    db is rolling out the way back machine in 2026! Let's kick things off with the first episode featuring Mr. Detroit Tuned, Chad Miller! If you missed it, our first show of the year is in the feed, in which db explains his plan to make sure you guys are getting at least 1 show per month! He says he's back. Y'all should believe him. Also, I might be sneaking these out to Black Roof Radio subscribers first. Just saying. The link to subscribe can be found there.

    Woofcast 702 – Gabe Discovered Marketplace

    Starting off strong with some throw backs, some soapbox talking OMG did you see the Super Lagera video? And, did you already catch Black Roof? Yea, Woofcast 21 will be in the feed later this week too.  Nice to get to use the news music this week too. Just be sure to keep up with everything happening at MotoringFile.com. And, as we near the crazy season, don't forget any of the friends of the show; MotoringStripes, Detroit Tuned, OutMotoring.com and CravenSpeed. This week's sponsor is me. Are you L&D or work with Elevenlabs and Powerpoint? Do you need to work with Elevenlabs with Powerpoint? I would like to introduce you to Voxsmith. I've worked really hard on it and will be expecting to ship it in December.  Show LinksSuper LageraSuper Lagera VideoMINI QualityDeus Ex Machina Concepts With Holger HampfHow Leaving F1 And Launching The MINI E Made BMW An EV LeaderThe 2026 MINI Cooper Paul Smith Edition -- MINI's Biggest Special Edition Ever

    Woofcast 700: A Trail of Ibuprofen

    The 700th meeting under the White Roof has us leading off talking about poking. Who knew that was still a thing? Silliness completed, we jumped right into news from MotoringFile with a reminder about the fanciest MINI ever produced, the MINI Goodwood, before jumping into the rest of the news, stories linked below!  If you missed this years MINIs on the Dragon, don’t do that again! Luckily for us, Chad took Detroit Tuned this year and tells us all about. You know we record the pre-show, right? And we make it available to you for free!

    Woofcast 698 - Because db is Awesome

    Todd forgot how to drive an automatic, and we talk about pants. Seems like a pretty normal episode of White Roof Radio, except we also took a detour through 2007. Our studio host was super glitchy the night we recorded, so if we feel off, it's not just you! The big takeaways from this week from MotoringFile: Paddlegate!Part 1 of the Pat InterviewThe Wheels Gabe wouldn't shut up about Keep an eye on the feed this week. Gabe has given us permission to include the full interview with Pat Mckenna in the feed! Have you gone over and grabbed the feed for Black Roof Radio? When you open your app, do you see BRR698? If not, you are using the incorrect feed. It would seem I was a spaz and shared the wrong URL a few weeks ago. The correct feed can be found over at Black Roof Radio.
