Synopsis
Mario del Valle, a popular radio singer who is visting Los Angeles, has been the victim of embezzlement by his secretary and his physician. When Mario takes out an insurance policy, his secretary withholds the check to cover her embezzling. Mario, meanwhile, has fallen in love with a nurse named Nina, and when he catches a bad cold one evening, he insists on being taken to the hospital where she works. While Mario is in the hospital, his secretary announces to the press that they are engaged, hoping that Mario's fear of bad publicity will prevent him from prosecuting her. When Mario tries to collect on his insurance, he discovers what has happened, and also finds that his secretary's crimes have left him penniless. After he confronts her, she secretly switches his gargling medicine with disinfectant, and when Nina comes to give him the medicine, his vocal chords are damaged and he can no longer sing. Nina is then dismissed from her job for carelessness. Some time later, the secretary argues with the doctor, and in revenge, she tells Mario the whole story. Mario then confronts the doctor, and in his anger, he discovers that his voice has returned to what it was. Mario then looks for Nina, they are reconciled, and he returns to sing on the radio.

Notes
Some sources refer to the film under the English-language title, Radio Troubadour. A modern source includes Pilar Arcos, Manuel París and César Miró as possible cast members, and notes that a connection between this film and a July 1934 press report, which said that Tito Guízar was returning to New York after having spent several weeks in Hollywood filming El trovador de la radio, a Spanish-language picture, has not been determined.
