Synopsis

In a little north woods Minnesota town, the host of a radio show devoted entirely to ice fishing loses his only advertiser while his wife, a popular host of a book show, has all the advertisers, putting the competitive couple at odds.

Their marital problems are compounded when two fish-out-of-water Brooklyn Italians come to the rural Minnesota town, buy the radio station, and turn everything upside down.
