NPR's Car Talk to end in September

They apparently plan to "repackage" the show... Cut calls together from various shows and represent it as new material. Grosses me out, but that's the plan.

Yes their devious plan to air reruns of a successful show, repackaged so only the most entertaining parts are included. Going to be hard to represent it as new material when they announced their retirement. You ought to crank down the sensitivity on your "things I get grossed out by" meter.

I hadn't heard of the show before now. That's the sort of thing I would be interested in.
