Thanks so much to all of you that offered suggestions and encouragement on my recent post about the lack luster performance of the XJ TALK SHOW! as far as download count.

I really enjoy doing the show so it's not going away, I just really like getting feedback so please tell me, Josh (NW99XJ), or Steve (4.3LXJ) what you like, dislike...

The main reason for this post is to get your input in something I'm just thinking about at this point.

We have a sister site WranglerTalk.com that doesn't see near the traffic or interest that this site does. Now I could do a second podcast, but one is really a lot of work, or I could add a Wrangler segment to the show.

Personally I really enjoy Wranglers, and "we" own one, but I know there can be "ill" feelings between the XJ and Wrangler (YJ, TJ, LJ, JK) crowd.

So vote in the poll and let me know how you feel about having a Wrangler segment. I know one thing we can do with Wranglers that we can't do with the XJs, "What's new from Jeep about Wranglers!" ;)

I voted the third option, because I really don't care. I think it is not the vehicle, but the attitude of the wrangler owners that is the problem. After all, we share the same front end stuff and tcases and steering on most of them anyway.

I need another option in the poll Tony... "I don't care what you put in the show, I'll enjoy it!".

You've talked about working on your TJ in past shows and I enjoyed it.

As you can see (bottom of my post) I have created a XJ TALK SHOW! banner ad. OMG IT BLINKS!

Anyway if you would like to add this to your signature, ahhh works on ALL sites using vBulletin software :D Just cut and paste this...

[ URL="http://xjtalkshow.com"][ img]http://xjtalk.com/images/special/XJTALKSHOW!-468x60-banner.gif[/img][/URL]

Remove the space after the "[" at the URL and img. Had to do this, otherwise you would just have seen the banner ad. :P

I'm cool with it, but not overpowering. Like a short segment would be fine, about five minutes.

I was reading your first post and a thought came to mind. How about a "Jeep Stories" segment? Just where someone talks about a funny or crazy story about a jeep. All that requires is it be interesting. I know i always enjoy a good story and if its about a jeep, that's just gravy.

... and YJs even have Cherokee headlights ... :smiley-laughing021:


X 2 on don't care. I had a TJ so been there done that ...

Lots of mechanical similiarities - so someone might benefit from a bit of cross model info anyways ...



Personally I wouldnt worry too much about the podcast performance ... Its a good little "extra" on the forum IMHO ...

... and as others mentioned, in the other thread ... If you're having fun doing it and theres a bunch of us saying we enjoy it ...

Then keep it going. ;)

I think if you were to continue talking about yours and ease in some info maybe from the sister site it would be fine> I think hearing about cherokee outings and get togethers would be very helpful if wrangler talk is important to you then bring it on. Ill listen anyways.... peace from the Pacific NW

I actually have no issues with adding a wrangler segment to the show... I don't mind wranglers at all, and as said above we share alot of the same parts and upgrades/talk... so wouldn't really be taking away from the show as far as :xjtalk: goes!! I mainly joke when I said wronglers or anything like that... I wouldn't mind owning a wrangler one day... just not in my price range right now.... and alot of the wrangler owners have an attitude that drives me up the wall... like their Jeep is the only Jeep that is worth a crap or something... but I know that isn't all owners.. so bring on the additional segment... and lets get the traffic going over on WranglerTalk!!

A short and sweet portion I think would be good. It it doesnt fit or relate to the other topics of the podcast then leave it out til it fits. I wish I could called in last night... coulda given yall an in progress wrenching interview! lol

Just another case of asking you guys to do something and then having to go back into the forum software and give you permission to do it. I'm an idiot, sorry, it's working now. :D

I posted up on WranglerTalk.com for a Wrangler expert that can do 15 minute Wrangler segments on the show.
