    More importantly, how’s your home life? I mean c’mon, surely there’s something better to be doing at 3am than satisfying your fan base… What about the fan that awaits you in bed… Does she cry herself to sleep every night ;-)

    QOD, found you on my own… But happy to say I’ve recommended you on a number of occasions to those I know and to those I don’t.

    So, Gary…when you’re sitting at your computer in the middle of the night answering all of those emails…what are you wearing?! ; ) Vaynerbabes want to know!!

    Waving. Always like to learn of new cabs. I really appreciate your statement at the opening. I try to tell my friends to chill out. Some of them take wine way too seriously.

    Hi Gary,

    Came across this site on Wine Lovers’ Page, where your mug has been making appearances of late. Very much a fan of what you’re doing here.

    Loved your advice about people needing to trust themselves instead of the experts. Have you read Wine Style, by Mary Ewing-Mulligan and Ed McCarthy? It’s all about helping people find what they like in terms of wine styles and tastes. A great line on the back cover says it all: “Who knows more about great wine than you? No one–when it comes to what wines will actually be ‘great’ to your taste. Wine labels and recommendations can help you make choices, but ultimately you are the best judge of the right wines for you.”

    Very readable, which shouldn’t be surprising as they authored the Wine for Dummies books.

    Enjoy the weekend.

    -Dan

    I’m a local. Found WLTV through the local 2005 Bordeaux Futures flyer. YOU GUYS NEED TO SEND MORE FLYERS!

    I don’t recall when you replied to my last post, but it had to be past my bedtime. But then again, I’m old. BTW – my name _is_ Eric and when you say Australian wine, I _do_ think Shiraz. Are you psychic?

    Peace

    Like some of the others, I was getting the WL e-mails and finally clicked on the TV link one day. Been watching ever since.

    QOD: I discovered WLTV about a week ago after searching for “wine” on youtube. Looks like I might be the only one to find it this way…

    Anyway–first time poster, love the show. I’m addicted!

    You turned me on to WLTV and since I’ve been telling friends that if they want to know a whole lot more about wine they must visit the Vayniac Nation!

    Hey Gary,

    Nobody referred me to WLTV. I think I found it doing a Google search or something. Way back around episode 30 something…

    Keep it up!

    Hey Gary,

    I just found out about WLTV through Woot. Only took me one or two episodes to get hooked. Now I’m watching the archives. Great site!

    Many e-mails after 2a! You the man, Gary. I found WLTV just by reading around about wine. First Grape Radio, then I found WLTV. Love it.

    Hoping to see you in the ATL. Peace.

    Gary,

    I got hooked on WLTV in July. I search on “wine” in Google video and stumbled onto your vlog! The rest is history. I’m spreading the word that your show is Must-See “Online TV.” Keep up the great work. jp

    I first came across Wine Library from wine-searcher.com, you guys had a great price on a wine i was looking for, and i joined the email list. I never bothered with wltv in the emails until i saw Gary with the Hulk Hogan mask on. I had to click the link to see what this was about, and i’ve been a fan ever since. I really like how Gary takes some of the snobbery out of wine tasting/collecting and has a great down to earth approach. Now im hooked, and seem to be making frequent donations to wine library.
