Julianna, despite speaking fluent Spanish, struggles throughout the tale of Indigenous Venezulan goddess Maria Lionza. Sabryna tells the very strange story of Chilean water and earth snakes. With lots of pop culture references (including old Tumblr memes), this is a goofy, but informative, episode on Latin American mythology.
