*cue relentless laughter*

That's not meant as shot at them, but that seemed to be half of every promo they had. Really lighthearted guys who loved what they did.

I had no idea either. We really enjoyed CarTalk, corny jokes and all.

I was sad when they stopped making new "Car Talk" shows, but it seemed that they'd been doing them forever. Now, I know why... I miss Tom.

RIP Tom, thanks for all the great stories.

I'm a huge Car Talk fan. Was so sad when they stopped making new shows but I still listen as much as possible. Even the 20 year old stuff is awesome. Like many, I had no idea Tom had Alzheimer's.
