Before podcast, and the multiple web shows you can see today on the internet, there was NPR, and the weekend show Car Talk.  Ray and Tom Magliozzi ran an auto shop in Massachusetts in the 1970’s.  And soon, the brothers got to start a national car show on NPR in 1987.  Car Talk became the best public radio show ever!  With over 35 years on the air, Click and Clack ended their show two years ago.  But you can still hear plenty of classic audio clips online from Car Talk!

And to honor Tom Magliozzi, who passed away from Alzheimer’s disease, I am embedding some moments from Car Talk.  Rest in peace.
