Damn. I grew up on this show. Thanks for all the good times.

'Car Talk' co-host Tom Magliozzi dead at age 77

Tom Magliozzi, co-host of the long-running weekly National Public Radio show "Car Talk," died on Monday of complications from Alzheimer's disease, the broadcast network said. He was 77.

I used to love to listen to those guys.

I'm not very familiar, however my sincere condolence goes out for him and to his family.

I've been listening to Car talk for 20+ years and I they're on my podcasts. Of the famous people in this world that die, this one hit close to home. You listen to, respect and enjoy someone for that long that their death is particularly hard.

I heard this on the news in my car and I just sat there contemplating what it means to live in a world where Car Talk doesn't exist and I just couldn't wrap my head around it. It was like someone telling me the sun just wouldn't be coming up tomorrow.

Talk about a person truly making the world a better place. The help they provided in their show and the work they do at MIT. Outstanding human being, both him and his brother. It's hard just to type this.



ps. Don't drive like my brother... :cry:
