Shirley Kenyon, een eerlijke vrouw, dumpt haar vriend en vertrekt naar Chicago. Per toeval mag ze een keertje een radioprogramma presenteren, waarin allerlei problemen worden behandeld, waarna ze meteen wordt aangenomen. Maar het station eist van haar dat ze zich zelf Doctor gaat noemen en haar populariteit blijft stijgen, waardoor de media diep in haar verleden gaat graven.
Nee, helaas is Straight Talk nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
