  • Summary

  • We discuss the nine-part Netflix series, Monster: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story (2024), or Ryan Murphy’s spin on the oft-dramatized retelling of the 1989 murder of Jose and Kitty Menendez in their Beverly Hills home. We talk about this homoerotic iteration of the Menendez brothers, as the series positions them as thirst traps, in a sensationally-charged–and borderline histrionic–retelling of the murderous duo’s crime of passion, seemingly rooted in drama and trauma. CW | TW: This episode discusses murder, molestation, sexual abuse, rape, and implied incest. Listener discretion is advised.
