It was here in Washington DC where Petey could fully express himself and “tell it like it is”. With the support of his temperamental girlfriend, Vernell Watson (Taraji P. Henson), Petey lands a job on as on air radio talk show host with his new partner, Dewey Hughes (Chiwetel Ejiofor). Over night the two become an iconic radio personality.
