    Q’sOTD: 68 but living and looking like 50. I will assume GV is a given for the shadow question so I will skip him and go to number 2. I would shadow Gordon Ramsey to see what a successful chef does in the kitchen and a successful restauranteur does to build his business. The next president will be Hillary.

    Really fun show, love Pipes as the cohost and seeing the patriarch of the Vaynerchuk clan is a great treat as well. It really reaffirms WLTV is the Thunder show.

    Great episode, even if the wines were sub par.
    QOTD 1: 59, though he could be younger. Being Gary’s dad could age anyone!
    QOTD 2: Shadow United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon to get a glimpse of the big picture.
    QOTD 3: Next Prez will be (a) somebody with skin thick enough to stand up to all the dirt that will be flung in the coming months, and (b) someone with a higher IQ than the current Prez. Those 2 criteria probably leave Obama, McCain, Clinton, and Sasha’s pigeons in the running.

    Whoa! That one went all over the place. Interesting wines! And one more reason Sasha should take over as wltv host 🙂

    QOTD1: 56

    QOTD3: Ralph Nader is going to pull out a last minute victory

    I recall Jenn from the t-shirt challenge…Awesome!

    QOTD: (Gary) Sasha is 62
    QOTD: (Jenn) I’d love to shadow a CIA undercover agent to see how he works because it would be fun to see how he conceals his identity.
    QOTD: (Sasha) McCain

  • JonE

    QOTD1: 57, and then I thought…hmm….tough questions. Good jeans brother.

    QOTD2: Alain Ducasse

    QOTD3: I’m fearful to guess. And yet very excited for the change. I think it will be a hell of a duel between the current big three. With a big maybe to Barack Obama.

  • Love your dad, Gary! Sounds like he’s got a lot of character, even if he’s quieter than Junior. 🙂

    I’m going to have to guess Sasha is 53. Still quite young!

  • Happyuke

    WOOHOO a BC Wine,thanks gary.
    Great show, Dad is about 61.
    I am Canadian,but McCain

  • John Farrin

    Seriously, these shows keep getting better and better! You have brought unorganized chaos to an art form :)Pipes may want to think about working in TV. She comes accross very well.

    QOTD 1:52
    QOTD 2: Probably Obama
    QOTD 3: I’m 61 and shadowing GV for a day would be a death sentence so we can’t go there. I have always thought that Andy Rooney has THE cake job in America. 3 minutes a week that may take him all of 4 hours to prepare for. Think about it. Plus, shadowing him for a day would surely include a nap or two 🙂

    Good show, Pipes seems nice.

    QOTD1: You’re implying that he’s older than he looks, so I’ll say 68, even though he looks much younger than that.

    QOTD2: How about a park ranger, deep in Yellowstone or Yosemite.

    QOTD3: I’ll guess McCain, but a lot can happen between now and Nov.

    GV,
    What a great show! Top 5 that I’ve seen. I was laughing/smiling the whole time. Pipes is a beautiful, intelligent, and chill woman. I would love spending an evening having wine and conversation with her if she ever passes through central-Illinois. (??) Anyway, an instant classic, even with less than spectacular wine offerings.

    qotd GV: 73
    qotd Pipes: park ranger in Glacier National Park (or some other beautiful preserve)- a great excuse to go backpacking
    qotd SV: Obama

    Holy shit! That was the best ep of WLTV ever … Pipes, Sasha,
    Mott … It’s Wine Party TV :~}

    The massive number of Q’soTD:

    Winebrow: Yes, I frequently get a wine unibrow … And sometimes a bit
    of wine on the tip of my nose because I get so excited about
    sniffy-sniffing.

    Sasha’s age: Hrmmm, this is a tricky one, so I’ll dodge it by saying I
    think he *looks* in his early 50s.

    Shadow at work: Well, since this is a hypothetical anyhow, I’ll say my
    grandfather (who is dead now). Why: He was a scientist (a botanist),
    and I’ve long dreamt of seeing him in action doing research studying
    potatoes. Cheesy answer, but honest.

    U.S. president: (By the way, GV, it’s not really a political question
    like “Whom do you *want* to win the U.S. presidency?” would
    be … Just a hypothetical-bet question.) I’m not a gambling person,
    but I’d lay odds that the Bush + Clinton dynasty will continue. -but-
    At least W will be out.

    QOTD1: 55
    QOTD2a: Probably a head writer for a late night talk/comedy show.
    QOTD2b: Cause it’s related to my field and I was a fan of such shows in college, etc.
    QOTD3: McCain

    You didn’t get into too many details on the Osoyoos Larose but it is a joint venture with Ch. Giruad Larose. I tasted the 2004 recently and had similar
    tasting notes so they are consistent.
