Can definitely understand that
I remember about ten years ago I was out walking in a state park near my home, and I thought, what the heck, I'll listen to NPR and see if their programming was as lib/leftist as I had remembered. I listened to three different, one hour programs in a row. All three were decidedly leftist slanted. That was enough for me.
I have listened at different times, and they did have some interesting shows that weren't political. But they were few and far between.
Really sorry to hear this. About the only time I listened to NPR. He an his brother were a real joy.
Gee, why should I? hmmmm. I don’t know... because I listened to the show occasionally for laughs. And then when some jerk makes a stupid, snotty comment, I stopped listening. But you’re right...I don’t care...which is why I haven’t listened to the show since then.
The only thing worth listening to on NPR.
The information density on their show was extremely low, with more yukking it up than useful information. Mostly, I found it to be a waste of time.
Well they did always close their show with "Well, you've squandered another perfectly good hour..."
“The only thing worth listening to on NPR.”
I second that.
Rip. Don’t drive like my brother!
Best car show on radio by far. I heard it a few weeks ago and it didnt sound like either had alzheimers. Was the show in reruns?
“Was the show in reruns?”
Since October 2012. They knew Tom couldn’t go on.
I know it was NPR, and I am a conservative libertarian, but I really enjoyed those guys. Sometimes funny is just funny.
Is Dewey, Cheathem, and Howe executing his will?
Always enjoyed the show. RIP Mr Magliozzi.
Dodge Dart was very frequently part of their radio show. I have my own Dodge Dart memories and are all good

Funny guy - will be missed. The only thing good about NPR.
