'Car Talk' Hosts Click and Clack Retiring from Popular Radio Show
"Car Talk" hosts "Click and Clack" announced Friday that they will retire from the hit radio show broadcast weekly on the National Public Radio.
Tom and Ray Magliozzi announced that they will not be recording any more new shows as of October.
"We’ve decided that it’s time to stop and smell the cappuccino," Ray wrote in a post on the show's website.
"That's right, we're retiring," Tom added.
"Thank you for giving us far more of your time than we ever deserved. We love you. And know that starting this fall, for the first time, we’ll be able to sit at home, laughing at Car Talk along with you guys on Saturday mornings," Ray concluded.
NPR will continue with the show once a week, broadcasting archived programs from the past 25 years, they said.
The brothers will continue writing their weekly "Dear Tom and Ray" column.
"Car Talk" was first broadcast on WBUR in Boston in 1977 and was picked up by NPR ten years later.
The popular show featured callers to ask questions mostly to determine the malfunction on vehicles.
