Loved the show - used to download them from iTunes and play them on long road trips. RIP.

Who would have thought you would love a show about auto mechanics?! Loved the show. RIP.

I'm a big fan as well. Very sad.
Tom's progressing illness would explain why they decided to end their show a couple of years ago.

End of an era. The sad thing is that millions of Americans missed out because of politics-based ignorance. Those guys transcended the usual US obsessions. they hated (or feared) lawyers, not lefties or righties. And they gave common sense advice on marriage and teen-handling that anyone could appreciate!
