> Tom and Ray haven't done the show live for two years; Car Talk has been airing archives of old shows. Berman says Ray would like to continue doing that, as a tribute to his brother.

I think Tom must be looking down from heaven and said: "Don't tell them, you .....!".

I do wish I can live the life of Tom and Ray and have greatest laughs everyday.

Technically, the show hasn't been live for a LONG time. Like most NPR programs it is recorded in advance and edited.

Maybe this is a dumb question, but how did the call-ins work then? There was always a message if it was a rerun (don't try really calling, etc.) but even their last shows had what appeared to be live call-ins and a call-in number and I remember them having to advise people to turn the radio off while they're on the phone.
