Episode Details

Reggae legend Roger Steffens is making a final, urgent offer to sell his sprawling 50-year archive—spanning seven rooms, Bob Marley memorabilia, rare interviews, and priceless artifacts—to Jamaican interests at a steep discount, insisting it stay intact and publicly accessible. After years of stalled talks with businessman Josef Bogdanovich, who once claimed a deal was sealed, Steffens now gives Jamaica one last chance before the collection could vanish overseas. A true guardian of reggae history, Steffens first fell for the music in 1973 and has since curated a treasure trove visited by icons like Stevie Wonder and Keith Richards. This is a pivotal moment to preserve a cornerstone of Jamaican culture—before it’s lost to private hands or foreign shores.
