i think NPR should go back to back with these shows on Saturday morning. “eric the carguy” and the guy from “bleepin jeep” would be great hosts, i think. you can find them both on you tube. ---

It’d be interesting to hear how Eric and Bleepin’ would feel about this. ---

I doubt NPR would try to create a talk show, they’d be much more likely to take an existing one and adopt it, I’d think. If they were interested… ---

It’s hard to manufacture the relationship between Tom and Ray. I know lots of people, including my wife, who new little about cars in general who loved the show. It was a comedy show first, built around automobiles as a subject starter for most people. That you actually learned anything was good for those like us who were interested, but I feel we were the minority of the listeners. I would like to hear Jay do one show with Ray, like that as a special as a tribute to his brother…but that’s it.
