Two Family Law shows with the same name - what are the odds!

By happy coincidence - two shows that focus on Family Law issues have the same name:

Family Matters

And both have a strong connection to PAAO.

The first is hosted by our own, multi-talented and hard-working PAAO President - Jill Egizii.   Along with her co-host - Chicago Court Judge Michele Lowrance - the online streaming radio show has been airing since July 2010.   Listeners are invited to call-in their questions to guests (aired every 2 weeks) during the show at (347) 539-5024.

In general, the topics have focused on Parental Alienation and related Family Law issues - and they have had many well-known and not-so-well known guests and cases, including:

  • David Goldman - who's son Sean was Parentally Abducted by his then-wife to Brazil in 2006.  This case triggered a successful International Court of the  Hague prosecution to bring Sean home to New Jersey.
  • Discussions with many noted researchers and  academics like Dr. Michael Bone, Dr. William Bernet and Dr. Richard Warshak  - and many others about their clinical findings and patient experiences. 
  • Celebrity accounts by former musician Bill Hudson and current movie-star Kristy Swanson about how PA has impacted their own lives as alienated parents or children.  
  • Plus different viewpoints of Attorneys, Family Law reformers, and many other noted commentators. 

You can download any of Jill & Michele's past segments or tune-in LIVE every second Wednesday at http://syndicatednews.net/

The second show with the same name "Family Matters" is a Canadian TV Program that also focuses on Family Law issues and is hosted by Ontario Judge Harvey Brownstone - and it too has a connection to PAAO.

In his 1st segment aired in September Harvey interviewed PAAO Board-member Rhonda Pisanello about her experiences as a child alienated from her mother.  It was a strong opening for the show that is attempting to gain  greater distribution across the country.

"Judge Brownstone is Canada's version of Dr. Phil and Judge Judy all rolled into one."
