You two are wonderful. The respect you show your Dad and the love that you both share is something many of us could use as an example.

As to the politics of the country. Hmmmm…As a 62 year old Father who is enjoying the same banter you have with his Son who is home for is predeployment leave, I struggle to be objective. This is my 24 year olds 4th visit to the “sandbox” as we call it trying to be clever and I want to believe my President will support my Son ans his Team Mates. Sadly I don’t think he will. He and his people seem more centered on providing entitlements and socializing our banking and production industries. None of this will help the economy and Sasha’s grandchild will be buried in debt the day he is born.

Always love it when Sasha makes an appearance, he knocked it out of the park. You should try and get him on a little more often.

QOTD: And away we go on a rant. For one I don’t really believe that government involvement in our everyday lives is a good thing. I know I personally work as a contractor in an agency in DC and these people take 5 people to do the work of what one motivated competent person (ie a contractor)could get done. There is no way that giving the government more power and control of financial systems will end well IMO. I believe in capitalism as it leads people who are intellegent, motivated, and hard working to benifit from the system and if the company you work for makes bad decisions it should fail. I wouldn’t get a bailout if I made horrible decisions that were doomed to fail and neither should big buisness. I hope the plans that have been put into place will work since that would only benefit us all, but as others have pointed out I feel that inflation is going to start to rise and that will be a mess. I will also agree with Sasha that there are enormous oppourtunities out there right now if you have the cash to make it happen. As warren Buffett said “Be skeptical when the market is bullish and be bullish when the market is skeptical”. And on the final point of critisizing the President I refer to Thomas Jefferson who said “a little rebellion now and then is a good thing” and that being able to voice your oppinion is what being American is all about.

I have to go with Sasha on this one, there is nothing wrong with a nice light red wine once in awhile, maybe something you can put a bit of a chill on and drink out of water glasses Godfather-style. You don’t have to have thunder in every single bottle.

Except for Beaujolais nouveau. That stuff sucks.

As for President Obama, finally we have a Chief Exec who can make it through a complete sentence. If only he hadn’t had such a godawful mess to inherit … but as far as that goes, we’ll get through it and over it. We’re Americans, it’s what we do.

Good laid-back episode.
Always love your Dad.
Best Line: Sasha: “Scuse me – you can listen to me!”

Sasha is one cool cat … LET’S GO DEVILS!!!

This is why my brother and I cant get together on video, way too much energy on screen at once. Loved the episode, just like being back in NJ.

QOTD: A bit too heavy for the thunder show, but if we keep our heads down, work hard, work together… it aint a crisis at all. PS My self and all my Army Vet buddies think we have the best prez’ in a long time. If he can bring my boys home, Ill support him till the end.

HeadLines: Sasha steals the show!!!!!, The critics gives 2 thumbs up, when Gary and Sasha are on stage they bring the house down!!!. I score this a 99+, damn near perfection!!!!

Well, almost expected an exchange of blows there.
But I might have to agree with Sasha, I’d get
happy buying a $5 wine. CKCs!

QoTD – I am all for supporting any president elected
but if something does go terribly wrong, we need to
install a giant reset button in the middle of the
States that 51% of the population must stand on to
activate.

Good show men! Pops didn’t disappoint!

Sasha, reminds me of my Father-in-law. Great fun and good guys!

Plus a Devil fan to boot. Cool!

Great episode Gary, I love it when your father is on. I’m a little disappointed by today’s wine selections, especially considering how well the Daniel Rogov kosher wines episode went.

To quote you from the comments reading part of the show:
“I’m not quite sure gomestar, I can’t put a stat on it, it’s not what I do” — Fortunately I am a statistician!! I’ll keep an eye on it as I continue to watch more old episodes and I will let you what I find.

Keep doing what you’re doing.
Daniel

hey i say do it. i would love to see you shows 30 min or a little longer is so be it. its awesome. so much passion.. thank you for everything

I rarely get the chance to watch WLTV, but I have a friend that watches everyone and he DMed me and said your dad was on. So here I sit enjoying this show. Love the Vaynerchuk family. I love that you gave pops a kiss!

Rock on big homie!!

Owen aka Ohdoctah

Love the innate schtick!! Your dad rocks!! Happy Passover!! 🙂

QOTD- Sasha, I love you man, and I really appreciate when you’re on Gary’s show. That said, I’ll respect the *office* of the presidency, but I don’t have to like the policies of the occupant of that office.

That’s all I’m going to say on a “Blog du Vin,” at least.

Definitely best to keep the politics off WLTV, it ain’t good for business 🙂 Gary I know you tried, you really did (g)

Thanks for another great show, and Happy Passover!

a classic episode
gary you have such a great rapport with your dad. it is great to see
thanks for the show!

Big ups Gary. I think a lot of people would feel very vulnerable being on video with their dad, especially someone they are in business with, but you represented well.

Your dad was great too. His “I love and support my son but I’m not crazy about him” style is awesome. It’s real in a way that we all know personally.

Sasha’s great…..why doesn’t he have his own show yet??

Wow !!!! Gary this was the funniest show, I laughed the whole time.
Your Father remains me of my Father that he is blah about everything and the discussion about the wine. Me and my father fight about the wine too,
so funny that we are not the only ones.

PS. I have no problem with the show being what ever long. Make it an hour long don’t care, I will watched all with a glass on VINO.

simply awesome show.
QOTD: who care’s how long as it takes as long as we keep it real with our families like the Vaynerchuk clan does everything else will fall in place. Your love for your family is always inspiring… that’s a lucky kid coming along soon.

Hey Gary,

I’ve been a “lurker” for a long time and I just had to comment on today’s show. I thought this was my favorite episode in a long time, you and and your Dad are an awesome team. I talked to my Dad on the phone as soon as the show was over. As you say, family is everything. Good luck with the baby!

Nic

great show aloha

Tracy

Shasha Rooocks!!!

awesome show! I really liked how he put things in perspective. GV said that the wine sucks, it is terrible, and then Shasha jumped in and said, what do you mean terrible??? would you not drink it ever??? same thing about the second wine (the argument had me in tears btw…). It is the difference of perspective between a person that has been through some very tough times, and is content with little simple things, and the difference between someone that had not been through so much hardship. No disrespect GV, I am not calling you spoiled, but I agree with Shasha on this one.

Sasha is the man! No other guest on winelibrarytv dominates like Sasha.

QOTD classic question: Sasha is still better looking than Gary.
QOTD today: One more year is my best guess with positive signs pointing for a recovery by the end of the year. The American economy has too many positives to keep it down for long. Stop freaking out people.

GV…You should get your old man on the show more often. It’s quite entertaining to see you guys go at it. QOTD…WTF??, I couldn’t understand the question. Yes, I support the President.
