Forget Ariel. Forget Splash. Forget the Starbucks logo. This week, Chris and Ed dive into the terrifying pre-Disney history of mermaids, from Greek sirens and Japanese ningyo to Mami Wata, Sedna, Christopher Columbus’s “sightings,” P.T. Barnum’s infamous Feejee Mermaid, and the fake Animal Planet documentary that got so convincing the U.S. government had to officially say: no, mermaids are not real.
