-You know it's amazing because you learn so much about your family, I mean, you went 200 years back on my mother side and 200 years back on my father side and I just found out things I didn't know at all and one of the things it also tells you, you know, distant cousins that you're related to who are, you know, well-known, and, and you know I, I  found I'm related to, ah, Nixon. He did some good things.

-But...

-And ah...

-But let me interrupt you. I don't know anything about this.

-OK.

-But,but, first of all, how does he trace this back to Richard Nixon?

-Well, well, he literally, he literally do like a cheek swab.

-Also it's DNA.

-It's DNA as well as just they have genealogists who actually go back and they look, they find pieces of, of real, you know, like sensors and...

-And did they do a cheek swab on President Nixon?

-I don't know, I don't know.

-See, it's fascinating ,but is there a commercial on, on TV where a guy comes on and he says “Oh, I was skeptical and then I typed in my thing on my deal, and turns out my grandparents lived next door to the right brothers were .Who forgot to tell me that , and I'm screaming :' No, they didn't live next to their right brothers. It's a lie. It's a scam'". How about, how about? But you're related to Richard Nixon in the sense that all humans are related. Is that pretty much what it is ?

-No, no apparently we're just in cousins.

-Just in cousins.

-As well as Jimmy Carder, Marilyn Monroe, I can see they are resemble.

-Yeah.

-And Kevin Bacon.

-You're related to your husband. How are you related to your husband.

-Tenth cousin once has removed. It was a little upsetting. I'm not gonna lie.

-Yeah, I'm very skeptical at this. I just, I mean, I don't know. I bet I would go in there and I bet I'm related to those same people.

-But it was on PBS. You have to believe PBS.
