Hello my name is Thomas Douglas and i was a principal character on the tv show restoration garage on discovery velocity for 4 seasons. I thought we might be able to work together by having me as a guest.  
Thank you.

A little late for that, the last “live” show was Nov. 8, 2014. and that was a tribute to the passing of Tom Magliozzi who passed away Nov. 3, 2014.

Yeah but we don’t get paid very much. The plus side is we don’t get any of those nasty 1099 forms to deal with.

I don’t so much mind the 1099s because they tell income!

Suggest you contact _Car Talk_ directly, via a snail mail letter to the address below. And it might good a good idea to contact NPR too. I expect NPR would like to host another Saturday morning call-in show about car diagnosis & repair & humor, if they could find the right hosts. It’s that last part that’s the hard part.

Car Talk Plaza, Box 3500 Harvard Square, Cambridge, MA 02238.
