Episode 113: Roger Gives Away Money

 

It seems Roger has wanted to be a philanthropist since he was in school and found out what the word means. And the best part was that he got to give away somebody's else's money. It happened during his days at Warners when the company was flush with cash from its Atari video game division and eager to do good. If you know what happened to Atari then you know that the money didn't last long. But Roger managed to help out the likes of the Kennedy Center and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. But it wasn't all about money - there were fancy parties filled with celebrities and artists and plenty of glamour to go around.
