And 55 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,639 Speaker 2: a lot of the stories that you tell are these 56 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 2: borderland RGV stories, And so I love that you rep 57 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 2: the RGV. I love that you're telling stories from the RGV. 58 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 2: How did you what inspired you to move in that 59 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 2: direction and put this podcast together? 60 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 6: Yeah? 61 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:19,079 Speaker 5: Well, first and foremost, I have to say boot on 62 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 5: nine five six RGV excellence all the way. But I mean, 63 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 5: these stories, they were just so entrenched in my upbringing. 64 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:30,800 Speaker 5: Like after the barbecues, someone's THEA was always saying, I 65 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,359 Speaker 5: saw the devil last night, I saw the devil last week. 66 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 5: There was a lady in the backyard. We saw an 67 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 5: all black rooster. It was always something right, and if 68 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 5: it wasn't that, it was your cousins or your friends 69 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 5: at a sleepover. And I think that kind of culture 70 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 5: seeped its way into our classroom as well. I have 71 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 5: this book that I reference in a lot of my episodes. 72 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 6: It's a book called. 73 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 5: Stories that Must Not Die and it's full of fables 74 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 5: and folk tells that were collected along the Texas Mexico border. 75 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 5: And they would read this book to us in elementary school. 76 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 5: And I still have the actual physical copy of this 77 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 5: book from my elementary classroom. But it had stories like Laorna, 78 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:16,479 Speaker 5: the Girl who danns with the Devil, La Lichusa, so 79 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 5: these ghost stories that they were reading to little kids, right, 80 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 5: but at the end of each story, and they were 81 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 5: in English and Spanish, and at the end of each 82 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 5: story there was also a set of questions, so they 83 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 5: were kind of teaching us reading comprehension and introducing critical 84 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 5: thinking to us by way of scary stories. So it's 85 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 5: just always kind of stuck with me, like it's been 86 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 5: a part of my life since I was very very young. 87 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 1: I love this story about you learning and reading these 88 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:50,039 Speaker 1: stories in elementary school because it shows how entrenched these 89 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,920 Speaker 1: stories are this folklore is in the culture. So can 90 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:58,160 Speaker 1: you share with us what is a ghost story or 91 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 1: a fable or folklore? And you grew up hearing you 92 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,479 Speaker 1: already mentioned a couple, but let's talk about one of 93 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:05,559 Speaker 1: them for sure. 94 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 5: So one of the earlier ones that I remember that 95 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 5: isn't Lena, because I feel like that is like the 96 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 5: go to right away for everyone. I tell people, she's 97 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 5: like the Beyonce of spirits, right like everybody knows who 98 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:18,720 Speaker 5: she is, everybody knows her story. 99 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 6: But another one that was really popular in my. 100 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 5: Upbringing was the story of the girl who downs at 101 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,280 Speaker 5: the Devil, And I think that one's very interesting because 102 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 5: it is the quintessential Sousto story. There are so many 103 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,160 Speaker 5: different versions of it, and everybody swears that it happened 104 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,480 Speaker 5: in their neck of the woods. So there's a version 105 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:38,119 Speaker 5: from San Antonio that happened at a bar called Camaroncito. 106 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:42,039 Speaker 5: But growing up, I heard that it happened in McCallan, Texas, 107 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 5: which is a city in the valley, at a bar 108 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:50,480 Speaker 5: called Boccaccio three thousand and it was just like this 109 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 5: discotheque in I think seventy nine. And the story is 110 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 5: that this really young, pious woman decided to break the 111 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,559 Speaker 5: rules and to go to a dance for the first time, 112 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:05,160 Speaker 5: against her parents' wishes. And while she was out there, 113 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 5: she met this handsome stranger. Nobody knew who this man was, 114 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 5: but he approached her and he asked her to dance. 115 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 6: And as they're dancing. 116 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 5: She's kind of hypnotized by him until she hears the 117 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:20,839 Speaker 5: screams and the shrieks of the crowd around them, And 118 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 5: as she starts looking to see what are they screaming 119 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,480 Speaker 5: at what's happening, they're pointing at them, and she realizes 120 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 5: they're pointing at his feet, and. 121 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 6: They're saying his feet, his feet. 122 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,039 Speaker 5: Look and she looks down and she sees that he 123 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:35,039 Speaker 5: has one goat's hoof and one chicken's talon, and she 124 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 5: realizes that she's been dancing with the devil the whole time. 125 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 5: And so in this version, or in the version that 126 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:45,280 Speaker 5: I remember hearing growing up, is that he kind of 127 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 5: just disappeared. He vanished into some black smoke and it 128 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:52,799 Speaker 5: smelled like sulfur, and that this young woman was left 129 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 5: with burn marks on her body from where he was 130 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,599 Speaker 5: holding and caressing her. Some people say that she lived. 131 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 5: Some people say that she did not. But again, there's 132 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 5: different versions of this story. It's told in so many 133 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:09,039 Speaker 5: different places, And for me, I think it's extra interesting 134 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 5: because growing up, the story was listen to your parents, 135 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 5: or something bad can happen to you, right, And as 136 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 5: I got older, I realized that the one through line, 137 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 5: no matter who was telling the story, no matter what 138 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 5: was different, the one detail that remained the same, was 139 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 5: that it happened to a young woman. And so I 140 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 5: started to think, well, that's interesting. Why are we telling 141 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 5: this story to classrooms of second third graders And it's 142 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 5: always a young woman being punished for trying to have 143 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 5: a night of fun, right, And then when you think 144 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 5: about the reality of the world, the reality is is 145 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,239 Speaker 5: that it is a much more dangerous place for women 146 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 5: and for fems, and so it's kind of one of 147 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 5: those unnecessary evils that we do want to tell this 148 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 5: story to the young women and girls in our classrooms 149 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 5: and say, hey, unfortunately, that's the way the world is 150 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,040 Speaker 5: right now. But I invite people to have that conversation 151 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 5: to kind of dissect to that, because a scary story 152 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 5: can be more than just a scary story. 153 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 3: Don't go anywhere. 154 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 1: Lookomotives, we'll be right back. 155 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 2: And we're back with more of our episode. I love 156 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 2: that you point that out, and I think we know 157 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 2: that in a lot of film and television, the women 158 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 2: are always the victim of a kidnapping, the victim of 159 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 2: some horrible crime. There's a lot of crimes against women 160 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 2: that are made into entertainment. In what you're talking about here, 161 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 2: it's a cautionary tale of what could happen to you 162 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 2: if you step out into the night and you dance 163 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:44,680 Speaker 2: with a handsome stranger. And I'm really curious, why do 164 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 2: you think that there are so many of these stories, 165 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:50,080 Speaker 2: specifically in this region of the world, in the RGV 166 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,439 Speaker 2: and along the border. What is it about this place 167 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,679 Speaker 2: that is just like ripe for these types of stories. 168 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 5: I always attribute that to the resiliency of our culture 169 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:05,440 Speaker 5: and our people. Right. For example, the story of that 170 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 5: is a centuries old story. There are versions of that 171 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 5: story that go back like so so far back, and 172 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 5: I kind of use that as an example of the 173 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:22,120 Speaker 5: power of transformation, the power of survival, because even when 174 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 5: you think of some of these stories like Luchusa, for example, 175 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 5: there's a physical transformation there of a witch to an owl, 176 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 5: a person to an animal. So there's this idea of 177 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 5: transformation that floats around. But I think it's also representative 178 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 5: of how we are culture and we as a people, 179 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 5: how we have also had to change in certain ways 180 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 5: to survive, and these stories are just kind of like 181 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 5: a representation of that in a way, they. 182 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 6: Tell the story of our survival. 183 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 1: They also teach us something about I like this lens 184 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 1: of looking at it as a cautionary tale and looking 185 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:02,600 Speaker 1: at it from the perspective of maybe there's like a 186 00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 1: patriarchal lens, you know in the telling of this story, 187 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 1: where it's always the young girl that something happens to her, 188 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 1: and it's used as a cautionary tale to scare young 189 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 1: girls to kind of act right, to get in line. 190 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 3: And if we think about the way. 191 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 1: Religion is also used as a type of fear mongering, Right, 192 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 1: you have to do the right thing. If not, like Diablo, 193 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 1: if not, you're going to hell. There's something right, And 194 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 1: so I like thinking about like, there's so much depth 195 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:34,560 Speaker 1: to these stories. It's not just spooky and it's scary. 196 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 1: It's there's a culture within it. There's subcultures within this, 197 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 1: Like one folklore or this one story. 198 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, absolutely, And what are. 199 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 1: Some of the stories or what is an example of 200 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:52,080 Speaker 1: a story that you learned because of soustopod, either a 201 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:55,320 Speaker 1: story a guest brought or within your own research you 202 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:57,199 Speaker 1: learned that was new to you, because I know, you 203 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:00,120 Speaker 1: don't just cover the border, you also cover all of 204 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:03,359 Speaker 1: Latin America and Hispanic folklore and legends. 205 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:06,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, so initially it started that way, and then I 206 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:10,199 Speaker 5: started in doing my research finding versions of either those 207 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,960 Speaker 5: same stories from other parts of the diaspora that I 208 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 5: never thought maybe I'd have a connection with, or a 209 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:21,200 Speaker 5: completely different kind of story or cryptid or spirit, but 210 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:24,080 Speaker 5: some there was always some similarity some tie to them. 211 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 5: So definitely the stories or the culture that I cover 212 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 5: has it's widened in doing my research and doing this show. 213 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 5: One though that I was really interested to learn about, 214 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 5: and I've told this story live a lot because I 215 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:42,560 Speaker 5: think it's really impactful, is there's a story of this 216 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:46,960 Speaker 5: creature called Bucci, and it's an a HOAt word for 217 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:50,079 Speaker 5: this creature that is known to be a blood sucking 218 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 5: shape shifter and anybody can be Albucci. It's like a 219 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 5: like similar to like a werewolf. You know this person 220 00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 5: can transform into this thing when they need to feed. 221 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 5: And this is a story that comes out of San 222 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 5: Pedro in the state of flash Gala in Mexico. And 223 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,680 Speaker 5: essentially the story is that overnight there were seven infant 224 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:17,079 Speaker 5: deaths in this very rural area of Mexico in the sixties, 225 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 5: and people started blaming essentially this creature. They said, it's 226 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:27,080 Speaker 5: a Tlauidpucci epidemic. We've been attacked by the Tlauidpucci. 227 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 6: And so. 228 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:33,440 Speaker 5: The reason I think that this story is extremely impactful 229 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 5: is because it's based in a real event. So at 230 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:40,200 Speaker 5: the time, there were these anthropologists that were doing a 231 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 5: study of these rural townships in Tlashkala, and while they 232 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 5: were there, that event happened, those those infanticides happened. So 233 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 5: the focus of their research shifted to how this community 234 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 5: was now processing not only this very heinous act but 235 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 5: also their trauma by way of supernaturalism. And so again 236 00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:10,680 Speaker 5: you go into it thinking, oh, this is a really 237 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 5: scary story, and then you keep reading or you keep 238 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:15,560 Speaker 5: listening or watching, and you discover that this is about 239 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 5: so much more. I actually have a book about that 240 00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:27,080 Speaker 5: as well that it's called Bloodsucking shape shifter, and it 241 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:31,720 Speaker 5: details in these anthropologists. In this book, they detail everything 242 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:35,680 Speaker 5: from the events in that evening leading up to before 243 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:41,080 Speaker 5: their sleep, to the traditional layouts of their homes, to 244 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 5: the traditional or the typical sleeping patterns of the families. 245 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:49,560 Speaker 5: They detail everything in there is a full d depth 246 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 5: sociological study of this community. And then of course it 247 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 5: also goes into testimony and observations of what these people 248 00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:01,199 Speaker 5: were saying, because immediately after that more, when they discovered 249 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 5: what happened this small community, they were in a panic, 250 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:08,320 Speaker 5: they were in disarray, but the one thing that they 251 00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:10,560 Speaker 5: were all kind of agreeing on was it was this monster. 252 00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:11,559 Speaker 6: It was this creature. 253 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 1: We hope you're enjoying this interview. 254 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 2: Stay tuned, we're back, and we hope you enjoyed the 255 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:31,160 Speaker 2: rest of the interview. Very fascinating. You recently sat down 256 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 2: with doctor emily's Arka from PBS Digital Studios Monstrum and 257 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 2: you talked about Lala Chusa. You also on your website 258 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:46,240 Speaker 2: reading about how you are referring to yourself as a folklorist, yes, 259 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 2: and as your title as your honorific but that you 260 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 2: had a little bit of hesitation at one point about 261 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 2: like dubbing yourself in that way. I love the term. 262 00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:57,240 Speaker 2: So can you talk to us about what that term 263 00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:01,320 Speaker 2: means to you and how you identify as a folklorist 264 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 2: and how that shows up in your work. Yeah? 265 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 5: Absolutely, so for me, the being a folklorist, it's more 266 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 5: about an act. So I've said many times before, also 267 00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 5: that my susto in my show. It's my contribution to 268 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 5: the tradition of oral storytelling. It's something that's existed for 269 00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:24,200 Speaker 5: a very long time. I haven't created anything new. I'm 270 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 5: participating in this tradition and I'm yes putting my own 271 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 5: twist on it. I'm bringing it to the world of podcasting. 272 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:36,640 Speaker 5: But yeah, it's more about action. Like I mentioned earlier, 273 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 5: a lot of these stories to me represent resiliency and 274 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:44,680 Speaker 5: power and survival, and so to me, being a folk 275 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 5: lost is about participating in that act by way of 276 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 5: continuing the telling of these stories. 277 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:55,600 Speaker 2: Do you have family members that come to you and say, aiden, 278 00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 2: can you come over and tell us a story? Like 279 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:01,240 Speaker 2: tell us a scary story? Is are you somebody that 280 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:04,880 Speaker 2: people are looking to to be a storyteller in real time? 281 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 6: It's definitely happened. 282 00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:10,640 Speaker 5: I've been like like a party or something, and then 283 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:13,960 Speaker 5: you know, people slowly kind of trickle off for the 284 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:16,840 Speaker 5: evening and when there's maybe like four or five of us, 285 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 5: I'm telling you, it always happens. 286 00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 6: Someone's like I heard a. 287 00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 5: Noise in my house last week, and then it just 288 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:28,080 Speaker 5: starts that way. So I definitely ended up kind of 289 00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 5: have everyone sitting around and telling a story. I will 290 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,960 Speaker 5: say that some people in my family are like my 291 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 5: core immediate family, and me as well, it's a misconception 292 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:42,760 Speaker 5: about me. We're kind of scaredy cats. So like my 293 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 5: sister and my mom, for example, will tell me that 294 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,440 Speaker 5: they'll be listening and they have to just cut it 295 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 5: off in the middle of a story and say, we're 296 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 5: gonna come back to this later. 297 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:51,600 Speaker 6: And I tell them, how do you think I. 298 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 5: Feel reading about this or recording it that I don't 299 00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 5: record after dark if I'm going to be recording a 300 00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 5: story because I don't want to put myself. 301 00:16:59,000 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 6: In that position. 302 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:02,960 Speaker 3: That's hilarious. I love that. 303 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:09,159 Speaker 1: So question about your family and the podcast and the 304 00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:11,159 Speaker 1: stories that you grew up with the stories that you 305 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:15,200 Speaker 1: share on the podcast, was there ever any tension between 306 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:19,360 Speaker 1: you and your family where one, for example, I wasn't 307 00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:21,480 Speaker 1: allowed to watch scary movies as a kid because my 308 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:24,879 Speaker 1: dad was like, you're welcoming something into the house, so 309 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:28,360 Speaker 1: you're not allowed to watch any of that because so literally, 310 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 1: So I'm wondering if you ever grew up with any 311 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:34,560 Speaker 1: of that tension and either how that contributed to the 312 00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:37,879 Speaker 1: making of the show or maybe inspired you gave you 313 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:39,920 Speaker 1: ideas in the making of the show. 314 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:44,359 Speaker 5: Yeah, I feel like growing up, I can't remember that 315 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 5: I watched too many like scary movies or horror movies 316 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 5: growing up. But again for us, it was these like 317 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:54,199 Speaker 5: the tellings of these stories. So we would talk about it, 318 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:56,199 Speaker 5: you know, all the time. But when we'd go to 319 00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:58,159 Speaker 5: the mall, I my mom wouldn't want me to go 320 00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:01,399 Speaker 5: in a hot topic because essen was that the how 321 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:03,399 Speaker 5: topic is this? At the nas so like I couldn't 322 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 5: I wasn't allowed to shop there for a very long time. 323 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 5: But I think also, and this is one of the 324 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:12,679 Speaker 5: reasons that I attribute so many Latina people being into 325 00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:15,840 Speaker 5: the paranormal and the macab is because so many of 326 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 5: us are also raised Catholic. And I say this all 327 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 5: the time, the Catholicism, it's inherently horror. It's inherently spooky 328 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 5: because you go to meet with your coven, your church 329 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:30,879 Speaker 5: once a week, you do all of these rituals, you 330 00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:35,400 Speaker 5: say these spells, prayers to a deity who, by the way, 331 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 5: is hanging up on the wall in front of you, 332 00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 5: splayed out like. That is horror right there, that's a 333 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 5: horror story. 334 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:45,439 Speaker 1: We were just talking about this the other day about 335 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 1: how Catholics are the most. 336 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:49,280 Speaker 3: Pagan of Christians. 337 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's so campy, first of all, and also it's 338 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:56,360 Speaker 1: so witchy, like the blood and body. 339 00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 2: Are you serious? 340 00:18:57,720 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 1: Are you for real? 341 00:18:58,640 --> 00:18:59,080 Speaker 3: Right now? 342 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:00,719 Speaker 6: Totally exactly. 343 00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:02,639 Speaker 5: There's so much ritual and it's funny because it doesn't 344 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 5: even in there depending on which Catholic you are. 345 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 6: You're also getting your cards. 346 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 5: Read, and you have the VELAs at home, and it's 347 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:12,480 Speaker 5: not even just your lighting a vella of La Vire 348 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,520 Speaker 5: and you're lighting a vella of Don Pedro Caramio and 349 00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:17,639 Speaker 5: you're writing your name and your birthday and putting it 350 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:20,680 Speaker 5: under the candle, right Like, there's so much ritual that 351 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:25,680 Speaker 5: stems from Catholicism, which again that's that is a whole 352 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:27,920 Speaker 5: other that could be its own episode about like how 353 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 5: Bruhidia modern bluhidia is basically are are very traditional what 354 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:38,119 Speaker 5: we would assume as indigenous practices, but they've they've taken 355 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:43,480 Speaker 5: on these Catholic motifs and iconography and verbiage. Right. 356 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:46,879 Speaker 2: Absolutely, we talk about it all the time. It's so 357 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:50,439 Speaker 2: macabre and there's a reason why, Like I think a 358 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 2: lot of people who went to Catholic school really get 359 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:56,200 Speaker 2: into matters of like be a cult. Like we're just 360 00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:59,159 Speaker 2: primed for it. We're just you know, we're prepped for 361 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 2: that sort of a thing. I also I wanted to 362 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 2: ask you too about the name of your show about soustal. 363 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:06,080 Speaker 6: So it's a. 364 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,679 Speaker 2: Great name and it means like, you know, like a 365 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 2: fright right, like to catch a fright, And so I 366 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 2: seem to recall and correct me if I'm wrong, But 367 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:17,639 Speaker 2: in listening to your show, you spoke more about the 368 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,359 Speaker 2: term and like the meaning that it has and why 369 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 2: you named your show that way. Can you share a 370 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,800 Speaker 2: little bit about that with our listeners. 371 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, for sure. 372 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:28,440 Speaker 5: So if anybody is unfamiliar it hasn't heard of it, 373 00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:31,480 Speaker 5: the words sustal, Yes, it's Spanish for fright. It's also 374 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:34,200 Speaker 5: a cultural illness. So there are many people and I 375 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:37,160 Speaker 5: grew up with this belief that after a big scare 376 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:40,880 Speaker 5: or something traumatic, that your soul can separate itself from 377 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 5: your body, and if this trauma is severe enough, the 378 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:50,199 Speaker 5: soul can also fragment. And there's different remedies based on 379 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:53,720 Speaker 5: which community you're speaking to and on the severity of 380 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 5: the soustal. 381 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 6: So for me, it was. 382 00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 5: Growing up, it was to have a spoonful of sugar 383 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:02,480 Speaker 5: in a glass of water, dissolve it, and you chug it. 384 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 5: And that's supposed too for other people in Mexico City. 385 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:10,439 Speaker 5: I have a friend from there, and she said, after 386 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:13,399 Speaker 5: the earthquake in twenty seventeen, it was really bad that 387 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 5: the food vendors were out in the street and they 388 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 5: were handing out bolos for free or the bread loaves 389 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 5: because that's their remedy for it. And then if it 390 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:26,160 Speaker 5: gets really severe and you need to see a professional 391 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 5: like gurandere or a bruja or someone, they can use 392 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 5: different sorts of ramas, the awa florida or whatever ritual 393 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 5: you know that they put into practice. 394 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:40,399 Speaker 6: So yeah, it was something that I grew up with. 395 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:43,439 Speaker 5: Like I said, like we had we had the remedy 396 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:47,160 Speaker 5: for susto, if we had ma de ojo. 397 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 6: It was a rubdown with an egg. 398 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:54,399 Speaker 5: And so when I was developing the show, I was 399 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:55,360 Speaker 5: trying to think of a title. 400 00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:56,359 Speaker 6: I was like, I don't know, I don't know what 401 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:56,800 Speaker 6: to call it. 402 00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:59,479 Speaker 5: And I think I was talking to my family about it, 403 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 5: and my mom she started, you know, telling stories. She 404 00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:04,000 Speaker 5: was like, oh, well, one time you had susto and 405 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:07,480 Speaker 5: then I was like wait, I was like, that's. 406 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:09,120 Speaker 6: It, that's it, that's it, that's it. 407 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 5: So yeah, it's just it's it's been that for five 408 00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:13,680 Speaker 5: years now. 409 00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 2: I love it. 410 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 3: I love that so much.

And after the last earthquake here in La, 414 00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:27,920 Speaker 1: at least this past summer, I saw this meme going 415 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 1: around where it was like someone throwing like a bunch 416 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:30,920 Speaker 1: of bolos. 417 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 3: And I was like, all of La right now. 418 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:36,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, Yeah, I love There's actual food science behind it too. 419 00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:38,720 Speaker 5: I read an article on it once about the food 420 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:43,680 Speaker 5: science of like glucose and when your body is stressed out, 421 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:46,119 Speaker 5: when you're having a susto, there's a chemical reaction in 422 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:49,680 Speaker 5: your body and there's like chemicals and hormones or whatever 423 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:51,399 Speaker 5: flooding from like one part of the brain to the 424 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:53,920 Speaker 5: other one part of the body. And so it's I'm 425 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:55,640 Speaker 5: not a doctor, I'm not a scientist, so I can't 426 00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 5: recall it as well.

A dwende is the 443 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 5: easiest way to describe it. It's like a gnome like 444 00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:48,639 Speaker 5: creature or a being. It's a very small humanoid being. 445 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:54,000 Speaker 5: Couple feet tall, even lesson of foot tall sometimes and 446 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 5: they're very mischievous, and so they're known to move. 447 00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:00,320 Speaker 6: Your stuff around or to hide your stuff. 448 00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:03,360 Speaker 5: Sometimes they are the theme that goes bump in the night, 449 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:08,120 Speaker 5: and they're not really dangerous per se, but again they're 450 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:13,199 Speaker 5: very mischievous. And so actually, a couple Halloweens ago, I 451 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:16,200 Speaker 5: was at home. I had already moved away from home, 452 00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:19,720 Speaker 5: but I was visiting, and I was helping my mom 453 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,720 Speaker 5: pass out candy because in my mom's neighborhood there's tons 454 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:26,040 Speaker 5: of trick or treaters and if anybody is curious about 455 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 5: where I get my love from, I don't know if 456 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:31,160 Speaker 5: she knows it or if she realizes it. But her house 457 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:34,680 Speaker 5: on Halloween is amazing. She has dolls hanging from her 458 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:37,280 Speaker 5: tree and like light up everything. 459 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 6: It's so fun. 460 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,159 Speaker 5: So she's passing out candy and my sister had just 461 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:44,359 Speaker 5: gotten a car a couple months prior and it was 462 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,439 Speaker 5: like an SUV, so we had the back open, we 463 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:50,760 Speaker 5: had music playing. We're sitting in there just hanging out, 464 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:53,639 Speaker 5: engaging with the tricker treaters, hanging out. 465 00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 6: Candy and whatnot. 466 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:58,479 Speaker 5: The night wraps up, it's fine, so we start packing 467 00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:03,159 Speaker 5: up everything, putting candy away inside, and we're going to 468 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 5: lock up the car and my mom asks me for 469 00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 5: the keys and I was like, well, I don't have them. 470 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:10,400 Speaker 5: I gave them to you, and she was like, no, 471 00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:12,600 Speaker 5: I gave them to you. I was like, well, we 472 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 5: probably put them down. So we start looking and it's dark, 473 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:16,879 Speaker 5: so we have our flashlights on and we're looking around 474 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 5: in the car like, okay, it's not in here. And 475 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 5: my sister's a virgo, if that says anything, so I 476 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:24,080 Speaker 5: was like, we need to find this before she gets back. 477 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 6: So we start looking under the car. Nothing. 478 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:29,159 Speaker 5: I'm like, shut the candy ball. Maybe you put them 479 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 5: in the bowl, and so we're like, dump all the 480 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:33,399 Speaker 5: candy out. We're rifling through it.

But I mean, of course, 483 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:42,119 Speaker 5: I mean naturally anyone would be right. But she was 484 00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:44,640 Speaker 5: upset and she was like, how could you lose my key? 485 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:45,000 Speaker 6: Right? 486 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:47,879 Speaker 5: And my only explanation was it was a dunde.

Life anti life hack. 505 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, wow. 506 00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:50,399 Speaker 1: I mean my when this story. I have a couple, 507 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 1: but one that I still still makes me scratch my 508 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:57,040 Speaker 1: head is that I had a fifty dollars bill on 509 00:26:57,480 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 1: my vanity and I was sitting there for a couple 510 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 1: of day and I kept looking at it and saying like, 511 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 1: I have to go put that in the bank, or 512 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:06,480 Speaker 1: I have to put that away, and then a couple 513 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 1: days later, the fifty dollars bill is now a twenty 514 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 1: dollar bill, and I was like, wait, no, no, this 515 00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 1: no right. So I'm like I asked my parents, like okay, 516 00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:21,719 Speaker 1: it's okay, did somebody swap my bill? It's fine if 517 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 1: you did. If you needed cash, all good, but just 518 00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 1: let me know. And they were like, no, we have 519 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:29,479 Speaker 1: not done that. We have not taken money from you. 520 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:32,639 Speaker 1: We haven't borrowed money. Like no, And I in my 521 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 1: mind a gwyn that was playing a trick on me. Yeah, 522 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:39,120 Speaker 1: because there's just no other explanation. We didn't have anybody 523 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:41,080 Speaker 1: coming into the house. There were no visitors. It was 524 00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:43,920 Speaker 1: just my parents. And so that is still like one 525 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:45,760 Speaker 1: of my stories to this day that makes me think, 526 00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:47,600 Speaker 1: like a Glen that was like playing a prank on me. 527 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:49,800 Speaker 2: And I believe you do have a dunda in your 528 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 2: house because we were shooting something at her house once. 529 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:56,119 Speaker 2: There was a bunch of us there. We had scripts 530 00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:59,439 Speaker 2: and there was a specific script that I maybe I 531 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:01,920 Speaker 2: put it down or we put it down on your 532 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:04,800 Speaker 2: dining room table, and then it was gone and we 533 00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:06,960 Speaker 2: were looking high and low for this script. We were 534 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,879 Speaker 2: looking for a long time and we could not find 535 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 2: it anywhere. And I totally believe you have a d 536 00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 2: Wenda in your house because it was just no like 537 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:18,000 Speaker 2: it was it was. It vanished, it vanished, and so 538 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 2: you have like a very clever wen there because he made. 539 00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:24,720 Speaker 3: Change made honestly, how did he go to. 540 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:25,480 Speaker 6: The drag show? 541 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:29,960 Speaker 5: I only need thirty dollars tips and drinks.

I will say though, that since a 544 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:38,200 Speaker 1: relative has left my house, I think that the duenda 545 00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:38,840 Speaker 1: is gone. 546 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:41,560 Speaker 2: But when they went with him, yes, his house. 547 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 3: It was, Yeah, it was his dlende. 548 00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 2: I'm screaming, possibly allegedly allegedly. 549 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:48,600 Speaker 5: You need to ask him if he's been missing stuff 550 00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:49,920 Speaker 5: or his stuff isn't moving around? 551 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 2: All right, I will I love it. My grandma definitely 552 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 2: has a d Wende. And it's funny because my grandma's 553 00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:58,600 Speaker 2: dwen that we talk about it openly, like it's like 554 00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 2: a family member, you know, because she's always talking about 555 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 2: her when they like there's it's just like a matter 556 00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:07,560 Speaker 2: of fact, you know. I think there's a little bit 557 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:09,600 Speaker 2: like you know, I think she's being forgetful and she 558 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 2: misplaces things. But He's a constant factor, and I it 559 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,600 Speaker 2: for school. I'm writing a short film and it's like 560 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 2: a little bit of a horror short and it's called 561 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 2: Dwhende and it's my sister made me like a little 562 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:27,840 Speaker 2: Dwende puppet head, So we're imagining what it might look like. 563 00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:30,719 Speaker 2: And months and months ago before I started writing the script, 564 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:34,600 Speaker 2: I did listen to your t Whende episode for research purposes, 565 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 2: and I learned so many things, Like I didn't realize 566 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 2: that in some areas the when this can actually be 567 00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 2: quite violent and scary and like attack old people or 568 00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:48,360 Speaker 2: kidnapped children. And I think maybe the ones that we've 569 00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 2: grown up knowing about or living with have been a 570 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 2: little more benign and a little bit more like tricksters. 571 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:56,560 Speaker 2: So I was curious too about that side of the 572 00:29:56,560 --> 00:30:00,880 Speaker 2: when this that more nefarious, more violent. I guess nature 573 00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:01,800 Speaker 2: that some of them have. 574 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, so there's this kind of I noticed themes with 575 00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 5: these different kinds of entities that I cover, and so 576 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:13,200 Speaker 5: one of my favorites is the cryptid fems. So there's 577 00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 5: always this kind of like women or fem spirits, and 578 00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:18,080 Speaker 5: it's usually about like vengeance and revenge. 579 00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 6: And I'm always on their side. And then there's. 580 00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 5: Another area where there are these kind of protectors of 581 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:27,160 Speaker 5: nature and the when the stories that. 582 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:30,280 Speaker 6: I found where they were on the more. 583 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:33,560 Speaker 5: Violent or dangerous side was they were doing it in 584 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:38,280 Speaker 5: service of or in protection of nature or like forests. 585 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 5: And so it's said that if you go into a forest, 586 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:46,440 Speaker 5: if you're disrespectful, if you're causing trouble anything to damage 587 00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 5: the nature, that's when they kind of come out and 588 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:50,680 Speaker 5: they're like, all right, well, now you've got to pay 589 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:53,880 Speaker 5: up because you're you know, you're being rude out here 590 00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:56,000 Speaker 5: and this is our home, this is your home. 591 00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:56,800 Speaker 6: Respect it right. 592 00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:01,840 Speaker 5: One story that they can up in after I covered 593 00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:04,640 Speaker 5: them early on was the story of I don't know 594 00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 5: if you remember those children that survived a plane crash 595 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:13,520 Speaker 5: in the Amazon Amazon jungle. Okay, So their grandmother, after 596 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:17,800 Speaker 5: they were found, came forward and she said that her 597 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 5: belief was that a duende was helping them because on 598 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:24,560 Speaker 5: the flip side, those lendas that are dangerous to people 599 00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 5: who are quote being bad, that they can either lure 600 00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:31,200 Speaker 5: people into the forest deeper into it and get them 601 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 5: more lost, or they can help them. And so that 602 00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 5: she said that in this case like the Duenda that 603 00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:41,280 Speaker 5: they encountered helped them find their way because they traveled. 604 00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 5: I think it was it wasn't what we would say 605 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:46,720 Speaker 5: is like very long. It wasn't a very long distance. 606 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:51,120 Speaker 5: But in the Amazon jungle it's extremely it's it's extremely 607 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:54,040 Speaker 5: dangerous just to be out there right without anything really, 608 00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:57,440 Speaker 5: but then to be moving through it is even more dangerous. 609 00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:00,160 Speaker 5: And this was a group of kids, a very young kids, 610 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,840 Speaker 5: and so the fact that they survived was this like miracle. 611 00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 5: And so that's why then I think the grandmother came 612 00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:08,080 Speaker 5: forward and said, no, there was a dlenda that helped them, 613 00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 5: and we thank the forest. We show it all our 614 00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:14,840 Speaker 5: gratitude and love for returning our children to us. So 615 00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:16,840 Speaker 5: again it's kind of one of those like I think 616 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:19,320 Speaker 5: that the Dundas are very you know, they're like us. 617 00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 6: You know, they're they're able to. 618 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:22,960 Speaker 5: Make up their minds about people and then to decide 619 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:24,800 Speaker 5: how they want to treat those people. 620 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 2: Gave me chills, I have chill. 621 00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:29,080 Speaker 3: Yes, that gave me chills. 622 00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:29,440 Speaker 1: Wow. 623 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:30,320 Speaker 6: Yeah, it was a great. 624 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:32,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, that one's a great like a really I mean, 625 00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:34,800 Speaker 5: it's of course tragic that that ever happened to those kids, 626 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:37,880 Speaker 5: but it's also so lovely that they were that they survived. 627 00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 2: Oh truly, Wow, I guess to to, Uh, we're coming 628 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:50,640 Speaker 2: towards the end of our interview here, but is there 629 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 2: a creature, a story, a folklore that you want to 630 00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:57,640 Speaker 2: show a little bit more love too that you think 631 00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:01,040 Speaker 2: is maybe undertold, underrated, not an people know about it, 632 00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:02,840 Speaker 2: but maybe should look into it. 633 00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:05,960 Speaker 6: Absolutely, Oh my god, there's so many. 634 00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 5: One that I did recently that I thought was really 635 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 5: really cool was the story of Again this falls into 636 00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:15,480 Speaker 5: the cryptid femmes kind of category. It's the story of 637 00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:19,320 Speaker 5: this spirit called latak Nuda. And so the story that 638 00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 5: there's two really popular versions. The one that I covered 639 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:24,360 Speaker 5: or that I did the narrative part of in my 640 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 5: episode was it's the story of this young woman who 641 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 5: was going to meet up with her boyfriend with her lover, 642 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:37,080 Speaker 5: and when she went to meet up with him, a 643 00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:39,600 Speaker 5: cab was distracted by her. 644 00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:41,560 Speaker 6: They were checking her. 645 00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:46,000 Speaker 5: Out, and they crashed into her boyfriend and they killed him. 646 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:48,560 Speaker 5: And so the story is that you know, she ended 647 00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:52,320 Speaker 5: up passing as well, and that now she kind of 648 00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:55,280 Speaker 5: roams the streets of hondudas it's said to happen there 649 00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:58,920 Speaker 5: and she stops for a taxi ride, and when they 650 00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:02,480 Speaker 5: pick her up, they go to their she gives them 651 00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:05,840 Speaker 5: a destination they drive, and that if they are able 652 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:08,680 Speaker 5: to make it to their destination without looking back at her, 653 00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:12,319 Speaker 5: without being distracted, that at most she'll vanish and she 654 00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:16,400 Speaker 5: leaves the center or the fragrance of perfume, and that 655 00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:18,640 Speaker 5: if they are distracted, and if they keep looking back 656 00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:21,799 Speaker 5: at her, she has a knife and she kills them. 657 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:23,319 Speaker 6: And so that was. 658 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:27,160 Speaker 5: One version, and then another version of that, the same 659 00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 5: kind of high heel.
