Let it be known today that episode 223 has been the most gratuitously gluttonous and self gratifying episode Gary has ever filmed.

The guitars have been running at about 9 or 10 as of late, but most certainly today the knob was kicked up to eleven.

Sure beats writing a paper like I am right now… We won’t tell your wife (or is it your sister?) that you ate enough cheese today for the entire month of April (this will be the only time I tease you about this I promise).

Definitley an entertaining episode.

Garret

when are you going to be at the store on Sat GV?! t-shirts!!!

Did I hear an implied insult to the southern US? Do I need to come up there and kick some a$$? We marry our sibilings because they look a hell of lot better than those Jousey girlzzz.

On followup, Gary has today demonstrated an in-the-flesh adult example of Charlie Bucket inheriting Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory.

Epoisse is banned from public transport in France because of the smell.

Gary, lay off the coffee before you tape the show, bro!

Another amazing episode, naturally. I don’t see myself running out to buy $250 bottles of Bordeaux. I already have tons of expensive wine that I can’t find the occasion to drink.

Sadly, I’m also not a big cheese guy. I like my stuff relatively mild (my stink quotient ends with swiss, and don’t even get me started with blue cheese! Can’t get it past my nose!)

Funny story, The Boss bought a few ounces of this truly rank cheese at Ledson Winery’s gourmet shop during the recent Barrel Tasting weekend (St. Paddy’s Day weekend). It was some locally made guerrilla cheese that reminded me of something seriously unwashed and unclean. So, she waits like two more weeks, then she ate it. I swear to you I couldn’t be in the same room with her for something like two days. THAT’s how much I can’t stand nasty cheese.

I can get behind the goat cheese, and with the imminent arrival of two goats to our farm, The Boss is looking to get cracking on starting a micro goat dairy. Sick! I’ll keep you posted.

QOD: Best bargain. Hmm, I don’t have that killer instinct that you do with flea markets and garage sales. Generally speaking, I am the poor schmuck SELLING the stuff that you turn around on eBay for a fortune. Poor me. Anyhow, I’d have to say that buying a sweet Coteaux du Languedoc for $11 that tastes better than some of the $50 bottles I leave laying down in hopes that they will suck less in another 5 years. Bittersweet, but a good deal is a good deal.

That’s what I’m talking about, a sick Bordeaux from the 2005 vintage, uh very niiiiice (Borat). When are we going to see more footage of your Bordeaux trip? I’m very anxious.

G,
Nice Bordeaux!
QOTD: Greatest bargain would have to be Free Shipping from WLTV! 🙂

Love cheese! You’re killin’ me! I think my cholesterol went up 10 pts just watching this …

QOTD: Didn’t we do this one a couple of times already?!? 1998 Le Vieux Donjon CdP – 1 case @ $19.99/bottle.

Great show today Gary. Love the fact you broke up the wine with several cheeses. Keep up the great work.

Great Episode Gary! I really mean that. You brought the thunder today and were in especially good spirits. I guess that Chi-Town gig has carried over for you.

I don’t like cheeses as stinky as you, maybe do another one with moderately stinky cheese.

QOTD: I like to shop at Nordstrom for my clothes, but one day I was with my wife at Kohl’s, I found a cool dress shirt that was on sale for $8. I have worn it like 20 times.

TGIF, if I don’t go into work tomorrow will it be an acceptable excuse that Gary was on the couch so it must really be Saturday?

QOTD-Ebay!!! Many people can’t spell or don’t proof thier listings so I search for every typo I can think of before I bid. I have taken things from sellers so cheap I have felt guilty about it. I have bought 1960’s era matchbox cars that should go for hundreds for two or three bones.

Nice to see you so pumped up, Gary. It does not bother me one bit. It contageous; it pumps everybody up. You see so much tragedy on the news this days, ie Virginia Tech, similar things right here in our own backyard, that what can be more pleasing and happy than to see Gary V doing Friday on a Tuesday. THANKS for opening and tasting such an expensive (and delicious) bottle for us. QOTD: I won’t answer it because it is the second time you ask this question, but I can tell you this: every single bottle that I have bought from WL (except for maybe one) represents a bargain in my mind and heart. For one, because they are all prime quality, and for two, because of WLTV. WLTV makes WL wine come attached with love. Kudos to you, GV.

Angelus…..nice…..did u try its second wine, Carrillon d’Angelus?…..that’s more my budget!!

Best ASS-STINKY episode EVER! I may go run 20 miles tonight and then put the socks in my mouth just so I can step inside the Dodger’s ballpark of what this ep may have tasted like. Thanks, GV! QOTD: I usually get ripped off. No good bargains here.

I agree with SoCal.. free shipping brings the THUNDER!

Gary,
Great episode. I have a glass of wine and a piece of cheese every night when I get home from work. It truly is on of life’s great pleasures. And the good stuff in the wine cancels the bad stuff in the cheese, so don’t get all torked up about your cholesterol when you eat some cheese.

Also, you are a hell of a salesman. I am seriously considering ordering some $250/bottle wine. Never thought I’d do that.
Will have to try the cheese. Looks good.

JW

very clean epi.GV awesome energy!

QOD: Freshman tuition and the university of Kansas
1987=630 odd bones. Still the best deal in the U.S.

dude – how about we switch for awhile? i will sip Angelus (agree with you completely – in the Ausone/Cheval Blanc class) and attend the NFL draft and you can drain rectal pus which is how i spent my afternoon.

deal?

Brilliant, Glenn. Brilliant! LOL

Hey Gary,

Great episode. Trying to catch up on all of the 222 other ones is killing my studies. It is much more interesting so I can’t help myself. Cheers!

Great episode,Gary. My girls while babes referred to Provolone as “stinky cheese”, they were more the cheese-in-the-can type.

QOTD: A night in Vegas where a cab driver took us to four or five strip clubs and paid for our entrance and a drink for each of the three of us (over $100 per club) because he was getting paid to take us there. We all profitted; it was beautiful.
