Creature Detective

Interview with a Mermaid


Listen Later


What do sardines, Dolly Parton, and a dolphin named Juniper have to do with one of the world’s biggest unsolved mysteries?

In this splashy episode of The Creature Detective, junior Keeper Darcy McAllister sails straight into the heart of the Bermuda Triangle to interview Lurlene, a witty and whip-smart mermaid from the Southern Aquatic Council. But things don’t go swimmingly at first: Darcy accidentally breaks protocol, offends Lurlene’s fins and figure, and nearly blows the entire interview—until a can of sardines and a dose of humility save the day.

What follows is a rare insight into mermaid society: their clan structure, hunting traditions, communication with dolphins, and their ancient talent for song-based direction magic—the kind that may just explain the legend of the Bermuda Triangle…

🧜‍♀️ A glamorous, sardine-loving mermaid

🎤 A misunderstanding over “podcasts”
