Usually those type of people want others to hear their conversations because of their own personality problems. Just ignore it and don't gasp or laugh when you overhear certain comments and it'll go away.
But, overhear as much as you can while continuing your work. Most of it is gossip, but I had the benefit of working next to a high level manager in an open-area office. I'd overhear something, then like a week later suggest that to my own manager and people thought I was a genius. |

I would talk with the person privately, and tell them that their loud talking is disruptive and could hurt their job performance and reputation.
Some people like to talk, and might not realize that they are annoying other people.
Please _do not_ gossip to other people or hurt the loud talkers rep--that would be spreading gossip yourself and completely wrong.
Try to improve the "loud talkers" performance, and make them a better employee.
