Episode notes

Mermaid legends and mermaid sightings have followed humans across oceans, cultures, and centuries, from ancient water spirits to sailors’ reports and modern shoreline encounters. In this episode, we look at why these stories keep surfacing, what patterns show up again and again, and why the ocean still leaves room for questions.
