You're going to love and bing
this new show he has on Netflix,
V wars.
>> Let's raise our glasses.
>> Thank you.
Now we're celebrating a couple
of things.
Your new show, your daughter,
your gorgeous wife.
You just had a birthday.
>> I did.
>> And your new wine.
Yes, thank you very, very much.
>> So let's begin with the wine.
What do we have going on here?
>> Wine is a huge passion of
mine and especially in this
world of climate change and
amazing understanding of how the
environment and soil and things
work that is in the wine space
and in the spirits space, the
salvator brothers have a bourbon
that we'll be working on a lot
tonight.
That's been not even a labor of
love but an amazing experience.
>> Let's talk about gifts.
>> Forget food, bourbon.
It gives you wild.
It gives you the extra get up
and go and then I love to settle
down with a little wine.
>> You guys are the best, thank
you.
Do we have any tips about
drinking the wine?
>> I'm going to go by the stems
and heat up the wine.
>> We're at a cocktail party.
Give us some stuff we can say.
>> You want to swirl a little
bit.
Don't choke though.
>> That's putting air, mixing
the air and the wine.
I almost died on national TV.
This is national?
>> You eat two breakfasts a day.
>> You have to have a first
breakfast and you train or you
get work done and the baby gets
up and then you have a second
breakfast or you have a first
breakfast and you get all of
your training and work done and
then you have a breakfast and
get the baby up so you can
focus.
>> What does that consist of?
Scrambled eggs?
Like a hard boiled egg?
>> Protein, usually hand full of
nuts.
My wife makes this amazing
chia coconut pudding she puts in
the fringe at night.
First thing in the morning you
don't want sugary stuff.
I'm going to be better.
>> It's a crazy thing that we do
in the United States.
But yes fat and protein and a
little bit of caffeine because
you have to do that.
>> You can put fat in your
coffee.
You can put coconut oil.
>> And mix it up.
>> It's good for you.
>> Also put a little bit and you
can also do a little cinnamon.
>> A cookbook.
>> You were apart of vampire
diaries which was this
incredibly successful show for
years.
And now V wars are we going to
see the hot vampires back?
>> Is there ever an ugly
vampire.
>> These are scary vampires.
>> No, I got you.
So not hot vampires?
>> There was an article that
came out that I said there's not
going to be any sexy vampires in
this show which is not
happening.
There's definitely some sexy
vampires.
But what I'm saying is we spent
a month on this, I think you
have it.
Creating these monsters that are scary.
If you're in the room with these
people, first of all you
probably wouldn't make it out
but you'd run for your life.
They're scary.
Our show is very grounded.
>> That is a real departure from
Damon salvator telling a joke in
his under wear with his teeth
out.
Very different.
Grounded.
Science medical based.
Hopefully, right?
.
This is based in science.
And that's kind of amazing for
us.
We're excited.
>> Was this important for you
taking on this role?
But this looks extremely
different.
>> It's not like the soap opera
of vampire diaries.
>> It's not.
It was grounded and people could
think it might be crazy this is
grounded.
This is new.
This is a new take.
This is a grounded take on
vampires.
I directed 9 but I'm excited to
see what people think about
episode ten and I'm excited to
hear what everyone thinks.
So tell me what you think.
And the story will be for
another day.
>> Thank you.
>> Happy holidays.
>> And congratulations.
>> Cheers, everyone.
>> Thank you, thank you.
