Tom Magliozzi, who, along with his brother Ray, entertained public radio listeners and auto enthusiasts as the Click and Clack Brothers of “Car Talk,’’ died on Monday. The 77-year-old Magliozzi’s passing came after a bout with Alzheimer’s disease, according to NPR.

The pair were known for bringing humor and an encyclopedic knowledge of cars to listeners every weekend for the last three decades.

The pair were famous for cracking each other up and for winding digressions in between talks about gaskets and gears.
