“Apple got too big for its britches or maybe it’s NPR. They want to charge you now so we can’t even listen!? It was fine when you released two episodes a week for free. I’m not going to support this any longer. I hope you lose all your patronage trying to make more money.”

“I’m happy to cough up a little cash to keep listening to this gem. Not an issue of greed…it’s just like paying to watch an old movie you love.
This show bring me back to a better time and I just love these two to bits.”

“I have loved Car Talk since my long lost youth. I do not, however, love the edited version now offered. It ruins the rhythm of the show and manages somehow to make it less funny. Please bring back the full unexpurgated shows. I might be willing to pay for a subscription to that.”

“Why are these episodes a lot shorter than the ones that were originally recorded? Seems like additional work for the staff to cut out portions of the program. Still funny shows, just less.”

“This podcast is absolutely the best automotive show out there! A good listen for anyone, even if you don’t care about cars because Tom and Ray are very humorous.
The bottom line:
if you want entertainment, and like laughing, this is for you. If you like automotive related stuff, even better.”

“Love the show enough to pay a subscription, but can’t justify when the episodes have been cut from the full hour to a “modified” format (unsure if this was for copyright or for NPR “political correctness”). Hey NPR: bring back the full episodes and we’ll pay to listen.”

“My dad and I love listening to car talk while on road trips and the four show rotation just isn’t enough. There are so many tv shows on rerun on cable that costs far more than the $30 annual car talk subscription. Totally worth it as my subscription helps support NPR and the shows I love. In...”Read full review »

“Great show tha I've listen to since the 80's. This was funded by PBS, so disappointing you can no longer listen without paying. I've supported PBS for many years, had hope this podcast would have remained free for all to enjoy. Guess profit is more important than loyal 40 year plus...”Read full review »

“Let’s see, NPR is funded by our taxes, and then they also have fundraisers. So their supporters are already paying and now they want to charge for old episodes of a show that is no longer in production? No thank you.”

“Since the paid subscription model was put in place for older episodes, I can no longer listen to older episodes that I had downloaded and saved when they were free. Even though the episode is on my device, I’m prompted to pay to listen to it.”

“I would give zero stars if I could!
This show has been around for decades. It’s been one of my favorites. Until recently, the new owners decided to convert it to a subscription podcast. Ok. Fine. Except for the fact that all of my downloaded episodes now require that I pay a subscription to...”Read full review »

“Can’t believe the gall of NPR to want to charge for a long since out of production show that still runs fresh adds. It’s amazing how many great ongoing shows are able to make tons of money on an add supported basis and yet NPR somehow has to demand ever more money. Are they really that greedy or...”Read full review »

“I wish that the episode discription would include the original air date. Tom and Ray’s humor is timeless, but when a caller is discussing his 1992 car, a date on the episode will help us listeners decide if it’s a late model or a jalopy.”

I remember asking him what we were exactly listening too and he said it was called “Car Talk”. Finally when I get a iPhone I...”Read full review »
