I am thankful to share some moments with this person I call friend!

We can't forget about G's fashion passion for Happy Socks that he has showcased in his adventures and GTGs.... that have become a feature of his many signature poses.

I'm loving these interviews BUT a pic should be mandatory! So we can match the face to the name. Gerardo though, I have met.

Great interview Eliot! Thanks for participation, G!

Love the Red Adair advert. Grew up hearing stories about him from my dad.

Thanks for the great interview. G is a class act and it was fun to get to know more about him though this process. Looking forward to spending time with him later this week in Vegas!
