Bill Gates Chats with Ellen for the First Time

Bill gates interview podscast bill gates chat with Ellen for the first timeWith some hints from the audience, Gates was able to adjust his responses and come up on the right side of a few other products. Eventually he guessed three out of five correctly and sent the audience home with a chance to return to the show for one of DeGeneres’s Twelve Days of Giveaways in December.
