Claudia Kishi feels hurt and angry after a major argument with her best friend Stacey. Looking for a distraction, she decides to enter a radio station contest for kids who want to host their own show. The prize is a month-long gig at WSTO radio, and Claudia can hardly believe it when she wins. Her excitement quickly turns to dismay when she finds out who her co-host will be. The station has paired her with another contest winner who happens to be a rival from her art classes. Now Claudia faces a dilemma. She wants the radio experience, but working closely with someone she considers competition in art seems impossible. As she prepares for her first broadcast, Claudia must figure out how to handle both her ongoing friendship troubles with Stacey and this new challenge with her artistic rival.
