Mermaid legends and mermaid sightings have followed humans across oceans, cultures, and centuries, from ancient water spirits to sailorsโ 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.
Weโre talking ancient Assyrian myth, sirens, Mami Wata, rusalki, ningyo, selkies, the Kiryat Yam mermaid sightings, Zimbabwe dam reports, and one eerie night-fishing story from Reddit. Basically, are mermaids real, are people misidentifying sea life, or are we all just one weird splash away from spiraling?
