This week, Chelsea teams up with 23andMe for a very spit-ful episode.  Chelsea and Catherine discover their real lineage, who’s most likely to get gout, and are shocked at how much their reports can tell them about themselves.  Then: A listener with two moms discovers a number of new siblings - that reaches into double-digits.  A cousin wonders if she should spill the beans about a secret sister before a big wedding.  And an adoptee learns that it’s important to understand your genes before you make out with strangers at a party.
