One Half of the Car Talk guys.

Age 77...I had no idea he was that old.

I know this show is probably not in a lot of board members wheelhouse but I like listening at work on Saturday.

Hell, I remember reading them in the newspaper when I was a kid. "Click and Clack."

RIP - seemed like a nice guy.

Doug and OB better be careful.

Bummer. I liked click and clack. They gave some bad advice but they seemed nice enough.

Loved the show and still listen to the re-runs but NPR is in State Funeral mode. The producer of the show just said that he was up there with Mark Twain and Groucho Marx in the history of American humorists.
