    Gary’s had way better guests imho. Not that impressed. I’ve been watching since 2007, this is the first time I’ve been disappointed.

    QOTD: No

    My husband often says, “There is no better nickname than ‘The Great One’.” Seriously.

    Steve Nash was on my son’s fantasy basketball team.

    See you in AZ some day.

    Gary-

    I’ve been lurking off and on since episode 175ish and wanted to come out of the shadows. Awesome show, I can’t believe how far the show has come, I mean did you honestly think a few years ago that you would be rubbing elbows with THE GREAT ONE, at his place? Really quite awesome. Keep up the good work,

    QOTD, who’s gonna be the next sports god on WLTV?

    while attempting to watch this EP the day in came out … while attempting to get my wife to watch with me … while listening to her berate me for being a WLTV geek … I gently reminded her that she rarely refuses the wine when it’s poured.

    Gary, you hit the big time! Great show. Nice to see Wayne is honest about his involvement with the wine, and if it?s for a good cause then all the better. He was the greatest except for that Mickey Mouse statement about the Devil?s years ago.

    Qotd: No way (Lets?s Go Mets!)

    Never heard of this guy … but he came across as a complete tool. Looked pissed too. And why don’t you use a tripod?

    Tough one… Gretz was always a (Winnipeg) Jets killer… have tried the unoaked Chard and the Meritage. As a thirtysomething Canadian boy whose team (Winnipeg Jets, obviously) was consistently smacked down by Gretz and the Oilers, it’s tough – especially now that he’s coaching the team that left Winnipeg for Phoenix.

    No, the wines are good, and at least Wayne’s honest about his knowledge of wine. Now, are we gonna get a/our team back here or what?

    HOLY GRETZKY!! What a great guest, and it’s fantastic to see him be all about signing bottles or doing some sort of promotional play with WL.

    QOTD: I don’t think so, but I hope for my Dad’s sake (Yankees fan since birth) that they finish strong.

    QOTD: Tigers, with their “yankee-esque” payroll will get it this year.

    Just as great off the ice as he was on it. Love it when you get to see the icon who was first and foremost a good person. Thanks for the look behind the curtain GV and I think the debate if finally settled, you will in fact interrupt anyone at anytime. The WLTV nation wouldn’t have it any other way. Peace.

    all you guys posting about wayne being a poser are just being ridiculous. did you watch the show?

    -his grandfather made wine.

    -his good friend (gary loves projects with friends) is a wine maker
    who recruited wayne, not the other way around.

    -he admits straight up to not being an “expert”, but rather a regular drinker.

    -he’s helping to promote a lesser known wine region.

    -and best of all, hes doing it to help support his charitable foundation.

    Many of you vayniacs are too eager to call people sellouts or inauthentic.

    maybe you should take a look at yourselves, and realize, your not getting the

    vaynerchuk message of acceptance, colaboration and friendship. Very

    disapointing, vayniacs. Perhaps, you would enjoy Sir Gary more than GV.

    P.S. It’s the friggin Great One.

    Great show! Looks like wayne likes to drink the vino more than taste it. 😉

    QOTD: NOOOOOOOOOOO! Dodgers FTW!

    Gary, when is Michael Jordan going to be on the show?? http://www.mastersommeliers.org/member=86

    Jokes on you!

    Even though I am not a huge hockey fan, I did like this episode. Wayne was a “real” person, not a wine nerd (HA!) which was refreshing.

    QOTD: No.

    WHOA! Amazing show and excellent interview, Gary. I’m glad that The Great One wouldn’t put his mane on shoddy wine. You need to have a behind the scenes video of you and Wayne talking more hockey and sports in general. Seems like a super cool dude.

    QOTD: No Way! Wang cant even get his ERA under 30 now. Go Marlins! (I live in FL, what can I say)

    Great interview!!! WG seems like a great guy and I am glad to hear that his wine is worthy of the name. Keep up the good work. We need to see some behind the scenes of you and The Great One.
