Gil shares stories from growing up in Chicago, becoming a playground basketball legend, and even playing against future NBA Hall of Famer Kevin Garnett. The conversation also dives into how Gil became a barber, athlete haircuts, hilarious barber chair stories, entrepreneurship, local business, and what the future holds for both of them moving forward.
