Returning from its month off for the summer, the Folklore Podcast takes to the water with an episode on the folklore of the mermaid. From Cornish folk tales to Slavic undead, from TV mockumentaries to outright hoaxes and all points in between, podcast creator and host Mark Norman offers a look at the nice, and not so nice aspects of the mer-creature, both male and female.

Thank you so much for the Zennor story. Might I ask you for your source? I write roleplaying games, and over on my blog I'm working through Robert Hunt's book on Cornwall, pi9cking out material. I recently did his chapter on mermaids, and he mentions Zeenor, but doesn't have this myth.
