Description
Under Further Review with Burke and Gen is our podcast that we are so excited about and happy to finally share with you. We love sports, find celebrity culture interesting and we make our living in the law and in Under Further Review we have combined those passions and interests to talk about athletes and celebrities and their legal issues. Most of the time the content will be informative and, hopefully, a deeper level of information that you would find in most articles and graced with some of our general irreverence.

We're back and it's not all about KD. In fact, he features very little, but we wanted to let him know how much he means to us. In this pod, we break down Big Papi getting shot for wearing white pants (even after Memorial Day!), Zion Williamson's $100 million lawsuit, Masai Ujiri's "credential scuffle" at Oracle Arena and Kellen Winslow's still disgusting (and a jury agrees). Three Minute Warning features Taylor Swift and our support of Caster Semenya. This is for you - our loyal listener Aaahish!
We’re back! And we dish on racketeering and rich people with not so smart kids (aka the Aunt Becky College Scandal), the return of the guilty verdict for the Podfather (aka Aaron Hernandez) and a quick Reality TV Stoop about deportation of a not great guy (aka one of the husbands of one of the Real Housewives)
A shortie but goodie where we discuss the potential settlement of the NHL concussion lawsuit, the Ottawa Senators acting like bunch of mean girls and a $180 million lawsuit against James Andrews, orthopedist to the stars. No Three Minute Warning and a rolling stop through Reality TV Stoop.
Trigger Warnings - I've marked the times in the summary below. Our hot takes on insider trading (M. Kendricks), trainers with questionable motives, the Dallas Mavericks' culture of harassment (18:00 to 33:00), the odd geographic coverage of the federal district courts and where in the world is Fan Bingbing. In the Three Minute Warning, Burke takes down Gwyneth and GOOP and Reality TV Stoop is full of actual bad dudes (1:00:00 to end).
Back from our summer hiatus, we get right back in it with Asia Argento, Urban Meyer, more from our Pod-father Aaron Hernandez, Richie Incognito flips out again, a quick Three Minute Warning and Reality TV Stoop. Our apologies for how loud the background noise is this time around - car alarms, giant trucks and a bark mascot (plus I did a lot of paper shuffling).
Thanks to all of our listeners! Special shoutouts to Kate, Khang and Brendan for hanging with us! NFL Trio with Reggie Bush's big pay day, Jameis Winston's suspension worthy Uber ride and Kellen Winslow II's sad and reprehensible activities. NHL Cyberbullying (Not you too, Canada!). Three Minute Warning is all over the place, a short Reality TV Stoop and a Podfather update.
Colin Kaepernick's lawyer is going to drop a bombshell on us on Monday; First Amendment as it plays out on TV - Roseanne versus Samantha Bee; Burke goes deep on the NHL concussion lawsuit (and Gen chimes in) and the bizarro story of the custody battle over Kurt Cobain's guitar. Three Minute Warning updates the Allison Mack story and Burke previews RHONY's exciting arrest of Luann episode on Reality TV Stoop.
We spend our holiday weekend discussing Sterling Brown and the City of Milwaukee's response, the guilty verdict in a bizarre folie a deux case in England involving an Irish boy band member, labor unrest in Las Vegas and updates on some #MeToo harassers. Our Three Minute Warning is all over the place: soccer updates, drug busts, NSA level conspiracy theories and a layover on Reality TV Stoop with the RH of the Potomac.
Friend of the Pod @robertsnellnews breaks the Matt Patricia story for the Detroit News, TJ Miller is allowed to travel again (and phone in more fake bomb threats), the Smallville sex cult ring leader and Bill Cosby's own words doom him. The 3 Minute warning features #MuteRKelly, Reuben Foster's weird assault case and Dr. Dre versus Dr. Drai and in Reality TV Stoop, Burke can't watch Southern Charm anymore because it makes her feel bad.
Who bit Beyonce? Say it ain't so, Monica Wright McCall. Then, we get into the crazy world of NFL cheerleading rules with the latest EEOC complaint against the New Orleans Saints and the Saintsations (ugh), weird sex cults and sex pet grooming (we see you R. Kelly), and in the world of international sports Ulster Rugby players acquitted of rape in a trial that has us saying #Ibelieveher and the cricket cheating scandal that is tearing Australian cricket asunder. 
We're Back! And it's kind of weird out there. Today we discuss minor league baseball players not being legally entitled to earn the federal minimum wage, Michael Bennett gets an arrest warrant 14 months after he allegedly shoved an elderly lady in a wheelchair, the judge in the Meek Mill case allegedly loves Boys II Men (but who doesn't, really), and some SoCal nuns really want to teach Katy Perry a lesson. In our Three Minute Warning, we talk about Jonathan Martin's troubles and Chevy Chase getting kicked. Thanks for hanging in there with us!
Happy President's Day! Ruffio joins us in celebrating our past presidents! In this episode we talk about Brynn Cameron suing Blake Griffin for palimony, Arkansas St. suing Miami for breach of contract (hurricane be damned), Miami and Dade County suing the Marlins and whether Indy can sue Josh McDaniels. Our hot takes on the Winter Olympics and the not so missing Bachelor contestant.
Happy New Year! Welcome to 2018 where our hot topics are the ugliness of Larry Nasser, Joe McKnight's death results in a manslaughter verdict, and Brian Urlacher is sued for $125 million by his son's mother for defamation.  Our Three Minute Warning includes fraud by an Atari, Questlove and NBC are sued and a breaking lawsuit against Brett Favre.  Reality TV Stoop features a RH gone wild.
Update on our evergreen topic - sexual harassment and assault allegations and their consequences. We then shift into an arrest in the Lorenzen Wright's murder and the ban on Russian at the 2018 Winter Olympics. The Three Minute Warning is pure glee: Ballet by Sharapova is a bust, Mariah Carey gets millions because her ex-boyfriend wasted her time and R. Kelly's diamond encrusted hoodie is missing. And a short Reality TV Stoop.  
Back from Thanksgiving, we tackle men continuing to behave badly from Louis CK and Matt Lauer to Al Franken and John Hockenberry. We take slightly deeper dives on Jameis Winston's alleged groping of his Uber driver in Arizona, Rick Pitino's breach of contract suit against Louisville and a man in North Carolina suing Fletcher Cox for stealing his wife (aka alienation of affection). Our Three Minute Warning - shout out Grey Cup winners Toronto Argonauts - features an update on Martin Shkreli, Burke is not OK with Blake Shelton being People's Sexiest Man Alive and a Reality TV Stoop update on the Giudices.
Apparently, despite our hiatus, there is still much to report on the mounting number of sexual harassment and assault allegations against Danny Masterson, Kevin Spacey and Brett Ratner. Plus we discuss the back and forth in the Ezekiel Elliot suspension. Three Minute Warning features Anthony McClanahan's Demolition Man mugshot look and Reality TV Stoop updates the Bethany Frankel's Ex  stalking situation.
The NFL is Back! Even though our french fries at lunch weighed us down, we discuss Colin Kaepernick's grievance against the NFL for collusion, the unfair labor practice filed against the Dallas Cowboys, and an update on the procedural legal maze that is Ezekiel Elliot's suspension appeal.  The Three Minute Warning Breaks News! Updates on Decapitated, Louisville firings, Rick Pitino's Tort of Outrage and Frank Ocean wins a libel suit filed by his dad. And apparently there is a ton of background noise during our podcast today... the City is a noisy place. Our apologies!
Fleet Week in SF so Blue Angels in the background for Nelly's rape allegations, Cam Newton's dumb and sexist comment about female sportswriters, Harvey Weinstein's sick and predatory behavior and our Three Minute Warning that does some light housekeeping and updating: Amir Khan, Rick Pitino, Jiri Hudler, The Killers' billboards and RH divorce update.
Today's topics include the NCAA in trroouuubbllee  (mostly focused on R. Pitino is not a great person), Mango Mussolini (aka 45) picks a fight with the NLF, how much I love Steve Kerr and the Podfather makes another appearance (from beyond the grave). Letting you all know now that there are some very strong feelings and some strong language involved.
Disclaimer - Another open window recording situation so it might be a bit noisy.  The list of topics is long. Here goes: Antonio Cromartie's failed vasectomy, Decapitated's woes (Polish technical death metal band), Au Fudge - you forgot to pay me my tips (Jessica Biel is being sued for wage and hour violations), the First Amendment and Employment Law implications of Jemele Hill's tweets, Detroit Lions fan is banned because racism is bad (got it?), Martin Shrekli is in jail (and his Wu-Tang album might not be the Wu-Tang Clan), Charles Oakley's civil suit against Dolan and MSG, JCVD's son is in trouble, the Thicke estate is settled and a quick update on Ezekiel Elliot's on going appeal.
