Gurvey's Law

The explosive philosophical debate pitting social justice vs. social distance continues to rage on, and Alan and Kerri Kasem jumped into the fray with an exclusive interview with world-renowned bioethicist, and New York University professor, Art Caplan. The table was set to talk about hotbed issues such as whether protestors should waive their rights to medical treatment should they contract COVID-19, as they willingly marched in public risking exposure to coronavirus, to what duties, if any, individuals have to make concerted efforts to not spread the virus to others, especially to those who might be physically compromised, to whether there ought to be limitations on free speech for anti-vaxxers, or others whose positions may lead to harmful public consequences.  And, that is just scratching the ethical surface of the Gurvey’s Law discussion! Then, the program shifts gears into the direction of conspiracy theorists and psychology. Joining the discussion was University of Delaware professor Joanne Miller, to talk about why conspiracy theories and those prescribing to the theories have become so popular in the COVID-19 era. Professor Miller explained her research on the issue and the psychology behind it all, as Professor Caplan weighed in on the ethical undertones.

As the story of George Floyd’s death continues to consume America, last weekend Alan and Kerri Kasem turned their attention to a very different civil rights story that is happening abroad. Their focus involves United Arab Emirates prime minister Sheikh Maktoum's missing daughters, princesses Latifa and Shamsa -- whose mysterious whereabouts are making headlines internationally, and, in turn, shedding new light on possible human rights violations within the royal court. Princess Latifa’s attorney David Haigh and her cousin Marcus Essabri joined Gurvey’s Law to discuss her alleged abduction by her father, and explained how a divorce battle between the Sheikh and his estranged wife Princess Haya is exposing the truth behind the ruler’s dark past. Where is Princess Latifa now and why? And how can the U.S. intervene? That was the Gurvey’s Law topic last Sunday and we have a starring cast that talked about it. Filled with international intrigue, you won’t want to miss Gurvey's Law on Sunday's at 5 p.m. on KABC-AM 790 TalkRadio.

While videoconferencing and homeschooling have flourished during the COVID-19 pandemic, so has something more contentious... lawsuits. Alan and Kerri Kasem interviewed the star players involved with a few high profile COVID-related cases that are sure to have far-reaching effects. First, attorney Noel Garcia and her client Akayla Miller joined the show to talk about their lawsuit against the California State University, Los Angeles system over tuition refunds. Then, renowned defense lawyer Mark Geragos discussed the various coronavirus lawsuits he and his firm are involved in, most notably one against Travelers Insurance to cover his business losses due to the shutdown. And, lastly, with the country opening up, are waivers to enter a restaurant, or begin a job, worth the paper they are written on? Learn your rights with hospitality attorney Thomas Jannarone, as he weighed in on legal issues no one ever contemplated before the pandemic.

On Memorial Day, Lorena Gallo (formerly known as Bobbitt) shared her life story in a new Lifetime movie, “I Was Lorena Bobbitt.” But before that, Lorena gave Alan and Kerri Kasem her version of events, a story about life with her ex John Bobbitt, snippets from the sensational media case in the early ‘90s, and what everyone watching, and even those who turned away, may have missed at the time. Now a mother and activist, Lorena also talked about the rise of domestic violence in households during the coronavirus pandemic, and the work she is doing with her foundation to improve the lives of women who have been abused by their partners.

An event you do not want to miss! Dr. Judy Mikovits was live with Alan and Kerri Kasem to explain her perspective of “Plandemic,” the viral video about the COVID-19 pandemic that became such a controversial topic of debate that it has seemingly vanished off the face of the earth, at least for now!  In an intimate tell-all interview, Dr. Judy Mikovits, scientist, author and activist, but now mostly known as the center of  attention in the documentary, shared her thoughts both on direct examination from Kerri and cross-examination from Alan of the current state of the coronavirus, both the backlash and praise she’s received from the film, and how she is dealing with her sudden rise to notoriety, for better or worse. If you missed “Plandemic” before it disappeared from social media, you do not want to be one of those embarrassed souls who misses Gurvey’s Law on Sunday's, at 5 p.m. PST/8 p.m. EST on KABC-AM 790 TalkRadio, on Alexa at 790 KABC Radio and streaming live at kabc.com!‬

‪THIS SUNDAY ON GURVEY’S LAW — Throughout the pandemic, we are hearing stories that government financial aid isn’t always going where it should. According to Daniel L. Hatcher, law professor at the University of Baltimore and author of the book, “The Poverty Industry: The Exploitation of America’s Most Vulnerable Citizen,” these issues are deeper and more troubling than people realize. His book exposes disturbing perverse incentives of various contemporary aid systems. Hatcher, who is featured in Netflix’ documentary "The Trials of Gabriel Fernandez,“ joins Alan Gurvey and Kerri Kasem to talk about injustices involving companies like Maximus that puts profits over compassion and service. Also joining Alan and Kerri is Diane Worley, Executive Director of the California Applicants' Attorneys Association, to talk about how this issue impacts medical treatment in the California Workers’ Compensation system. And, if that isn’t enough, maybe you are thinking about filing a personal injury lawsuit because of the pandemic? Attorney Kathy McArthur of the Georgia law firm McArthur Law Firm has some important advice for you! Tune in on Sundays from 5 pm to 6 pm PST on KABC-AM 790 TalkRadio, on Alexa at Talkradio 790 KABC and streaming live at kabc.com!

After a four week wait... billionaire and Coca-Cola bottling heir Alki David returns to the show! You may remember that the controversial entrepreneur and media tech maven first appeared on Gurvey's Law back in March with his free-wheeling talk about the coronavirus, Lisa Bloom (his adversary in two #MeToo trials), Lisa's mother Gloria Allred, and what really happened behind the scenes of his wildly publicized sexual harassment trials. Well, let's just say Alan and Kerri Kasem will pick up where they left off, and you can pretty much count on the fact that no topic will be off limits with Alki! This time, however, they will be joined by Fred Heather, Alki's attorney from Glaser Weil, who may just try to muzzle the “Bad Boy of Hollywood.” You never know what will happen when Alki David takes the mic, but Gurvey’s Law’s technicians will no doubt have their fingers on the bleepers. Tune in on Sundays from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. on KABC-AM 790 TalkRadio, Alexa at KABC Radio, and streaming live on kabc.com!

The coronavirus pandemic continues to cause serious upheaval for the U.S. economy. This week, Alan and Kerri welcome four guests to talk candidly about how to navigate the new financial and legal landscape. At the top of the hour, criminal defense attorney Sam Bassett joins the show to discuss the effect of the COVID-19 situation on arrests and criminal procedure. He will also prognosticate about legal activity when we come out of the shelter in place rules.  The next question Gurvey’s Law tackles is how soon can we expect the economy to recover from the nationwide shutdown? John Johnson, the CEO of Edgeworth Analytics, explains why he is optimistic about a rebound and why the unemployment numbers aren’t as bad as they appear.  And, speaking of being jobless, if you are tired of being on hold just to file for unemployment benefits, tech entrepreneur Joshua Browder has a new app that might help with your woes.  Then, if you are struggling with what to do with your investments during this uncertain time, wealth manager Josh Oder discusses the do’s and don’ts of managing your money, or what’s left of it!  Tune in on Sundays from 5-6 p.m. at KABC-AM 790 TalkRadio, streaming live at kabc.com and with Alexa at 790KABC!
