RoAb #64 - The '2010 Year in Review' Episode

Well, were we right?  Last year the RoAb crew tried to predict the future, or at least 2010.  Did we hit the nail on the head or were we way out in left field?  Zach Bowman, Eric Trytko and Craig Cole each peered into their respective crystal balls, in a vain attempt to divine what’s coming.  This year, Colin Bird, Michelle Naranjo, Jeff Ross and Steven Ewing join the trio of soothsayers to act as a jury, voting said predictions up or down.  So, who was right?  Who was wrong?  Who cares?  Listen to find out.

RoAb #48 - The 'One of These Things' Episode

Join us again for another installment of RoundAbout, #48, the "One of These Things is Not Like the Others" episode.  With our studio situation in flux -- not to mention our guest lineup -- things are, not surprisingly, a little off the rails (even by RoAb standards).  Up for discussion this week, a fox-body Mustang styled like a BMW, a New Zealand woman with a questionable custom license plate and a road test of the venerable Mercury Grand Marquis.  Our BLIND SPOT story of the week is aviation themed plus we discuss the Honda CR-Z, Kia Sportage and Chevrolet Corvette Z06 when we go IN THE GARAGE.  All that and a $hit-ton more on this week's awesome, amazing, stupendous episode of RoundAbout.

RoAb #30 - The 'Game Changer' Episode

The group is back for this magical episode, now available at an unbelievable price: free. Isn't that great? Isn't that wonderful? In honor of the amazing iPad we bring you the 'Game Changer' episode. An aftermarket installer is the first to embed an iPad into the dash of a Toyota Tacoma despite the device's lack of 3G or GPS. Rooster Teeth sees if a real-life truck can really be driven effectively in third-person view as it would be in a video game. A fully-functional Bugatti Veyron made out of LEGOs not only drives but can retract its hard top and shift gears. All that and more, plus our Blind Spot this week asks what's more dangerous: a woman driver, an old one or perhaps both, we play another riveting round of Meet Your Roadmates, and we take calls from the RoAb Hotline!

RoAb #13 - The 'LA' Episode

Every week like depression-era farmers we flee the Oklahoma panhandle and head west across the internet toward California, I mean, we set out to find the best news topics from the past week, and a cohesive, Zen-like theme to tie them all together. On the way, we uncover an array of different stories and news bites to fit that theme, however hopeless or worn out they may be. And whatever’s left over, well, we have a serious discussion about it anyway, because the Dust Bowl was no laughing matter.

A sporty new version of the Cadillac CTS. Honda's weird take on an eco-friendly urban vehicle. The brand new brooding Audi. That's so LA ... Auto Show 2009. Plus, Eric has the new CTS wagon In the Garage and Michelle gets a look at the new more powerful Mustang V6.

RoAb #8 - The 'Trick or Treat' Episode

Ah, great All Hallows' Eve, wasn't it? What'd you get? Giant gummi snake with a blue raspberry-flavored foam center? A treat to be sure--unless you are allergic to blue raspberry artificial flavoring or you have an irrational fear of gummi-based reptiles. Or did you get a three-year-old, stale circus peanut? A trick--unless you are an 82-year-old man who also likes those candies wrapped in the foil wrappers made to look like a strawberry. But we digress. Trick or Treat?

Woo-hoo! You're driving a custom Mustang! Boo! You learn that your bolt-in roll cage isn't worth the powder to blow it to hell. Guess what: the Audi S4 is better than you think--treat! Can a fancy luxury SUV actually scale uneven terrain, like say, two cars? Yes, trick. All that plus, our features this week: Blind Spot proves you have no one but your parents to blame for your driving ineptitude, a Halloween AutoGadget that will look super-sweet in your hearse, our favorite automotive horror stories in Highway Hearsay and more!
