I?d love to know what Portuguese wine your dad was raving about. I love Portuguese reds with the Touriga Nacional grape ? it gives unique and complex aromas of herbs and flowers.

QOTD: The economy would recover faster if it wasn’t for Hoover and FDR (oops, make that Bush and Obama) messing with it.

Gary-your dad MUST be a semi regular or give him a spin off! We want more Sasha!

Another classic thanks to Sasha!
I happen to agree with him on the Don Alfonso. Who says you can’t drink cab sauv in the summer? Or drink white wines all winter, for that matter? So it’s light and basic. For $5.49?! Perfect for a get together where your focus is on the people with you, not the wine. I so loved that whole argument! 😀

I also wanted to give him a hug when he talked about his Mom. We’re moving my Mom in with us at the end of this month- it’s very hard to see them becoming more frail…

QOTD: I’m hoping in the next 3-5 years, but it’ll take accepting some uncomfortable changes and a lot less whining and complaining to get there!

This is my FAVORITE episode of Wine Library TV in a LONG time! I LOL’ed more times in this episode than maybe ever before! Sasha is a terrific guest and I wish you’d have him on more often!

My suggestion of a Question of the Day: Would anyone mind if The Thunder Show WAS edited?

What a great show one of the best I have ever watched on wltv..Your pop is the man you have to have him on your show more often. Its a wonderful thing to see the great relationship you have with your dad. Happy passover to you and your family, keep bringing the thunder gary you got me hooked…

Qotd: I will always support our president it would be un-american not to do so

We love seeing your Dad, Gary and really love how much you love him. You should have him join you on a regular basis

Great show. Nothing beats family, as you know and preach so often. It is a privilage for the Vaynernation to witness the love you have and share with your family. I hope everyone pays close attention. Life is precious. I am 37 and I lost my mother four years ago to cancer. She was only in her 50’s. You just never know. God bless GV.

I must say this was the BEST episode EVER! Sasha Vaynerchuk rocked the house! I think he’s right, his blog would have higher ratings. Funniest show to date.

QOTD: Politics is just… depressing for me….in my region (latin america)… were every new goverment (in almost 90% of the countries)promises to do something but end up leaving office filthy rich and exonerated from all crimes they have committed. Somtimes I think people in the US dont see how their political system (although constrained to certain flaws) is not affected by these nepotistic and self serving politics that plauge developing countries.

We had a pretty good Kosher For Passover Spanish Rioja. We also had a not so good Israeli Cabernet Sauvignon-Merlot blend.

Without question the best show I have seen. Bring you Dad back weekly. I agree him him on supported the elected president.

Gary, top two episodes are with your dad! Once i saw his face i knew it was going to be good, and i love the politics because you can tell he loves his freedom. He came to America for a reason and he feels obligated to state his philosophy. He loves his country and is deeply concerned about this CRISIS!! Its not a bad thing…

You two remind me of my pops and I.

Bring him back haha

Are you kidding me…? AWESOME SHOW!!!

Too bad he wasn’t born in this country… with his charisma, he could run for Prez, no problem…

QOTD: We need to SPEND our way out… PEEPS, buy MORE WINE!!!

Your dad is a trip. Have a happy holiday.
Two quick points. First, I am pretty adventurous when it comes to food but I cannot stand gefilte fish. Granted, I’ve never tried homemade but the stuff in the food I can’t even look at much less eat.

The other funny point was, the fact that I sneezed at almost the exact time Mott sneezed. You said “Bless you” and I took a double take. Very strange.

QOTD: The recovery will begin as soon as the media stops telling us how bad things are every ten minutes.

This was an awesome episode!!! Loved it from the minute it started to its last second – your dad has to be a regular on this show, it was fantastic!

Leave it to your Dad to break it down for you, G:

You: “What is Gefilte fish? What’s in this?”

Your Pops: “It’s fish, and it’s Gefilte.”

Hilarious.

As to Sasha’s reference to the gender of the baby… Gary was FREAKED that he might give it up. Classic!

Word!

Wow, Gary! A remarkable show! The banter between you and Sasha was endearing, simply fun to watch! Thank you! A blessed Passover…

He should be on every show! QOTD: I have no idea… good luck everyone, keep your chin up!

I love families! Now that was funny. Great show. Its a classic.

One of the best. Love your dad. You have a great family. I am jealous

Keep bringing the thunder

Finally, someone who will stand up to Gary! I loved it! And it goes to show how one’s trash is another’s treasure.

QOTD: Hopefully by the end of the year. I’m already starting to see things on the planning board with the stimulus money.

You have a very cool dad! The kind of dude to just have fun and BS with but also a very wise guy to learn from.

QOTD: Times are worst than they have been but think the media is making it seem worst sometimes with all the doom and gloom headlines. It’s a recession, America and the world made it through a depression in the past then the biggest war the world had ever seen happen. They called those people The Greatest Generation. Let’s suck it up a little and quite being babys!

Too long? I Strongly disagree.
Holy cow, if you have your dad on the show more often you two are going to kill each other on live tv. Still a fantastic and enjoyable episode. Love your dad.

I’m Jewish and we watched this episode during Passover drinking wine I bought from Wine Library.

PS About 18 minutes in I swear I saw an edit cut.

QOTD: The economic crisis will end when we as nations learn how to compromise
