The Best of Car Talk (USA), Dave From Bemidji, October 22, 2016, Hörbuch, Digital, 54min
This week on The Best of Car Talk, gather round for the greatest road trip story ever told. Dave and his girlfriend drove from Alaska to Minnesota in an overheating Chevy Cavalier with an old campfire grill jammed into the catalytic converter, a crescent wrench with no sockets, and one big zit on Dave's forehead. In more mundane matters, Patrice's VW bus won't start, John Mark's backseat passengers are getting their feet soaked when he makes a turn, and Alana's gas tank is spitting fuel back out after she fills it. Also, how should Rich wake up a Buick that's been napping for four years, and is the threat of fire enough to convince Jim that replacing his tailpipe might count as a "necessary repair"? All this and more, this week on The Best of Car Talk. [Broadcast Date: October 22, 2016] Language: English. Narrator: Tom Magliozzi, Ray Magliozzi.

It's missing the most essential accessory for Orlando-- a working air conditioner.

Car Talk, A Few Cowardly Men, June 26, 2010, Hörbuch, Digital, 56min
of men behaving badly. First up is the fiance of Kate from Michigan. When her horn wouldn't stop blaring, he handled the situation by slinking down in the passenger seat so nobody would see him! Meanwhile, here in Massachusetts, Marc was so grossed out by the hair-like strands coming out his tailpipe that he made his wife do the hands-on investigation. Down in Tennessesse, Jim's son "borrowed" Dad's LeBaron for a late-night date, and cooked the transmission. But, those guys are kings compared to Dave, the husband of Jennifer in Colorado. Not only did he scratch her car and not 'fess up when he was presented with the evidence, he told Jennifer it was her fault! All this, plus further evidence that our Producer Dougie Berman is a bad influence, a wordy finale to the Puzzler season and lots more, this week on Car Talk.

This week on The Best of Car Talk, Jackie's pet python's lunch disappeared into the vents of Jackie's Explorer. Not a big deal, right? Well, lunch was a live rat which has since deceased, but is still in the car stinking it up to high heaven. Elsewhere, Delena has decided that six years is long enough to live with an oil leak, so she's ready to have it addressed; Helen needs to stop and sniff the tailpipe to try to figure out what's leaking from her Odyssey; Rich may need a team of FAA investigators to help decode the noise coming from the black box in his pickup; and, a tale of a Fiat's Christmas miracle.

Car Talk, Eggs Prestone, May 17, 2014, Hörbuch, Digital, 53min
This week on Car Talk, Sasha learned a new recipe for dealing with a radiator leak--add black pepper and eggs. Did this combo save his engine, or at least provide brunch while he waited for a tow truck? Elsewhere, does Chip need to resort to "tailpipe diplomacy," in the form of a cherry bomb, to get his neighbors to stop warming up their cars for 20 minutes every morning? Also, Bill and his wife are looking for a $700 car that makes them look eccentric rather than cheap; Jennifer's good deal on a used Volvo may not have been so good; and can Tom in California adjust to his new life as a car salesman without succumbing to the white belt and shoes? All this, plus one tourist's eye-opening visit to Car Talk Plaza, and lots more. [Broadcast Date: May 17, 2014] Language: English. Narrator: Tom Magliozzi, Ray Magliozzi.

Car Talk, Tire Pressure Goblins, May 5, 2012, Hörbuch, Digital, 53min
This week on Car Talk, strange things are happening in the night: Bruce's tires are going from full to flat while he sleeps; Cynthia is adding Maalox to her engine instead of motor oil; and Jinx's romantic moonlight drive is interrupted by smoke billowing from the dashboard after he turned off his headlights. Smoke is also an issue for Henry in California. Actually, it may be more of an issue for his neighbor, who happened to be standing behind Henry's car when it made its morning billow from his tailpipe. Elsewhere, Lisa's Passat is sounding like a bad 1950's science fiction movie; and Michal can't understand why her partner becomes turn-signal averse as soon as he gets on the freeway. All this, plus a few subtle signs it may be time for a new car, and lots more, this week on Car Talk. [Broadcast Date: May 5, 2012] Language: English.

The Best of Car Talk (USA), August 04, 2018, Hörbuch, Digital, 54min
This week on The Best of Car Talk, Tom and Ray venture far afield as they consider one listener's idea that could revolutionize elevator operations (within the confines of still going up and down) - if anyone can make heads or tails of it. Later, on Stump the Chumps, we find out if our hosts helped Jeff's bread maker resume making loaves instead of hockey pucks. To mollify NPR, we'll also wrestle with a few car questions. Drea wants to know if steam cleaning the engine is really a good way to pamper her Nissan; Elizabeth's BMW's door locks have gone wacko, and she can only get in the car if she grabs the handle at exactly the right moment; Evan's wondering what became of the golf ball her three-year-old son stuck up the tailpipe; and do Paul's lug nuts have to be tightened following a religious code? All this and more, this week on The Best of Car Talk. [Broadcast Date: August 4, 2018] Language: English. Narrator: Tom Magliozzi, Ray Magliozzi.

Unstoppable: Harnessing Science to Change the World , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 684min
Just as World War II called an earlier generation to greatness, so the climate crisis is calling today's rising youth to action: to create a better future. In Unstoppable, Bill Nye crystallizes and expands the message for which he is best known and beloved. That message is that with a combination of optimism and scientific curiosity, all obstacles become opportunities, and the possibilities of our world become limitless. With a scientist's thirst for knowledge and an engineer's vision of what can be, Bill Nye sees today's environmental issues not as insurmountable, depressing problems but as chances for our society to rise to the challenge and create a cleaner, healthier, smarter world. We need not accept that transportation consumes half our energy and that two-thirds of the energy you put into your car is immediately thrown away out the tailpipe. We need not accept that dangerous emissions are the price we must pay for a vibrant economy and a comfortable life. Above all, we need not accept that we will leave our children a planet that is dirty, overheated, and depleted of resources. As Bill shares his vision, he debunks some of the most persistent myths and misunderstandings about global warming. When you are done listening, you'll be enlightened and empowered. Chances are you'll be smiling, too, ready to join Bill and change the world. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Bill Nye.
