This group tends to skew a little older, so maybe this will be of interest.*
I just spent a few days gathering all the publicly available Car Talk
episodes, cleaning up the metadata, removing non-show bumpers,
normalizing volume levels, etc.
I have everything from #0717 (April 30, 2007) to current, plus a few
earlier episodes (600+ episodes) along with generated xml files for
self-hosted podcasts. Otherwise the ID3 tags should be in good enough
shape for basically any media player/library app.
Metadata includes full show synopsis for everything from #0717 on and
all the show titles I could find (pre-2010 info is very spotty). I
setup it up as two groups — original classic shows and post-retirement
(Oct 2012) remixed "Best of" shows.
I think I have some more pre-#0717 shows on old drives somewhere, but
the collection is in good enough shape to post (on
a.b.sounds.mp3.comedy?) if there's interest.
Riposa in Pace, Tommy.
*Although maybe age isn't a prerequisite as my teenage son is a huge
fan (he even had the "Help! My parents make me listen to Car Talk!"
t-shirt at a young age).
