Spend a fun evening with KOLD Radio, located in a corner of Carl and Lena's Place for Beer in a small Minnesota town. Lars is the host of a radio show called "Crappie Talk," devoted entirely to ice fishing. Because it is a narrow subject, Lars has no listeners, so he loses his only advertiser, Ole's Bait Mart and Deer Petting Farm. Martha, Lars' unrequited love interest, hosts "Book Beat." She has all the listeners and advertisers. His jealousy towards Martha multiplies when a fish out-of-water Brooklyn Italian comes to Whitefish Bay, buys the radio station, promotes Martha, and fires Lars. Lars has his work cut out for him. He needs his job and his dignity, but more importantly, he needs Martha.
