Law & Society Talk WVBR-FM Podcasts

Brendan, Siva, and Max discuss the mechanics and legality of the Texas Two-Step, a controversial restructuring tactic recently used by Johnson & Johnson in an attempt to protect their consumer products brand from liabilities related to claims against their talc products.

CULSR's Law and Society Talk podcast returns after a nearly two-year hiatus! Podcast co-hosts Brendan Klein, Siva Paturi, and Max Fattal review 3 cases scheduled for argument before the Supreme Court.

Jonathan and Andrew are joined by Joseph Margulies, Professor of Law and Government at Cornell University, to discuss the City of Ithaca's proposal to restructure its police department, and how the conservative-leaning Supreme Court has and will interact with the Biden Administration.

Jonathan and Andrew recap the first week of 2021 including a Trump-inspired attack on the U.S. Capitol, the Democrats' recapture of the Senate, and what all this means for American democracy. Later, the hosts discuss the Supreme Court's rebuke of New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo's COVID-19 restrictions.

It’s the season finale for Law & Society Talk and Matt could not be sadder to learn that Chief Justice Roberts hasn’t replied to his thank-you letters. Nevertheless, joined by incoming Editor in Chief Jonathan Harris, the editors take a final pass at the Trump finance cases, unanimous jury trials, and Michael Flynn’s painful realization that “it isn’t over ‘til it’s over.” You may even get some compelling advice on how NOT to invest. But before Vin and Matt sign off, will they be able to prove that bird law is not governed by reason in this country?
