Welcome or welcome back to Wicked, Weird, and Grim, your number one podcast for a trip through the history of the odd, haunting, and mystifying.
On today's episode we dive deep to talk about a particular obsession of ours....mermaids. We're so obsessed with these creatures as grown women that we've had to split this podcast into two parts due to how much we yapped.

These fishy, aquatic entities bewitch and bemuse us, and we can't wait to dive deep into discussing them with you all.
