Made of Win - Turpster & Keylime
Is a show that covered different kind of subjects every week from WoW. The show is now canceled due to reasons that have not been told to public.
As posted by Turpster on WoWradio forums :
Well I guess I wouldn't be much of a T if I didn't explain to you guys what is up...
...I got nothing....
Erm....You can still hear myself on The WoW Insider Show and Keylime wont be far from the airways I am sure. Will we be back sometime? I'd like to think so. Will it be anytime soon? Who knows?! Is this just some huge publicity stunt pulled by myself?

Turpster Time - Turpster
Got succeeded by Made of Win after adding Keylime as co-host for show.
The Weekend Report - Turpster & Leto
The Weekend Report began as the show Leto took on after leaving Ancient of Lore (which is now The Lorekeepers). The show was a bit of commentary on what happened in the World of Warcraft community and, Leto's own local news. Turpster then joined the show, adding his personality and parodied songs to The Weekend Report fold. The show ended when Leto left the station. Turpster is currently hosting the WoW Insider Show.[1]
Blue Plz! - TotalBiscuit
Blue Plz! was one of the longest running WoW podcasts on the internet and one of the most successful. The first Blue Plz! launched in early 2005 and ran for many episodes, and went off air under unfortunate circumstances with the host TotalBiscuit, suffering self-confessed 'burn-out'. After his return to the airwaves with the highly successful [EPIC] and it's subsequent cancellation after a long and successful run, Blue Plz! returned for a second season, which ran for another 20+ episodes, before going off the air on a high-note, TotalBiscuit not wishing to suffer burn-out a second time. Not missing a beat, the next week, TotalBiscuit new show with cohost Eriyanna and new sound-equipment, "Titan", aired.
The X - Menuet
The X, a show about general gaming, "geek" topics, console games and listener interaction used to air Saturdays on WoW Radio.[2]
[EPIC] - TotalBiscuit and KikiJiki
[EPIC] was the natural evolution of Blue Plz!. Totalbiscuit returned with a cohost, revamped features and greater focus. With Ask the Murloc turning into a long-running improvised radio-play, Nubcake News gaining scope and higher production values and the addition of World of Theorycraft which ranged from the sublime to the ridiculous, the show enjoyed wider listenership than Blue Plz! [EPIC] went off the air when Kikijiki resigned from the show-team due to real-life commitments.
The show spearheaded the 'Project Golddigger' initiative, aimed at raising awareness of goldfarming within the game and methods of which to disrupt it.
Violent Noise/Playtime - Moiren
Violent Noise, named after the WoW Radio guild Violent Noise, was a role-playing show hosted by Moiren in the Wednesday US time-slot. Every-week Moiren would name a topic like the family heritage of your character, and ask listeners to write into Moiren and tell her, after which she would read your reply on air. It helped to give your character more depth, and more ideas about how to develop him/her. Later she re-named the show Playtime and it moved to the EU Wednesday's time slot. Shortly after the time slot move, Violent Noise took a short hiatus due to Moiren's family commitments. After the Hiatus, Moiren left the station to pursue other projects.[3]
Ancient of Lore - Leto, Strixus and Kae
Ancient of Lore was the first WoW radio show geared towards the Lore of Warcraft. He started out hosting the show by himself. Two features came and passed. The short lived 'Old Uncle Mac' and 'Ancient of Trash' with Vendor Trash host Slanik, which, after introduced, carried on for most of the duration of Ancient of Lore. Later on, two other hosts came onto the scene, Strixus and Kae. Towards the later part of the life of Ancient of Lore, Blizzard announced the new alliance race for the expansion to be Draenei. Leto was against the whole concept lore-wise and lost respect for blizzard and felt because of this he could not continue his show. He gave it to Stixus and Kae, and is now known as the Lorekeepers. Leto went onto host the Weekend report with Leto.
Shadow Council - Duncor
Shadow Council was a panel discussion show where the host Duncor and 2-3 guests would discuss the many of the aspects of the game and issues the community were talking about. Shadow Council was a based of WoW Radio’s short lived show The Round Table which only had two episodes. Shadow Council’s only features were “Duncor’s Opinion” and a weekly two minute radio play called “Widget’s Lab”. The show had 20 episodes before Duncor toke it off air saying that he was running out of steam and didn’t want the show to suffer. Duncor had said he would bring the show back in some form but there has been no news of his next show as of yet. He is currently a co-host of WoW Things Considered.
User Interface - Alris and Menuet
User Interface began in September of 2006 with Speedyf40 and Menuet. In January of 2007, Speedyf40 went on to host Maxspeed with Maxmaps and, Alris took over as host of User Interface. He remained with the show until it ended in March of 2007. Alris went on to host World of Theorycraft and Menuet went on to host TheX. The show was described as "Join Alris and Menuet as they explore the World of Warcraft with...you. User Interface is the show for the community at large. Our topics change week to week so your voice and opinion can be heard. Add to that some weekly segments that are totally interactive and you have the User Interface for the community."
Short Stuff
Short Stuff was an initiative meant to create a podcastable knowledge base within WoW Radio, with short-run shows of limited length and number, on very specific topics such as classes and trade-skills. Such is the way of 'Short Stuff', shows often run for 3-4 episodes before going off the air. These shows can be downloaded through the archives after they have been aired, for easy reference by players. Short Stuff is currently on hold.

Know Your Role with Medros
Originally known as Midweek review, this show was the second show on WoW Radio, with it's host being the staff member #2 after Athalus, the original owner of the station. Medros left the station over disagreements with station management, and moved to MMO Radio, then onto the Podcast world with his new show All Things Azeroth.
Saturday Night's with Athalus
The original WoW Radio show which kicked off back in closed-beta in 2004, athalus was the station-founder, previously of Utopia Radio. His one-man show, was a huge success. The show went off the air as athalus's priorities changed and he eventually went to work for Blizzard as a GM, before moving onward to a career in SOE.
The Round Table with Illusion and others
Initially conceived as a debate show for WoW Radio this show aired several times before going off the air and contained a quiz segment. This show is thought to have given birth to Shadow Council later on and set the stage for future debate events.
The Emperor's Court with Emperor1g
One of WoW Radio's 'First generation' shows in the pre-Blue Plz era, The Emperor's Court was Emperor's R-rated look at the World of Warcraft. An extremely popular show, Emperor left the station during a crisis period and went on to produce other, popular podcasts. Reconciliation was made later on and Emperor returned in 2007 for a PvP-themed show, but only aired a single episode before deciding to pursue other projects.
Endgame with Tyrrum
A raiding-centric show pre-Burning Crusade that is thought to have spawned the strategy-centric and short-lived 'Dungeonmaster' podcasts. Contained discussion of raiding and strategy as well as some walk-through elements. The show evolved into Farm-Status later on after Tyrrum had left the station and Cadwallion had taken his place.
Farm Status with Cadwallion, Keylime, Duncor and Nobunaga
An evolution on the concept of Endgame, Farm Status covered Endgame and included a 'Naxx-watch' which tracked the progress in the bleeding-edge instance 'Naxxramus' from week-to-week with frequent updates on the big players in raiding. Known to have later become part of the groundwork for current show 'WoW Things Considered'
Stunlocked with ninety-nine
A shortlived show which began to air at the same time as Blue Plz! Ninety-nine went on to form a one-man network known as 'Stem Radio', which was a short-lived project in which he hosted Stunlocked. After a series of events, Ninety-nine is now a listener of the station once again.
Titan with TotalBiscuit and Eriyanna
How do you follow up on the legacy of two of the most popular and influential podcasts in WoW history? Namely Blue Plz! and [EPIC]? TotalBiscuit and Eriyanna reckon Titan is WoW Radio's next big-hitter. With a wealth of experience between them and on-air chemistry you've never seen before, TB and Eriyanna take on WoW head-first with a focus on future content, mechanics and raiding, with a unique 'battle of the sexes' theme as we discover, just what differences the male and female psyche really have when it comes to WoW-gaming? Featuring for the first time, a in-game challenge every week as our hosts square off to prove who's truly the 'proper dps class.' Not technically an old show, Titan is on a long hiatus.
