Welcome or welcome back to Wicked, Weird, and Grim, your number one podcast for a trip through the history of the odd, haunting, and mystifying.

On today's episode we dive deep to talk about a particular obsession of ours....mermaids. We're so obsessed with these creatures as grown women that we've had to split this podcast into two parts due to how much we yapped. This week's episode is all about the sightings of mermaids globally and historically - from 1492 to today. These fishy, aquatic entities bewitch and bemuse us, and we can't wait to dive deep once more again into discussing them with you all.

On today's episode we dive deep to talk about a particular obsession of ours....mermaids. We're so obsessed with these creatures as grown women that we've had to split this podcast into two parts due to how much we yapped. This week's episode is on the folklore of mermaids globally and historically, while next week's episode is all about sightings - from 1492 to today. These fishy, aquatic entities bewitch and bemuse us, and we can't wait to dive deep into discussing them with you all.

Today we take you on a very weird (not so wicked or grim) adventure in the tiny town of Bishopville, South Carolina. From a lizard swamp cryptid scare (tourism life hack?) to an old man who self-proclaimed himself the Button King and left a museum of randomly decorated items with hundreds of thousands of buttons decorating them, this small town sure does have a lot of personality for only being home to ~3,000 people, give or take. Join us as we discuss this overly-roided lizard, his hijinks revolving automobiles, and how his ass compares to the Mothman’s). We even manage to work in a lizard-y song, which is just sooo quintessentially us. Get ready to get Wicked, Weird, and Grim with us to unravel the mystery of the Lizard Man of Scape Ore Swamp and discuss the even cuter Button King. Stick around at the end to hear our infamous bloopers.
