Crime & Spirits: A True Crime & Cocktail Podcast

108-Deadly Beauties: Sirens, Mermaids & Harpies Explained

From sultry sea songs to sky-shattering screams, this episode dives into the tangled myths of Sirens, Mermaids, and Harpies. Are Sirens really just Mermaids with a bad attitude? Were Harpies always just flying nightmares- or something more like divine retribution? Join us as we trace their transformations through literature, art, and folklore, and uncover what these creatures reveal about ancient views of femininity, danger, and desire. We'll bust some myths, spill the sea tea, and unpack why these ladies get such a bad rap. Mythology has never been this dramatic (or this loud).

106-The Heiress Who Wasn't-Anna Delvey's High Society Hustle

She wasn't rich. She wasn't German royalty. But she was the queen of scams- at least for a little while.

We'll unpack her rise, her hustle, her courtroom fashion moments, and how she turned a con into a cultural moment. Was she a criminal mastermind or just a girl boss gone rogue? Designer lies, VIP connections, wire transfers that never came, and a Netflix deal that actually did. Tune in for the glam, the grift, and the gossip.
