Support for Car Talk is provided by:

That's right, we are now accepting your tales of interpersonal woe that require a little — or a lot — of restitution on your part.

What prompted this new endeavor? A letter from Car Talk listener Greg Shaw, who just might have accidentally caused his friend's car to meet its demise in a cigarette-induced fiery conflagration. You can read Greg's letter right here.

And what prompted Greg to write us? Well, the story of the recent birthday party of Ray's son Louis — and a certain birthday cake, for an unknown grammy, that was blissfully consumed by the Magliozzis. You can hear Ray's own restitution story right here.

If you've got a restitution story for a victim you've lost touch with, we'd love to hear from you!
