| Woofcast #211 January 6, 2008 Duration: 27:04 Just Gabe and I tonight. Todd was watching his Jayhawks win the Orange Bowl! Before getting into it, db has finally figured out how to record and I think you will enjoy this show. We pick on GP’s just a bit, but not really. Be sure to check out the new features of the site, especially the subscribe to comments via email. If you are hardcore and prefer to subscribe to comments via RSS, you can find the comments feed here. Then, news of the week from Motoringfile. Check back tomorrow for a fun show we did before New Years, joined by Matt Gifford. It was a great fun and I think you’ll really enjoy it! As a bonus, I will have that one ready for you earlier than normal, so keep an eye out here and in iTunes (or the Zune Marketplace) for that to show up.

| Woofcast #212 January 7, 2008 Duration: 28:41 Gabe got the idea to record a little something right before New Years since he had Matt Gifford at his place. We spent about 1/2 hour talking about MINI stuff, including going through the top 10 Motoringfile stories of 2007. It was great fun and we think you’ll enjoy this show. With the craziness of the holiday finally behind us, we will be back on track with regular shows getting posted at regular times. We are also going to be doing even more live shows and on a more regular schedule. Keep an eye on the sites for more information on that. And, as I mentioned last night, the voice mail line no longer works. It was a use-it-or-lose-it thing. It didn’t get used so we lost it. Not to worry as I will be coming up with a new way for you to leave audio comments. Finally, for your viewing pleasure, you can check out the Noodle Rocket.

| Woofcast #213 January 13, 2008 Duration: 48:04 We are all back for our first real show of ’08 with a long show getting caught up. To start, for those of you having trouble with iTunes, I have no idea what the problem is. The only thing I can think is to try to subscribe manually instead. Of course, any tips or tricks that you might have for us and the WRR listeners would be greatly appreciated! AMVIV is coming up sooner than you think. Click over and register and get your room if you are planning on staying at Palace Station. There you will also find the schedule of events and other things that are going on in Las Vegas that same weekend. Keep an eye out for a live show schedule. We’ve got it down enough to actually be able to do it on a regular basis. Finally, news of the week from Motoringfile. Yes, I’m pretty sure we did some of the news last week, but we pushed on regardless. And yes, we talked about a monkey powered MINI. Check back tomorrow for some rousing opinions on the Smart car.

| Woofcast #214 January 14, 2008 Duration: 40:36 Not so much with the MINIs tonight. Well, at little with the MINIs, but mostly about how MINI will be affected by SMART coming to the US. Personally, I’m not terribly interested in them, unless I can get the crazy looking one over there. The video was already posted on MF. Click here if you missed it. It was part of a huge video Friday that you can revist here. And you must check out the Tata Nano from India. Only $2500 and we think it would self-destruct on impact. AMVIV update…rooms are going fast. In fact, Tower Rooms are all booked, only Garden Room remain. Get yours while the getting is good! Also, just confirmed Robert in Toronto will be joining us this year at AMVIV! Someone will have to run him up to the snow to keep him from getting too home sick.

| Woofcast #215 January 20, 2008 Duration: 21:00 Starting with a bit of confusion. No, you didn’t hear an edit. Honest, we didn’t spend 20 minutes talking about warranty stuff and cut it out of tonights show. We really didn’t. But, if you tune in next week, there is a good chance we’ll be revisiting it. AMVIV, or A MINI Vacation in Vegas or the event that Gabe won’t be attending. You should go over and make sure you are registered. By the way, Robert in Toronto and Michael Babischkin will both be there with us. Almost a full crew! Gabe has news that he, again, is withholding. Maybe one of these days he’ll let us in on what it is. Otherwise, news of the week from Motoringfile.com.

| Woofcast #216 January 21, 2008 Duration: 38:57 db does his best Steve Jobs, Gabe learns about off the hook and Todd times us on Apple talk. Wow, all that in the first 5 minutes too. Then, a few minutes talking about the weather and Gabe’s plans for the future. Oh yea, that’s all you get. You’ll have to listen for the rest.

| Woofcast #217 January 27, 2008 Duration: 33:42 How about a little brake talk before getting going? By the way, if you are wondering, US$1,000 is pretty steep for a brake job on the MINI. It’s about the easier car to do brakes on. Moving on to things that we either have to replace or have replaced but didn’t work. We even included a few minutes of Mac talk in there somehow too. Plus, news of the week from Motoringfile. We were live for tonight and tomorrows show via uStream.tv. Thanks to everyone for coming by and playing along from home! So you know, we do the show every Thursday at 7PM PST. If you would like to join us, keep an eye out the morning of because a reminder will be posted.

| Woofcast #218 January 29, 2008 Duration: 37:08 Gabe does a rockin’ intro to get us started and we jump right into our 2 minutes of tech talk, reminding everyone that the great RSS reader NetNews Wire is now free. Then Todd and Gabe are putting Windows on their Macs. In February, Gabe will be going on the BMW/MINI Press Junket for Rolls Royce, BMW //M3 and 1 Series as well as the Clubman. Watch MF in the coming weeks for more information about that, including a way that you can even help with the reviewing! And the big part we cut out last week about warranty stuff. Remember, when in doubt, check with your SA. They will always steer you in the right directions. Finishing with a few questions from our live audience. Don’t forget, we do this on Thursdays and the next time live it will get posted on MF and here the morning of.

| Woofcast #219 February 3, 2008 Duration: 35:51 Starting off talking a bit about the outdoor carting that our respective clubs do. I did miss it this weekend, but hopefully I’ll be able to take part next time around.A quick AMVIV reminder before rolling into news of the week, including some lively discussion, from Motoringfile.com Don’t forget, if there is something specific you would like Gabe to check out while he is on the big BMW press junkets later this month, leave a comment and he will see what he can do.

| Woofcast #220 February 4, 2008 Duration: 40:30 A bit of tech talk before going into our thoughts about the outcome of Street Tuner Challenge. That brings us to a question; Is it possible to tune an R56 to the same levels that you can an R53? Quite a bit of discussion ensues and we do go a bit long. Then a reminder about Gabe going on the BMW Press Junket. Click here to leave a question for Gabe to think about as he drives the Clubman and 1 Series. Don’t bother with the questions about the Rolls Royce since he probably won’t get to drive one. Watch for interviews coming up before AMVIV. I’m asking everyone now and hopefully we can get them in the show soon. This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 United States License.

| Woofcast #224 Feburary 18, 2008 Duration: 55:55 As mentioned a bazillion times already, Gabe went to the BMW Press Event in Monterey, California, last week. And this is his story, plus our questions. A note to our affliates, this show does go long. Weighing in at an impressive 55:55, we let Gabe cover his entire week, pretty much start to finish. I think you’ll be surprised about his take on the automatic transmission in the Clubman, and his thoughts, overall, on the //M3. Be sure to check back to WRR tomorrow. Robert in Toronto stopped by the Toronto Auto Show and snagged a bit of video of the Clubman in the MINI Booth! We have also been tossing around a few ideas this week that we will be discussing on next weeks show. Listen up! We will, as always, be looking for your feedback.

| Woofcast #227 March 2, 2008 Duration: 37:25 Starting off sick, then to weather, potholes and where we are going to eat in Las Vegas. If you are planning on going to AMVIV, make sure you register. Also, the good room rate is sold out, but I heard Palace Station might release a few more at the discounted rate, kinda. Keep an eye on the site for that to happen. Finally, news of the week from Motoringfile.com. Links? Sure. JCW Official Release The News Room is back! UK JCW Release JCW Videos that you must watch.

| Woofcast #228 March 3, 2008 Duration: 49:30 Almost an hour of us talking about the Clubman. Pro’s and cons, Clubman vs. Clubman S. Then, of course, we had to talk about the JCW MINI. These are our thoughts and we would appreciate yours! So much for the general automotive ‘cast this week. With so much stuff going on, we decided to push it off until next week. If you are still on the fence about AMVIV, Palace Station has 30 rooms left at a new rate. It’s not the same as the original rate, but better than the rack rate for the weekend. Get on it quickly if you want to book your room. They won’t last! Keep an eye out as well for Whiteroof.tv, the newest site Under the White Roof. That will be our video site and you can expect to see some things happening over there very soon, plus quite a bit from AMVIV. I hope to have it set-up in iTunes by the end of the week and will post the link that as soon as it’s done. But, for now, you can go over and subscribe or sign up for updates via email.

| Woofcast #230 March 11, 2008 Duration: 35:41 We have a go at doing a show talking about cars other than the MINI. Plus Gabe has a 5 series in his garage, Todd and Gabe start talking BMW again and we talk more about Top Gear. I think we did a pretty good job, what do you think? Chime in with topic suggestions as well, we’d love to hear ‘em! A bunch of you have already found Whiteroof.tv and have subscribed in iTunes. This caused wr.tv to jump to #20 in the automotive category in the first week of going live! Thank you!

| Woofcast #231 March 16, 2008 Duration: 38:56 News of the week with db and Todd. Gabe? Oh, don’t worry about him. He’ll be with us tomorrow. I was, in fact, in the middle of dealing with the plague, so I aplogize now for any inordinate mouth breating. But not tonight. Tonight it’s just Todd & db, hanging out, talking about old time Saturday morning cartoons, me having the plague and taking meds that don’t work, and briefly on the price of gas. All that before getting into news of the week from Motoringfile.com. Oh yea, WRR should look a little better for you iPhone/iPod touch users. wr.tv will be next, but not until later in the week. Go back a post and check out the AMVIV Event Cast if you haven’t already, click over to AMVIV.com to see if there are any rooms left on the discounted room rate and to register.

| Woofcast #232 March 17, 2008 Duration: 46:08 We could call this a general automotive show. Starting with some talking about St. Patrick’s day and on to our coffee of the day, since we recorded this on Saturday morning. Moving on to the topic of the day. Navigation systems; in-car vs portable. All the information we could find, advantages of each, disadvantages of each and I’m pretty sure we disagreed on more than one item. This is a show I’m sure all y’all will enjoy! Gabe will be leaving for holiday on Thursday, so we’ll be without him for 233 & 234, but we will have Robert Gold and Michael Babishkin to do news and a bit of AMVIV preshow. It should be a lot of fun! Maybe I can talk Todd into letting us go live. What do you think? You know what to do! AMVIV starts next week and our schedule will be a little on the wacky side. Keep an eye on iTunes for audio and video posts (don’t forget to subscribe to the video), plus those posts will be showing up here and Motoringfile.

| Woofcast #233 March 23, 2008 Duration: 26:05 Since Gabe is out of town, we thought it would be a treat to have Michael and Robert on this week as a precursor to AMVIV next week. A quick recap of how Micheal got to be known as the ‘Free Porn King’ of Las Vegas and Robert is subscribing to WRR in Apple stores all over Canada. Then, of course, news of the week from Motoringfile.com. As we’ve been saying for the last bit of forever, the four of us will be at AMVIV later this week. If you are going, be sure to come by and say hi! Or keep an eye out here for audio, video, photos and words. We’ll have your covered! And nowhere else to go for your MTTS news and information.

| Woofcast #234 March 24, 2008 Duration: 28:09 It’s the AMVIV crew once again, wandering though the Monday episode of the Woofcast where we talk about the weather, and Robert spanking us about it on one of his shows. Then, some time talking about events in general, including the Dragon. Of all of us, Michael is the only one that has gone to both and he helped us with some info about that. If you are going to AMVIV, be sure to come by and look us up. If you aren’t going, keep an eye out here, over at Whiteroof.tv for video plus Motoringfile for all of it.

| Woofcast #235 April 6, 2008 Duration: 35:49 We back from AMVIV and a bit wiped out. Todd and Gabe are both suffering the effects of jet lag and all 3 of us are a bit slow. Quick program update. We are all taking this week off (don’t worry, we’ll have something for you) and we will be sans Gabe until after MoTD. Of course I had to pimp Whiteroof.tv. Go on and check it out if you haven’t already. There is quite a bit of video from AMVIV, which we recap tomorrow night. But not tonight. Tonight it’s news of the week from Motoringfile in all of it’s bionic goodness. This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 United States License.

| Woofcast #236 April 7, 2008 Duration: 22:47 To start, apologies again for the mixup with #235. The problem should be fixed now or very shortly. Moving on, Todd and I take the time to recap AMVIV. We realized that we were busier than we have been before and were amazed at the number of people we didn’t get to talk to. A good time was had by all we think. If you missed any of the video, check out Whiteroof.tv for all of that. There is more audio yet to come tomorrow, so keep an eye out for that as well. Quick program note. No new Woofcast next week as we are taking the week off. Also, we will be without Gabe for the rest of the month. He should be returning after MoTD or shortly thereafter.

| Woofcast #237 April 20, 2008 Duration: 41:02 Starting off talking about all manner of things. Gabe’s absence, Speed Racer, John Force and George Barris. I do have a correction to make. The Original Batmobile was a Lincoln, not a Buick. I totally mis-spoke. And, yes, Todd is smokin’ serious crack for thinking the Mach 5 looks like a ‘Vette. There is an interview with Fireball Tim and George Barris, but the only link I could find was in iTunes. If you are interested, you can find it here. You caught the official bit at the beginning, right? Keep us subscribed for all the updates as they happen, plus complete MTTS coverage from all 4 event sites! It’s going to be awesome and we hope to meet many of you at each event. All that before, finally, getting to news of the week from Motoringfile.com. Rumor has it Gabe might actually be with us this week since his trip plans have changed and there is another rumor that I am trying to start that we will actually do a live show.

| Woofcast #238 April 21, 2008 Duration: 39:48 I know I know. I said 237. 237 was last night. This is really 238. Honest! A bit of small car talk and history for you tonight. There was the Honda Civic, the CRX, and Chevy Sprint. Besides those, we cover a bit of history of the small cars in the US and how everyone seems to be switching back to the smaller cars. Finishing up, we of course have to talk a little about MINIs and just how awesome our little car truly is. Finally, a few tire tips to help you get better mileage. And some talk about a few podcasts that we really like. Check the link on the side for the complete list. There are some great shows there, and all of them are fans of the show. Oh yea, Crossroads was really a movie. No foolin’. Finally, any interest in going on a cruise with a bunch of other MINI people and Whiteroofradio? Let us know below. If there is enough interest, we’ll pursue it further. This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 United States License.

| Woofcast #239 April 27, 2008 Duration: 31:51 Recorded before a live internet audience last Thursday, Gabe, Todd and myself get together to do news of the week from Motoringfile.com. Big thanks to everyone for your emails and comments for last weeks shows! We do appreciate it. There is a very good chance we will be live again this week. Different day/time to hopefully allow more of our international listeners to get in on the fun. We are going to try for 8AM PST/11EST/10CST Saturday, May 3rd. Watch the sites for more info as we get closer. And, remember gang, life lesson here. Don’t start a forest fire by almost dying. We’re just sayin’.

| Woofcast #240 April 28, 2008 Duration: 41:44 Fun and games during our most recent live show. We all picked two cars, one priced at $10K or less, and the other at $30K or less. I think you’ll enjoy our picks. And, another great reason why you don’t want to miss our live shows. I would have put the links back, but they were all already dead. Then we spent some time answering questions from our live audience. Again, another reason why you don’t want to miss us live. So, we are going to give you another chance. We will be recording this coming Saturday at 8am PST/ 10am CST / 11am EST / 4pm (I think) GMT. More details will follow later in the week.

| Woofcast #241 May 4, 2008 Duration: 28:11 Another live show. Yes, that’s two in a row. If you missed it, don’t worry. We recorded this one Saturday morning instead of Thursday night. Don’t worry, we’ve got this down fairly well (even did video this last time) so there is a better than average chance that we will be doing it more often. This one, news of the week as usual from Motoringfile.com. Something we brought up in conjuction with the server move is comment moderation. If you leave a comment and it doesn’t show up for about an hour or so, use the contact form over at MF and someone will fish it out for you. Sometimes the spam queue gets a bit rambuctious. And, things might look a bit strange over at WRR for a few days. It did NOT affect any of the shows, just the appearance of the site. Don’t worry, normal service shall resume shortly.

| Woofcast #242 May 5, 2008 Duration: 32:44 Another from our live outing last Saturday. Before getting into talking about MPG and the JCW MINI we had a little Cinco de Mayo Celebration. It was fun if you missed it. If you did miss the live outing because I forgot to post it the day before, you could always follow me on Twitter. I post that kind of thing there all the time. Also, some requests out the WRR Audience. Looking for someone to run the WRR MySpace Page and, if you fancy yourself a writer and would like to write a review of a product that you have used to share with the MF audience, let us know. MTTS is right around the corner! We’ll be bringing you full coverage from all of the events as well as the road trip from Miami to Boston!

| Woofcast #246 May 19, 2008 Duration: 27:19 Yes, you heard me correctly. This was take 2. The live audience actually got to listen to us record this episode, in full length, twice. It worked out because it turned out to be a better show. Tonight we spend some time talking about Hypermiling. Links? Oh, you betcha. There is the Hypermiling.com site. My suggestions and techniques came from this page. And there is this article at Edmunds which has a few more extreme examples. Todd was working from this. Even more good techniques can be found here too. The things we do to save gas. Of course, you could always use public transportation, ride a bike or walk. But where’s the challenge there?

| Woofcast #247 May 26, 2008 Duration: 37:58 Last week was Todd, this week was me. Sorry for the delay in getting the show into the feed! I say it’s Woof 247, but really, it’s not. With MTTS right around the corner, and this being Memorial Day weekend in the US, we decided to take the week off. Not to worry, I pulled a couple of great shows out of the archives for you. Tonight, let’s go back to 06/05/06 for Woof 66 where we learn, among other things, that Gabe can’t whistle. Full notes below. We will be back next week to get warmed up for MTTS, plus we have another interview scheduled with Gina Koutrous from MINIUSA that will be going up later this week or the first part of next. Woofcast 66 Server issues…geek stuff…blah blah blah…geek stuff…blah blah blah. Anyway, there were issues most of yesterday that didn’t get corrected until early this morning. We do actually cover the news of the week and then some, but first… Gabe can’t whistle? But he can snap like a MoFo! db rants on traffic and waking up early. Todd has nothin’ but a pair of fuzzy slippers and a robe and some cool special effects. Oh yea, Gabe drops a joke bomb. Then we cover news of the week. Want to see what made db giggle? Check it. Oh yea, don’t forget to check out the Stracco interview if you haven’t already. BMW Says No Pixars MINI Section MINI Challenge at Pembrey JCW GP Euro Owners Manual A new way to get Motoringfile.

Worth a re-listen if only to hear Gabe attempt an intro. It’s truly awesome. Don’t worry, we’ll be back next week just like you like. We only need a short break! Woofcast #141 Show Notes To start with, db just didn’t want to do the intro tonight. You benefit. Trust me. Did you see this? Poor guy. db is soooo close to 150K miles it’s not even funny.

| Woofcast #249 June 1, 2008 Duration: 30:23 Todd and myself take a quite romp through the last two weeks news from Motoringfile without Gabe since he was otherwise unavailable. Watch for a new badge coming soon. Details in the show. Go back and catch our last interview with Gina from MINIUSA if you missed it. It should also be in the feed now. Sorry about that. Also, most of the MTTS details have been posted including route information for the run from Miami to Boston, including hotel suggestions. All of the bands have been announced as well. You can get all of this information, plus sign up for updates via email or subscribe via RSS at minitakesthestates.com. While you are there, take a minute to 2 to register for the event you are going to attend. Tomorrow Todd talks hypermiling with his 3 Series Wagon vs. his ’03 R53. And we rant a little.

| Woofcast #250 June 2, 2008 Duration: 29:22 We start off with some rambling, some MTTS stuff and a reminder that we do accept, quite gladly in fact, beverages of any type. Todd does go through the hypermiling techniques that he is using to get close to 25mpg out of his 3 Series Wagon in the city. It helps that he is battling with his wife, who is getting 32mpg out of an ’03 R53! I still have him beat with my 30mpg in the city, but I didn’t want to rub it in. MTTS is almost here! We are going to be everywhere with our recorders, cameras and laptops posting all kinds of things here and at MF. But, if you want to make sure you get all of it when it happens, here are a few other places to stalk db follow along. I’ll be posting all of my pictures at Flickr. Videos will be going into the feed at WR.tv and on the web at Viddler. And short updates via Twitter or FriendFeed should Twitter go down. Check the sidebar at my motoring blog for even more ways to follow along. If you are close to any of the stops along the Miami to Boston Rally, let us know!

| Woofcast #251 June 8, 2008 Duration: 37:53 Just Todd and I hangin’ out, talking about news from Motoringfile.com. We are not 100% sure if Gabe still has a MINI or listens to the show. We are 100% sure he is busier than a one legged man at a pie eating contest, so we are cutting him very huge amounts of slack. Want to check out the Ultimate Apocalypsemobile? here’s the link. New special from Outmotoring.com for the month of June. Save $10 on all purchases over $150! Listen up for the code. Lots of MTTS updates. We will be there this week!

| Woofcast #252 June 9, 2008 Duration: 28:48 Our last show before MTTS. Remember we are going to be live from the event and the road! I actually did some testing with a cell connection that you can check out below. Audio is great, video is not that hot. But, if we get a good connection on the road, we’ll try to do video as well. About the hydrogen pumps in Southern California, check out this Gizmodo article. We spend a bit of time talking about this and what we think the next big thing is actually going to be. We will be at MTTS at the end of the week. Stay tuned in here, MF and WR.tv for all the action. Complete details for keeping track of everything while we are there and on the road will be coming in another day or two.

| Woofcast #253 June 29, 2008 Duration: 43:27 For those of you that got episode 220 in your reader/iTunes, here it is, corrected. News of the week from Motoringfile.com, but since it was mostly MTTS related, we recapped the week instead. We had a great week and you’ve seen most of it. To recap, we posted over 700 photos, over an hour of video and almost 2 hour of audio! Thanks everyone for checking it out or coming by to say during the event. It was great to meet you all! Planning to attend Chicago or LA? Don’t forget to register. They also posted quite a few updates during Miami and Boston that you can see here. Check back tomorrow for the JCW show.

| Woofcast #254 June 30, 2008 Duration: 35:03 The JCW Show! We talk about the Factory JCW, the JCW Challenge Car and I give my thoughts on the R53 vs R56. See that R/C car up there? Ridemakerz are only making a limited number of them, and they will only be available at the last 2 MTTS events! Speaking of limited number, Todd is also selling a very limited edition Motoringbadge that is also only available on-site at MTTS. If you want one, you’d better find him early ’cause they go quick!

| Woofcast #255 July 6, 2008 Duration: 40:36 A bit of random chat before we get started, talking about tires and brakes. We are looking for those among us that have experienced tire pressure loss in run flats after sitting for a week or more. Todd’s MINI had 4 flat tires after MTTS and it just sat. Since he boosted them, he hasn’t experienced any loss at all. Watch for us to get guys from Continental on the show soon. We had some great discussions with them at MTTS. But not this week. For this week, it’s news of the week from Motoringfile.com. Don’t forget to register for MTTS if you are going. At the very least, you check out the updates that were posted during the first 2. If you are looking for the brake tool at Harbor Freight, you can find it here. I don’t know if it works, but for $4.00, it might be worth trying. They also have an air-powered unit that you can find here, if that’s how you roll. Check back tomorrow when we talk about the cool fuel-saving features that we don’t get in the US.

If you don’t want to hear about it, skip ahead 15 minutes. Once we get passed that, we do get right into the news of the week at Motoringfile.com. We spend quite a bit of the time talking about the cold start issue, and, of course, the latest MTTS updates. Follow that link if you have any questions pertaining to MTTS Chicago or LA. Gina will be keeping an eye on those comments this week and will be answering all of those questions very soon. Please keep them MTTS related.

And, as you can imagine, they spend of good portion of the night talking about the new JCW MINI. Sorry for the delay in getting this one up.

Todd and Gabe again with Gabe trying to get caught up on all of things that he wanted to talk about it. Mostly about the Clubman and the JCW. It’s great to have him back this week and this is a great show that I’m sure you will enjoy! MTTS Round 2 coverage starts this weekend with Todd in Chicago.

| Woofcast #261 August 11, 2008 Duration: 34:23 Yes, ladies and gentlemen, you have found the World Famous White Roof Radio. We noticed that it has been a bit since we have done a ‘real’ show. Now that MTTS is finished, we should be getting back on track next week. For tonight, we covered a few of the stories from Motoringfile.com and close out MTTS. Now that MTTS is finished, be prepared for us to focus our energy on MINI United 2009, happening in England. If you don’t have a passport, now is a great time to get that taken care of. And, as more details become available, we will have them first! This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 United States License.

Starting off with a little Olympic coverage and ranting before getting into news of the week from Motoringfile. If you missed it, the professional photogs that were with us during all of the MTTS stops have put all of thier photos up available for purchase. You can find them all over at mttsphotos.com. There are a ton of great photos! If you are curious about this whole RSS thing and want to jump on the bandwagon, let us know. I’m more than happy to help out. Finally, there are some minor quality issues this time around. I sound a little fuzzy. Didn’t know it happened and the problem has already been corrected.

| Woofcast #263 August 18, 2008 Duration: 33:44 Before we even start, is Jennifer Garner in the house? If so, please leave a note for Todd. Moving on. Todd has a new theme song. Practically made me choke. We were kinda on fire tonight, and you get to benefit. Among the things we talk about is this Audi R8 that is beyond awesome. You should follow that link and check it out. Besides Todd wanting an R8, we also talk a short bit about the upcoming Chevorlet Volt. Todd tried out the Dynolicious iPhone App. His GP is putting out a whopping 13hp! Wooooooo! More testing will follow, don’t you worry. Have you tested it? What did you think? Leave a note or comment on Facebook page. We finish by talking JCW. One of my favorite topics. Actually, we started talking about my experience with the Factory JCW car at MTTS and goes from there. If you want to get any of the photos from MTTS that were taken by the photographers that were there, do yourself a favor by clicking over to mttsphotos.com. If you are looking for all of our MTTS coverage because you missed any of it, you can find it here. Next week we will be 3. Listen in to see who if Gabe can’t make it. Finally, how about some itunes reviews? We’re at 46 right now and we think 4 more for our 3rd birthday would be nice. While you are there, why not press the subscribe button again?

| Woofcast #264 August 24, 2008 Duration: 37:38 Joining us tonight is Chad from Detroit Tuned to help us out with news from Motoringfile and a few other things. Keep an eye on SpeedTV for the upcoming episode of Pinks featuring the ABF MINI. If you missed the AMVIV announcement, it’s here. Remember, book early and save some $$ OR design new art and get your whole trip almost free of charge. Does anyone know where the term “put a pin in it” comes from? Social stuff. Todd is on Twitter, so is db and you can WRR over at Facebook. Friend us up, especially Todd on twitter ’cause nobody thinks he’ll post there either. Finally, I briefly mentioned it here and I’ve posted it once, but I have started a new show with Fireball Tim and you can find that over at thehollywoodcarshow.com. We talk about movies, cars in movies and interview cool people. Show number 5 goes up this week and I think it’s worth checking out.

| Woofcast #265 August 26, 2008 Duration: 45:50 Joined again by Chad Miller from Detroit Tuned. If you are in the greater Detroit area and looking for an independant shop to work on your MINI, check ‘em out. And if you are still suffering from the stuck air bag light, check with your dealer. Chad thinks they extended that warranty again, so it’s worth checking out. We talk about Todd’s experience with the new iPhone/iPod touch app Dynolicious which told him his GP has gone from 13hp to 590hp. In fairness, he hasn’t been able to fully test it yet. Of course, that led to us talking about dynos in general and what kind of tuning Chad has been doing to the R56. Otherwise, a little sales talk, a little dealer talk, Todd’s Honda Del Sol (again), and parts stock, among other things. As I mentioned during last nights show and tonight, I have started a new show with Fireball Tim called The Hollywood Car Show where we talk about upcoming movies, cool cars in movies and in television. I think it’s a lot of fun and think you might like it too. Find it at thehollywoodcarshow.com. Contest? Been a while since we did one of those. Remember, you have to leave a comment in the show notes at WRR to be able to play along. Oh, and you have to listen to the show to see what it is. Winner gets a free WRR T-Shirt! If you work at a MINI dealer in any way shape or form, you can’t play along. Sorry. Finally, Todd and I both use Twitter. I’m dbwilldo, Todd is Toddsmods. Follow Mr. Cone too.

Stick around because he’s with us tomorrow as well! We talk about news, Todd figuring out Dynolicious and getting really good results from it and upcoming reviews at Motoringfile among other things. Thanks to those of you that have brought our review count on iTunes up to 50! We really appreciate it, especially the happy birthdays.

| Woofcast #267 September 1, 2008 Duration: 30:21 The three of us back again for a Monday night and off to a silly start. That’s what happens when we are drinking coffee during the show. We spend some time talking about the comparison between VW and MINI, then Gabe and Todd go off on a JCW tangent. At least I think they did since my eyes pretty much glazed over as soon as soon as they started. Todd did talk about the $40k Clubman again. As soon as Todd gets back from Vegas I will get him to post a picture. Play along at home. If you are spending $40K on a car, what else could you buy besides a JCW Clubman, new or used? Thanks again to everyone that has left us the most recent reviews on our iTunes page! We really appreciate it. Of course, if you have something nice to say, feel free to post away!

Be sure to check back tomorrow for 271. We go pretty long talking about the new Crossover concept and how we think it will affect MINI. I think we covered some great points that you might (or might not) appreciate it. If you are one looking for the contact form, it was pointed out to me last week that there wasn’t a link to it. That has been corrected. You can also find it here. If you are looking for a new automotive site to read, check out Ausmotive.com. Those fellas do a great job! Twitter?

The three of us going into some great detail about the R60 concept with a new format that worked very very well.

That is correct ladies and gents, Gabe, Todd, Michael and myself talking about MINI stuff for you on a Monday night, like we like to do. We start with news from MF, including spending a fair amount of time on Gabe’s review of the JCW car and my MINI turning 200K miles. Plus some tips as well as a few things you might want to watch out for as your MINI gets up in miles. Before I go further, none of us doing anything other than recycle any of the fluids that come out of our cars. We always dispose of them properly. We were just goofin’. Do you use Twitter? If you do, you should friend up Todd, Gabe, Michael and myself. Theme song for today’s show is Understood by your Dad by Brad Sucks. Good stuff.

| Woofcast #280 December 22, 2008 Duration: 49:49 Final show for 2008. We manage a full crew and everything. And, of course, we end up with a crappy connection. So, apologies around for that extra hiss in this shows recording. We covered news of the week from Motoringfile.com as usual. It was nice to have Gabe with us tonight and he added quite a bit, as he usually does. Then a bit of recap of the year that was WRR/MF. We did some really cool stuff this year! If you missed any of it, you can go back and check the MTTS and AMVIV. It doesn’t seem like much, but remember MTTS did stretch over a combined time span of almost 2 weeks! We hope everyone has a great holiday. We’ll be back next year with more cool stuff and hopefully better sound. One of the things coming back next year will be the event cast, so make sure to pass the word along to your clubs and listen for details after the first of the year.
