89/100

Not my favourite guest (a little bit full of himself), but I have to hand it to him, one of the very few guests to actually say what he thinks about the wines. Maybe you need a super ego to have the confidence to say it as you see it. Kudos to him for that but the hat and the dodgy handshake at the end mean he has more minuses than pluses for my palate

  • Usually a lurker that catches the show on Podcast but Krose brought me out.

    QOTD: Vitamin Water Formula 50, just got back from a bike ride with the family.

    I really want to try that Sauternes. Is it available in most places? I live on a tiny island in Hawaii and its hard to find a lot of the wines you talk about on the show but I still love watching anyways.

  • good flow…lots of fun.

    QOTD: I’m loving the old-skool Mexican Aguas Frescas – especially Horchata. Extraordinarily complex and refreshing and perfect with /real/ tacos.

  • QOTD: (1) Definitely one of my favorite NA drinks is ginger black tea with boba. The spice is awesome! (2) I have to admit that I love Red Bull and all its fakeness. (3) How ’bout this… ayram mildy salty yogurt drink, staple of Turkey and many middle eastern countries… PERFECT play with a lamb kebab sandwich. (4) I’m a tea freak now too thanks to my Japanese friend, but I can’t get dorky about it, I just love always trying different types. I’ve had over 20 different teas lately from Japan, China, Russia, Turkey, Egypt, and all around. SO SOOTHING!

  • A non-alcoholic beverage I have been enjoying lately is On Go Energy Shot. It has electrolytes + ginseng and it comes in a small 2oz bottle so I can take it everywhere. I work for them as well. Hit me up on twitter: @ongoenergy and say hello!

  • Loved the show! Great interaction and fun going on this episode.

    QOTD: Adagio Earl Grey Bravo … Thanks to Kevin and Diggnation for introducing me to Adagio … One of my favorite Earl Greys I’ve had. I love the little extra floral thunder it brings.

  • DUDE sorry I have to chime back in!… Las aguas de Mexico SON LA MAMADA!!!… Aguas Michoacana, national chain in Mexico makes all kinds of fresh water (which in spanish is what we would call juice because when you say “jugo” or juice in spanish you’re referring only to a freshly made 100% natural and often very thick and pulpy juice puree). I LOVE horchata too and it’s easy to make! But I hope jseeds reads this because it sounds gross or at least odd but 1/2 horchata + 1/2 mango agua is the BOMB! A close mexican friend hooked me up and I’ve been loyal ever since.

    I was ready to say I was getting really sick of guests, but that was well done, lots of fun to watch. Kevin is a natural and one of your best guests so far.

    QOTD: Water from our well, New England coffee (Eye Opener Blend), Lapsang Souchong (Twinings tea bags until I get around to finding a good source of loose).

    Fantastic episode. That was the “fastest” 20 minutes I’ve seen on WLTV. You must have Kevin again in the future.

    QOTD: Tom Wahl’s root beer.(a local burger joint’s home brewed root beer. Killer.

  • What a great fun show! Anytime Kev needs a cheerleader in life, I’ll be here for him! My kind of happy people… I’ve been following him on Twitter for a while, but just haven’t tried to connect since I know he’s a big ‘mucky-muck’ in the tech world (and I so don’t know techie stuff). But, now… I just may have to send out a happy thought to him now and then… Tell him, G!

    Funny thing about having such a charismatic host and equally engaging guest… you two are by far more memorable than the wines featured! Oh, wait… Crème brûlée!

  • Cuse Wino

    Great to have a beginner wino who is not afraid
    to tell the truth. Way to go Rose. Great episode!

    QOTD- Izze Clementine Soda. Essentially just juice and bubbles. No added sugar and it rocks for those of us who occasionally want some bubbly but don’t want sugar, fake sugar, or caffeine

    Tell Kevin to try Michael & David 2006 Symphony. I would almost bet he will love it. It’s from Lodi California so it should be easy for him to find.
