I got to rearrange myself. I put the camera back in the wrong place. All right. So this morning, we have a lot of stuff going on. But we have somebody waiting in the green room. So why don't we bring her over and talk to her? Hey, do you want to come over and join us? Let's see. This is the coolest thing. Let's do this. This is Mellie Alexander. And she has, she's not a wiki tree yet, but you know what? She's going to be a wiki tree. She has the cool thing. The DNA chef. Tell us exactly what that is. All right. Speak up. All right. Can you guys hear? And that's Betsy. Hi Betsy. The DNA chef is a company that I'm starting a field of expertise. I call culinary genealogy. And so pretty much it's taking the principles of food and genealogy together and helping people with their family history through family recipes and just kind of like the history of their food for their ancestors. Appalachian project. Do you hear this? Yeah. Somebody who's starting a business about our genealogy and recipes. Oh, I see Chris is on the line. Hi Chris. I actually sent him to see me. He said go. He said go to wiki tree and name check me. And so I'm so glad I did because I have these awesome people and I'm so happy. And we said come and be on the live cast and we'll talk about it. So what inspired you to do this? So I was always a foodie ever since I was little. And there's a little bit of a tiny story I can share really quick. I lived in New York City when I was little. And I'm half Jewish. So I'm obsessed with Chinese food. Chinese food? It's a New York Jewish thing. New York Jews love Chinese food. Oh no, Christmas Day. Christmas Day. Absolutely. And so I remember one time when I was living in the Bronx I said dad, I want to be Chinese. I kid you not. There was a song about it. No, that was Japanese. I was like why do you want to be Chinese? And I said well I want to eat Chinese food every day. Every day. I took a walk once a week. I have a New York City style Chinese food is my absolute favorite. It's not particularly authentic but that's what I grew up on. And you can also find that in Connecticut probably a little bit of Rhode Island, New Jersey of course and even Georgia. I was so obsessed with Chinese food that's how I wanted it. So one of the things that we've got going on and Azure is in here, Azure Robinson we're working on a wiki tree cookbook. So what is your favorite recipe that you would add as a brand new wiki tree or to the wiki tree cookbook? I would add my grandmother's recipe it's this curry shrimp dish. You have to keep in mind she's from New Brunswick, Canada. Oh You're in there. Ding, ding, ding, ding. She's like Exactly, that was the best. Here's your write this down ready? Okay, so she normally would over cook everything because it's kind of the English Scottish thing. So but the holidays she would make this curry shrimp dish rice eroni, chicken rice eroni I kid you not. She somehow figured out taking a box of chicken rice eroni a can of like mushrooms like my mushrooms. Appalachian project of doing canned food. Yeah. You know we had all these box goods and shrimp and she had some curry powder to it and my family went bananas for it. The rice is perfectly cooked the shrimp is perfectly cooked it's not too spicy. It has the perfect amount of just everything together. She's not giving us the recipe ingredients. Does this mean we have to wait for her to actually join? That's what I'm thinking. Okay, so this very yellow with cooking her up Thank you so much for stopping by. And it is the DNA chef. My question is how does the DNA work in the chef? Is it because it's in our genes? Is it because we eat so much we don't fit in our genes? The genealogy connection to food and also the fact that I'm also a chef I graduated culinary school with honors and I love genealogy so much and I wanted to come up with a really cool name and the DNA chef just like and I'm just going to run with it. Yeah well we have these thons and we always talk about the stacks we're eating to try because we stay up for 72 hours straight we work on week three. We're always talking about what our energy foods are so thank you so much and we look forward to hearing more from you in the future. Absolutely thank you guys so much. Thank you by Chris Thanks Bye I'm going to try and stand up sit up really tall so I'm taller than There we go See I'm not short No They called me short the other day when we did a live cast from the booth they said oh we didn't know Max was so short Oh no That's funny So we're going to move on real quick Betsy you're good to stay for the whole show? Yeah I can say So we're going to move really on quickly here now we're going to talk about the question of the week Let's see if Greg Yeah There we go So the question of the week this week is do you have any feuds in your family tree? Now Mindy's somewhere and you know Mindy's from Kentucky so we're assuming she does Deborah Walker's in front of us putting up a wiki tree We're live Oh really? I don't think I have anything I have a lot of things I don't think I have any flexes See everybody There's that guy that this one's a story and we need to go back and be live but you need to tell that story go to the wiki tree go to the GGG and any questions do you have any feuds in your family go online So the question of the week we've got 40 answers for the question of the week and somebody's already answered So the best answer was by Janet Gunn and the person who did it was Doyle Keith he says it is 13th great grandfather Browner Gunn what a great name for somebody that was involved in the feud between the guns and the keys for 500 years by sometime in the early 1400s to gall the chieftain of the keys abducted Helen oh there's always a Helen oh yes you know those Helen's are always bad things Helen of Braymore daughter of Lachlan Gunn on the eve of her marriage to Alexander Gunn he imprisoned her in Ackerhildt tower I'm pronouncing this stuff you're very good Ackerhildt tower where she committed suicide or they committed suicide by jumping off the top of the tower anyway it's crazy so this is the one that's been voted best I'm gonna say what I always say go through and upvote these give those some upvotes go through and upvote those case miss says that thanks to genealogy I'm learning about them now I had a great uncle who lived 90 miles from me 50 years and I never met him I'm thinking something was a miss I had an aunt and uncles who never spoke to one another my entire life that I know of I just assume I came from a typical dysfunctional family we put the fun in family dysfunctional every time I go by a meeting hall with an empty parking lot I assume there's a scheduled meeting for the functional family what's going on let's see Eric Bane says the last will and testament in 1887 of his great great grandfather he planned to leave his entire estate to his spinster daughter he writes that his sons were able to support themselves and that his daughter would not so he left my house some time ago and took with her or otherwise disposed of my household furniture of any value yikes so she took off with stuff I guess she was afraid that's right if I die I'm not leaving you anything Greg oh no and that can be our feud so there's some other good ones this one this photo Sarah's not here but we can say this is a photo this one is often a photo is worth a thousand words and this photo is one of those times my maternal grandmother Nellie Long kept a feud going with her older sister Lizzie to hear Nellie tell it it all began when Lizzie broke the head off of her doll oh my wow and Murph says that he doesn't like that no no the Phoebe and Lizzie they were only a half sister, Ma was pregnant when she married Pa you know those things happen so I'm not going to spend a lot of time going through the question Louis because it's kind of an awkward situation here but go through, read these stories this particular one had a lot of answers we got many here from Kentucky but she's not near us anywhere so we could ask her about her she claims there are none good thing but that last story reminds me my wife she had some favorite dolls but her cousins who lived just down the street some boy cousins would often grab her dolls and bury them or do stuff that's crazy boys boys will be boys nope, it didn't cause a feud they still that was a beautiful picture though I mean that was I like that so is the person looking off in the opposite direction the one who had the feud did she break the head off no so go check out the check check another week go and check out the question of the week put your answer in and we'll explore them more deeply as we do that in the next few weeks I'm going to turn this over to madam in New York right now, Betsy what

an actor uh his fame his claim to fame he's notable because he uh because of his uh work with baseball he's a baseball owner and his father was the owner of the Chicago Cubs um and he so his father

the one with the picture this is the one with the picture yeah well the picture which I just lost so I'll have to google it um uh he actually ended up owning three baseball franchises um he did take over the Cubs or not the Cubs oh did I say it wrong it's Chicago White Sox here uh here let me just quick go let me correct that error if I uh you know that is a big difference oh I know I'm stating can I use that as my excuse no I was right it is Chicago Cubs oh my goodness but that means doesn't that mean that the father and son had uh rival baseball teams yeah if he did the White Sox yeah the

love and the baseball was the closest dude there we go okay so Chicago White Sox um the Cleveland Indians and the St. Louis did they say St. Louis or St. Louis St. Louis Brands St. Louis yeah okay that's cool um so a number of innovations to the team um and I think he's talking about the White Sox here I suspect um so one of the things was he was the first one to put players names on the back of their jerseys oh my word you see that all over the place they don't do that really they don't everybody at Penn State is the same as everybody else apparently he was the first one to get someone to sing take me out to the ball game in the seventh inning stretch take me out to the ball game okay yeah uh there we go um and he also created the the White Sox exploding scoreboard and which we're
