Earl Cooper and Olajuwon Ajanaku, two minority business owners share their unique journey from humble beginnings to stardom and success. Earl, a PGA professional and O, the founder of East Side Golf, sit with Fred, Ryan and Channing sharing the back story on how the duo got involved in the sport of Golf, a predominantly white sport, and infiltrated the industry, changing the culture and impacting fashion along the way. Coming from a HBCU background, O used his education and business skills applying it to his passion to carve out a niche in the gold industry. Catching the attention of stars like Michael Jordan, Chris Paul, Tiger Woods, Fat Joe and many others, their style and ideas for fashion have created a buzz not just in golf but in all walks of sports and entertainment fashion.

The conversation is guided by the story of East Side Golf and its quest break into the world of sports fashion and sneaker culture but also it stories the journey of how a two young men go from humble beginnings to landing a deal with the top brand in the industry. The conversation is filled with bits of humor and wisdom as the guys open up to Fred, Channing and Ryan about the process, the obstacles and the feeling of finally "making it" after so much of the blood sweat and tears is poured into their passion.
