    I really have no idea what the QOTD was. But that Joanne sure is cute. I could talk to her all day. Lizzy’s gonna be a little jealous after watching this show because there was certainly some chemistry going on there. Great show. The guest shows always end up being my favorites, especially when the guests are as lovely and charming as Ms. Colan. Always a sucker for the accent. Here’s to more guests on the T-show in ’08.

    Good episode, I think joanne got wasted by the end and started throwing things out. Good show though, more guests seem like a good idea.

    QOTD: Dunno, haven’t gotten that far back

    Big G has seriously brought the Thunder. Joanne is very easy on the eyes. You and her are like the Internet version of Regis and Kelly. You should call the new show The Jo & G Show! Great episode Bro!

    QOTD: Huh?

  • Deano

    Great episode i love the episodes with the guests. Do this more often Gary 🙂

    Loves me some Finca! Joanne the British dynamo was quite refreshing. As a matter of fact having a newbie occasionally on the thunder show really gives a neat perspective.

    QOTD: Yes I’m quite a fan of fish and chips.

    Yea GV very different. Lots of laughs. The Finca is a great wine. The Brit was sensational.

    GV, I have to agree with Rajiv A. Todays show was fun and light but I really didn’t get alot from it. I sign on to learn about wine. Bring on guests that will be a little more serious.

  • Isn’t it funny, just when you decide to lose the sniffy sniff (which i enjoy) you get someone on… that gets drunk just sniffing wine. Hmmm.

    She was great. Nice show.

    Great episode GV and Joanne! I like the theme here, some of these guests compliment Gary in a way that brings some regular wine folks to the table, makes us feel like we are there more.
    QOTD: I have no frickin idea…a bunch of squabling kids.

    I’m have to largely agree with Rajiv A and Glenn and KarenP … I love the idea of guests (your father, for example, was fantastic), but the “Hehe, I’m drunk after sniffing it.” approach isn’t something I enjoy; in fact it’s rather irritating. I’d much rather see people who drink wine (at least semi-)regularly and can have fun without giggling the entire time.

    Now, to disagree with Rajiv A, I don’t think it’s a European thing. Besides that there are many Europeans who don’t drink wine at all (some areas, e.g., Sweden, parts of Germany, are much more beer-centred), I know many people who are ignorant and unafraid to admit it. Finally, although I didn’t particularly enjoy what Joanne brought to WLTV, I don’t know that I’d call her inexperienced given that she spent a good deal of time growing up and drinking wine in France … perhaps out-of-practice is a better word ;~}

  • QOTD: Tea

    But seriously, that was interesting. I’m not sure it completely worked. The last half worked for me much more than the first. Joanne was a great guest, but I felt only 50% of the time (I’m sure she’s a great person 100% of the time, I mean 50% as a guest). Maybe wine-related guests work better in the format of the show? Though I’d watch a few more non-wine-related and see if it’s just me.
