Money Talks

A fast-talking L.A. radio personality, Franklin Hatchett, is framed for murder by a ruthless TV mogul and disgraced former detective. To clear his name, Franklin must team up with the very man trying to bring him down, leading to a series of chaotic and dangerous misadventures across the city. He finds himself caught in a web of deceit, double-crosses, and escalating absurdity.
