   WoW! very interesting to see the first show again after the more recent episodes I thought that i would try to post a comment about episodes 1-500. Especially as Gary was going to possibly give a 4th gen wristband to all the commenters on a random episode!

   Also, just for something a little different, I will leave a little 500 word review of WLTV. One. Word. At. A. Time. In the next 500 episode comments. Cheers all! Dan

   First word: “Daring”

   I am not a wine drinking but I enjoy first episode but I don’t think this show will ever get a lot of viewers. O wait we are in 2008 now. Never mind I guess I was wrong. (hehe) Plus I enjoy the sirens in this episode. http://corkd.com/img/btn-addcomment.gif

   Since I started drinking wine, it just hit me that I have been using wine metaphors to describe things. I guess that’s “wine imitating life” or wine philosophy of some sort.

   Anyway, this episode is like a bottle of good bordeaux that just got opened, if that makes sense — The flavors have not exploded yet.

   Just watched your first video, how long do you think it will take me to make it through them all?

   I had to comeback and watch the start. Man, how you and the show have progressed! I can tell you guys have upgraded the camera!! And your style and reviews have come a long way, it’s great to see!

   Thanks for keeping up the old shows, I don’t know why more folks don’t leave more content up on there web-sites! Especially wineries!

   Hi Gar,

   Came back to watch this one as I only know your recent (vibrant exuberance) personality…

   wow, my oh my, how far we’ve come… especially on descriptions… (”great nose, good color, good balance…. ” that was it!!!), thank God for all your adjectives now…

   best from Costa Rica again…

    This episode cracks me up beyond belief.

    Between the video quality, multiple glasses, the lack of energy (well…the GV levels that I’ve gotten to know) and “Vaynerchuk” being a single word, I don’t recognize the show at all. I am looking forward to seeing how the shows evolved.

    (Excellent show, btw Great start!)

    I managed to get my hands on a bottle of 2001 La Joie. I think I’m going to have to hold onto it for a little while before cracking it open.

    hey gary! Love what you are doing here. I’ve been a lurker for the past two weeks and this is my first post. I thought I’d go back and watch all your videos if nothing other than to entertain myself (and maybe learn something along the way!).

    a little about myself: I am a big single malt scotch fan and not so much in wine, although I do love a good dry red wine. Big fan of the oak monster and splinters. silk is sometimes good, sometimes bad. live near where the 287 hits the 87, or where the garden state hits the NY thruway. And yes, I’m in lawschool.

    I heard about this site over on the whiskymag.com forum (where I can be found) and have been glued here ever since. big BIG fan of the KOSHER wines, so I’d love to see a lot of them mixed in to your regular episodes.

    keep it up and get fa’shnikin and shiker!

    My name is Will and I was a lurker.

    This is my first comment and I’ll be working my way all the way up through the older episodes until I catch up. I’ve really enjoyed all of the recent shows I’ve seen so far.

    A little bit about me: I’m in my mid 20’s and I’m a cook. I have limited experience with wine, mostly from a couple classes in culinary school but I feel my PAL is a little above average when compared to those new to wine because of all the food/aromas I’m around. I’ve already bought more wine in the first 2 months of 2008 than the past 5 years combined. That said, theres still a bazillion different wines I haven’t tried but I’m doing my best to experience as many as I can.

    Thanks for getting me into the whole wine thing. Gary, your passion just bleeds out of my computer monitor and infects anybody within sight. Wine is yet another awesome thing that makes me smile just like I do when I’m with my family, traveling the world, listening to kickass music, or eating amazing food.

    Wow, the Thunder Show has come a long way but you are still the same humble, un-pretentious, and extremely passionate oenophile that you were in the very first episode. Gary, keep up the great work and never ever forget your roots, your family, and your own inner strength and passion for wine and the world. (Like you could.) We love you!

    A good and humble start to the current phenomenon, the “Thunder Show.”

    I’m a huge wine fan, and I think the industry needs more approachable entertaining people like you. Keep up the good work!!!!!

    Good job Gary!

    Thanks for following through on your commitment to educate, inform and change the wine world! WLTV has become such a big part of my day that when a new episode hasn’t been prepared I’ve decided to go back and view any old installment I may have missed (starting at the beginning of course).

    I have noticed various sirens in the background of other episodes and sure enough, there’s the WLTV salutatory siren wail about half-way through this first episode. Will I always think of Sonoma’s Verite when I hear the siren now?

    QOTD – What grape varietal best describes GV? Take into consideration how he’s “matured”!

    Great 1st show!

    Don’t know why I didn’t watch this sooner… All I have to say is: Isn’t the internet an awesome thing to provide the means to do things like this? I love the time we’re in. Keep it up.

    I have finally seen the infamous first episode. That wine sounded like it was pretty good. Did the people at Verite slip you a six pack of each to just toot the wines horns like that? Just kidding. Congrats on all the progress you guys have made

    I’ve only recently started following your vlog and I’m catching up from the beginning.

    Hubby and I have two bottles of the Verite La Joie 2000. Hopefully the ‘00 is as good as the ‘01!

    Wow – this is like watching Gary on Sedatives. At what episode does he make the transition to his current energy? I’ll have to watch them all.

    Wow it’s so weird seeing how different it was back then…the camera was worse, Gary was less energetic…though the humour is still there. I like it.

    I’m trying to watch every single episode.

    Watching this is like, popping a young wine, a little young, rough around the edges, but wow, getting to see what you are putting out now, is like enjoying something that has developed into a lively, fun, interesting and worth while investment of time. Thank you for what you do.
