Unfortunately, you’re only hearing one of them.
Tom died in 2014 of Alzheimer’s, 2 years after they retired from the show.

I miss Car Talk when I hear the guys randomly, most recently on eBay auto commercials.

I guess he really did have trouble remembering last week’s puzzler.

It’s okay. It’s an actual quote from Ray:
In a statement announcing his brother’s death, brother Ray alluded to a familiar joke about the weekly puzzlers they always featured in the show.
“Turns out he wasn’t kidding. He really couldn’t remember last week’s puzzler,” Ray said. “We can be happy that he lived the life he wanted to live; goofing off a lot, talking to you guys every week and primarily laughing his ass off.”

NPR releases three episodes a week in their podcast. They’re only in like 1993 right now so it’ll be a while before they catch up.
