Even though it's in reruns it's still one of my favorite shows. Title: Re: Sad news from NPR... Post by: patsy6 on 04-Nov-14, 08:11:46 AM I've been a big fan of Car Talk for many years. Sad to think that the man who couldn't remember last week's Puzzler for so many years (it was one of their long running jokes) died of complications of Alzheimer's disease.
