Tom Magliozzi has passed.

Spent many years laughing to Click and Clack, the Tappet Brothers. Rest in Peace old friend.

RIP.

Aww.... not cool! RIP.

Just heard. Complications of Alzheimers apparently. Sucks.

My wife just called and told me, so sad. I have very fond memories of sitting in the kitchen with my Dad drinking coffee and laughing to Car Talk. You will be missed Tom.

Some of the best entertainment around. Sad to hear it, he always seemed like a great guy on the air.

Man, sorry to hear this, he was a really funny guy. I didn't listen to it a whole lot but what I did hear I really liked. Of course, there were a couple times I was yelling at the radio 'DAMMIT! TELL THEM TO CHECK (insert my epiphany here)!'

Sad to hear, I used to listen to it many years ago.

Are there still any shows like that on the radio?

I just heard this. So sad. At least there will always be reruns.

That sucks! Car Talk was a favorite of mine growing up until now.

I'm bummed. Really bummed.

RIP

Those guys always seemed to enjoy life. I imagine that it would be fun to have a few drinks with them.

Imagine building a LeMons or 20xx Challenge car with them while having those drinks.

Sad. Such a cruel disease.

Bummer.

Years ago I used to travel a LOT and would occaissionally pick up their show on a cheap ass AM radio in my company truck. I always enjoyed them.

God damn these stupid onions.

Big plus one. Rode to chatt a couple weeks ago, randomly picked them up on the way, and laughed my ass off the whole time.
