Remember Shuffle should do a sports radio episode. The Jim Rome Show alone was such a perfect '00s artifact.

Nah NPR parents tend to think it’s good and appropriate for their car bound children to also listen to, god knows if was click/clack aware by age eight and I doubt I’m alone

Same and it permanently broke my brain so now I listen to podcasts in the car instead of music like a normal person.

I was a big NPR head when one of those dudes had a stroke and I was of the opinion that they could have easily gone out and found some other Folksy car guys to replace them, probably some minority. That they didn't was a minor crack ping that NPR was transitioning to nonstop state department propaganda

always has been

the only good show left is On The Media and they railroaded bob garfield outta there. now it has less punch

I still listen to morning edition when I'm in the shower getting ready because the on-the-hour news is nice but it does need a critical lens

The appeal of the Car Talk guys is that they also went to MIT, so even though they *sounded* "folksy," they were actually properly educated elites.

"Person who has some sort of folksy affect but actually went to Harvard, or is a Rhodes Scholar or something" is basically like catnip to liberals. It reminds them that they're the real true salt-of-the-earth Americans.

I think Click and Clack are fine. It can simultaneously be true that their show was good and that a lot of people really liked that they went to MIT.

The latest Well There's Your Problem is particularly bad, I couldn't get past 18:44.

I was a big fan of Franklin, I think donoteat is an interesting guy, but doing a hangout podcast with two of the more obnoxious people you could have cohost has really made it drag.

if you compare that news segment to the original Gulf Megaprojects episode 3 years ago, it's night and day.

The Car Talk guys had charm and chemistry with each other that you can't easily replace by just adding a new host. I'm sure they were playing up how folksy they are, but there was an "it factor".

They were literal brothers.

I can't imagine how awkward it would have been for the remaining brother to put out a casting ad for "some minority to be my new brother".
