Woofcast 690: Feels Like Getting out of an F150

Todd, Chad and db catching you up on all things MINI, directly from MotoringFile. No Gabe this week as he is self-embargoing all of the new MINI stuff that is coming up later this summer! It is going to be very cool. Make sure you are following MotoringFile.com for all of the news when it becomes available. Best way to follow is RSS. Next best way to follow is the MF Instagram account.

If you missed the Pride Motoring Badge at MotoringStripes.com it’s ok. Just go over and get it ordered. Pride isn’t only a month long!

Finally, a few changes coming. I am expecting to get Ride Bikes Radio back up and running within the next couple of weeks, and our man Fireball will be joining me again for The Hollywood Car Show with the first episode also dropping in just a few weeks. It’s going to be an exciting summer!

 

Woofcast 690: They Should Have Called it Winston

Big show for you this week! Lots about electric MINIs, but first, let’s begin by providing our thoughts about Spike, and we might not have had anything nice to say about it.

It’s almost time to remind you about the awesome that was Hammer and Coop. Then we get right into the electric MINI stuff, starting with Gabe’s latest opinion piece.

For those of you that are looking for our pre-show, you can find that, 100% free of charge, at BlackRoofRadio.com. While you are there, if you would like to support the show, awesome! If not, that is totally ok too!

Woofcast 688: The Electric MINI is Dead. Long live the Electric MINI

We woke up and realized that it’s been quite a while since we last made a show. So, let’s get right to it since I’m also terribly late getting this one posted! Kicking things off, a quick reminder is that there is a new episode of Black Roof Radio available to download.

Once we get started, the title of the show pretty much describes what we were seeing at Motoringfile when we recorded. Needless to say, we are talking a lot about electric MINIs this episode. And nerd website stuff. And, Go Motoring (#IYKYK). This is to serve as your reminder that MotoringFile is your best source for MINI news. Gabe is the only one out there, really, that has the inside track. Trust me.

Add in the MINI boobs and some chatGPT and we have ourselves a show!

Finally, don’t forget the OG sponsors of White Roof Radio and Motoringfile: Outmotoring.com, Cravenspeed.com, Motoringstripes.com and Detroit Tuned.

Woofcast 687: db Sold His MINI

We managed to rally together one more time before closing out 2022! A quick not to the affliates, we do go long. We are pretty sure all y’all won’t mind. Catching up, db sold his MINI (and replaced it with a bicycle). His garage is now home to a BMW X3, which there will be more words about that coming (like, it really should be a wagon).

Then, the latest news from MotoringFile, as usual! If you missed Gabe’s review of the BMW X1, go check it out if you want to find out what the next version of the Countryman will be like. We get filled on on life with a non-JCW MINI in Gabe’s garage with a horrible name, product code relevations and spy shots of the G56, plus some other information you will find to be very interesting.

Oh, yea. Feather bowling is totally a thing.

Woofcast 686: You Aren’t Driving Fast Enough

We still aren’t driving very much, but Todd just got back from Philly, Detroit Tuned is still busy, Gabe is still pivoting. Mini (yes, Mini) Heritage Recharged, which is a classic Mini that has been fully converted to electric, to MINIs specifications. Gabe was even able to drive it!

We also catch up with Gabe and his trip to the UK to attended The Goodwood Revival which is a great story! He even got to meet Paul Smith and check out the MINI Strip Concept!

Woofcast 685: The Loss of a Legend

Starting off with our rememberance of Mr. Paddy Hopkirk. He was a great human that we were all lucky enough to meet and interview. We are still looking for the interview we did we him, but fear it might have been lost to the great server outage of aught nine.

Gabe catches us up on #mtts2022 and thank you to those of you that asked about Todd and I. We really appreciate that. Then, we have a little something to say about the MINI Aceman concept.

Don’t forget Black Roof Radio, the pre show for each episode, available to you 100% free of charge!

Woofcast 684: MINI Going to the ‘Ring

That’s right. They attached a giant wing to a JCW GP to take it to the ‘ring. Plus some #mtts2022 updates and a bit more on supply chain issues.

I am still struggling to get caught up and hope to have the site up-to-date this week or early next. For those of you that keep with us, thank you! For those of you wondering where to get Black Roof Radio, you can download it for free at blackroofradio.com!
