In this episode we discuss the Netflix documentary "Judy Blume Forever" about the beloved author Judy Blume. Judy is probably best known for the 1970 book "Are you there God, it's me Margaret." This heart warming documentary chronicles Judy's life and how she became one of the most prolific writers of books for children, young adults and adults. The themes of her books are timeless and make anyone who reads them feel less alone in knowing that whatever they are going through in life is normal and their experiences are shared by everyone. Judy is a compassionate and resilient woman who stood up to her critics and supported the millions of young people who wrote to her by writing them back and in some cases becoming life long pen pals with them.

In preparation for the new documentary "Menendez + Menudo: Boys Betrayed" coming out May 2, 2023 on Peacock, in this episode we discuss the trials of brothers Erik and Lyle Menendez who were conviced of first degree murder in 1996 for the 1990 killings of their parents Jose and Kitty Menendez. Their first trial in 1993 ended in a mistrial after the brothers revealed their motive, that their father sexually, physically and emotionally abused them while their mother did nothing. After threatening to expose their father, they believed he would kill them before he let that happen. Because of a change in the law after the first trial and the judge severely curtailing the abuse evidence at the second trial, the brothers were convicted of first degree murder and sentenced to two consecutive life sentences.
Listen to next week's episode when we cover Menendez + Menudo: Boys Betrayed.

We close out season 4 of Love is Blind with our thoughts on the finale after learning who said "I will" and who said "I will not." The enthusiam for season 4 ended up breaking the internet so the planned "Live Reunion" was severely delayed, but it was a fun idea Netflix. But it was worth the wait as the couples left it all on the field. Except for Jackie and Josh who didn't have the guts to show up in person.
