Datebook: June 28 - Tom Magliozzi Turns 75

You know Tom... He's one half of Click & Clack, the Tappet Brothers. In 1987, Tom and Ray became contributors to NPR's Weekend Edition, which led to the Peabody award-winning show Car Talk. Even though they retired in 2012, and we miss them dearly, we still wish Tom a happy birthday!

It’s Friday, June 28
