But there was this fantastic MINI there.

 Woofcast #234

amviv5shirtback.jpgIt’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. It’s going to be a lot of fun and hope you all will be able to follow along.

Until Thursday gang….

sprint.jpgSince 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. WRR and MF will be covering all 4 weeks of MTTS ’08! Expect another update to come down after AMVIV, and you’ll read it here first!

 Event Update: MTTS 2008

Gina Koutros from MINIUSA took time away from getting ready for the New York Auto Show to give us some more detail on MINI Takes the States 2008!

We find out the reasoning behind selection Miami, Boston, Chicago and LA for this years event. Plus a sneak peak into the reasoning behind separate weekends. For those of you that missed it, there was a poll conducted late last year as to what type of event owners would like to see, and the four regional events won hands down!

Again, those dates for those of you that haven’t put it into your calendars yet.

  • Miami: June 13-15
  • Boston: June 20-22
  • Chicago: July 25-27
  • Los Angeles: August 1-3

Everyone is invited, even if they don’t own a MINI! Of course, there will be something special going on for owners only as well. Registration should be open around the 2nd week of April. Don’t worry, we’ll be sure to let you know when as soon as we know!

Keep an eye (and ear) out here and Motoringfile for all the news and updates about MINI Takes the States 2008. No need to look anywhere else!

 Woofcast #232

mini_cooper_d_3.jpgWe 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.

 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. Don’t forget, if you want to attend the banquet, you must purchase your ticket before the event.

Finally, be sure to wish our man Todd happy old day this coming Wednesday.

 As far as I can tell…

WRR.com is now iPhone/iPod touch friendly.

I did notice, however, that it only grabs the excerpts and you need to click more to get to the actual show.

Oh yea, and the flash player doesn’t work. But I’m sure all y’all knew that already ;) .

Enjoy! Woofcast will be posted later tonight!
