Trivia
Marion (Mary Doran) drives a 1930 American Austin, the first of this short lived, notoriously under-powered and under-braked series, which sold for $275-$550 from 1930-1934.

Errores
When Brennan is talking to his boss Smedley; he tells Smedley, "Don't get excited". But on the next cut, the same scene is repeated with Brennan using a variation of the dialogue, this time telling Smedley, "there's no use in getting excited."

Citas
Marion Ferguson: You're quite fresh, aren't you?
William J. Brennan: No, just well preserved.

A William Haines Comedy Crime Caper Film

A fast-talking radio announcer discovers that a fake on-air clairvoyant is using code to communicate with his criminal gang by REMOTE CONTROL.

It was 1930. Talking pictures were here to stay and William Haines was the first box office champion of the new era, albeit briefly. He starred in three films for MGM that year. This is one of them.

Haines is his typical boyish, bouncy self - silly, but always watchable. Mary Doran is his romantic interest, while singer Charles King is her brother, the station owner. John Miljan is suavely evil as the phony psychic and the ubiquitous Polly Moran scores as a beauty expert. Unbilled appearances by Benny Rubin (hilarious as "Dangerous Dan the Jew") and champion stutterer Roscoe Ates give Haines the rare opportunity to act as straight man to someone else's jokes for a few moments.
