Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | Car Talk (pronounced Caah Towok) is a weekly radio broadcast about automotive repair on National Public Radio hosted by the wisecracking Tom and Ray Magliozzi, also known as Click and Clack, the Tappet Brothers. Listeners call in (actually, listeners call in and reach a 24-hour answering service where they are pre-screened, but the brothers don't hear the problems beforehand; the reason for it is that NPR stations don't all broadcast the show at the same time) and describe the problems with their vehicles. The brothers crack wise, make fun of themselves, each other, and the listener--especially when the caller tries to reproduce the weird sound the car has been making--and oftentimes come up with plausible answers and solutions for the caller to investigate. |
