Excellent show... funny... insightful... informative... and the puzzler is great. Family friendly show. Glad to see if finally as a podcast. So I guess we can expect to hear... "And don't podcast like my brother!"
I love Car Talk!

These guys are great listening whether you're working out, listening at home or driving. My dad got me hooked many years ago. He used to record the shows on tape. I'd always take a boxful of casettes with me when I drove to/from college 1100 miles from home. They're entertaining and educational. I feel quite confident in my ability to diagnose a bad master cylinder or a worn fan belt... They have some material that is kind of cheesy but the hour is well worth it. It's truly a part of my life. I hope they never retire! Listen in...you won't be disappointed!
Fantastic!

I love Car Talk and listened to the boys every Sunday when our local station played them. This is the only podcast I pay extra for. That said, for those of us that pay for CarTalk+, the ads should be omitted. I still love the show and will continue to pay AND skip past the ads.

Why is a show that’s supposed to be free and open to the public, a station subsidized by donors and taxpayers, making you pay for a subscription?? Absolutely deplorable, despicable and disgraceful. I will never give money to public broadcasting again. Quit calling it public radio and start calling it radio for people who can afford it.
