NPR's best calling it quits this fall.

But will the law firm of Dewey, Cheatum and Howe still take clients?

They'll be fine. I'm more worried about Russian chauffer Pickop Andropov and statistician Marge Inovera

I guess we can say there will be no more vacancies at the Horseshoe Road Inn.

RIP to a lot of my fun during weekend drives.

I'm really concerned about the head of the working single mothers support group Erasmus B Dragon
 
That sucks, but given how long they've been doing it, I guess it can't be considered a big surprise.
Just remember: don't drive like my brother.

And don't drive like MY brother.

This sucks...I cured many hangovers on the weekends listening to those guys while I worked at the NPR station in college.
 
I honestly missed out on this for YEARS before stumbling on it one weekend a couple years ago. Instantly became obsessed. Just so easily amusing, while also being informational. It was a great show. Still is, I guess, for a little bit longer.
 
I always thought it was cool they stayed loyal to public radio. Couldn't they have raked in the cash syndicating with Clear Channel's AM stations? It seems like they have enough appeal. They draw in listeners who would never otherwise listen to public radio.
 
When it comes to working on my own car, I don't go any further than changing the wiper blades. But I never miss that show.

Good job, guys!

I am the same way. I will put in gas and a quart of oil and that is the extent of my car knowledge. But I will listen to these guys for the entire hour on a Saturday.

Their show jumped the shark years ago.
Pray tell...what year? Pretty wide swath you are swinging with that comment.
They have been the same goofy twosome I have listened to since 1994. I don't notice a difference between a 1996 show and one from last week.
