    Having been born and raised in the NH seacoast area, I’ve spent a lot of time in Boston. Gotta say, Boston’s North End is supreme!

  • GV – Thanks for coming to Boston (even though I wasn’t there! Next time…). QOTD – I simply love this city, from the food to walking the streets to the opportunities. Great place.

    GV,

    A little tardy…favorite thing about Boston?…it’s kinda second-hand but I’ll go with Isaiah Thomas’ expression after ‘Bird stole the ball’…that still plays like a bible story out here.

    Heads up. My wife (Lina) and I will be – literally – celebrating our 10th wedding anniversary (and 17 together) at your 500th show at Crushpad. We chose SF because of ‘Vertigo’ and the bonus of WLTV landed in our laps.

    Can’t wait to see the show!

    Just keep going Gary.

    Cool show! I like the live action!
    I did not hear anybody say “Wesley Walker” when you rated the Syrah. I got your back man.

    QOTD – I think Boston is a very cool, historic town with a lot of interesting things to do and see. Good restaurants in the North End as well!

  • Parking at Fanueil Hall and Quincy Market, walking around for a bit, a bite to eat at Cheers there at the Market (always sit at the BAR), then the T from Kenmore to Fenway for Sox/Yanks! That’s what I love about heading up to Boston!

    Rocking show, Gary. And actually a good “studio audience”, even if it was in Boston. You really need to do more Q & A like this – it was truly awesome and you did it very well.

    QOTD: My favorite thing about Boston? Well, I’m in Beantown right now on business and I love the Back Bay area and Fenway Park (but, no, not the Red Sox). 🙂

    This one is the easiest question of the day ever for me. My girlfriend, she lives in Boston while I live in S. Delaware.

    Just starting to get caught up by watching previous episodes.

    QOTD: I really enjoy all the history that is associated with Boston. A lot of our nation’s history can be traced back to Boston.

    Fun live show Gary – this format works really well indeed. I pulled this out of the archives just to see how many times you would trash my favourite sports team, the Patriots, and I was not at all dissapointed. I think it is fair to say, when the day comes when you actually use a Patriots spit bucket, the world is about to end. 🙂

    Your episode confirmed advice I received two days ago from another brilliant professional in the wine business that Argentina reds – especially made from the classic bordeaux varietals – can be sensational for the price and are worth seeking out.

    QOTD – Due to being a resident of metro Vancouver BC, I have never been to Boston. My first visit would be a side trip to Foxboro.

    These live shows are a lot of fun. I love the energy you bring to them and I love you hating on the sports teams ( theres not a single Boston team I like, either ). QOTD: Ive never been to Boston so Im not sure. I really dont know much about the city and I have, as Ive stated in the past, a hatred for all the sports teams. Im sure Boston is filled with great people so I’ll just roll with that.

    QOTD: Woooo! Boston! Go Sox, Pats and Celts! (Sorry Bruins, don't care about you, the Wings rock my world.) Boston is great for this reason: It is America's most European city. Also Tom Brady's pretty damn hot.
