Brothers Brian and John Kabateck take a unique approach to discussions affecting business and consumers alike in the state with a discussion that is presented with humor and conflict from brothers of typically differing opinions. Brian Kabateck is Founding and Managing Partner of Kabateck, LLP. A legal firm defending consumers rights and protections. Brian was also President of the Consumers Attorneys of California. John Kabateck, is President of Kabateck Strategies, LLP. His firm keeps the voices of mom and pop businesses heard in the State Capitol. He represents such trade organizations as the NFIB, Associated Builders and Contractors of Northern California and The California Restaurant Association to name a few. This program will be like no other and is intended to shed light on difficult issues surrounding both political and consumer concerns as they make their way into California's Capitol, with a style and delivery that can be unpredictable yet informative and entertaining.© 2025 KABATALKS Ciencia Política Economía Política y Gobierno

  • Episode 34: Prop 36, California’s Crime Debate, and the Early Stakes of the 2026 Governor’s Race
    Nov 30 2025

    Send us a text to let us know what you think of this episode. We would love to hear from you.

    In this episode, Brian and John break down Proposition 36 — what it changes, why voters backed it, and the growing fight over how to fund it. They tackle the core debates around public safety, rehabilitation, and whether the measure deepens existing disparities in California’s justice system.


    The conversation then turns to the rapidly expanding 2026 governor’s race, from early frontrunners like Antonio Villaraigosa and Katie Porter to the challenges facing billionaire candidates and the ripple effects of national politics. To close, the brothers each share one Trump policy they support and one they strongly oppose, offering a sharp but thoughtful exchange heading into Thanksgiving week.

  • Episode 33: Prop 50, Redistricting, and the Future of California Politics
    Nov 10 2025

    Send us a text to let us know what you think of this episode. We would love to hear from you.

    In this episode, the guys dive into the fallout from Election Night — starting with Proposition 50 in California and what its passage means for redistricting, representation, and the balance of political power. They get into the messaging wars, the motivations of voters on both sides, and why the redistricting conversation has become a proxy battle for the national political identity crisis.

    They also take a broader look at key Governor’s races and the New York mayoral shake-up, discussing what these outcomes could mean heading into the 2026 and 2028 election cycles. And in a thoughtful moment, Brian and John reflect on the legacy of former Vice President Dick Cheney following his passing, and what patriotism, service, and conviction look like in politics today.

    Sep 30 2025

    Send us a text to let us know what you think of this episode. We would love to hear from you.

    In this episode, the guys sit down with California Assemblymember John Harabedian to talk about his path from prosecutor to public servant and the issues shaping Sacramento today. They dig into his legislative priorities, from tackling homelessness and housing affordability to strengthening consumer protections and safeguarding voting rights.

    They also get into the political dynamics of California’s Assembly, the balance between local and statewide interests, and how younger lawmakers are approaching public service in a changing political climate. And in a lighter twist, listeners get a glimpse into John’s personal life — like the time Assemblymember Harabedian went to Warped Tour.
