Mario Fortino Alfonso Moreno Reyes, bettter known as Cantinflas, is considered the most accomplished Mexican comedian. He was instrumental to the golden era of Mexican film and even made waves in Holllywood. But he had one secret, an obsession with mermaids. 

Cristina shares two short mermaid legends from Guerrero, Mexico and then shares the story of Cantinflas' alleged obsession with mermaids. First, Carmen reads a listener story and then they end with spooky recommendations.
