The Woot Wadio Podcast
8A long time ago, I lost my MP3 collection. Through random happenstance, I retained a directory listing of all of my music and I have been slowly rebuilding it. I just got to the Ws, and I had a handful of Woot mp3s I enjoyed, specifically the Woot-Off song, the Worst Woot Ever Anthem, and the Projecting song.
I found the Woot-Off song, but I have had no luck with the other two. Any chance anyone here can point me to them?

@dave Thank you!!
@dave woah. so many flashbacks hit me at once. thanks.
Wow that brought back memories!
I wasn’t around during Woot’s good old days. Thanks for the song!
@sammydog01 Back then, woot sponsored radio programs and only sold things via catalogs and phone orders.
@medz @sammydog01 And it was 6 to 8 weeks for delivery…wait…I guess that didn’t change much until recently.
@medz @therealjrn And we were damn glad to wait 6 to 8 weeks for delivery. Kids these days.
@medz @sammydog01 @therealjrn
1 star review: Shipping took 8 weeks and 1 day.
@medz @sammydog01 @therealjrn
6 to 8 months. For some of us.
But only if you lived in DFW and got the “special service”.
@f00l @medz @therealjrn Yesterday I received a hex wrench I ordered from Amazon on January 1st.
@sammydog01 I’ll bet it was fulfilled by a 3rd party seller
Not one of the ones you want, but a quick check of my old mp3 folders found the Happy Hour theme from 2010, just barely pre-acquisition iirc. https://upload.cat/c5aa8ed91d46d673
What was that site where you logged in to be a DJ, and there was a Woot room where we played 5 songs related to the theme of the day and then got off the stage to let someone else have a chance? I’ve been trying to remember the name.
@mml666 I was never in the woot room, but was it turntable.fm?
@jmnetus Yup - that’s it. Thanks.
Ferdinand Magellan!
the song
You could always ask @matthew if he retains any of that material.
Also, this great blog post, WootCasts from the Past.
