1
00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:10,240
Speaker 1: Hi, this is Christina and Mortsha just kidding at Carmen. Oh, sorry,

2
00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:15,279
this is Gomez. Actually, actually she's gun Tim Flass. I'm

3
00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:19,320
supposed to be Comez. If you're on YouTube watching it,

4
00:00:19,399 --> 00:00:21,480
and I'm for you to post pictures too, I will

5
00:00:21,519 --> 00:00:24,239
post pictures. But we are doing We're trying to do

6
00:00:24,359 --> 00:00:29,679
every episode in October in a different costume. So this episode,

7
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:31,839
I'm supposed to be Gomez. I do look more like

8
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:35,679
kantin Flas she does. Carmenis Mortitia, yes, and she's pulling

9
00:00:35,719 --> 00:00:41,640
it off me. I I'm giving country class and not comiss. Yeah,

10
00:00:41,719 --> 00:00:45,960
which is fitting because today we're talking about Gantim Flass. Actually,

11
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:49,520
so that's exciting. You haven't even said we're Spooky Tales

12
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:51,640
because I cut you off. I'm sorry. Oh whoops, I'm

13
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,560
so sorry. Spooky Tells the podcast for all things as Spooky,

14
00:00:54,799 --> 00:00:58,600
And yeah, today we're talking about kantin Flas and Mermaids.

15
00:00:58,759 --> 00:01:01,600
Someone request said it a little bit ago and we

16
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:03,679
met to do it sooner, but things just kept coming up,

17
00:01:03,719 --> 00:01:06,120
as in like things we already had recorded. Then Karma

18
00:01:06,159 --> 00:01:08,319
got sick and now she's better, and now we're recording

19
00:01:08,439 --> 00:01:11,640
very late for this week's episode. So that's why today

20
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:15,560
there's only our paranormal topic, which is again Gantin Plus

21
00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:18,959
and Mermaids and no true crime case. But before we

22
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,560
get to Kantinplas, we do have a listener story and

23
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:24,400
if you have a story that you want to send

24
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:27,400
to the podcast, you can email Espakitosa at gmail dot com.

25
00:01:27,439 --> 00:01:29,640
You can DM us on any of our socials, you

26
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:32,000
can submit it on Discord. There's a lot of ways

27
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:34,599
to get it to us. So yeah, we love receiving them,

28
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:37,439
we love reading them. Are we ready to hear this one? Yeah,

29
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:42,959
let's get into it. So this is from Isabella. Isabella says, Hi, First,

30
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:45,439
I want to say that I love y'all's podcast. I

31
00:01:45,519 --> 00:01:48,239
literally have been binge listening to it NonStop for a

32
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:50,439
while now, and I'm close to being all caught up,

33
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:52,959
probably caught up by the time we're reading this. Uh,

34
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:54,640
probably held on. Let me see you what and it

35
00:01:54,719 --> 00:01:56,760
was Actually I don't think we're that behind on emails.

36
00:01:56,799 --> 00:02:01,680
It's from August Okay, never mind. Also, I want to

37
00:02:01,719 --> 00:02:04,760
thank y'all so much for always including Puerto Rico, our

38
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:08,039
Caribbean neighbors, in your research and stories. I was born

39
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,199
and raised there. Yet I always feel like I barely

40
00:02:10,199 --> 00:02:13,199
hear any of our folk tales being told. We try,

41
00:02:13,199 --> 00:02:15,319
and we try. I have a ton of spooky story

42
00:02:15,319 --> 00:02:18,400
slash encounters, both for myself and from my family members.

43
00:02:18,479 --> 00:02:20,439
And I was really young, I mainly would only have

44
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:24,680
encounters with my ancestors, like I've met my great aunts

45
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:28,000
and uncles and my great great grandpa and things like that.

46
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:31,240
That's super cool, right, I've always been very sensitive to

47
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:33,360
things like that, But when I turned fourteen, it got

48
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:36,319
worse because then I was experiencing way more than before.

49
00:02:36,479 --> 00:02:39,280
It wasn't only family at that point, oh, Like it

50
00:02:39,439 --> 00:02:42,879
was as if the doors just flew open and anyone

51
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,039
could come through. I've had a lot of dealings with

52
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:49,919
shadow people, some poultry geists, too many encounters of semes

53
00:02:50,039 --> 00:02:53,240
the worst I know. I've seen the outline of what

54
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,159
was on top of me, and I have heard it

55
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:58,439
speak to me like chica, real terrifying, real quick. I

56
00:02:58,439 --> 00:03:01,719
could always I could literally talk for hours of everything

57
00:03:01,759 --> 00:03:05,840
I've seen. Future guests. Hey, but my wife and I

58
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,240
moved into our current house about three years ago, and

59
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,800
it's been one of the houses with most activity I've

60
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:13,400
lived at in a while. My wife recently asked me

61
00:03:13,479 --> 00:03:15,439
if I think our house is haunted because one of

62
00:03:15,439 --> 00:03:18,240
her coworkers told her about her experience staying at a

63
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,599
friend's house and how she was scratched by a ghost.

64
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:22,400
And my wife knows that I've had a lot of

65
00:03:22,439 --> 00:03:25,199
experience with this stuff. She often jokes that I made

66
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,680
her a little stitious, like Michael in the office. I

67
00:03:28,719 --> 00:03:31,719
told her no, because she has horrible anxiety, and I

68
00:03:31,759 --> 00:03:33,639
know she wouldn't be able to handle knowing some shit

69
00:03:33,719 --> 00:03:36,439
goes down in our house. That is so thoughtful. Hopefully

70
00:03:36,439 --> 00:03:38,879
she doesn't listen, though, because then she'll hear it. Ooh,

71
00:03:39,039 --> 00:03:41,360
she can never listen. I'm so sorry for us. I'm

72
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:46,479
so scenari Isabella's wife. You can't listen. My guess that

73
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:50,039
there are three or four entities minimum. One of them

74
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,080
gives me a sense of being a young girl. I

75
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:55,479
can't pinpoint exactly how old they might be, but their figures.

76
00:03:55,479 --> 00:03:59,120
Shadow typically presents itself going up to my shoulders and

77
00:03:59,159 --> 00:04:01,439
I'm five four, like it's the height of her shoulders,

78
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:04,479
not it's calling that her shoulder. It's okay, because I

79
00:04:04,479 --> 00:04:08,080
could interpret it that way. If you're not paying close attention,

80
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,080
you know, yes, I always see her wearing a light

81
00:04:11,159 --> 00:04:14,080
blue dress and has shoulder lenked hair. I've never seen

82
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:16,920
full details of her, mainly little glimpses out of the

83
00:04:16,959 --> 00:04:20,040
corner of my eye, and it always looks like how

84
00:04:20,079 --> 00:04:22,240
you would see someone who's standing in the shadows in

85
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,120
a dim room or something. So I can make out

86
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:27,360
the basics of her characteristics, but never really focus on her.

87
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,560
Like I said, she usually lurks in the background corners

88
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,600
and shadows. I will typically see her lurking by my

89
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,079
bathroom door when I'm doing my hair or makeup, and

90
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:39,079
there's a feeling of almost longing, like she wishes she

91
00:04:39,079 --> 00:04:41,279
could be doing her makeup or hair, which is why

92
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:44,079
I'm leaning towards this entity. Being a young girl, like

93
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:48,439
maybe tweens or early teens, her presence doesn't always unsettle me.

94
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,279
It's usually just like a younger sister being annoying and

95
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:54,160
watching you. But every so often the emotions around her

96
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:57,639
will feel harsher, like she's trying to intimidate. I usually

97
00:04:57,639 --> 00:04:59,600
try to ignore her when she's lurking, but in those

98
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:01,680
moments I'll speak up and say, I know it's you.

99
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,079
Stop trying to scare me. I know you're there and

100
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,000
it'll stop and go away. But that's also very little

101
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,920
sister like I mean, I wouldn't know because we only

102
00:05:10,319 --> 00:05:12,079
had each other. We didn't have a little sister. But

103
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:16,199
from everything I've seen from like you know, friends and whatever, movies,

104
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,399
another thing I've noticed, and I'm not sure if it's

105
00:05:19,439 --> 00:05:22,240
a separate entity or if it's the same feminine one

106
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:25,079
I mentioned above, But at nighttime, I will feel the

107
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,399
sensation of my cats getting into bed with us in

108
00:05:27,439 --> 00:05:29,680
the middle of the night, and I'll either reach out

109
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,319
to pet them like I normally do and they're not there,

110
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,319
or they will both already be in bed with us

111
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,720
in their usual position, and I'll feel the way to

112
00:05:38,759 --> 00:05:42,240
the best shift as if something else lays down literally

113
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:44,800
nightmare and dou scene. Yes, yeah, in those moments, I

114
00:05:44,879 --> 00:05:48,199
usually just freeze and pretend to not notice and just

115
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,519
hope it goes away. I'm not sure if this is

116
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,680
a different entity or maybe the girl just looking for comfort,

117
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,720
but yeah, scary. The other thing I know for sure

118
00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,319
we have and I really don't like acknowledging it or

119
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:03,439
talking about it is a mimic. Oh the worst, Oh

120
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,199
my god. We hate those. We hate those. Yeah, I've

121
00:06:06,199 --> 00:06:08,920
never seen it present itself in a visual way, and

122
00:06:08,959 --> 00:06:12,040
this is in no way invitation for it to do so, Universe,

123
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:18,120
please don't do it. Yeah, hey, but I'll often hear

124
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:20,839
my wife's voice calling to me from upstairs when I

125
00:06:20,959 --> 00:06:23,839
know she's not home. Or I'll hear my cats and meowing,

126
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,439
even if they're sitting right next to me. This doesn't

127
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,079
happen often, thank God, but it's happened enough for me

128
00:06:29,199 --> 00:06:31,240
to notice. Or my wife will think she heard me

129
00:06:31,319 --> 00:06:34,160
calling upstairs to her, but I've trained her well enough

130
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:35,959
to know that if you cannot see someone, do not

131
00:06:36,079 --> 00:06:38,920
respond to their voice, because that's something my grandpa droll

132
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,560
in to us as kids, especially since he lived in

133
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:45,439
the Campo. Important lessons. Lastly, and the one I hate

134
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:50,199
the most. Sorry, there's something worse than immeg worse. Well,

135
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,920
there's some presents in our bedroom's closet. Oh no, not

136
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,879
the closet. I don't always feel it, but when I do,

137
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,319
it's horrible. It feels very menacing and threatening. Since I

138
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:02,319
was a teen, I always closed all of my doors,

139
00:07:02,439 --> 00:07:05,920
covered any exposed mirrors in my room, et cetera. Because

140
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,439
of my experiences when I was young, and sometimes the

141
00:07:08,639 --> 00:07:11,319
entities following me would still open my doors or knock

142
00:07:11,319 --> 00:07:14,000
down the blankets over my mirrors. But even at our house,

143
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,680
I always closed our doors. And one night my wife,

144
00:07:16,879 --> 00:07:20,120
who's usually a sound sleeper, just sat up in bed,

145
00:07:20,279 --> 00:07:22,240
shook my shoulders and said, you need to close the

146
00:07:22,279 --> 00:07:24,519
closet door. And I was like what, and she goes,

147
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,839
you need to close the closet door. Now scary. I

148
00:07:27,879 --> 00:07:29,639
bolted out of bed to close it, and did it

149
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,759
feel a little resistant when I tried pulling the handle, closed,

150
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,839
ran back the fuck to bed, and left my flashlight

151
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:37,720
on for the rest of the night. When I got

152
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:39,800
back in bed, my wife was already laying back down.

153
00:07:39,879 --> 00:07:42,360
It's throwing away like she did not just scare the

154
00:07:42,439 --> 00:07:48,480
life out of me. Wow behavior, not after hearing something now. No.

155
00:07:49,079 --> 00:07:51,439
The next morning, I asked her if she remembered waking

156
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:53,439
me up the night before and talked to me. She

157
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:55,519
said no, that she did not remember that, and she

158
00:07:55,639 --> 00:07:59,199
was just dreaming the entire time, like uninterrupted dreaming and

159
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,000
her dream Also, I had nothing to do with our

160
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:04,279
closet or door being open. Oh my god, that's this

161
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:07,279
is worse. Yeah, it's worse. Yeah, that shit still terrifies

162
00:08:07,319 --> 00:08:09,920
me today, and that happened almost two years ago now

163
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:12,199
to this day, I sort of know if I forgot

164
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:16,279
to close the door before going to bed partesies unlikely, Yes,

165
00:08:16,639 --> 00:08:20,800
very unlikely. Not Yeah, Or if whatever it was opened

166
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:22,800
it and was trying to get out question mark question

167
00:08:22,839 --> 00:08:26,920
mark question marketing. Oh my god, I was scary. I

168
00:08:26,959 --> 00:08:29,160
don't know, and I hate thinking about it still. Anyway,

169
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:31,639
That's been my most recent experiences, but like I said,

170
00:08:31,639 --> 00:08:33,399
I have so many more that I love to share.

171
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:36,000
It was a struggle even sharing just these, though, because

172
00:08:36,039 --> 00:08:38,559
every time I tried something what happened to stop me.

173
00:08:39,159 --> 00:08:42,159
I tried leaving voice notes telling these experiences, but when

174
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,240
I listened back to it, it would be cut out.

175
00:08:44,279 --> 00:08:46,799
For the closet part. I try leaving a voicemail and

176
00:08:46,799 --> 00:08:49,240
it would constantly hang up on me before I could

177
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:52,000
get halfway through. My computer died once when I tried

178
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,399
typing it out on the email, even though it was

179
00:08:54,440 --> 00:09:00,759
fully charged. Crazy Like I'm legit scared, but I can't

180
00:09:00,759 --> 00:09:06,039
take myself seriously with my seat A little message I

181
00:09:06,759 --> 00:09:09,120
made a scared perce and I immediately was gonna laugh

182
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,000
oh this is my love. Even now my computer is

183
00:09:12,039 --> 00:09:14,679
plugged in and saying that it has less than fifty

184
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:18,080
percent charge, and I feel dizzy and thirsty, even though

185
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,960
we literally had a good dinner and epictricking water. It's

186
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,080
like something doesn't want me to tell others it's here.

187
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:27,759
We'll see what happens. I guess. Oh my god, Isabella,

188
00:09:27,799 --> 00:09:30,559
please tell us that you're okay. First of all, Isabella,

189
00:09:30,639 --> 00:09:32,639
we would love your stories, but we don't need them.

190
00:09:32,639 --> 00:09:35,480
It's okay, we appreciate these, we really loved it. But

191
00:09:35,639 --> 00:09:38,080
if it's going to be dangerous for you to tell

192
00:09:38,159 --> 00:09:40,960
us more stories, don't do it. Don't do it. Don't

193
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:45,960
we don't need them. It's okay. Yeah, self care. Wow

194
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:51,639
that was wild? Yeah, all right, well Kantin plus yeah

195
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:55,679
you you know kantim Plas, don't be all yeah, who

196
00:09:55,720 --> 00:10:01,080
doesn't an iconic actor. I will say I've never seen anything.

197
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:07,039
I only know who he is, but I've never watched

198
00:10:07,279 --> 00:10:11,600
I feel like I've seen little clips here and there,

199
00:10:11,639 --> 00:10:13,879
but never like a full blown movie of his. I

200
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:19,440
never watched. Same. Yeah, iconic though, iconic for sure. Oh yeah, yeah,

201
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,919
this is why the Mexicans say you're not actually a Mexican.

202
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:27,240
I'm not Mexican enough for the Mexicans. I'm not. Yeah,

203
00:10:27,399 --> 00:10:32,080
first of all, I'm half story and they hate that. Again.

204
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:42,960
I'm done. I'm done anyway, Plaz. Did you know that

205
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:46,679
he was obsessed with mermaids? Yes, I did, because MG

206
00:10:46,879 --> 00:10:52,240
told us to say, no, it's pretty that rewind his No.

207
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:59,440
Really I didn't know, yes, yeah, yeah, And they say

208
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,200
that if you watch his movies, there's like little hints

209
00:11:02,279 --> 00:11:05,039
here and there about his obsession. I wouldn't know because

210
00:11:05,039 --> 00:11:08,159
I was just gonna say, you know why, we don't

211
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:11,039
know it because we've never seen these movies exactly. Yeah,

212
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,519
so my bad, But that's what they say. That's what

213
00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:17,960
they say. And yeah, so he was obsessed. And the

214
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:21,440
stay of Guerrero itself, where he has a home in Acapulco,

215
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:25,200
is full of mermaid legends. We've already shared some. I'm

216
00:11:25,279 --> 00:11:28,799
going to share a couple legends before talking about cantin

217
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,480
Flas and what it has to do with Guerretro and

218
00:11:31,519 --> 00:11:34,960
mermaids other than he was obsessed. The state of Guerrero

219
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:38,879
is full of legends of mermaids. And I know, like

220
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,320
in Spanish you just use the word siedena. It's all

221
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,799
the same. In English, there's like, oh, there's not a mermaid,

222
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:46,480
it's a siren. Oh, they're only in the ocean. That

223
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:50,200
doesn't matter in Mexico. In Mexico and there in the lakes,

224
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,679
they're in the rivers, they're in the ocean, they're everywhere

225
00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:54,080
as long as it's a body of water, like it

226
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:57,120
doesn't matter in Mexico. And usually people just say CNAs

227
00:11:57,159 --> 00:11:59,840
And I'm just gonna use either sedan or a mermaid.

228
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:03,120
So I'm going to be sharing some legends from Guerrero

229
00:12:03,279 --> 00:12:08,000
because that's where cantin Flanz has a house in Acapulco, Guerrero.

230
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:12,679
He made his house specifically to attract Cidnass And we're

231
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,039
gonna get into that after I show these legends. Also

232
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:18,080
because I love I just there's some of my favorite stories,

233
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,879
like mermaids and stuff. I don't remember them, so I

234
00:12:20,919 --> 00:12:26,120
haven't shared these before. These. According to legend, Acidna lives

235
00:12:26,159 --> 00:12:30,080
in the Laguna of Wamustitlan, a pueblo in the mountains

236
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,519
of Guerrero. She starts to sit on a rock at

237
00:12:32,519 --> 00:12:35,120
the edge of the lake after midnight, and then just

238
00:12:35,159 --> 00:12:38,039
before the sun rises, she goes back into the lake

239
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:40,720
and she just sits there brushing her hair, hanging out

240
00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,679
on this rock. You uh lorie. Men to their death

241
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:47,120
even cuter, even cuter a cedanas tend to do so.

242
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,360
The lake can be seen from the road, and it

243
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:52,440
said that if a driver sees her chilling after midnight

244
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:55,960
on this rock, they get so distracted. There's accidents because

245
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,000
of her. Even if you're that far away where the

246
00:12:58,039 --> 00:13:01,440
road is. If you hear her, she will hypnotize you.

247
00:13:02,039 --> 00:13:03,879
And so you have to go to the lake and

248
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:06,279
follow the sound of her voice, and then you know

249
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:08,720
you see her. You keep following her into the lake.

250
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:10,279
You know, you go into the lake and then you

251
00:13:10,279 --> 00:13:13,039
don't come back out. You just you drown. Because that's

252
00:13:13,039 --> 00:13:15,639
what she wants. People have abandoned their cars on the

253
00:13:15,639 --> 00:13:18,720
side of the road to follow her in. Oh wow. Yeah,

254
00:13:18,759 --> 00:13:21,240
once you hear her, you're done. And you know, the

255
00:13:21,279 --> 00:13:23,559
things I read all set people, but these stories it's

256
00:13:23,639 --> 00:13:26,840
usually man. So men follow her and will swim across

257
00:13:26,879 --> 00:13:29,559
the water to reach her. When she dives in, they follow,

258
00:13:29,759 --> 00:13:33,480
drowning to death. People in ms Titlan avoid the area

259
00:13:33,639 --> 00:13:36,000
once it's dark because no one wants to run into her.

260
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:37,919
I watched the video of this guy. He's in front

261
00:13:37,919 --> 00:13:39,799
of the lake during the day, of course, and he

262
00:13:39,879 --> 00:13:42,360
walks by. He's like, and this legend you can find

263
00:13:42,399 --> 00:13:44,960
it on Google whatever, but it's like the people believe it.

264
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:46,919
And he runs into some random women and he's like,

265
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,679
you hang out here and I She's like, no, La

266
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:53,919
Siena lives here, like come in here. So yeah, that

267
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:59,720
was last Sitrena the christ tlam Yes thinky well Moo's

268
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:07,159
did and it's hard to say. Yeah. And that's just

269
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,840
one of many Mermaid legends, like I said, a bunch

270
00:14:09,879 --> 00:14:12,879
of times already. We've shared several already in the past,

271
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:15,200
you know, past episodes. It has been a while though.

272
00:14:15,279 --> 00:14:20,039
There's even a famous traditional Mexican song called have you

273
00:14:20,039 --> 00:14:22,080
heard it? I don't think so. Yeah, it's one of

274
00:14:22,159 --> 00:14:26,399
those very traditional songs singing in wasteco, like a very

275
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:30,799
gary Why did I send it to you? What's wrong

276
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:33,080
with me? Yeah? Oh I guess it's what bangoing, not

277
00:14:33,519 --> 00:14:34,159
what you said.

278
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:46,200
Speaker 2: Whatever I said, I can hear it.

279
00:14:56,120 --> 00:15:00,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, you got the idea that wor it was just

280
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:03,039
it was gonna take forever. Okay, just fast forward it

281
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:13,879
fast forwarded to the words. Okay, I like it. Yeah,

282
00:15:14,039 --> 00:15:17,320
here La sirena something something, So I have them written down.

283
00:15:17,399 --> 00:15:22,159
I'm just gonna share. I'm gonna share the words. So yeah,

284
00:15:22,159 --> 00:15:25,120
it's it's sung in that style, and it's about a sierna,

285
00:15:25,519 --> 00:15:28,159
a woman who turns into a siena. And so you know.

286
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:32,679
Here the lyrics in Spanish, some of them Lamera Maria,

287
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:42,440
the la prime Maria, pro Corea Gonelagua Coorea and Corea

288
00:15:42,519 --> 00:15:50,519
yevando Arena jevando Arena Connela Corea Asia and el Marna.

289
00:15:50,799 --> 00:15:54,080
And this is a rough translation made by me. So

290
00:15:57,519 --> 00:15:59,960
was born of the first Maria, of the first Maria.

291
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:02,559
She was born, but the sea current took her the

292
00:16:02,639 --> 00:16:04,879
sea cret she fell in love with with the water

293
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:08,039
that ran, taking foam and sand, foem and sand with

294
00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:10,639
the sea current that ran. That's how the mermaid was

295
00:16:10,639 --> 00:16:14,320
born in the sea. And the legend that the song

296
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,759
is about is that there was a beautiful young woman

297
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:22,320
with black hair, brown skin and big brown eyes. Cute. Yeah.

298
00:16:22,519 --> 00:16:27,039
Her name was I Savedra Gonzalez. Her father, Abundio, had

299
00:16:27,039 --> 00:16:29,399
passed away, and her mother was now a widow who

300
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:32,639
dedicated herself to the church. She was very religious, always

301
00:16:32,679 --> 00:16:38,320
making sure to follow the Catholic doctrine, including not working

302
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:42,879
on holy days and so on. A Juez santo Ide

303
00:16:43,399 --> 00:16:48,159
decided to go gather lenyas in firewood, and her mother

304
00:16:48,279 --> 00:16:50,200
was against it because she shouldn't be working. It was

305
00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:53,759
a holy day, Holy Thursday. She should be resting. Yeah,

306
00:16:53,799 --> 00:16:57,440
she should be resting, and so irene ridaa and whatever.

307
00:16:57,519 --> 00:16:59,720
She didn't listen. When she returned, she told her mom

308
00:16:59,759 --> 00:17:01,080
that she is going to go wash up in the

309
00:17:01,159 --> 00:17:03,200
river because now her hands were all dirty from the

310
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:05,599
hard work she had just done. And her mom was like,

311
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:08,920
it's wrong to bathe yourself, dreamed Samana Santa all week,

312
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,880
you're not supposed to shower, apparently. I don't know why

313
00:17:11,839 --> 00:17:15,000
I know that, or she came from the Spaniards, obviously,

314
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:20,640
I thought, you know what I'm saying, how religious? Say?

315
00:17:20,799 --> 00:17:23,839
I am showering. I need to shower to feel clean

316
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:28,480
when I go to sleep. Yeah, and then sometimes I

317
00:17:28,559 --> 00:17:30,480
just want to shower again in the morning. I'm wasting

318
00:17:30,519 --> 00:17:31,960
a lot of water. I don't care. Oh, you know,

319
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:36,160
because sometimes I sweat at night. Yeah, everyone does, right,

320
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:42,000
It's not just me. No, No, of course, anyway, didn't listen.

321
00:17:42,079 --> 00:17:43,839
She's like, you know what, I'll just wash my face

322
00:17:43,839 --> 00:17:46,519
then and she went to the river. Sometime later that

323
00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:50,839
Massia Iden's mom heard screaming. It was her daughter yelling

324
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:53,599
for help. That Massia ran to the lake and she

325
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:56,720
saw her daughter inside of the water, only now she

326
00:17:56,920 --> 00:18:00,799
was half fish half woman. And then out of nowhere,

327
00:18:00,839 --> 00:18:05,160
a giant wave swallowed. When the water was calm again,

328
00:18:05,799 --> 00:18:08,119
Ena was nowhere to be seen. That Massia ran to

329
00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:10,880
the town center and gathered everyone. They returned to the

330
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:13,640
lake where they saw a mermaid. And then the mermaid

331
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:17,559
began to yell ak betn ak, which means to spin

332
00:18:18,079 --> 00:18:22,519
in the nek like indigenous language of this area. Oh

333
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:25,559
As she yelled the words, the creatures of the lake

334
00:18:25,599 --> 00:18:29,319
began to spin around her. They formed a whirlpool that

335
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:33,680
spun and spun until the mermaid was underwater. And her

336
00:18:33,799 --> 00:18:36,960
name Latra comes from the words that the people of

337
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:40,759
the town heard her say. But then ak and now

338
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:44,279
it said that fishermen who hear her singing are hypnotized

339
00:18:44,319 --> 00:18:49,680
by her beauty. Then she flips their boats not good, no, no,

340
00:18:49,799 --> 00:18:54,079
causing waves until they drown and join her forever in

341
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:58,359
this little lake. And that's from Vera Cruz, but there's

342
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:01,799
a very similar version in Grero that has its own song.

343
00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:05,039
They're almost the same. The only difference is that in

344
00:19:05,079 --> 00:19:08,519
Guerrero she's not collecting wood. She's doing her laundry, which

345
00:19:08,559 --> 00:19:11,839
is more work. Man, I don't know. They both sound

346
00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:14,880
like we're hard work. Actually, I feel like because she

347
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:17,920
was collecting nanyella, right, yeah, we're I feel like that's

348
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:21,160
harder than doing laundry, right, you're right. Sorry, I just

349
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:25,519
hate laundry. Yeah. And so in the ghetto Vergion, she's

350
00:19:25,559 --> 00:19:27,799
doing laundry, but she's so persistent on doing it on

351
00:19:27,839 --> 00:19:31,279
this day because her boyfriend, her secret boyfriend, is also

352
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:35,240
out the river doing laundry and they're supposed to meet.

353
00:19:35,279 --> 00:19:40,400
So really, this is a don't have secret boyfriends warning,

354
00:19:40,759 --> 00:19:43,960
and listen to your mother. Be a good Catholic. Don't

355
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:46,599
get me started on having to hide your boyfriend from

356
00:19:46,599 --> 00:19:52,000
your mom's the trunk. We can't go there, traumatic, I can,

357
00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:55,720
oh god. But also kind of funny now no, I

358
00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:59,079
don't know, sort of will are you finished before I

359
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:03,319
get into my stuff? Sorry? Okay. And in Guerrero, Laa

360
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,039
is said to live in a lake in a pueblo

361
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:09,519
of the Costa Chica of Guerrero and Vera Cruz. She

362
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:14,279
lives in the pueblo of Francho Nuevo in Laguna Dammi

363
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:19,119
dam yaha, dam yah wa. I'm not sure what I'm saying. Sorry,

364
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:23,960
I just laughing. No, you can't take anything I'm saying

365
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:31,839
seriously with my no mustache here, Okay, I can't either, Okay, Okay,

366
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:34,640
you know. And so yeah, those are the mermaids stories

367
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,240
from Guerrero that I wanted to share before talking about

368
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:41,480
the very famous Mexican actor Cantine Flas who was obsessed

369
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:44,440
with mermaids, so obsessed that he built a whole house

370
00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:47,240
in a Capulco to attract them. But before that, wasn't

371
00:20:47,279 --> 00:20:50,759
hey scared of being drowned by them? No, he just

372
00:20:50,799 --> 00:20:53,359
he loved them. Okay, Before that, what were you going

373
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:55,960
to talk about? Scle boyfriends and moms. I was just

374
00:20:56,000 --> 00:21:01,640
gonna say that, Okay, our mom was horrible and that aspect. Mom,

375
00:21:01,799 --> 00:21:05,480
if you're listening, you know she knows, right. But now okay,

376
00:21:05,519 --> 00:21:09,799
I told her. Okay, so we of course, like everyone does,

377
00:21:10,039 --> 00:21:12,559
we had boyfriends that we had from her, right, And

378
00:21:12,559 --> 00:21:14,559
then I don't remember how she Oh, we remember that

379
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:16,559
note Okay, we had our notebook. I'm sure it was

380
00:21:16,559 --> 00:21:18,880
the comment passed around. Yeah, we passed around to all

381
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:20,640
of our friends like we would like put it in

382
00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:22,920
each other's lockers or like you know, hand it to

383
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:24,839
each other every class road or whatever, and we would

384
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:28,200
write notes to each other, Yeah about the day, catch up, cheese, myths.

385
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:30,519
We didn't have phones, so this is what we had

386
00:21:30,599 --> 00:21:33,480
to do. Yeah, because you know, now you can just text,

387
00:21:33,519 --> 00:21:36,200
but back then that was the group chat. I was

388
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:38,599
gonna say phones worthing. But we were broke bitches, all

389
00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:40,559
of us, so none of us had phones. I think

390
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:42,960
we all got phones like senior year, except us. But

391
00:21:43,039 --> 00:21:45,359
I think back then too, texting was like ten cents

392
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,319
a text. Yeah, I feel like most people weren't texting.

393
00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:50,119
I don't know about the rich white kids, but we

394
00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:52,759
weren't texting, let alone had our own phones. You know. So, yeah,

395
00:21:52,759 --> 00:21:55,480
we had this notebook and we passed around. It was

396
00:21:55,599 --> 00:21:58,039
like today's group chat. And of course we were talking

397
00:21:58,039 --> 00:22:00,480
about our boyfriends and our mom. First of all, she

398
00:22:00,519 --> 00:22:05,839
wouldn't have been getting into our ship, you know, like moms,

399
00:22:06,799 --> 00:22:09,000
there's no privacy. Probably all that thing. I was not

400
00:22:09,039 --> 00:22:13,480
just Mexican moms digging in our ship, read our fucking notebooks,

401
00:22:13,519 --> 00:22:16,720
and was like, what the fuck? Yelled for hours all

402
00:22:16,759 --> 00:22:19,960
the other moms. Yeah, yep, ever, you got in trouble

403
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,359
and it was our fall. Yeah, I'm surprised they talked

404
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:24,680
to us after that. I would have shunned us. I

405
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:27,200
would have. I would have, yeah, hand down, that's how

406
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:32,440
it was shunning easy And anyway, she was like going

407
00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:35,319
on and off for hours about how we were like disrespecting,

408
00:22:35,319 --> 00:22:38,000
blah blah, and then she made she made us like

409
00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:40,240
Neil in front of our I died the year round.

410
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:43,559
I thought of our I forgot about this, Yeah, of

411
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:49,920
our great grandfather to beg for forgiveness. And I told

412
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:51,640
you that. She's like, I don't remember doing that, and

413
00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:53,279
I was like, what the fuck you don't fucking rap?

414
00:22:53,799 --> 00:22:58,559
Oh no, not the classic. No, I think I would

415
00:22:58,559 --> 00:23:00,519
have remembered if I made you do that. Like, She's like,

416
00:23:00,519 --> 00:23:03,240
my bad, if I did that, that's an exaggeration, and

417
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:07,799
I'm like, yes, it doesn't bit much, and yeah, that's what. Uh,

418
00:23:08,319 --> 00:23:10,640
that's what happened. Should have should have just turned into

419
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:13,240
a mermaid, right, Yeah, I was like, I don't blame

420
00:23:13,279 --> 00:23:15,839
her for choosing the mermaid life. No, but there's no

421
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,200
closed body of water here, so we didn't have that off.

422
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:20,000
But also she didn't choose it. It was a curse for

423
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:23,359
all the right here. Mom. Yeah, yeah, although honestly sometimes

424
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:28,720
it sounds a little better. No mortgage, no bills around

425
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:33,160
the sea levels are rising, So mermaids are gaining capital.

426
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:41,599
That's true. That's very true. So are many industryed. Yeah,

427
00:23:41,599 --> 00:23:42,720
there's no like win win here.

428
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:43,119
Speaker 2: Yeah.

429
00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:47,400
Speaker 1: Okay, well we're all screwed. Yeah we are. We'll take

430
00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:51,200
a little our brain here to contemplate all this. Who's

431
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:57,200
better off us are the mermaids? I'm not sure. Welcome

432
00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:59,319

452
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,519
we are. I don't know what's going on, so yeah,

453
00:25:28,559 --> 00:25:32,279
those are some legends, Mermaid legends from Verac, nave Cruz,

454
00:25:32,279 --> 00:25:34,640
from Guerrero and yeah, like I said, I wanted to

455
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,839
talk about all this because of cantin Flas having a

456
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:40,319
house to attract mermaids. You know, he's probably the most

457
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:44,359
famous Mexican comedian. He was born August twelfth. Leo oh

458
00:25:44,519 --> 00:25:47,559
oh leo. Okay, fam haven't seen his movie, but I

459
00:25:47,599 --> 00:25:51,319
am a fan. So his movie is plural. He's one movie.

460
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:54,960
I haven't seen it. And then sadly he passed away

461
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,680
on the twenty of April nineteen eighty three from I

462
00:25:57,680 --> 00:25:59,839
want to say. It was lung cancer. And he was

463
00:25:59,839 --> 00:26:02,240
a I mean hundreds and hundreds of movies. He was

464
00:26:02,279 --> 00:26:06,440
called the Charlie Chaplin of Mexico. Charlie Chaplin himself said

465
00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:10,079
Kantin Plantz was the best comedian alive. Wow. And he

466
00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:13,680
even had parts in Hollywood. He has a star in Hollywood.

467
00:26:14,599 --> 00:26:18,440
I haven't seen it, but it's there. I actually haven't

468
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:22,000
seen any downtown street, but I don't remember carriers to

469
00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:25,559
look down like who was there? Yeah, I don't know

470
00:26:25,599 --> 00:26:28,240
what's wrong with us today anyway. So you can see

471
00:26:28,319 --> 00:26:30,920
him in the og around the world in eighty days,

472
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:32,960
like he won an award for that movie. Oh, I

473
00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:35,359
didn't know that. Yeah, And when you think of the

474
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:38,720
golden era of Mexican cinema, Cantin Plants is like, oh yeah,

475
00:26:38,759 --> 00:26:40,680
the first person that comes to my mind. And then

476
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:43,039
maybe like I don't know Bee, which they were the

477
00:26:43,079 --> 00:26:46,599
best buddies, so that makes sense? Y, yeah, whose monstache

478
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:54,799
is better? Come on? Yeah, you see the Kanti massage.

479
00:26:55,559 --> 00:26:58,240
So when he passed away, it was a very very

480
00:26:58,279 --> 00:27:02,200
sad thing for everyone in Mexico declared three days of mourning,

481
00:27:02,519 --> 00:27:08,200
national mourning, and there was national homoges for him, and

482
00:27:08,279 --> 00:27:11,440
even the US Congress had a minute of silence. Oh wow,

483
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:14,240
that's the way. Yeah, which I didn't know. I mean,

484
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:19,279
you could easily say he had it all, not mermaids. Yeah, exactly,

485
00:27:19,319 --> 00:27:23,200
he wasn't happy he needed mermaids. And yeah, apparently if

486
00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:25,440
you look back on his movies you can see the science.

487
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:28,519
But again I wouldn't know. Maybe we should watch a

488
00:27:28,559 --> 00:27:32,480
Kantiinflas movie. We should. So it said that one night

489
00:27:32,559 --> 00:27:36,079
at a bar in Mexico City, Kantiinflanz was there drinking

490
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,839
when he was approached by a man named Carlos Lorenzo Ernandez,

491
00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:43,559
and soon the pair of men began chatting, drinking, having

492
00:27:43,599 --> 00:27:47,720
those deep conversations that you have with strangers at a bar. Yeah, well,

493
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:51,240
not with strangers, but with my drunk friends, yes, exactly. Yeah,

494
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:54,119
doesn't talk to strangers drunk conversations. I don't talk. I'm

495
00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:58,440
not an extrovert. That's why I don't have friends. During this,

496
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:02,279
Kantimflas told him told the man that fame and fortune,

497
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:04,640
it just it wasn't enough. And he had this deep,

498
00:28:04,759 --> 00:28:10,480
deep desire to marry a mermaid. I mean, they're hot.

499
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,359
I would want to to. Yeah, so I don't. I

500
00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:17,359
don't blame him, so he thought. I thought the man

501
00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:19,200
was going to laugh at him, like that's so silly,

502
00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:21,799
what do you mean mary a mermaid? But no, the

503
00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:24,839
man didn't laugh. Instead, he told him this was possible,

504
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:28,160
and he told him he could make this happen for him.

505
00:28:28,519 --> 00:28:30,480
So they wouldn't be easy. He had to follow his

506
00:28:30,599 --> 00:28:34,359
exact instructions, and so he handed kantin Plants a small

507
00:28:34,519 --> 00:28:37,960
quartz and then he told him, you have to build

508
00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:40,839
a mansion on the edge of the sea. That mansion

509
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:45,039
has to have a giant statue of yourself facing the sea.

510
00:28:45,119 --> 00:28:48,160
I love this. Yeah, I don't know. Kantivlas has statues

511
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:50,720
of him all over Mexico like that. He built himself,

512
00:28:50,799 --> 00:28:52,319
Like I don't. I would too if I was at

513
00:28:52,599 --> 00:28:56,160
I mean Leo. He's a Leo like. Yeah, of course,

514
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:59,359
So I'm going to actually commission a statue of us. No,

515
00:29:00,839 --> 00:29:02,680
oh my god, Okay, I have a stout one in

516
00:29:02,759 --> 00:29:05,240
front of my house that I hate. What if I

517
00:29:05,319 --> 00:29:08,920
tear down that fountain? What the statue was? Yeah, So

518
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:11,920
the mansion had to have a giant statue of him

519
00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:14,599
facing the sea. And then he needed to build a

520
00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:18,279
pool that connected to the sea, so like a seawater pool.

521
00:29:18,559 --> 00:29:23,559
Oh my god, sounds luxurious, very yeah, and that way

522
00:29:23,599 --> 00:29:26,920
mermaids can enter. Once all this was done, he had

523
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:30,000
to stand in front of his statue facing the ocean

524
00:29:30,079 --> 00:29:33,480
with that small quartz in his hand. At exactly two am.

525
00:29:33,759 --> 00:29:37,119
Solas did exactly what the man said. When his mansion

526
00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:41,519
was finally built, he walked out to the statue of himself.

527
00:29:42,039 --> 00:29:44,480
The giant statue of himself stood in front of it,

528
00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:50,920
facing the sea. Suddenly the man reappeared. What how, I

529
00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:52,640
don't know. If he just knew the house was done,

530
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,680
looking up the progress of the house he was walking

531
00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:58,559
by every day. Yeah, something, I'm not sure. So the

532
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:01,359
man reappeared and told him, see, I told you I

533
00:30:01,359 --> 00:30:03,720
would be back. Now move closer. To the water, and

534
00:30:03,759 --> 00:30:05,839
then both men stood at the edge of the pier

535
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:10,279
with the courts holding the quartz stone. And they didn't

536
00:30:10,319 --> 00:30:13,279
just see one mermaid. They saw a bunch of mermaids.

537
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:16,079
And I'm not sure one of them agreed to American

538
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:18,839
timplass then and there, like maybe it took some time.

539
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:20,559
I don't know. I mean, I feel like you still

540
00:30:20,559 --> 00:30:22,839
have the woo, you know, like you can't you can't

541
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:26,160
just have a mermaid. Yeah, although it didn't take much

542
00:30:26,279 --> 00:30:28,720
for what's his name in The Little Mermaid Prince Eric,

543
00:30:29,079 --> 00:30:32,039
she was kind of desperate things. You're right, she was, Yeah,

544
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:36,279
I'm not gonna we can't hold all mermaids to mermaids

545
00:30:36,319 --> 00:30:41,799
aerials like standard or whatever. Yeah. Yeah. So after that moment,

546
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:45,599
Kantis would throw these amazing parties where the special guests

547
00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:50,880
of these parties were mermaids. What allegedly other famous people

548
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:53,279
saw the mermaids at his house. Okay, I want to

549
00:30:53,319 --> 00:30:57,960
know what drugs they were on. I need names. What drugs? Yeah,

550
00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:01,200
that too, and I also names. And he had a

551
00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:04,759
pool that had a various openings that went out into

552
00:31:04,799 --> 00:31:07,000
the sea. That's so cool, though, I want to see

553
00:31:07,039 --> 00:31:09,720
the house. Unfortunately, it has received quite a bit of

554
00:31:09,759 --> 00:31:12,920
damage from like hurricanes, because again it isn't a couple

555
00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:16,680
of pool and it's been abandoned for a while. So

556
00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:19,240
can you buy this house? How much is a cousin?

557
00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:21,839
You probably could, but it's just going to keep getting

558
00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:27,000
damaged from more hurricanes. They're geing worse they are, so yeah,

559
00:31:27,119 --> 00:31:29,880
you could tell though that the house was beautiful once,

560
00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:32,599
like when you're looking at images of people there, and

561
00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:35,559
that the pools were beautiful, and yeah, it said that

562
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:39,039
mermaids entered this pool and they were amazing parties. And

563
00:31:39,119 --> 00:31:41,440
if mermaids were really there, I mean, you know what,

564
00:31:41,519 --> 00:31:43,680
I believe it? Who am I? Who am I to

565
00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:44,400
not believe them?

566
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:44,599
Speaker 2: You know?

567
00:31:44,759 --> 00:31:47,759
Speaker 1: Like yeah, yeah, it's even said that he made a

568
00:31:47,839 --> 00:31:50,759
pact with these mermaids where he would live forever. I mean,

569
00:31:50,799 --> 00:31:53,279
obviously he passed away, but it said that the pack

570
00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:56,640
came true because his soul is trapped in the giant

571
00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:59,759
statue of him in front of his house. They say

572
00:32:00,119 --> 00:32:02,359
that the statue comes to life at two am. Oh

573
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:05,960
my god, like people have seen it move. It's said

574
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:08,160
to take the form of a human and then lounch

575
00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:10,839
itself into the sea. Others say that if you stand

576
00:32:10,839 --> 00:32:12,799
in front of the statue at two am, you can

577
00:32:12,839 --> 00:32:16,200
feel a hand touch your shoulder trying to lure you

578
00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:19,240
into the sea. I don't like that. No, I don't

579
00:32:19,279 --> 00:32:21,720
like that either. Some versions of the story say that

580
00:32:21,799 --> 00:32:24,759
the man Kantivlas met at the bar in Mexico City

581
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:27,279
wasn't actually a man, It was a mermaid. It was

582
00:32:27,319 --> 00:32:32,880
a devil of course. Yeah, of course, and he annoyingly

583
00:32:33,039 --> 00:32:36,960
sold this soul to him. Precisely, that's exactly it. The

584
00:32:37,039 --> 00:32:40,279
devil tricked him into this deal, and that's why his

585
00:32:40,359 --> 00:32:44,200
soul is trapped in that statue. Yeah, and he can

586
00:32:44,279 --> 00:32:46,960
only be set free if someone stands in front of

587
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:50,039
the statue at two am and gets pulled into the water,

588
00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:53,799
like all the way where they drown. They then take

589
00:32:53,799 --> 00:32:56,680
the place, but there still takes the place of Gantivlas's soul.

590
00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:59,279
I'm sorry, Cantilas, I wouldn't do that for you. I wouldn't,

591
00:32:59,279 --> 00:33:01,519
I wouldn't know. This is like a chatro negro. But

592
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:03,839
then you can't even like travel around you're trapped in

593
00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:06,079
the statue. Yeah, that's no fun. I mean, you get

594
00:33:06,079 --> 00:33:08,240
to leave every day at two am and go into

595
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:12,680
the ocean. Oh true, Now is that better? No? What's worse?

596
00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:18,759
Is that better than being alive? Right now? I things

597
00:33:18,759 --> 00:33:24,200
to contemplate and sadly today the house is in ruins,

598
00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:27,680
but it's still there. The statue is still there. It's gigantic.

599
00:33:27,799 --> 00:33:31,559
Like I watched the video of these two couple that

600
00:33:31,599 --> 00:33:33,640
goes there. The guys he looks like a tall guy.

601
00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:37,319
Maybe he was like not even to the statues, like me, like,

602
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:40,880
it's a big statue. Wow. And yeah, you can go

603
00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:43,480
and see the statue. It's still there. People that live

604
00:33:43,559 --> 00:33:46,599
nearby say that you can hear mermaids at that same time,

605
00:33:46,759 --> 00:33:49,319
always two am in this instance, but you can hear

606
00:33:49,359 --> 00:33:52,799
them visit the abandoned mansion, still looking for the man

607
00:33:52,839 --> 00:33:56,880
that loved them so much. Oh, I mean that's sweet.

608
00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:59,839
I think it's sweet. No, I agree. So if that's

609
00:33:59,839 --> 00:34:03,519
not weird enough, that's not the only mysterious things surrounding

610
00:34:03,559 --> 00:34:07,279
kantin Flass. Really, I guess the mermaids that's probably the strangest,

611
00:34:07,319 --> 00:34:10,360
most like mysterious thing there. But you know him and

612
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:13,440
pether Infante I said earlier, there were BFFs. Yeah, okay,

613
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:16,719
and bether infante. He didn't die super young, but he

614
00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:19,159
didn't die like he didn't live to be you know

615
00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:22,119
old either. He died in a plane crash, and there's

616
00:34:22,159 --> 00:34:25,239
a conspiracy theory that he didn't actually die in that

617
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:28,119
plane crash. Kantin Flass like he faked his death and

618
00:34:28,199 --> 00:34:31,079
Kanti Flas kept him hidden in one of his properties.

619
00:34:31,159 --> 00:34:33,960
Oh wow, because he just wanted a normal life. He

620
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:36,239
didn't want to be famous anymore. He just wanted to chill.

621
00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:40,000
If he did that for him, that would be really nice. Yeah,

622
00:34:40,039 --> 00:34:42,360
and there's people out there who claim to have run

623
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:45,320
into bether Infante like later as an elderly man, and

624
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:47,559
you know he like since passed away, but he got

625
00:34:47,599 --> 00:34:50,639
to live a normal life hiding out in Kantinflans's house,

626
00:34:51,199 --> 00:34:53,599
one of his many houses. So yeah, that was a

627
00:34:53,639 --> 00:34:55,760
little odd and I just wanted to mention it as well.

628
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:58,480
But yeah, like I said, a lot of those houses

629
00:34:58,519 --> 00:35:02,320
have Kanti Flast statues too. There's one I want to say,

630
00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:06,840
Mexico City and like the Roma neighborhood. Maybe Oh really,

631
00:35:07,119 --> 00:35:08,960
Oh I wish I would have known that you can

632
00:35:09,039 --> 00:35:12,000
rotate it. Oh wow. Yeah, if you only had known,

633
00:35:12,039 --> 00:35:14,119
you could have fun to see counting from us I

634
00:35:14,159 --> 00:35:16,599
want to go see the statue in a caprico. I'm

635
00:35:16,599 --> 00:35:18,559
not going to be there Atoyin though, I'm too scared.

636
00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:22,840
Maybe we'll see a mermaid right them. Yeah, like I said,

637
00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:26,119
the mension is what's further destroyed with the last hurricane.

638
00:35:26,119 --> 00:35:29,920
That's hurricanes right now that have done serious damage to

639
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:34,960
a Capuco also here, also here. Yeah, it's a terrible time. Yeah,

640
00:35:35,039 --> 00:35:36,599
so you know what, Yeah, I put some things for

641
00:35:36,679 --> 00:35:39,639
like some community funds so we can help out, and

642
00:35:39,679 --> 00:35:42,000
I'll also help out a little bit. But yeah, it's

643
00:35:42,079 --> 00:35:45,199
it got damaged and the statue hopefully it's still. Like

644
00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:49,400
it's such a beautiful house and like if only natural

645
00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:51,960
disasters didn't happen and the house could be restored, like

646
00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:56,079
imagine that. Yeah, that would be amazing. That would be amazing,

647
00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:58,440
and then we could just hang out there and we

648
00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:00,679
could buy it. No, I'm not rich enough, but yeah

649
00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:05,119
that is Kantivlas and mermaids. What a cool story. Yeah,

650
00:36:05,159 --> 00:36:07,000
at first, I'm like, man, that's like a little silly,

651
00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:08,920
but you know what, good for him for having a

652
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:11,320
dream and obsession and trying to make it happen, like

653
00:36:12,039 --> 00:36:15,320
just going for it, you know. Yeah, I don't hate it.

654
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:18,960
I like it. I support it. Yeah yeah, I like it.

655
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:21,800
And I hope that he did marry a mermaid. Yeah,

656
00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:24,440
me too. Or they just had this like relationship with

657
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:26,840
a bunch of mermaids, like a consensual one, you know,

658
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:28,400
where they were just like they all just did what

659
00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:32,360
they wanted. Maybe they wanted that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm

660
00:36:32,360 --> 00:36:35,639
going to send you some clips of the house. Oh wow,

661
00:36:36,199 --> 00:36:39,840
it is big. It's a giant statue that to look

662
00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:42,920
really nice, that house, like in its prime, it would

663
00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:46,880
have been really beautiful, beautiful, right, And these people that

664
00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:49,400
went there, I'll put this link in the show notes

665
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:51,800
in case anyone understands Spanish and wants to see like

666
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:54,239
the house and people like walking around it. I'll put

667
00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:58,840
that in the show notes. But they were there waiting

668
00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:00,679
to see if they sign anything around to Am and

669
00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:03,199
they didn't. But when they went back to their hotel

670
00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:06,000
or something which was very close to this house, and

671
00:37:06,039 --> 00:37:08,400
they were outside in like the little balcony area or

672
00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:10,480
something like that, they one of the friends they were

673
00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:12,880
with like in the distance saw and it could have

674
00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:15,400
been like any like secreature, which they acknowledge in the video,

675
00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:16,840
Like yeah, it could have been a secreature. But it

676
00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:18,559
was like we were talking about how we were waiting

677
00:37:18,639 --> 00:37:20,800
didn't see anything, and then we heard like a splashing

678
00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:24,519
of distance. I mean, what a coincidence? Right? Yeah? And

679
00:37:24,559 --> 00:37:26,639
they say, like we know, like what a coincidence. So

680
00:37:26,679 --> 00:37:28,880
we can't say for sure if it was or not

681
00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:32,159
a mermaid, but like so weird. So I don't know,

682
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:34,639
I don't know, but I mean, like so many people,

683
00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:37,719
so many cultures have like so like you know, mermaid stories.

684
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:41,199
I mean it's certainly, you know, a fascinating tale as

685
00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:47,280
I you're like fascinating my musasion eyebrowser can't handle it.

686
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:49,320
I have to stop talking to them. O, my god,

687
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:53,840
watch this all. But yeah, yeah, that was that was

688
00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:57,480
today's stories. I mean, let us know, it's just it's

689
00:37:57,519 --> 00:38:02,000
just fairy tales to everyone. You I wouldn't like discount

690
00:38:02,039 --> 00:38:05,840
the possibility of when confusing a creature in the ocean

691
00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:11,719
for mermaid, right, like like a certain colonizer did. Yeah exactly,

692
00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:14,039
And there's so much unknown about the ocean. Yeah, so

693
00:38:14,079 --> 00:38:16,960
I certainly wouldn't discount like seeing something that you like,

694
00:38:17,039 --> 00:38:19,639
there has to be something weird out there for sure. Yeah.

695
00:38:19,679 --> 00:38:22,199
So and I mean again it'd be super cool. I

696
00:38:22,199 --> 00:38:24,480
would have loved to become memor maid. Well, Discovery taught

697
00:38:24,519 --> 00:38:28,880
me that mermaids are real. Remember that that documentary from

698
00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:32,760
Discovery about the Mermaids. No, oh, it was a moment

699
00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:34,920
for a little bit, probably like ten years ago. I

700
00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:37,400
don't remember how long ago years ago. Maybe I'm not sure.

701
00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:39,639
I don't remember. I feel like somebody out there will

702
00:38:39,639 --> 00:38:42,599
know what I'm talking about. Probably I don't remember. Somebody

703
00:38:42,639 --> 00:38:46,199
will interesting. Okay, So, yeah, we have reached the end

704
00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:49,119
of this episode. I like, I love talking about them though.

705
00:38:49,519 --> 00:38:52,480
It was a really fun episode. Yeah, whether I believe

706
00:38:52,519 --> 00:38:55,880
it or not, I love reading about them. And I

707
00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:58,599
really hope that Canting Flaz did get to marry one

708
00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:01,360
me too. And so yeah, we'll take a little out

709
00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:08,800
of break here. Then welcome back for speaky recommendations, and

710
00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:12,960
we're back. Well, do you have speaky recommendations? I do. Okay,

711
00:39:13,119 --> 00:39:17,239
let me go to story graph because all my recommendations.

712
00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:21,920
I have been watching Supernatural because I love I love

713
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:28,119
Dean who doesn't right. I know it's very cheesy, but

714
00:39:28,559 --> 00:39:32,119
that's what I've been watching. And you've been sick. So yeah, okay,

715
00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:37,000
So I finished a few audiobooks. One of them was

716
00:39:37,159 --> 00:39:40,280
Hot Sweet Home and it was very short, so like

717
00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:42,239
I think that I don't know if anyone's looking for

718
00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:45,519
like a quick audio book. It was only three hours

719
00:39:45,519 --> 00:39:48,400
and forty one minutes, okay, and it was really cool

720
00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:52,599
because well, let me read the description so that people

721
00:39:52,639 --> 00:39:54,719
can hear. I actually don't know how to pronounce this

722
00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:58,360
word on the set of a kits Chi kit Chi.

723
00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:01,079
Do you know that word? No, I feel like you've

724
00:40:01,119 --> 00:40:06,800
probably heard it. It's spelled ki tshy. Now it means

725
00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:10,559
like cheesy, I think on the set of Kitchi reality

726
00:40:10,679 --> 00:40:14,079
TV that sounds wrong. Reality TV show stage scares transformed

727
00:40:14,119 --> 00:40:17,280
into unnerving reality in the Spooky Ghost Story for multiple

728
00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:20,079
Yogo and Nebula award winning authors or a pink sir,

729
00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:23,960
so then it does. When aimless twenty something Mara lands

730
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:26,599
a job as a night shift production assistant on her

731
00:40:26,639 --> 00:40:31,199
cousin's ghost honeying slash homemakeover reality TV show Haunt Sweet Home,

732
00:40:31,519 --> 00:40:34,760
she quickly determines her new role will require a healthy

733
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:39,159
attitude toward duplicity line. But as she hides fog machines

734
00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:42,880
in the woods and improvises scares to spook new homeowners,

735
00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:46,159
A series of unnerving incidents on set, and a creepy

736
00:40:46,239 --> 00:40:50,320
new coworker forced Mara to confront whether the person she's

737
00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:53,559
truly been deceiving and hiding from all along is herself

738
00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:56,760
Erie an empathetic haunt suet home as a multifaceted toupur

739
00:40:56,880 --> 00:41:01,239
natural exploration of finding your own way into adulthood, into yourself.

740
00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:05,079
And so it's like setting this reality TV show that

741
00:41:05,159 --> 00:41:09,280
her cousin does, and they're pretending to scare the residents,

742
00:41:09,639 --> 00:41:12,000
and so then they'll have clips of like the reality

743
00:41:12,079 --> 00:41:13,920
TV show of her cousin be like, well here we

744
00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:16,719
are back on the scene, and it was like different points.

745
00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:19,320
It's fun, it sounds fun. It sounds fun short listen.

746
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:21,760
The only reason I didn't give it like higher rating

747
00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:25,480
is because I feel like the ending was a little underwhelming,

748
00:41:25,679 --> 00:41:28,400
like I would have wanted, I don't know, something more exciting,

749
00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:31,719
but you know, not everything is is wrapped up that way.

750
00:41:32,079 --> 00:41:34,559
That's just me. I do think it's a fun listen though,

751
00:41:34,599 --> 00:41:36,199
so I do still recommend it, even though I didn't

752
00:41:36,239 --> 00:41:38,880
like how it ended. And then I also I listened

753
00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:40,880
to Tenders of Flesh. I won't get too much into

754
00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:43,039
it because I know it's one of our books. It's

755
00:41:43,119 --> 00:41:44,960
going to be one of our books. And I can't

756
00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:47,719
believe you listened to that before finishing. It was so

757
00:41:48,079 --> 00:41:51,079
good it was, but oh my god. Anyway, I guess

758
00:41:51,079 --> 00:41:53,840
I'll save my thoughts. I read it five stars, but

759
00:41:53,960 --> 00:41:57,639
it's so disturbing, like I would read it again. I've

760
00:41:57,679 --> 00:41:59,760
heard other people say they wouldn't read it again. I would,

761
00:42:00,039 --> 00:42:02,159
but I feel like it hits you and your core,

762
00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:06,760
you know, like questioning, like life. I don't know everything. Wow,

763
00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:09,880
I can't wait to read it. They told you that.

764
00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:11,719
I was like, I might become a vegetarian. I don't know.

765
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:14,519
You did tell me that. Yeah, it was intense. It

766
00:42:14,639 --> 00:42:17,079
was intense, and I don't know. There's just so no

767
00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:20,840
good noo. I will get more into it. Also, after

768
00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:23,840
I finished listening to Tenors of Flesh, I went back

769
00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:26,800
to Susto's episode of Tender as a Flesh and I

770
00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:30,840
listened to that, so I also recommend that. And then okay,

771
00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:35,480
the last one I read, I who have never known men,

772
00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:37,800
And it's not horror per se. It's more like sci

773
00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:40,639
fi I think, but it's very interesting, weird. I was

774
00:42:40,639 --> 00:42:44,239
gonna say you don't read sci fi. Yeah, I mean, well,

775
00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:47,039
it's like dystopian, which I like dystopian, So I guess

776
00:42:47,079 --> 00:42:49,480
that's not really sci fi. So I mischaracterized it. It's

777
00:42:49,559 --> 00:42:52,320
more dystopian than not, so let me read that description.

778
00:42:52,519 --> 00:42:54,679
A young woman is kept in a cage underground with

779
00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:58,239
thirty nine other females, guarded by armed men who never

780
00:42:58,360 --> 00:43:02,159
speak her crimes un remembered, if indeed there were crimes.

781
00:43:02,639 --> 00:43:04,960
The youngest of forty, a child with no name and

782
00:43:05,079 --> 00:43:08,840
no past. She survives for some purpose long forgotten in

783
00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:12,639
a world ravaged and wasted. In this reality where intimacy

784
00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:17,400
is forbidden, in the unrelenting sameness of the artificial days

785
00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:20,760
and nights, she knows nothing of books and time, of

786
00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:25,079
needs and feelings. Then everything changes, and nothing changes. A

787
00:43:25,199 --> 00:43:27,800
young woman who has never known men, a child who

788
00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:31,280
knows of no history before the bars and restraints, must

789
00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:34,480
now reinvent herself, piece by piece, in a place she

790
00:43:34,599 --> 00:43:36,719
has never been, and in the face of the most

791
00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:42,119
challenging and terrifying unknowns. Freedom fascinating. Okay, it was like

792
00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:45,760
unlike any other book I've ever read, and I feel

793
00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:49,559
like it's it's very character driven, like plot wise, like

794
00:43:49,679 --> 00:43:53,280
not much happens, like pretty much what I read is

795
00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:58,719
what happens. But still it's so interesting interesting, Okay, I

796
00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:01,119
read it it five out of five. I feel like

797
00:44:01,159 --> 00:44:03,800
it also kind of makes you question, like so much. Okay,

798
00:44:04,559 --> 00:44:06,079
I don't know, and yes, I don't know. It has

799
00:44:06,079 --> 00:44:10,360
like themes of like feminism, freedom, it's just super super interesting.

800
00:44:10,639 --> 00:44:12,519
I was like, don't ask me to describe a book.

801
00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:15,480
Have you seen that video? That real? And it's like

802
00:44:15,559 --> 00:44:17,719
when you sent it to me, Oh yeah I did,

803
00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:21,000
Yeah you did. Yeah, I forget what happens in the

804
00:44:21,079 --> 00:44:23,440
real something about like when someone asked you to just

805
00:44:23,519 --> 00:44:26,719
write a book, you just it's like read from current mines.

806
00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:29,039
He's like yeah, yeah, and it's about But then he's

807
00:44:29,039 --> 00:44:32,199
like halflight and he's like, I forgot and he told

808
00:44:32,239 --> 00:44:36,360
me something I will never forget. He said, shit, I

809
00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:38,159
forgot what he said, but he basically what he was

810
00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:41,239
getting at was the same. I need to be reading notes.

811
00:44:44,079 --> 00:44:47,440
I have made it to like chapter twenty something of Pinata.

812
00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:49,880
It's gotten so good. I can't wait to finish it.

813
00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:52,159
I got distracted because I had a lot of work

814
00:44:52,199 --> 00:44:55,079
to finish. So whenever I work, I just play New

815
00:44:55,119 --> 00:44:57,400
Girl in the background, and that's what I've been doing.

816
00:44:57,480 --> 00:45:00,199
I've been watching New Girl and non stop. Basically, first,

817
00:45:00,199 --> 00:45:02,440
I'm rewatching it. I hadn't rewatched it. I can't believe it.

818
00:45:02,559 --> 00:45:04,679
I've rewatched it like so many times already and I

819
00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:07,599
never finished it. So oh yeah, yeah, the last season

820
00:45:07,639 --> 00:45:10,519
I really like. Yeah, I'm I feel like I just

821
00:45:10,599 --> 00:45:13,840
should finish it. Yeah. So yeah, I don't have speaking recommendations,

822
00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:18,360
except I did discover a podcast called Lemos They look

823
00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:22,320
can No Exist. It in Spanish. It's also on YouTube. Ooh,

824
00:45:23,159 --> 00:45:25,320
let me add that to my rotation. Yeah, and it's

825
00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:27,760
just he's like this guy. He has guests and they're

826
00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:30,440
just telling scary stories and they're scarier because it's in

827
00:45:30,519 --> 00:45:33,840
Spanish and he's serious. Oh yeah, people don't like it

828
00:45:34,119 --> 00:45:38,239
retail scart, No, some people don't, some people do. We're

829
00:45:38,239 --> 00:45:41,679
not everyone's jam. They're very serious. So you know, sometimes

830
00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:45,079
I just need a serious scary listen. And uh, this

831
00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:48,079
is a good one. So obviously I've already talked about

832
00:45:48,079 --> 00:45:50,639
the other ones that I love. And if you want

833
00:45:50,679 --> 00:45:53,960
a little something to also laugh while like being scared,

834
00:45:54,119 --> 00:45:57,000
Moras Malitas is my other favorite. Yes, I've said it before,

835
00:45:57,239 --> 00:46:02,119
but yeah, ablemos, sorry blemos, look Noxiste. It's really good

836
00:46:02,199 --> 00:46:05,199
and Letty loves you. Former guests. Former guest on It

837
00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:10,840
spooktails her TikTok. She usually will translate things from Abiste

838
00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:14,039
for TikTok videos, so you know, if you don't know

839
00:46:14,119 --> 00:46:18,039
Spanish and you want to see what they talk about

840
00:46:18,079 --> 00:46:20,320
the stories they share, there's some very creepy ones she

841
00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:23,239
talks about. I'm on TikTok. That reminds me I really

842
00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:27,440
need to get back to doing tiktoks. But man's so yeah,

843
00:46:27,599 --> 00:46:32,320
that's my speaking recommendation, just that that podcast. And I'm

844
00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:36,320
almost done with the book Club. I'm in chapter ten, Wow,

845
00:46:36,679 --> 00:46:39,599
fucking loser. And I just got a hold that came through.

846
00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:44,039
Stop stop requesting other books. It's my last hold. That's

847
00:46:44,079 --> 00:46:48,159
not an audiobook. It's called Omecito. Have you heard of it? No,

848
00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:50,639
it sounds cute. Yeah, it's supposed to be really good.

849
00:46:51,639 --> 00:46:53,800
I'll send it to you later. Okay. Also, so behind

850
00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:56,239
on my podcast too, because I have like, hello audiobooks

851
00:46:56,719 --> 00:47:00,320
checked out right now. You need to calm down, you know,

852
00:47:00,800 --> 00:47:02,400
And you know what happens because I have stuff on

853
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:05,159
hold and then it comes through and then I'll get notified.

854
00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:07,880
That's something I like requested to be notified whenever the

855
00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:10,639
library gets it. Like, I'll get a notification immediately because

856
00:47:10,639 --> 00:47:12,400
I can't wait. I have no chill. I'm like, yes,

857
00:47:12,559 --> 00:47:14,079
check it out. And I think you have like five

858
00:47:14,159 --> 00:47:18,000
audiobooks right now. This is why the booklip is taken longer. No, no,

859
00:47:18,119 --> 00:47:20,519
it's not because when I listen to audiobooks that's different

860
00:47:20,559 --> 00:47:23,039
than reading. No, I meant because of your other books.

861
00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:27,679
Yes that, I will admit that. Yeah one, yes, yeah,

862
00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:28,639
you're right, you're right.

863
00:47:28,760 --> 00:47:28,960
Speaker 2: Yeah.

864
00:47:29,559 --> 00:47:32,000
Speaker 1: Oh, I guess some other things. We're trying to have

865
00:47:32,119 --> 00:47:36,159
a different costume on for every episode this month of October,

866
00:47:36,360 --> 00:47:42,519
our holy month of Halloween. Praise be Halleluijah. Yes, so

867
00:47:42,639 --> 00:47:45,360
that's just something fun. I thought you were done. That

868
00:47:45,519 --> 00:47:48,239
was my last one. Okay, that's just something fun we're

869
00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:52,000
doing for October, trying to do. We also have a

870
00:47:52,119 --> 00:47:55,199
fun episode plan with some of our fames, which you'll

871
00:47:55,199 --> 00:47:57,800
find out whenknocks out. We did an episode with week

872
00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:00,320
Ago that will be out later in October. Oh, I'm

873
00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:03,920
looking forward to that. Yeah. They're so funny. They are hilarious.

874
00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:06,840
I love them and I wish I could talk Spanish

875
00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:10,480
that cool. Yeah we can't. We're trying. I complained to

876
00:48:10,519 --> 00:48:11,679
my husband all the time, and I'm like, can you

877
00:48:11,800 --> 00:48:14,320
understand that my mom she was like a fressa and

878
00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:18,280
she didn't let us speak slaying spanishling nothing. So now

879
00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:21,079
now I don't know, like it's too late. Now I

880
00:48:21,119 --> 00:48:23,519
don't sound cool in Spanish, right, I can't. I can't

881
00:48:23,519 --> 00:48:25,599
say the thing words. But I also don't sound fressa.

882
00:48:26,599 --> 00:48:29,280
I just just sound what are you? What? Even are you?

883
00:48:29,679 --> 00:48:31,679
Dumb bitch? And They're like if you're American writing? And

884
00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:32,599
I'm like, I guess.

885
00:48:33,159 --> 00:48:33,360
Speaker 2: Yeah.

886
00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:36,480
Speaker 1: So that is our internal struggles I will always have.

887
00:48:37,039 --> 00:48:38,960
But yeah, we did an episode with them. I think

888
00:48:39,119 --> 00:48:41,800
mid October is when that is coming out. That was

889
00:48:41,840 --> 00:48:44,400
a lot of fun and yeah, just you know, I

890
00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:46,719
wish we had more time to plan more things for Halloween,

891
00:48:47,039 --> 00:48:48,920
but we don't. Like I wish we could do a

892
00:48:48,960 --> 00:48:50,840
movie night. I just have no time. I wish I

893
00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:53,400
could have gone to visit you, but yeah, that would

894
00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:55,719
have been the best. We will have a Patron episode

895
00:48:55,719 --> 00:48:57,159
at some point this month as well, where we're just

896
00:48:57,199 --> 00:48:59,920
gonna read scary stories to each other. Carmen it's gonna

897
00:48:59,920 --> 00:49:02,960
have a murder Mystery party. Are you still doing that? Yeah,

898
00:49:03,079 --> 00:49:07,239
I am, and I've tried. So. I've been building a

899
00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:10,679
coffin out of styrofoam. I think they're called the phone boards.

900
00:49:10,679 --> 00:49:13,400
It's like insulation, like big boards that you I supposed

901
00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:15,360
to inslat your house whatever. I've been trying to record

902
00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:19,000
a little bit of my process. I'm really bad at recording.

903
00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:21,679
I would do my best because I do want to

904
00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:23,880
put together well, I want Christina to help me put

905
00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:26,920
together put together a video for a Patreon of my

906
00:49:28,000 --> 00:49:31,400
vampire theme murder Mystery party. Yes, so that is a plan,

907
00:49:31,519 --> 00:49:33,960
but I have no promises there and I don't know.

908
00:49:34,039 --> 00:49:36,239
I have to figure out how to do a like

909
00:49:36,719 --> 00:49:38,880
movie night, where to stream it, And went on to

910
00:49:39,199 --> 00:49:41,599
promise and really want to. I did, but it wasn't

911
00:49:41,639 --> 00:49:44,159
working and I was very mad, and I haven't done

912
00:49:44,199 --> 00:49:49,000
one since that didn't work last two years ago. It

913
00:49:49,199 --> 00:49:51,239
was like two years ago, No, it really was. Yeah,

914
00:49:51,519 --> 00:49:53,599
I though I don't know, no promises because I also

915
00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:58,360
volunteered to do a fun run with my child, although

916
00:49:58,440 --> 00:50:00,639
that one's this Friday, so that's gonna take a lot

917
00:50:00,679 --> 00:50:03,159
of time. I did, however, volunteer to be one of

918
00:50:03,199 --> 00:50:06,800
the trunk retreat cars for the school's trunk retreat. Oh,

919
00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:09,400
we better clean out your car. Well, yeah, obviously. So

920
00:50:09,519 --> 00:50:10,880
that's why I said my month is going to be

921
00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:13,360
very busy because I have to clean my van. Halloween

922
00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:16,800
spooky season is a busy time because there's so much

923
00:50:16,840 --> 00:50:20,760
spooky activities. But yeah, there's so many spooky season activities.

924
00:50:21,119 --> 00:50:23,880
It's probably the best month ever. It really is. There's

925
00:50:23,920 --> 00:50:26,880
so much to do. But yeah, I'm thinking of Scooby

926
00:50:26,920 --> 00:50:30,519
Doo theme for my trunk retreat van. Ooh, and yet

927
00:50:30,559 --> 00:50:33,480
it's a van that's perfect. I will post pictures, but

928
00:50:33,559 --> 00:50:36,880
I'm hoping to find enough cardboard to paint the mystery machine.

929
00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:40,519
I have thoughts. I have thoughts. I will post pictures.

930
00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:44,679
Will it be executed, We'll see, We'll find out. We'll see,

931
00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:48,400
because again, a bitch has adhd and I have grand

932
00:50:48,480 --> 00:50:50,320
plans and only like half of them. I feel you,

933
00:50:53,079 --> 00:50:55,679
but I want to. I want to. The thought is there?

934
00:50:56,559 --> 00:51:02,639
The thought is the thought is there? Stop it looks

935
00:51:02,679 --> 00:51:08,400
funnier because I'm mussage. I'm just gonna kind of click

936
00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:12,920
on that. It's gonna be a new gift okay, that

937
00:51:13,079 --> 00:51:15,679
