Walkie Talkie1945-06-22"It's the newest thing in radio interviewing." Don Norman, broadcasting from The Brown Derby in Hollywood, interviews Jimmy Starr, a gossip columnist for The Los Angeles Herald Express for the last 20 years. Jimmy tells what it takes to get into the movies (such as how Clark Gable managed to do it). Not only is this program, not "the newest thing in broadcasting," is the same old nightclub interview show. There is no indication why the program is named, "Walkie Talkie."
