Who was Henrietta Lacks? Are DNA tests the new astrology? What’s really happening with all the data genealogy companies are gathering? And why are they so popular? A lot of debunked “science” from the 1800s about our faces and our families is being treated as though this time it could be right, rather than racist, because “the tech is better.” We discuss the facial recognition ‘gaydar’ study aka 21st century physiognomy, forensic genetics, and the scammers claiming your genes can predict income.
