Car Talk

9:00 a.m. - 10:00 a.m., Saturday; 11:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m., Sunday

Imagine the Marx Brothers answering questions about automobiles. Picture Monty Python trying to imitate car noises. Think of A.J. Foyt telling someone how to open the car hood. Mix it all up, throw in a little Dr. Ruth and a little Smothers Brothers, and you’ve got Car Talk. The program is hosted by Tom and Ray Magliozzi, better known to their listeners as “Click and Clack, the Tappet Brothers.” During the show, Tom and Ray freely dispense expert car advice to callers in the broad accents of their native East Cambridge neighborhood. But the irreverent program is about much more than just automotive repair. Whatever the call, Tom and Ray delight listeners with humor, wit and sagacity.
