In this episode we follow Aurthur Sackler in his quest to earn class through the purchase of art and museum exhibits. Spoiler alert it doesn't work that well and he leaves a couple failed marriages and disappointed children in his wake.
We also start talking about the second generation taking power inside the family company and how they found new and shadier ways to make money off. We finish with the development of Oxycontin and the looming tragedy to come. Enjoy!
