You have not experienced Car Talk until you have heard it in the original Klingon!

    I still listen to it all the time via podcast. Grew up on that show, still laugh my ass off.

    No ... never heard of it before ... now I want to program my GPS assistant with a Klingon voice shouting directions at me.

    I miss Car Talk when I hear the guys randomly, most recently on eBay auto commercials.

    Unfortunately, you're only hearing one of them.

    Tom died in 2014 of Alzheimer's, 2 years after they retired from the show.

    I guess he really did have trouble remembering last week's puzzler.

    It's okay. It's an actual quote from Ray:

    In a statement announcing his brother's death, brother Ray alluded to a familiar joke about the weekly puzzlers they always featured in the show.

    "Turns out he wasn't kidding. He really couldn't remember last week's puzzler," Ray said. "We can be happy that he lived the life he wanted to live; goofing off a lot, talking to you guys every week and primarily laughing his ass off."

    Oh great not another racist white dude. I just picked a gif that said what I was trying to say, not one that was specific

    If you pick one at random, I'd say it's about 50/50 of finding a racist.

    We need a Star Trek x Top Gear x Car Talk mashup

    I don’t know the context here, but my college roommate used to listen to Car Talk and I hated it. He hated when I watched Star Trek though, so we both just sucked it up and dealt with it like adults.
