HAHAha.. this was a great episode! I think I’ve seen that stick somewhere before…

When did I stop caring.. honestly not too long ago now! I’m 30 years old… and I think I just stopped a year or two ago.
I used to think way too much about it.. now I am enjoying life!
F everybody 🙂
(in a nice way..)

FYI, I noticed that you can vote once a day for the Top Blog 🙂

THE JETS WON 38-10!!!!
Wherever he is right now, I bet that Gary V’s head is just exploding with happiness….I mean, that score leaves NO doubt about which team had the best skillz…..

Wow, Gary, you are COOL!

Awesome episode.

Hi Gary,

Another great episode as always. Love your STICK, although I would not have been as open about pulling it out on WLTV.

Still watching everyday from Hong Kong.

Gary! Sauternes with the House?! Need I remind you, you also offered Champagne (albiet a “Grower”) as the perfect “first date” wine? I thought you break rules! I thought you lived on the edge! You’ve become predictable, man. I’m beginning to read you like a cheap novel! Work with me, man, work with me. Just kidding…you crack me up as always. Thanks for answering another one of my questions on the air! (For the record…Denise’s questions answered = 2, HLS’s questions answered = 1. I’m winning, chump.)

I love this show.

: )

Gary, Can you do these tasting theme?
* Value “Italian Big B” wines
* Compare wines from st estephe, st julien, margaux, pauliac
* Old world style wines from new world
* New world style wines from old world

test 1

Gary,
What a surprise! I had a busy weekend and didn’t get to view Friday’s WLTV episode until a little while ago. I was very pleasantly surprised to see that you tasted my request! I’m glad I got my order in early, since it sold out. I can’t wait to give it a try! Thanks again.

in a superficial way, I quit caring in college when I was around more people with similar interests, etc….

But really, do we every really quit caring what people think? That’s how we all are able to live together…..

One example of being able to think for myself inrespect to wine is how I bought wine. I used to try to get as many things off the WS top 100 that I could afford, which at the time was maybe a half dozen or so. (I bought one this year and was underwhelmed to say the least) Now I rely on my own pallate and people who I know. Its more fun to find a wine that is twice as fun for half the price that flies under the press radar.

Hey GV, how about another episode of great wines we’ve never heard of, or at least not very much about.

Excellent episode once again, GV.

QOD: Sadly, throughout my ELHI school days, I usually cared what other people thought. Annoyingly to most of my peers, I was an “honors” student and geeks weren’t exactly the most popular students around to many people. That all changed in college. It was about that time that I read a book by the brillian physicist Richard Feynman entitled, “What Do You Care What Other People Think?” (I know, ridiculously geeky reference!) A great book. It has nothing to do with science. It is about living your life to the fullest.

Speaking of High School, check page out and do a find on ‘Vaynerchuk’…

Great Episode! Loved the Camel Clutch question. I quit caring in 5th grade.

Great episode Gary –

QOD: I’d have to say around 10th grade…

Great episode Gary, been a long time since I wrote the last time but here are again.
QOD I have never really cared for what other people think of me, what they see is what they get, if they don’t like it, that is too bad.

Gary, sorry for the late response. I’ll tell you, you certainly make wine fun for the rest of us. Your episode reminded me of the words my father said to me when I told him I would like to play football for a living because it was “fun”. He said,” It’s no longer a game when you start getting paid for it”. That was followed by ” it’s a lucky man who gets paid for a job he loves to do”. All along, being a Vascular Surgeon, I thought I had the best job in the world, now I think that anything better would be absolutely Vay-Ner-Chuck!!

Gary,
Martha may be a bit too austere for you, but I do think she knows fun when it is near. And you, dude, are fun! I am a little astonished that here in California, on the Central Coast, I look to you, out in NJ, for a sober yet playful take on wine. I work in a quality winery and yet I am gleefully ‘borrowing’ from your efforts, the marketing tips and general philosophy that I think punctuates a disabling seriousness that interfers with the enjoyment of wine. Go toe to toe with Parker: there is nothing but an upside.
Broadway Joe, byb, was a childhood hero of mine.
Great work

Gary, I have attended Steven Tanzer led tasting, Michael Broadbent and Robert Parker. You’re more fun to watch and I learn just as much as listening to them. Keep it up. Glad you tasted the Pillar Box. It has been a favorite since the first time we opened it here and my friends keep asking for more and it’s cheap!!!

Gary,

Hmmm, sophomore year in college maybe. Funny, that’s also when I started to become popular. Just found your site today, love the show.

You made me laugh out loud for about 5 minutes (drove my officemates crazy!) with that stick gag.

In what grade did I stop careing?

10th Grade for sure. It was a glorious internal revolution.
Has made me a happier person.

Gary,

I thought your “Wine Is Fun” (episode 138) was, well FUN! Honestly, I saw that if I viewed a video and commented on it (LA TIMES) that I would receive a free wine tote bag; therefore, I am commenting. I may even return and view some other episodes. You accomplished your goal through your LA TIMES ad, well done! I like your approach to wine, as well as your “no rules” attitude towards pairing. People have different tastes, of course some things always mesh together, but sometimes people have their own flavors. Well done. By the way, I love German Riesling. Schmitt and Sonne make excellent Rieslings! Goes great with fish and probably many other “dishes” as well, including most seafoods! Keep up the good work. Oh, and hopefully your advertisement was true and NOT FALSE, and I will be receiving a free tote! Thanks!

QOD Yo. Im in my second year of my doctoral graduate program…. I still really care, primarily because I am personality disordered CB

This is my first time watching your show.. it’s great! I always heard about WL, so I thought I owuld check it out myself. Nice.

9th grade. Love the Pillar Box as a hedonistic fruit bomb, but I have never been able to get it under $10 (at which it is still a steal). Would probably drink a pale ale with the gingerbread house, followed by a nice red and pretend it was paired with something. If I’m eating poop, I could probably afford a Burgundy to go with it.
