MTTS Chicago update

Posted in Episodes,MTTS — by db on 07/30/08

MTTSTodd in Chicago having way to much fun talking to some of the 1,000 MTTS attendees from all over the event site.

Including an interview with Harold Stanfield, who has 281,000 miles on his MINI. And its Silk Green! He didn’t even replace and brakes until after 180K miles. Amazing. So concludes our Chicago coverage.

Only 1 MTTS stop left. Both Todd and I will be there and it’s looking to be a great party! Keep an eye out for 1 more update about LA later today.

WRR Interview – Bosch

Posted in Episodes,Interviews,MTTS — by db on 07/27/08

MINI Cooper DieselThis past Saturday at MTTS Chicago Todd got the chance to interview Edgar from Bosch about the MINI Cooper Diesel they have in the US for testing.

It’s a great conversation about a car we don’t yet get but everyone (it would appear) wants. Hopefully they will have it in LA for us to check out.

Watch later in the week for more from Chicago from Todd.

MTTSMore in our continuing MTTS 2008 coverage. This time, Todd and I talk from Road America!

The Hollywood Car Show

Posted in Notes - db — by db on 07/25/08

A brand new show just started by myself and Fireball Tim is now ready for you to check out and it’s called The Hollywood Car Show!

Tim and I will be getting together weekly to discuss movies, cool movie cars, cool cars on TV or anywhere else we find them. Plus fun things like interviews with cool car people and other wackiness.

We’ve done one episode so far and I think it’s turned out pretty well, which is why I’m already posting it here.

The website for the show is still a few weeks away, but that’s not stopping us! You can check out the first show here for shownotes and the onsite player. You can subscribe using this link in your favorite news reader or Podcatcher or subscribe in iTunes.

Feedback is always appreciated! You can do that here or in the show notes, doesn’t matter.

Thanks for listening!

Watch for the first MTTS update for Chicago coming up later today, as well as lots of coverage as it happens!

Robert’s Soundseeing Tour #25

Posted in Episodes,Soundseeing Tour — by db on 07/22/08

It’s been a while since Robert’s done a soundseeing tour for us, being so busy with his other podcasts. This is one I’m sure you will like.

He is actually claiming that the Alta car he drove is faster than the GP. I’m sure Todd will have something to say about that!

Be sure to check out Robert’s other shows. He can be found talking about movies in his MINI at The Mobile Movie Minute and laying down sound business advice for entrepreneurs at the Business Cast. Both are great shows worth checking out!

Woofcast #260

Posted in Episodes — by db on 07/21/08

Before I start, does anyone else think it’s weird when Todd does the intro? I’m just sayin’.

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. I’ll be running things somewhat from WRR West to get those updates to you as quickly as possible. And, don’t worry. No. Video.

Factory JCW MINIWhoa. Todd and Gabe with news of the week from Motoringfile.com. 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. Like I mentioned earlier, Todd has been having connectivity issues. Shouldn’t be a problem after this week tho.

Don’t forget, coming up later today is Robert’s latest Soundseeing Tour and, later in the week, our continuing MTTS coverage.

Where’s the Show?

Posted in Notes - db — by db on 07/21/08

You might be asking yourself that very same question. As it turns out, the connectivity problems Todd experienced last week continued on to the weekend for him and his neighbors. They are sending the big truck out soon to get him squared away. In the meantime, I think he’s going to do some wardriving to find an open WiFi (or hit up Panera for lunch) and get it uploaded. Should be ready later today.

On another note, new Soundseeing Tour by Robert is done and will be getting posted today or tomorrow. It’s pretty awesome, so watch for that.

And, on yet another note, I’m starting a new show with Fireball Tim this week. First episode should be going up tonight, but you are going to have to hunt it down to find it. At least until we do 3 or 4 of them.

Don’t forget Todd will be at MTTS Chicago this coming weekend as well. Find him if you go and say hi. He might give you a decal or you can buy one of those cool, limited edition, Motoringbadges he will be selling.

Gonna be a HUGE week! Stick around.
