Gary Vaynerchuk: Hello everybody and welcome to Wine Library TV, I am your host Gary Vaynerchuk and these are my friends, Is the Thunder Show, a.k.a the internets most passionate wine program. And we have a very special show today. But first a big thanks, you to me, no, just kidding. Big thank you to the New York Jets who are able to defeat the Giants and the Eagles since I saw you last which is always a tremendous feeling for me, modest, very sad. And I want to give a huge – I am sorry, I am really upset about the OC or the Euro thing. I mean, nobody who has injuries that was top below, I am not happy about that – but for a ball coming up, Labor Day weekend coming up.
And we have two guests today. A very interesting show, we will not be squiring wine on today’s show because it is a conflict of interest. What we have today are three wines that I actually have my hands-in in making. Privately, it was for the store. A little fun thing. Mark, we are going to need you to zoom in because that is what you do best or you link at best. What would you say?
Mark: I am just a master of all trades.
Gary Vaynerchuk: Wow! The master, we got a political today by the way too. Well, zoom in right there. Do you see what I am pointing too? This is the Wine Library Tribute Series. I am really excited about this and what I did was these two gentlemen to the left and to the right of me are really people that are most closest to me in the world outside of my direct inner family. Bobby is my family member and Brandon as a best friend is my family member as well. But they are the backbone structure of Wine Library, the retail company. And without them, to be honest with you and of course many other people, there is no Wine Library TV because I would not have the time to be able to execute the Thunder Show the way I like to do it. So men, why do not you introduce yourselves to the Vayniacs out there? Why so not you go first Bobby?
Bobby: Bobby Shifrin. [Laughs] Do not call me Borris.
Gary Vaynerchuk: [Laughs] That is right. That is your name though, Borris. [Laughs]
Bobby: No—
Gary Vaynerchuk: But really like – by the way, nobody knows my real name. It is a little fun fact.
Bobby: Well, that is fine.
Gary Vaynerchuk: I know.
Bobby: It is actually cute.
Gary Vaynerchuk: It is cute. Do not say it. We will save it because it is going to be huge.
Bobby: I know what it is. Gentleman, I am your Wine Library. I am in here for a very long time. Gary will tell you all about it.
Gary Vaynerchuk: No, no, you will.
Bobby: Well, what do I say?
Gary Vaynerchuk: Tell them a little more. They know Sash. They know the mix.
Bobby: Sash is my first cousin. Gary is my cousin.
Gary Vaynerchuk: First Cousin once removed—
Bobby: Once removed or something.
Gary Vaynerchuk: By the way, two minutes ago, I thought I was Bobby’s second cousin. First of all, can some of the Vayniacs help us, Bobby and my dad are first cousins so what are we? Not second cousins, Bobby thinks we are first cousins.
Bobby: Once removed.
Gary Vaynerchuk: Once removed but—
Bobby: It does not really matter anyway.
Gary Vaynerchuk: We are very close.
Bobby: We are family. It is fine. I have been working for Wine Library for 21 years, going 22. Now, a lot of those years were crap. Now, it is going to work.
Gary Vaynerchuk: [Laughs] here we go. All right?
Bobby: No, it has been fun. It has all been good. And what else?
Gary Vaynerchuk: Tell them what you like.
Bobby: What do you mean? What is this? Am I looking for a date? I do not know?
Gary Vaynerchuk: You might get some.
Bobby: I am single.
Gary Vaynerchuk: That is huge [Laughs]. Lincoln Bobby is his email address. I am not even kidding. [Laughs]
Bobby: No, no. [Laughs]
Gary Vaynerchuk: All right, move over here.
Brandon: [Laughs] Some of you may already know me. I am Brandon, I know Gary talks about baseball cards a lot, and I was very much a part of that. That is how I met Gary.
Gary Vaynerchuk: Tell them Bran!
Brandon: You know, my first day of high school—
Gary Vaynerchuk: [Laughs] this is a good stuff
