How many ancestors do you have, and are they just someone to blame? Broc walks in sure they are: a bad temper from his great-grandfather, no savings thanks to some great-aunt from 1890. Veil answers that he may have inherited the temper, but what he does with it today is still on him.
This is Part 2 of our Family series, How Many Ancestors Do You Have?, picking up from episode 35. Veil and Broc slow down to the first eight generations, 128 people, and walk back row by row: parents between fear and hope, grandparents who learned to survive, great-grandparents caught between old and new, and the revolutions further back. Along the way: what epigenetics actually says, a line from a Serbian elder, and three steps to heal the future.
