Statement Of The (birth!)Day: I’ve always been into food and drink, but wine was such a massive subject i didn’t know where to start. Worked at a wine store for a few months, then stumbled across WLTV, and found i could retain a lot more information than reading a wine book, but above all it’s how WLTV makes wine an inclusive subject which appeals to me.

First off congrats on 2 years and 400+ episodes!!! Great start to the show. Love the appearance by Darth Vayner and the “mishaps” ( dumping the bag, losing the lighter ). Oh and sorry to break up the 1111 comments! …. I cant stop laughing at Darth Vayner showing up every few minutes… Hey how come you didnt pour any wine for the homies? SOTD: I enjoy wine. I am who I am, and although would like to make some changes in my life, I accept the mistakes I have made and move forward. My palate is what it is and it doesnt bother me what other people think about it. We’re all different and thats what makes us all special.

Ha, happy birthday wine library tv. I’m a new member of the crew, just making my way through the old episodes. Looking at the comments I have to point out that you did make it to 1k comments, and second fois gras kicks ass. Please don’t justify it’s production or promise to stop eating it.

Awww manâ€¦
I canâ€™t believe you said you eat fois gras!!!
PLEASE donâ€™t support that stuff!!!!!!
Itâ€™s RIDICULOUSLY evil! The animals are TORTURED!
PLEASE, man!!
Itâ€™s really not cool!
And I want a reply, Gary!
Either justify itâ€™s production or promise not to eat it anymore!
Maybe you could say it on the next show?
Itâ€™s just really important beacause Iâ€™ve built up so much respect for you over the last few weeks as Iâ€™ve been watching the show, and now I feel like Iâ€™m going to lose it all just because of this little capacity for ignorance Iâ€™ve seen you show!
Please donâ€™t just dismiss this, Gary!
Itâ€™s really important!

I’m watching ep 413 as I type. Don’t get depressed, some of us lurkers are very slow in catching up some time. This noon I was able to watch three shows in a row (almost unheard of!)

I enjoyed the Year #3 is here walking back and forth behind the episode. Made me laugh, and believe me… I need that right now!

I will do my absolute best (because I would love it!) to start a Thirsty Thursday Tasting group in my area. I have several very very special friends that I drink with, and we share lots of things. Having a set time to taste wine would be a good thing for us.

Hey, GV! Finally got to the BIG show. Life is nuts but WLTV is like an oasis away from the madness and it’s been that way since episode 3 when i decided to download the Quicktime player and check you out.

Thank You!

Congratulations on the second anniversary of your show! Nothing thrills me more than to see someone who makes their passion in life his vocation and consequently is driven to attain expertise and excellence in his field. It delights me even more that you have the right perspective on the importance and value of wine; you do not value wine for its own sake, as an end in itself, but rather as a means by which people’s lives may be enriched and enlivened. I appreciate how you treat wine not only as a source of gustatory pleasure and intellectual stimulation but also as a means of bringing people together and forging relationships. Thank you for the creative, enthusiastic, and entertaining way in which you encourage people to embrace wine and the loved ones with whom they imbibe it.
