    I am a waiter at a 5 star restaurant in Hawaii. I talk with a lot of people about wine. I get to sell a lot of wine. My favorite part of talking juice is mentioning your show. It’s surprising how interested people are in seeing your show. I mean I know I love to watch, it’s just surprising how many others are aching to have someone teach them things about wine. I never realized how many wine drinkers there are out there searching for a little guidance. Incuding myself. Thanks again for reminding me to trust my pal, and thanks again for keeping the thunder alive. I’ll keep telling anyone who will listen, and even some who won’t.

    Alrighty, this is my third submission in spreading the thunder because the time was extended. I live a very secluded life, and I was mentally pouring over how I can spread the thunder more. So I decided to do something simple, yet meaningful. I gave Wine Library TV a THUMBS UP on my stumbleupon.com Firefox plug in. Now people with similar interests will surely see that I approve of this beautiful internet wine movement.

    Every little bit counts.

    Cheers!

    We feature WLTV Episode #346 right on our front page, each and every day since it first aired. With over *FIFTY-FIVE-THOUSAND views*, Episode was the single most episode that *we* could find. We call that some serious Thunder Spreading Luvin’ if you ask us. WineLibrary also features in our marketing materials and throughout our website, making The Wine Spies the #1 Gary Vaynerchuk shrine. We love you, Gary! Deep respect from Agent Red and the entire Covert Mission crew.

    Gary;
    I am the sommelier at The Five Fishermen in Halifax,Nova Scotia, CANADA!!!!!
    We are a casual fine dining restaurant with SPECTACULAR cuisine, wines from
    “A to Z ” and a staff “FAMILY” that you would want to change your last name for!!!!!

    You nailed it; as I have only tuned in to you since the Globe And Mail
    issue. Every day I tell our people about your Show. The other day as I was walking through the kitchen, I overheard one staffer ask another if he had watched the THUNDER show last night, and I said to myself “Y E S ” !!!!!!!!

    In Nova Scotia, the current Sommelier Students ate studying France and to be
    specific Bordeaux and Burgundy–as though YOUR episodes 410 & 411 are not right on “Q” !!

    I think universally, “tasters” are inhibited / struggle to come up with
    descriptor words, and I tell them ” WATCH THE THUNDER SHOW”!!!!

    You are what the wine world needs right now—don’t change a thing!!!

    Cheers!!!
    Avery.

    To spread the Thunder I have been telling my mother, her fiance, and their friends about the show. They are huge wine drinkers. My mothers fiance holds the same beliefs as GV about wine, so he especially liked finding a kindred spirit.

    Going to keep telling the people and spreading the Thunder!

    I’ve just been telling all my friends and sending them links. Not a lot, I know, but I’m trying to do my part!

    Not only have I told everyone and anyone who has an interest in wine, but I have also hosted tastings based on episodes. I watch each episode and when I find one I’m really interested in, I send out an invite to all my friends to join me and Gary to for a tasting! We watch the show and taste it ourselves and see the comparisons.

    Gary, you know I’ve done my part since I’ve been with you since the beginning. While I haven’t done anything spectacular recently, that’s because I’ve already spread the thunder. 1) I’ve e-mailed everyone I know who likes wine and got most of them hooked on the Thunder Show 2) I where my Schwag to wine events quite often and when someone asks about the Schwag, I extol the virtues of WLTV. 4) I have indoctrinated my softball league buddies (who are usually beer drinkers but they’re hooked as well on WLTV) 5) and, finally, I have posted links to my favorite episodes on the internal electronic bulletin board at NASA where I work. Oh, did I mention Facebook? Yeah, I spread the Thunder there as well. This June when I take my trip to the Rhone with Mat Garretson, I promise to where my WLTV Schwag there as well as we tour some of the great Northern Rhone wine houses. I wonder Chave will say… :-)

    What I’ve been doing to spread THE WORD is to have wine tastings along with play-backs of the THUNDER SHOW (such as what we did for the Christmas show.)
    I’ve done this twice so far with a group of 6. It’s so great to be able to taste the wine you are tasting at the same time and hear your ideas and our ideas and how we seem to be growing. Thanks for staying around.

    I make certain to wear my winelibrarytv shirts and swag whenever I ref a soccer tournament. Lots of fans out here in AZ it would seem. Also left what I hope was an inspiring comment at Itunes. Shared a lovely bottle of wine with friends at the base of the Thunder Mountains here in the foothills of the Huachucas, Sierra Vista, AZ.

    I have just blogged about WLTV as my site of the week, I have the widgets on my blog. I wear the wristband at my local tasting. It’s like breathing…the thunder just spreads itself! Great show, Gary!!

    Gave a talk on a new hip replacement, included a picture of my kids with wristbands, and answered some questions regarding the picture.

    I have been telling everyone I know about the show. I have also been telling strangers at wine tastings about the show.

    Theres nothing I love more than popping a good bottle of vino and letting my creativity flow. To show my support on a more personal level, I linked Wine Library within my own illustration blog.

    I am Spreading the Thunder, With a lot of YOU, and a lot of ME. I am changing the wine world.

    I host a video podcast about music production and today I did a special episode dedicated to Wine Library TV. You can subscribe with iTunes by searching for Tropical Music in the podcast section or watch it at http://www.tropicalmusic.tv

    Always spreading the thunder among my friends, changing the wine world, one new Vayniak at a time.

    I love WineLibrary TV and to spread the word I have been taking a bottle of wine from recent episodes to every party I go to. Then when the CKC crews show up I start talking about the show. I’ve talked to A few people who have since become regular viewers.

    Andy Hanson

    I’ve been telling friends, family, co-workers, cats, dogs, pigs… you name it about your show! This is the most entertaining way to learn about wine and I tell them that even if they don’t care at all about wine they should at least check out the episode where you train your pallate. Thanks for all you do Gary.

    Can anybody top this? I will go to the Arecibo Radiotelescope in Puerto Rico and have them send a message to another galaxy inviting them to watch Winelibrary.com. If the the ETs intercept the message we may attain universal peace through the good “vino” and Winelibrary.com
