast!
