The history of Bill Handel, the self-proclaimed "Latino Jew."
William Wolf Handel was born in Brazil in 1951. At the age of five, he immigrated to the United States with his parents. He grew up in the San Fernando Valley, learned English without the benefit of a bilingual education program and became one of the world’s leading reproductive law experts.
In 1989, Handel began doing a Saturday morning legal advice show on KFI AM 640, “Handel on the Law.” The show is a unique combination of “marginal legal advice” and outrageous Handel remarks. He gets joy out of repeating “you have absolutely no case."
It didn’t take long for KFI to realize that this politically incorrect, self-proclaimed “Latino Jew” had the tell-it-like-it-is attitude listeners were looking for and gave Handel the coveted weekday morning show time slot. He was soon host of the top-rated morning show in the market and "Handel on the Law" was syndicated nationally. read more
