1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:01,880
Speaker 1: We all have secrets.

2
00:00:02,080 --> 00:00:06,519
Speaker 2: Oh, it's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Some secrets

3
00:00:06,519 --> 00:00:10,039
Speaker 2: are big as big as a rocket. Some secrets are

4
00:00:10,119 --> 00:00:12,360
Speaker 2: small and fit in your pocket.

5
00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:15,200
Speaker 3: Okay, so the idy was just so you could ride.

6
00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:19,520
Speaker 2: Some secrets are hidden away from your wife. Some secrets

7
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:21,440
Speaker 2: come back and ruin your life.

8
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:24,799
Speaker 3: Ah. I think that's a poem we should all memorize.

9
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:28,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, why am I talking about secrets because recently a

10
00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 2: story came out in the news about a woman from

11
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:35,320
Speaker 2: North Carolina who was searching for her biological father. Her

12
00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:38,720
Speaker 2: name's Kathy Gilcrest, and for years, the only thing she

13
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 2: really knew was that she'd been adopted back when she

14
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:43,920
Speaker 2: was an infant. Okay, but Kathy decided, after all the

15
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:47,839
Speaker 2: new advances in genealogy and ancestry tracing, she wanted to

16
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:50,519
Speaker 2: dig a little deeper. So she sent some DNA samples

17
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:54,360
Speaker 2: to all the top genealogy websites and waited for the results. Oh.

18
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,279
Speaker 3: Man, I just can't imagine the anxiety you would have

19
00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 3: for the excitement.

20
00:00:58,480 --> 00:00:58,880
Speaker 1: Yeah. No.

21
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:03,320
Speaker 2: Finally, one day she finally got a phone call, and

22
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 2: because of that call, she was interviewed on the local

23
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:07,080
Speaker 2: news about it.

24
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 1: Okay, Here's what she said. Okay, I found your father.

25
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:12,839
Speaker 1: All I'm going to do is give you his name.

26
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 3: I said, well, is it someone famous? And she said yeah,

27
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:23,240
Speaker 3: And I thought, of course, my father's a murderer.

28
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 1: Murderer.

29
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:27,960
Speaker 3: Wait what, Oh it wasn't like Ryan Gosling's love child.

30
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:33,319
Speaker 2: We know, not Elvis Presley's secret. Baby found out her

31
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:35,120
Speaker 2: father was a murderer.

32
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 1: Oh that's interesting.

33
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:39,760
Speaker 3: I mean, it's he's such a murderer that he's famous,

34
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,399
Speaker 3: like famous enough to know his name. That's usually like

35
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 3: a serial key.

36
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 1: Is it better she knows no or not? I don't know.

37
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 1: I mean you can explain why.

38
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 3: I mean, you can be happy that you were raised

39
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 3: by him. Right.

40
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 2: Well, that's what she found out. Her family secret is

41
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 2: that her dad was famous in a not.

42
00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 1: So good way.

43
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 2: In fact, he's been on the FBI Most Wanted List

44
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:06,320
Speaker 2: since nineteen ninety six, did some bad stuff and he's

45
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 2: still out there.

46
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,800
Speaker 3: Oh my god, what if she's the one that actually

47
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 3: tracks him down. Maybe damn, I knew the kid would

48
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:14,120
Speaker 3: always ruin everything for me.

49
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 2: Well, she says, he would be eighty four today, and

50
00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 2: her gut feeling is that he's alive and living over

51
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:24,239
Speaker 2: in Europe somewhere, and she believes that because she did

52
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 2: more research and found out that he'd spent some time

53
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 2: living around Italy and France.

54
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh.

55
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 2: And she said the reason that she reacted the way

56
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 2: that she did by saying, oh, of course he's a

57
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,239
Speaker 2: murder is because she was raised by people with a

58
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:38,120
Speaker 2: great sense of humor. So all you can do is

59
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 2: laugh when you find out Newsay, so.

60
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,959
Speaker 3: It's like the sarcasm. Yeah, after all these years, that's

61
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 3: of course what happens to him.

62
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 2: Smart defense, and that's a good defense on her part.

63
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:51,679
Speaker 2: But Kathy's not the only person who later in life

64
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 2: learned a shocking secret about their family. In fact, other

65
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 2: people started commenting and sharing their own stories, maybe not

66
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,840
Speaker 2: as heavy as that one, but still interesting in their

67
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 2: own way. Yeah. Like one person said, my parents used

68
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:08,919
Speaker 2: to take an annual trip to the Bahamas that they

69
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,239
Speaker 2: never took me on because it was quote their time together.

70
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 3: Oh, I feel like I already know where this is going.

71
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 1: Well that makes sense, though, I would be like, yeah, I.

72
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,519
Speaker 3: Mean yeah, there's a lot of adult resorts in the

73
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 3: Bahamas that would not be kid friendly.

74
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 2: Fast forward to my senior year in high school. When

75
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,240
Speaker 2: they left me home alone for a trip. I borrowed

76
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,799
Speaker 2: my mom's leather jacket, and while I was in her closet,

77
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:32,359
Speaker 2: I found travel brochures for my parents' trip. Turns out

78
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 2: they were on a Swinger's cruise and they'd been going

79
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:37,920
Speaker 2: on that cruise every summer.

80
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 1: Oh again, she glad that they didn't take me along.

81
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,680
Speaker 2: Another person said, after my grandpa passed away, we were

82
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 2: going through his things and at the bottom of his

83
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 2: drawer there was a framed picture of him and the

84
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 2: Pope just hanging out.

85
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 1: Not even like one of those just hanging out. It

86
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 1: was signed and said thanks for everything. What is that?

87
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, how do you get to hang out

88
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 3: with them normally?

89
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 1: To see him through those big glasmobile?

90
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 3: Yeah? Does anyone else automatically assume mafia? I don't know why.

91
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:16,960
Speaker 2: Oh, I was going back to the swingers cruise. Thanks

92
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 2: for the great time, mister Pope.

93
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 3: Yeah.

94
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 2: The next one is from a woman who said my

95
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,719
Speaker 2: grandma would never let us go up into her attic.

96
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,599
Speaker 2: She would always say it's too messy and no place

97
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 2: for kids, and even told me a really scary story

98
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:33,720
Speaker 2: to prevent me from going up there.

99
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 1: I don't messtics either. You're gonna tell me not to

100
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:37,440
Speaker 1: go up there.

101
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 3: I won't go more. What's up there, Grandma? Oh yes,

102
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 3: diurdy secrets.

103
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 1: She says.

104
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 2: Eventually I grew up. She passed away, and my mom

105
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 2: asked me to clean out her attic. I was twenty

106
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 2: five at the time and went up there reluctantly, and

107
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:56,359
Speaker 2: what I found was a disco ball, a stripper pole,

108
00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,320
Speaker 2: and a record player, along with signed photos of my

109
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,040
Speaker 2: grandpa performing at bachelorette parties.

110
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, grandpa's working.

111
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 2: I love school gramophone as soon as he goes to

112
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:18,279
Speaker 2: a bachelorette party.

113
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:19,920
Speaker 1: You can't strip too hard either.

114
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 3: If there's a record play, it's just gonna stick and

115
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 3: scratch the entire time.

116
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,600
Speaker 1: I know, Brooke, you have a family secret that you learned.

117
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 1: I do. I do.

118
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:32,560
Speaker 3: My dad did his genealogy. I didn't even know if

119
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 3: I'm allowed to share this, Okay, I'll just say that

120
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:38,159
Speaker 3: my dad was not the father, but somebody else in

121
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:41,719
Speaker 3: our family was of you know, of another person we

122
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:43,920
Speaker 3: didn't know about. But there was a person that came

123
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 3: back and said, hey, I'm a ninety nine percent match

124
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:53,760
Speaker 3: to your dad. How am I related? And through some investigations,

125
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 3: we found out that somebody else in our family had

126
00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:02,400
Speaker 3: another kid. No, it wasn't my dad, but my mom

127
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 3: was so sweet. My mom came to my dad and said,

128
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 3: if it is your secret love child, I love him

129
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 3: like my own. It's okay if you had an affair

130
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:14,800
Speaker 3: at some point in our fifteen year old.

131
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 1: But I was like, dude, I was twelve at the time.

132
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 2: It was not my kid, right, And then that secret

133
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:24,599
Speaker 2: love child went on to become the Pope. Yeah, what

134
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:26,520
Speaker 2: a happy ending for everybody.

135
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 3: Oh.

136
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 2: My text in the seven five nine two, tell us

137
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:33,600
Speaker 2: what's the weirdest family secret you ever found out later

138
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 2: in life?

139
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:36,279
Speaker 1: Your phone tab's coming up right after this
