Solid episode in which GV asks Mott for his opinion, and then tells him what he really meant to say. Classic.

    That was a fun little show, good to see it when the other states actually have something that may be worth consuming! Love the guerrilla journalism tears through the building.

    QOTD: Straight in my piehole!

  • That’s a classic episode. just love the true reaction an expression while tasting these tree candidates. The how-do-you-like-your-chicken-question was awesome.

  • I love the roving camera work again. I wondered where you’d disappear to on ustream.

    Woohoo Adam’s birthday shout out as well πŸ™‚

    What on earth was the stapler effect in the background?

    You should challenge Nathan to a thumb wrestling contest and tape it before he leaves πŸ™‚

    QOTD: Southern fried coating on it.

    Loved the roving camera. It’s alot of fun to see your operation, especially for those of us that won’t be goint out to the east coast for a while.

    AZ wines? Interesting. Didn’t seem to bring the thunder, and at that price point… bring it down AZ and get a following (see WA state GO MARINERS!)

    QotD: Herb and Lemon rotiessireierier (sp?) so the meat just falls off the bone of the drumstick which I slurp down like a popsicle.

    QOTD: The perfect roast chicken. A little butter on the skin to get it crispy and just salt and pepper. Yum!
    Keep up the great shows!

  • I love AZ…. go all the time. I’m gonna check out some when I go this year. I love the not so steady cam work of Mott’s. He’s got a future in Hollywood.

    Hey, I wanna be an intern. How do I do that? Can I do it from my hammock here at the shore? By the way, when are you stopping in down here? You know you have an open invitation. I’ve been in the sun since 10:00am. I saw 3 clouds all day. I don’t know what it’s like up there but I guess unless you have skylights in the building you wouldn’t know….. πŸ™

    QOTD: I love KFC. I can eat a bucket all by myself. But those fried chicken swanson dinners from 35 years ago run a close second. That taste alwasy stuck in my mind for some reason. Maybe because when I was 12 I actually had a mind.

    I’m going out on the boat in a little bit here after dinner to watch the sunset …. jus sayin!!!

    Gary, when you stuck your head in front of the camera after Mott zoomed in on the NYG calender, that was some comedy gold. You are really tearing it up with the spontaneity lately, keep it up!

    I know the guy who makes the Kokopelli wine, he makes some New Mexico wine too. Your description reminded me of some of his lower end stuff here in NM too, he does however have some high end stuff that’s pretty tasty. We really need to get a New Mexico Thunder show one of these days.

    QOTD: I absolutely love fried chicken, especially chicken and waffles…that’s the bomb. My other fave is chicken wings, I’m really excited about the upcoming football season because we have a new wing place in town….football, wings, beer or vino that’s the stuff right there buddy.

    /Go Cowboys!

    Awesome show. Thanks for the impromptu shout out!! You made my month. I hope Nathan does well when he goes back to AZ. What did he do there as an intern?

    I’ve had very few AZ wines, but the ones that I had from Page Springs and Caduceus were excellent. I had one from Tuscon that was waaaaay sugarfied, I couldn’t even stomach one glass.

    QOTD: The rotisserie chicken from the grocery store is by far my fav.
