RIP, love the show. I have my popcast download their shows everyweek.
How can it be Alzheimer ?!?!?
The latest show #1444 on my cellphone's popcast app is Nov 1 - just two days ago.
- emddudley 12y agoThey haven't recorded a new episode in 2 years.
- dba7dba 12y agoI wonder the reason they stopped taping it 2 years ago was due to the onset of Alzheimer.
- burkaman 12y ago> Tom and Ray haven't done the show live for two years; Car Talk has been airing archives of old shows. Berman says Ray would like to continue doing that, as a tribute to his brother.
- tkinom 12y agoDidn't know that at all. So sad.
- TylerE 12y agoTechnically, the show hasn't been live for a LONG time. Like most NPR programs it is recorded in advance and edited.
- Amezarak 12y agoMaybe this is a dumb question, but how did the call-ins work then? There was always a message if it was a rerun (don't try really calling, etc.) but even their last shows had what appeared to be live call-ins and a call-in number and I remember them having to advise people to turn the radio off while they're on the phone.

- srcmap 12y agoI think Tom must be looking down from heaven and said: "Don't tell them, you .....!". I do wish I can live the life of Tom and Ray and have greatest laughs everyday.
