You wouldn't say "What are you talking?"
You would either say "What are you saying?" or "what are you talking about?"

Yes, the first one could be "what are you saying?" in normal situations. The second one is okay too.

Hi Marco,
Your question is asking the topic which someone is talking about. Therefore, it will be more specific to use "about" to indicate the focus of something. (Eg He talked about his past as a member of the gang.)
Hope this helps.
Cheers, Lance
