Over the next week I will be making a few more tweaks to the site, so things might seem a little weird.
I’m not happy with the way the site loads, so I will be addressing that. I will also be getting the poll to work correctly (I have temporarily removed it). I will also be doing a few things on the server that you won’t/shouldn’t notice.
Also, the voicemail line is currently out of commission. It’s one of those things that required a ‘use-it-or-lose-it’. It didn’t get used, so we lost it. I will be coming up with another way very soon. If you have seen something that you thought was cool, by all means, let us know in the comments below!
If you haven’t had the chance to check out the comment subscribe feature, I think you’ll like it. It’s very handy to keep on top of the comments via emal. Of course, you could always subscribe to the comments feed (link on the right).
One more show coming before the end of the year. I should have that up on Sunday.
Have a great weekend everyone!
Fair warning, this episode might not be safe for work.
This show was taped live via uStream.tv and if you missed it, well, next time you might not want too. Almost 1 full hour of black roof radio after the show was done with a chat room full of MINIacs! It was great fun! If you think we should do this more often, vote in the poll!
A little reminiscing about the year that was WRR. AMVIV, The Dragon for Gabe and MINI United. What a great year we had, all of it thanks to you! In case you missed any of it.
The schedule will be a little wacky for the next few weeks, but we should be back on track by the 2nd week of January to be sure. I have also taken this time to update the Archive page with direct links to all of our shows through 200. So go nuts!
Merry Christmas, Happy New Years and all that too all you from all of us!

A bit early since Todd is going the extra to mixdown Woof 210. Here is, what I think, a cool dozen songs for your holiday travels or hangin’ out.
All tracks come courtesy of the Podsafe Music Network and Promonet. Full links to all of the tracks will be up on the 24. Like I mentioned during the show, you can download the complete show, without vocals, from this page.
From Todd, Gabe and myself, happy holidays!

We were live Thursday night! Thanks to everyone that came by to hang out with us, it was great!
This show will be going up on Sunday, and I’ll have some Christmas music for all y’all on Monday.
Have a great Holiday everyone!
Just a quick reminder to all you guys and gals that WRR will be live tonight! 7PM Pacific, 9 Central, 10 Eastern. Check back here, Motoringfile and/or dbmini for complete details.
Like last time, we are going to be using uStream, but without the video. That means will be taking advantage of their chat room as well. If you are going to want to join us, you will need an account, but it’s free and takes no time to set up!
I have also added a few new features to the site. Besides the redesign, I’ve added the ability to subscribe to comments and the live comment previewer. Check them out, let us know what you think!
We start with a bit of random exercise talk before jumping right into Todd singing, and our connection promptly dropped out!
Then a recap of the year that was 2007 at Motoringfile. All of the stories we discuss can be found at the top of Motoringfile, 1st column top under the heading Recent Featured Articles.
Live show this week. We are going to recap the year that was 2007 at WRR and think it will be fun if you join us! Check back Thursday the 20th at 7:00 PM PST/9CST/10EST to join in the fun.
And stick around after this show just a bit. Gabe kept going on and on and on about tires.

We start off tonight hating the internet. For reals. Then, some MINI2 news before moving into talking about people that are leaving the MINI brand for whatever reason.
Of course, we also cover news of the week from Motoringfile.
Great shows this week! I think you’ll approve. We have also decided that we are going to do 1 show next week and we are going to do it live! Next Thursday, 7PM PST. Keep an eye on the sites for details Wednesday.

To get us started, way back at the beginning of ‘07 I said my goal for the year was to triple the numbers of listeners from ‘06. Oh yea, we definitely did that. Thank you!
Ian Cull got an R56, we answer an email from the MF mailbox, installing an iPod and, oddly enough, games and game consoles.
No show for the 23rd or the 24th. We are going to take Christmas off. We will have stuff for you to download on those days, just no real show.

Starting, again, with Gabe’s wheel dilemma. Then, on to some sage, and fun, advce for a potential new MCS owner. And a little Zune smack down. And a little reminicing about our first cars. Plus news of the week from Motoringfile.com.
If you are a Zune owner, don’t forget you can now find the Woofcast in the Zune Marketplace. We are there under Lifestyle –> Hobbies. Even near the top too!
Check back tomorrow. We do an audio Ask MF!

Starting off with a plea from Gabe for a set of wheels for winter. As it turns out, he is not a fan of the Crown Spokes. Anything you can do to help would be greatly appreciated! And Todd is looking for a drivers side parcel shelf. Anyone willing to help out leave a note below.
Then, Todd tells a horror story concerning the ‘widow makers’. Oh no, you’ll have to listen to find out what he means. I can say that winter roads can, possibly, cause some embarrassment, not to mention serious car damage. Lessons to live by people.
Gabe didn’t really take 24 hours to build a clubman. That’s the magic of the internets right there! Long live the tubes!
Not quite 175K miles, but I’ll be there by the end of the week. Watch the Flickr for when it does happen.
We finally get around to talking about The Motoringfile Gift Guide and what we would like to have off of it.
R50/R53 owners looking for some cool accessories might want to put a call into the parts desk. There are some smokin’ hot deals to be had. Check it out.
Yes I did, in fact, buy skinyourfridge.com. Watch for it!
And, finally, add another classic TV show theme song to our repertoire, and Gabe doesn’t know about the Rockford Files! Someone back us up here.

We’re back and there is new stuff we can get to right away. First check out the the share this link below each post. Super handy for sharing WRR with your friends. Next up for you Zune users, WRR is now in the Zune Marketplace! Find us under Lifestyle –> Hobbies. Of course, we’re near the top since it’s sorted by most subscribed. Thanks!
We talk about some stuff that isn’t JCW for a bit, Top Gear before getting into the news from Motoringfile.com.
Check back tomorrow for our discussion of the Motoringfile Gift Guide. Your holiday season isn’t complete without it!
Some of you have been having trouble getting the shows via iTunes. I wish I knew what the problem was, but I don’t. Unfortuneately, there isn’t anything that I can do about that. But, keep letting me know you are having the problem! Just leave a note in the comments or use the contact form. Be sure to give your country and what operating system you are using (Windows or Mac). I know there have been weird and wacky things going on with iTunes lately and I hope everything gets sorted out soon.
