TRANSCRIPT Dr. Davide Soldato: Hello and welcome to JCO After Hours, the podcast where we sit down with authors from some of the latest articles published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology. I am your host, Dr. Davide Soldato, medical oncologist at Ospedale San Martino in Genoa, Italy. Today, we are joined by JCO author, Professor Sundar Jagannath, Professor of Medicine at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and the Tisch Cancer Institute. He also serves as Network Director for the Center of Excellence for Multiple Myeloma, and he is an internationally recognized expert in the field of multiple myeloma. Today, we will be discussing the article titled, "Long-Term Remission and Survival After Treatment With Ciltacabtagene Autoleucel in CARTITUDE-1 Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma." Thank you for speaking with us, Professor Jagannath. Dr. Sundar Jagannath: Thank you for having me, Dr. Davide Soldato. It is a pleasure to be here. JCO is a highly recognized journal among the oncologists, so I am very happy and privileged to be here today. Dr. Davide Soldato: Thank you so much for being with us. So, I wanted to start a little bit with the rationale of the study and the population that was included in the study. So, the trial that we are discussing, CARTITUDE-1, was already published before, and we observed very good results with a single infusion of cilta-cel. So we had previously reported a median progression-free survival of 30 months, and median overall survival was not reached. So, I just wanted to ask you if you could guide us a little bit into the population that was included in the study and also explain a little bit to our listeners what is the drug that we are discussing, cilta-cel. Dr. Sundar Jagannath: It is a CAR T-cell. This is a patient's own lymphocytes, which goes through apheresis and is sent to the company, where they modify it and introduce the B cell receptor. In this case, you know, there is a heavy chain gene receptor for the BCMA, and in cilta-cel, there are actually two receptor sites on each molecule, or there are two binding domains on each receptor molecule. So, it is considered to be quite efficacious. As you reported, the earlier results that the patients who participated, 97% of the patient responded. Now, you asked about the patients who participated in the clinical trial. This clinical trial was conducted between July of 2018 and October of 2019. At that time, this was a phase 1b/phase 2 trial, and the whole idea was to take patients who had relapsed all the available treatment regimen so that these patients were considered to have, in the unmet medical need situation. So, what does that entail? That means the patient should have been exposed to a proteasome inhibitor, to an immunomodulatory molecule, and to an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody and should have received at least three or more prior lines of therapy and should be actually progressing on their last line of therapy. So with that requirement, if you look at it, the median number of prior therapy on the patients who participated was actually six. So patients were heavily pretreated. They had exhausted all available treatment options. So, they can participate in this clinical trial. And if not, there have been real-world evidence, such as LocoMMotion, which had reported what is the outcome for such a patient if they were treated outside of this clinical trial, if they were treated with the then available regimen. Their median progression free survival would have been only 3 months, and most patients would have lost their life within a year. So, this was truly an unmet medical need with patients in a very difficult clinical situation. Let's put it that way. So, those were the patients who participated in this particular trial. Dr. Davide Soldato: Thank you very much. And as we mentioned before, the results that were obtained in this clinical trial were really very interesting. And now, in this issue of the Journal of Clinical Oncology, you are reporting data with a longer follow up. So we are actually at more than 5 years of follow up for the patients included in this trial. So, I just wanted a little bit of insight into why you decided to report these long-term outcomes and what type of information do you think you could provide with this study to the medical community? Dr. Sundar Jagannath: This is very important because this was a clinical trial that was done in patients who were, as I said, in unmet medical need. Most of the patients had prior stem cell transplantation, had gone through a proteasome inhibitor. Many of them have had both Velcade and carfilzomib treatment. Most of them had been exposed to lenalidomide and pomalidomide. And as required, all of the patients had to have had prior exposure to anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody or daratumumab. So, the patients were heavily pretreated. Typically, TIL CAR T-cells came into the field at this particular moment, until then, we were developing small molecules, and they usually would have a PFS of 3 months and median life expectancy of a year, the overall response rate of 30%, and that is how, if you look back, that is how carfilzomib was approved, that is how pomalidomide was approved. So, the drugs which were approved, including daratumumab, you know, the response rate was in the same ballpark. So you would see that most agents, single agents, would have had a response rate in the neighborhood of 30%, the progression-free survival would have been between 3 to 5 months or 6 months at the most, and the life expectancy was short. And here comes a drug, and when I was following the patients at Mount Sinai, I found that there were a subset of patients, they got one-time treatment and they were in complete remission, no trace of cancer with annual evaluation with PET CT and bone marrow evaluation for MRD. So, I said this is remarkable, and this needs to be reported. And I went to the Janssen and company, and they agreed to review the entire experience. This is remarkable that 32 of the 97 patients, or one third of the patients, were alive and progression-free. This is unheard of for any clinical trial until now, that the patient will be progression-free, one third of the patients on a clinical trial will be progression-free, in the late stage of their disease. So that is the most important impact. And that is why this 5-year follow-up results were presented. Dr. Davide Soldato: Thank you very much. That was very clear. And as you said, we are speaking about a population that was heavily pretreated, that had exhausted all type of treatment options outside of a clinical trial. And as you said, one third of the patients was alive and progression-free after 5 years from being included and infused inside of the study. So, considering this population that, as we said, had received all treatment options, I was wondering if you observed any kind of differences in terms of disease characteristics when looking at these patients that had exceptional response, so, alive and progression-free at 5 years, and the patients that sadly had developed a progression after the infusion in the study. Dr. Sundar Jagannath: This is very important because we wanted to see who are the patients who are having this exceptional outcome. And we looked at all the 97 patients. If we look at all the patients, we saw that there were initially, out of the 97, 17 patients died earlier in the disease course due to treatment related complications, etc. But there were about 46 patients who had progression of disease and 32 patients, or one third, were alive without progression of disease. Then we looked at the 46 patients who had progression of disease. Of them, we found that 30 had disease progression and its complication, and there were actually 13 patients who were still alive even after progression of disease. So we decided to compare these 46 patients who had progression of disease versus 32 patients who had no progression of disease to see what is the difference. To our surprise, the age was similar, male, female distribution was similar. High-risk cytogenetics, which we would have thought, you know, that is why we say high-risk disease, the term, high-risk cytogenetics was equally distributed. That was really a surprise. Number of lines of prior therapy, number of exposure to drugs, all of that was the same. So that was also interesting. But a theme did emerge. Patients, in general, tend to have lower burden of disease who had the exceptional outcome. But there is one which we considered as bad, the extramedullary disease. Multiple myeloma being a blood cancer, it is usually in the bone marrow. When it starts growing outside of the bone marrow, the extramedullary disease, usually it portends poor prognosis. But we were surprised that actually there were an equal number of extramedullary disease patients even in the long-term survivor as those who had progressed of disease. So the most important takeaway was patients who had lower burden of disease, they had less number of myeloma cells in their bone marrow, percentage wise, and the soluble BCMA level was lower. Soluble BCMA is an indirect measure of the amount of plasma cells in the patient's body. It is like a tumor burden. So they were low. So, this was an important finding because it has future ramification, as you can understand. If this treatment is made available earlier in the disease course of the patients, where we are able to control the disease better, then more patients are likely to have such wonderful outcomes as one third of the patient experience in the late stage of the disease. Dr. Davide Soldato: So, you already mentioned soluble BCMA as a marker of potentially better prognosis as being correlated to a lower volume of disease. I was wondering if you could give us some more information about the biomarkers that you evaluated in the study. For example, you evaluated a little bit the CAR T expansion kinetics and also some others that I think could be interesting and could point to some population that experienced such important benefit. Dr. Sundar Jagannath: That is a very important point because CAR T-cell, it is a live cell and its efficacy depends upon how well the CAR T-cell is going to function. And then, you know, the patient undergoes apheresis. This is a patient's own lymphocyte. So first and foremost is who would generate good CAR T-cell. Those who have plenty of lymphocytes at the time they are coming for apheresis. This is likely to happen earlier in the course of the disease than in patients who have gone through numerous lines of therapy and exhausted. So, in this particular trial, of course this was in late stage of the disease, and so we were able to show patients who had lower number of T cell in circulation, and the way to measure is if they had more neutrophils and less lymphocytes. So that is what is called as a higher T cell over neutrophil, they did better. If they have more neutrophil than T cells, then they did not do well. So, procurement. The second one is also whether the T cells are more naive, you know, not exhausted T cells. So more naive T cells, if you are able to procure from the patient, they did very well. Now, after the CAR T-cell manufacture, then the expansion, when you put it back into the patient, if the T cells expand very well, so that the effector, that is the CAR T-cells to the tumor ratio is good, so there are more effector cells, the CAR T was able to expand and the amount of tumor was less, then the efficacy was very, very good. As I said, the patients in this group, those who had a lower burden of disease, they did better, and that is because of the CAR T-cell expansion, so the effector to the target ratio was favorable. So that is another important. And then there are also the type of CAR T-cells, having CD4 T cells with central memory phenotype at the peak expansion also makes a difference. So all of that matters. But this is important because the efficacy of the CAR T-cell, it is persistent, long persistent and keeping the cancer down. Its ability to get rid of the cancer completely at the first go around because usually we are not able to detect the CAR T-cells beyond 6 months in the majority of patients and very rarely after a year or two. So it is very uncommon to find the CAR T-cells in circulation or even in the regular bone marrow evaluation. So, efficacy, the expansion, having naive T cells, having good effector to target ratio and more central memory kind of T cell, because if it is all effector T cell, they will get quickly utilized and get exhausted, whereas the central memory cells can expand more and give more effective CAR T-cells. Dr. Davide Soldato: Thank you very much. I was wondering if you could guide us a little bit into what is your opinion regarding the positioning of CAR T-cells given all of these logistics that is necessary compared, for example, with bispecific antibodies against BCMA, which have the same target, but they do not have all of these logistics before being administered to the patient. Dr. Sundar Jagannath: That is a very important question, how to sequence these treatments now that we have two BCMA-directed CAR T-cells available. We have three BCMA-directed bispecific and one GPRC5D-directed bispecific antibodies are available. And so the question comes in for at least the currently approved CAR T-cell therapy, there is an obligatory time. You have to go through apheresis and you have to ship to the company, and there is a manufacturing time, roughly about 2 months before they can receive it. During that time, you want to make sure the patient's disease is under control. So that is a given. There are several ways to look at it when we evaluate the patient and talk to the patient. One good thing is now the two CAR T-cells which are approved, one is cilta-cel we talked about, and the other one is ide-cel. Ide-cel is approved in earlier line of therapy, two or more prior lines of therapy, and cilta-cel is approved in patients who have failed one line of therapy and who are lenalidomide refractory. So, the treatment of CAR T-cell is available earlier. And as I said, when you administer CAR T-cell earlier, you are able to keep the disease burden down, and it is a one and done deal. There is a better quality of life for the patient, and you are able to produce long, durable remission and potentially a cure. Now coming to the bispecific, they are currently available in later lines of therapy. So if you look at it from a patient's perspective, you can use the CAR T-cell earlier and then go through the bispecific therapy. But if the patient comes with relapsed refractory myeloma and has not used the CAR T-cell therapy and has not used the bispecific therapy, then the physicians have to decide which one they want to use. If somebody's disease is rapidly progressing and they need immediate tumor reduction and they have already exhausted all available therapy, then going through BCMA bispecific therapy is quite appropriate. And secondly, CAR T-cell therapy is generally given to somewhat physically more fit patients, whereas bispecific therapy, because you are giving antibody at step-wise dosing in this patient, and you have the ability to stop at any particular dose and then come back and redose, whereas CAR T is, you just give it to them one time, you have a lot more control. So intermediate frail or even frail patients can go through bispecific therapy, whereas it would not be in the best interest of the patient to go through a CAR T-cell therapy when they are frail. So that is another important point. But from the information available, when the patient goes on a BCMA bispecific therapy and they start progressing on treatment, usually it is their T cells are exhausted or the BCMA is no longer expressed on the tumor cells. So coming with CAR T-cell later on is usually not effective, whereas giving CAR T-cell earlier, if the patient relapses later, they have good T-cell function and most of the time the BCMA is still expressed. So you are able to give the BCMA to the maximum benefit by using the CAR T first and BCMA later. So if somebody asked me how to sequence this, just off the bat, you will say CAR T first, BCMA bispecific second. But as I said, there are unique situations. Then there is another potential that is happening. You can change the target. You can use a BCMA against GPRC5D to reduce the tumor, and then go ahead and consolidate it with a CAR T-cell therapy. That is also possible. You are changing the target from GPRC5D to BCMA, the tumor is already down, so the patient is likely to benefit. So these are all newer treatment options which have become available to the physician. So they will have to look at individual patients and decide what is the best course of action for that patient. Dr. Davide Soldato: So, I just wanted to close a little bit with your opinion about how these results translate into clinical practice. So considering this outstanding 5-year data that we have seen, one third of the patients who are alive and progression-free after a single infusion of cilta-cel, do you think that we could start to think about functional cure even in patients who have a diagnosis of relapsed refractory multiple myeloma? Dr. Sundar Jagannath: My feeling is this is important because in this particular study which is published, 12 patients who were followed at Mount Sinai out of the 32 patients who are alive and progression-free, 12 were followed at Mount Sinai. And they were evaluated every year with bone marrow MRD testing by clonoSEQ in 11 of the 12 patients, and one was by multiparametric flow cytometry. So most of them were 10 to the minus 6, not even one in a million cancer cells, and all of them had functional imaging, which is called PET CT every year. So these were patients who had no evidence of disease that we could detect with the technology available today, serologically, in the bone marrow, or anywhere else in the body with a PET CT. They were found to be disease free after a single infusion of cilta-cel. So, that would be almost to the definition of a cure because if you look at cure as a definition for any cancer, cure is defined as a state of complete remission with no trace of cancer that persists over a period of 5 years or longer without maintenance. And that will be applicable for breast cancer, lymphoma, leukemia. So it is a general statement. And if we use that in myeloma too, then I could say that these 12 patients from my center, we proved that they are cured of their myeloma. They are not functionally cured. You've got to remember, there is only cure. That was the definition across all diseases. So there is nothing like a functional cure. They are cured of myeloma. So is myeloma curable? This is the first time we are looking at that. We do know, every physician treating myeloma that there are patients out there, 10 year and beyond, without evidence of disease. This has been published by University of Arkansas, Bart Barlogie's group, who has been saying that myeloma is a curable disease for a long time. And many others have shown long-term follow up. But this one in a late stage disease, we were able to show that they were one treatment with no maintenance. All other studies have been in newly diagnosed myeloma patients. Nobody has shown in late relapse patients on a clinical trial a third of the patient will be progression-free. And 12 of them who were studied were actually disease free. So they were cured of the disease. So if we accept that, then the next question is, first step towards cure is achieving complete remission. They should have no monoclonal protein by any technology you want to use, no measurable residual disease using next gen sequencing or clonoSEQ, and functional imaging whole body PET CT or whole body MRI. So that is important, definition of the complete remission. And then it has to be sustained. That is something the IMWG and IMS, International Myeloma Society, they will have to come together for a consensus. How many years should they be followed and should be in this kind of status with no trace of cancer? Is it, 3 years are enough? 4 years enough? 5 years is enough? For me, I said in this paper, 5 years is a good definition for achieving a potential cure. Then you use the term 'functionally cured'. I have a problem with functionally cured and operationally cured or whatever. Functionally cured was originally put out by Paiva from Spain. There were 8% of newly diagnosed myeloma patients who have, after they go get treated, they will have an MGUS like phenomenon, a small amount of paraprotein detectable, and they are only 8%. And he said that these patients could be off treatment and the disease does not progress. But the problem is when you are giving treatment like maintenance therapy continuously until progression, you do not know exactly who is in the MGUS situation. So you have to have done sophisticated flow cytometry like Paiva did, and it is not quite clinically applicable. So functionally cured applies only for 8% of the people, so it should go out of the vocabulary. Then you can say 'operationally cured'. These are the patients traditionally Bart Barlogie and others showed that they have a large number of patients who have been followed for 10 years with no recurrence of disease, not on treatment. But in those days, they did not have MRD PET CT and all of them done systematically. So that is why they had to come up with a situation where they said they were operationally cured. So yes, myeloma patients have been cured since auto transplant was introduced. I completely agree. It is not new to the CAR T-cell therapy. But the beauty of the CAR T-cell therapy was it was in relapsed refractory myeloma, unmet medical need, number one. Number two, they were studied systematically. It was a clinical trial adjudicated by FDA and EMA for drug approval, cilta-cel was approved. So these patients were carefully followed, and it was a multi-center study. And in that group of patients, we were able to show patients- So, I think this would indicate cure is a reality in myeloma, and as these kind of treatments, immunologic treatment, either it is a CAR T-cell therapy or BCMA bispecific or whatever, there is a chance more patients are likely to be cured, and these treatments have to move forward and so that we are looking towards a cure. That is the beauty of it, and I just thank you for asking and also throwing in this so-called functionally cured, which people like to use casually, and I say it is time to talk more cure and not stuck with functionally cured because that does not allow the field to progress. Dr. Davide Soldato: Thank you very much. That was very interesting. Dr. Sundar Jagannath: And provocative. Dr. Davide Soldato: A little bit, but I think that we needed to close the podcast with this kind of reflection coming from someone who is an expert in the field, as you are.

Relish returns with a special edition conversation about faith, culture, and the often-overlooked language of dress. Hosts Don Patterson and Rowan sit down with longtime Hillcrest history teacher and coach Marcus Miller to explore how clothing, customs, and community expectations have signaled belief across generations — and what that looks like today. The episode opens with warmth and anecdote: Marcus brings his grandfather's transition coat — a garment that marks the shift between Amish and conservative Mennonite dress — and recounts family and school memories from Iowa Mennonite School (now Hillcrest). The trio traces historical changes in plain dress, school rules about ties and coverings, and surprising student reactions to questions about feeling different as Mennonites across the decades. Rooted in Scripture, the discussion centers on Romans 12:1–2 (nonconformity and transformation) and spills into Matthew 5–7 and the fruits of the Spirit. The guests wrestle with legalism versus heartfelt worship, asking whether outward dress still matters, when it rightly communicates faith, and how external signals compare to the ongoing, often fuzzy work of spiritual action and character. Through stories — from boys in IMS letter jackets to choir tie rules, to the practical question of whether ministers should wear collars in places like prisons — the episode balances history, theology, and practical counsel. Listeners will hear perspectives on modesty, generational shifts (including modern trends in clergy attire and Gen Z expectations), and concrete spiritual practices that make a witness beyond clothing: living the Sermon on the Mount, cultivating the fruits of the Spirit, and allowing transformed actions to speak as loudly as any uniform. Expect a reflective, anecdote-rich conversation that connects family memory and church policy to broader questions about identity, witness, and cultural adaptation. Whether you're curious about Mennonite history, pastoral practice, or how to live out nonconformity in a messy world, this episode offers stories, scripture, and practical prompts to help add a little spice to your spiritual life.   Do you have questions for Pastor Don?  send them to tmadask@gmail.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbkAVsuqU5_zWnmGca-OYaw/videos Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/RELISH319 Apologetics, Theology, Kalona, Wellman, Washington, Kalona Mennonite Church, West Chester Community Church, Jesus, Christianity, Christian, Church, Best New Christian Videos, Podcast, Relish

Every year, Joseph Goldstein does a three month silent meditation retreat by himself at his home in Massachusetts. In this conversation you're about to hear, Joseph had just emerged from one such retreat with a bunch of thoughts on what are called the three proliferating tendencies or three papañca to use the ancient Pali term.  These are three ways in which we perpetuate an unhealthy sense of self. Joseph has explained that you can think about the process of going deeper in meditation as a process of lightening up or getting less self-centered. You're about to get a masterclass in doing just that.  For the uninitiated, Joseph is one of the co-founders of the Insight Meditation Society in Barre, Massachusetts. His co-founders are two other meditation titans, Sharon Salzberg and Jack Kornfield. Joseph has been a teacher at IMS since it was founded in the seventies and he continues to be the resident guiding teacher there.  In this episode we talk about: The framework for understanding the three proliferating tendencies; the basic building blocks of our experience in the world Six things that make up what the Buddha called “the all”  What non-self means and why it's essential to the Buddhist teaching of liberation The two levels of truth: conventional and ultimate Why language is so important in conditioning how we experience things  How the three proliferating tendencies provide a very practical guide to understanding how we manufacture our own suffering   Join Dan's online community here Follow Dan on social: Instagram, TikTok Subscribe to our YouTube Channel   Get ready for another Meditation Party at Omega Institute!

Tony Hassini is well into his 80's and has earned a time to look back at his illustrious career and all that he has done for entertainment. In the 1970's he developed “The Magic of Burger King” which was a nationwide campaign coupling their advertising with real life characters. But before that, in 1968, Tony formed the International Magicians Society (IMS) which developed into the world's largest magic organization that today presents the Merlin Award to deserving magicians around the world at special, high class award ceremonies. View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize This conversation was recorded using Zoom prior to the annual Merlin Awards banquet that typically takes place in Las Vegas on the night following MAGIC Live! We first talk about Tony's involvement with creating and developing the Marvelous Magical Burger King ad campaign in the 1970's. During that time, he met Ray Croc, founder of McDonald's, who gave him some good advice. But before the campaign was adopted, Tony created the IMS which, according to the Guinness World Book of Records, is the largest magic organization in the world.

[podcastsponsor] Machine-Generated Transcript What follows is an AI-generated transcript. The transcript may contain errors and is not a substitute for listening to the episode. Christopher S. Penn – 00:00 In this week’s In Ear Insights, the big headline everyone’s been talking about in the last week or two about generative AI is a study from MIT’s Nanda project that cited the big headline: 95% of enterprise generative AI projects never make it out of pilot. A lot of the commentary clearly shows that no one has actually read the study because the study is very good. It’s a very good study that walks through what the researchers are looking at and acknowledged the substantial limitations of the study, one of which was that it had a six-month observation period. Katie, you and I have both worked in enterprise organizations and we have had and do have enterprise clients. Some people can’t even buy a coffee machine in six months, much less route a generative AI project. Christopher S. Penn – 00:49 But what I wanted to talk about today was some of the study’s findings because they directly relate to AI strategy. So if you are not an AI ready strategist, we do have a course for that. Katie Robbert – 01:05 We do. As someone, I’ve been deep in the weeds of building this AI ready strategist course, which will be available on September 2. It’s actually up for pre-sale right now. You go to trust insights AI/AI strategy course. I just finished uploading everything this morning so hopefully I used all the correct edits and not the ones with the outtakes of me threatening to murder people if I couldn’t get the video done. Christopher S. Penn – 01:38 The bonus, actually, the director’s edition. Katie Robbert – 01:45 Oh yeah, not to get too off track, but there was a couple of times I was going through, I’m like, oops, don’t want to use that video. But back to the point, so obviously I saw the headline last week as well. I think the version that I saw was positioned as “95% of AI pilot projects fail.” Period. And so of course, as someone who’s working on trying to help people overcome that, I was curious. When I opened the article and started reading, I’m like, “Oh, well, this is misleading,” because, to be more specific, it’s not that people can’t figure out how to integrate AI into their organization, which is the problem that I help solve. Katie Robbert – 02:34 It’s that people building their own in-house tools are having a hard time getting them into production versus choosing a tool off the shelf and building process around it. That’s a very different headline. And to your point, Chris, the software development life cycle really varies and depends on the product that you’re building. So in an enterprise-sized company, the likelihood of them doing something start to finish in six months when it involves software is probably zero. Christopher S. Penn – 03:09 Exactly. When you dig into the study, particularly why pilots fail, I thought this was a super useful chart because it turns out—huge surprise—the technology is mostly not the problem. One of the concerns—model quality—is a concern. The rest of these have nothing to do with technology. The rest of these are challenging: Change management, lack of executive sponsorship, poor user experience, or unwillingness to adopt new tools. When we think about this chart, what first comes to mind is the 5 Ps, and 4 out of 5 are people. Katie Robbert – 03:48 It’s true. One of the things that we built into the new AI strategy course is a 5P readiness assessment. Because your pilot, your proof of concept, your integration—whatever it is you’re doing—is going to fail if your people are not ready for it. So you first need to assess whether or not people want to do this because that’s going to be the thing that keeps this from moving forward. One of the responses there was user experience. That’s still people. If people don’t feel they can use the thing, they’re not going to use it. If it’s not immediately intuitive, they’re not going to use it. We make those snap judgments within milliseconds. Katie Robbert – 04:39 We look at something and it’s either, “Okay, this is interesting,” or “Nope,” and then close it out. It is a technology problem, but that’s a symptom. The root is people. Christopher S. Penn – 04:52 Exactly. In the rest of the paper, in section 6, when it talks about where the wins were for companies that were successful, I thought this was interesting. Lead qualification, speed, customer retention. Sure, those are front office things, but the paper highlights that the back office is really where enterprises will win using generative AI. But no one’s investing it. People are putting all the investment up front in sales and marketing rather than in the back office. So the back office wins. Business process optimization. Elimination: $2 million to $10 million annually in customer service and document processing—especially document processing is an easy win. Agency spend reduction: 30% decrease in external, creative, and content costs. And then risk checks for financial services by doing internal risk management. Christopher S. Penn – 05:39 I thought this was super interesting, particularly for our many friends and colleagues who work at agencies, seeing that 30% decrease in agency spend is a big deal. Katie Robbert – 05:51 It’s a huge deal. And this is, if we dig into this specific line item, this is where you’re going to get a lot of those people challenges because we’re saying 30% decrease in external creative and content costs. We’re talking about our designers and our writers, and those are the two roles that have felt the most pressure of generative AI in terms of, “Will it take my job?” Because generative AI can create images and it can write content. Can it do it well? That’s pretty subjective. But can it do it? The answer is yes. Christopher S. Penn – 06:31 What I thought was interesting says these gains came without material workforce reduction. Tools accelerated work, but did not change team structures or budgets. Instead, ROI emerged from reduced external spend, limiting contracts, cutting agency fees, replacing expensive consultants with AI-powered internal capabilities. So that makes logical sense if you are spending X dollars on something, an agency that writes blog content for you. When we were back at our old PR agency, we had one firm that was spending $50,000 a month on having freelancers write content that when you and I reviewed, it was not that great. Machines would have done a better job properly prompted. Katie Robbert – 07:14 What I find interesting is it’s saying that these gains came without material workforce reduction, but that’s not totally true because you did have to cut your agency fees, which is people actually doing the work, and replacing expensive consultants with AI-powered internal capabilities. So no, you didn’t cut workforce reduction at your own company, but you cut it at someone else’s. Christopher S. Penn – 07:46 Exactly. So the red flag there for anyone who works in an agency environment or a consulting environment is how much risk are you at from AI taking your existing clients away from you? So you might not lose a client to another agency—you might lose a client to an internal AI project where if there isn’t a value add of human beings. If your agency is just cranking out templated press releases, yeah, you’re at risk. So I think one of the first things that I took away from this report is that every agency should be doing a very hard look at what value it provides and saying, “How easy is it for AI to replicate this?” Christopher S. Penn – 08:35 And if you’re an agency and you’re like, “Oh, well, we can just have AI write our blog posts and hand it off to the client.” There’s nothing stopping the client from doing that either and just getting rid of you entirely. Katie Robbert – 08:46 The other thing that sticks out to me is replacing expensive consultants with AI-powered internal capabilities. Technically, Chris, you and I are consultants, but we’re also the first ones to knock the consulting industry as a whole, because there’s a lot of smoke and mirrors in the consulting industry. There’s a lot of people who talk a big talk, have big ideas, but don’t actually do anything useful and productive. So I see this and I don’t immediately think, “Oh, we’re in trouble.” I think, “Oh, good, it’s going to clear out the rest of the noise in the industry and make way for the people who can actually do something.” Christopher S. Penn – 09:28 And that is the heart and soul, I think, for us. Obviously, we have our own vested interest in ensuring that we continue to add value to our clients. But I think you’re absolutely right that if you are good at the “why”—which is what a lot of consulting focuses on—that’s important. If you’re good at the “what”—which is more of the tactical stuff, “what are you going to do?”—that’s important. But what we see throughout this paper is the “how” is where people are getting tangled up: “How do we implement generative AI?” If you are just a navel-gazing ChatGPT expert, that “how” is going to bite you really hard really soon. Christopher S. Penn – 10:13 Because if you go and read through the rest of the paper, one of the things it talks about is the gap—the implementation gap between “here’s ChatGPT” and then for the enterprise it was like, “Well, here’s all of our data and all of our systems and all of our everything else that we want AI to talk to in a safe and secure way.” And this gap is gigantic between these two worlds. So tools like ChatGPT are being relegated to, “Let’s write more blog posts and write some press releases and stuff” instead of “help me actually get some work done with the things that I have to do in a prescribed way,” because that’s the enterprise. That gap is where consulting should be making a difference. Christopher S. Penn – 10:57 But to your point, with a lot of navel-gazing theorists, no one’s bridging that gap. Katie Robbert – 11:05 What I find interesting about the shift that we’ve seen with generative AI is we’ve almost in some ways regressed in the way that work is getting done. We’re looking at things as independent, isolated tasks versus fully baked, well-documented workflows. And we need to get back to those holistic 360-degree workflows to figure out where we can then insert something generative AI versus picking apart individual tasks and then just having AI do that. Now I do think that starting with a proof of concept on an individual task is a good idea because you need to demonstrate some kind of success. You need to show that it can do the thing, but then you need to go beyond that. It can’t just forever, to your point, be relegated to writing blog posts. Katie Robbert – 12:05 What does that look like as you start to expand it from project to program within your entire organization? Which, I don’t know if you know this, there’s a whole lesson about that in the AI strategy course. Just figured I would plug that. But all kidding aside, that’s one of the biggest challenges that I’m seeing with organizations that “disrupt” with AI is they’re still looking at individual tasks versus workflows as a whole. Christopher S. Penn – 12:45 Yep. One of the things that the paper highlighted was that the reason why a lot of these pilots fail is because either the vendor or the software doesn’t understand the actual workflow. It can do the miniature task, but it doesn’t understand the overall workflow. And we’ve actually had input calls with clients and potential clients where they’ve walked us through their workflow. And you realize AI can’t do all of it. There’s just some parts that just can’t be done by AI because in many cases it’s sneaker-net. It’s literally a human being who has to move stuff from one system to another. And there’s not an easy way to do that with generative AI. The other thing that really stood out for me in terms of bridging this divide is from a technological perspective. Christopher S. Penn – 13:35 The biggest hurdle from the technology side was cited as no memory. A tool like ChatGPT and stuff has no institutional memory. It can’t easily connect to your internal knowledge bases. And at an enterprise, that’s a really big deal. Obviously, at Trust Insights’ size—with five or four employees and a bunch of AI—we don’t have to synchronize and coordinate massive stores of institutional knowledge across the team. We all pretty much know what’s going on. When you are an IBM with 300,000 employees, that becomes a really big issue. And today’s tools, absent those connectors, don’t have that institutional memory. So they can’t unlock that value. And the good news is the technology to bridge that gap exists today. It exists today. Christopher S. Penn – 14:27 You have tools that have memory across an entire codebase, across a SharePoint instance. Et cetera. But where this breaks down is no one knows where that information is or how to connect it to these tools, and so that huge divide remains. And if you are a company that wants to unlock the value of gen AI, you have to figure out that memory problem from a platform perspective quickly. And the good news is there’s existing tools that do that. There’s vector databases and there’s a whole long list of acronyms and tongue twisters that will solve that problem for you. But the other four pieces need to be in place to do that because it requires a huge lift to get people to be willing to share their data, to do it in a secure way, and to have a measurable outcome. Katie Robbert – 15:23 It’s never a one-and-done. So who owns it? Who’s going to maintain it? What is the process to get the information in? What is the process to get the information out? But even backing up further, the purpose is why are we doing this in the first place? Are we an enterprise-sized company with so many employees that nobody knows the same information? Or am I a small solopreneur who just wants to have some protection in case something happens and I lose my memory or I want to onboard someone new and I want to do a knowledge-share? And so those are very different reasons to do it, which means that your approach is going to be slightly different as well. Katie Robbert – 16:08 But it also sounds like what you’re saying, Chris, is yes, the technology exists, but not in an easily accessible way that you could just pick up a memory stick off the shelf, plug it in, and say, “Boom, now we have memory. Go ahead and tell it everything.” Christopher S. Penn – 16:25 The paper highlights in section 6.5 where things need to go right, which is Agentic AI. In this case, Agentic AI is just fancy for, “Hey, we need to connect it to the rest of our systems.” It’s an expensive consulting word and it sounds cool. Agentic AI and agentic workflows and stuff, it really just means, “Hey, you’ve got this AI engine, but it’s not—you’re missing the rest of the car, and you need the rest of the car.” Again, the good news is the technology exists today for these tools to have access to that. But you’re blocking obstacles, not the technology. Christopher S. Penn – 17:05 Your governance is knowing where your data lives and having people who have the skills and knowledge to bring knowledge management practices into a gen AI world because it is different. It is not the same as previous knowledge management initiatives. We remember all the “in” with knowledge management was all the rage in the 90s and early 2000s with knowledge management systems and wikis and internal things and SharePoint and all that stuff, and no one ever kept it up to date. Today, Agentic can solve some of those problems, but you need to have all the other human being stuff in place. The machines can’t do it by themselves. Katie Robbert – 17:51 So yes, on paper it can solve all those problems. But no, it’s not going to. Because if we couldn’t get people to do it in a more analog way where it was really simple and literally just upload the latest document to the server or add 2 lines of detail to your code in terms of what this thing is about, adding more technology isn’t suddenly going to change that. It’s just adding another layer of something people aren’t going to do. I’m very skeptical always, and I just feel this is what’s going to mislead people. They’re like, “Oh, now I don’t have to really think about anything because the machine is just going to know what I know.” But it’s that initial setup and maintenance that people are going to skip. Katie Robbert – 18:47 So the machine’s going to know what it came out of the box with. It’s never going to know what you know because you’ve never interacted with it, you’ve never configured with it, you’ve never updated it, you’ve never given it to other people to use. It’s actually just going to become a piece of shelfware. Christopher S. Penn – 19:02 I will disagree with you there. For existing enterprise systems, specifically Copilot and Gemini. And here’s why. Those tools, assuming they’re set up properly, will have automatic access to the back-end. So they’ll have access to your document store, they’ll have access to your mail server, they’ll have access to those things so that even if people don’t—because you’re right, people ain’t going to do it. People ain’t going to document their code, they’re not going to write up detailed notes. But if the systems are properly configured—and that is a big if—it will have access to all of your Microsoft Teams transcripts, it will have access to all of your Google Meet transcripts and all that stuff. And on the back-end, without participation from the humans, it will at least have a greater scope of knowledge across your company properly configured. Christopher S. Penn – 19:50 That’s the big asterisk that will give those tools that institutional memory. Greater institutional memory than you have now, which at the average large enterprise is really siloed. Marketing has no idea what sales is doing. Sales has no idea what customer service is doing. But if you have a decent gen AI tool and a properly configured back-end infrastructure where the machines are already logging all your documents and all your spreadsheets and all this stuff, without you, the human, needing to do any work, it will generate better results because it will have access to the institutional data source. Katie Robbert – 20:30 Someone still has to set it up and maintain it. Christopher S. Penn – 20:32 Correct. Which is the whole properly configured part. Katie Robbert – 20:36 It’s funny, as you’re going through listing all of the things that it can access, my first thought is most of those transcripts aren’t going to be useful because people are going to hop on a call and instead of getting things done, they’re just going to complain about whatever their boss is asking them to do. And so the institutional knowledge is really, it’s only as good as the data you give it. And I would bet you, what is it that you like to say? A small pastry with the value of less than $5 or whatever it is. Basically, I’ll bet you a cookie that the majority of data that gets into those systems with spreadsheets and transcripts and documents and we’re saying all these things is still junk, is still unuseful. Katie Robbert – 21:23 And so you’re going to have a lot of data in there that’s still garbage because if you’re just automatically uploading everything that’s available and not being picky and not cleaning it and not setting standards, you’re still going to have junk. Christopher S. Penn – 21:37 Yes, you’ll still have junk. Or the opposite is you’ll have issues. For example, maybe you are at a tech company and somebody asks the internal Copilot, “Hey, who’s going to the Coldplay concert this weekend?” So yes, data security and stuff is going to be an equally important part of that to know that these systems have access that is provisioned well and that has granular access control. So that, say, someone can’t ask the internal Copilot, “Hey, what does the CEO get paid anyway?” Katie Robbert – 22:13 So that is definitely the other side of this. And so that gets into the other topic, which is data privacy. I remember being at the agency and our team used Slack, and we could see as admins the stats and the amount of DMs that were happening versus people talking in public channels. The ratios were all wrong because you knew everybody was back-channeling everything. And we never took the time to extract that data. But what was well-known but not really thought of is that we could have read those messages at any given time. And I think that’s something that a lot of companies take for granted is that, “Oh, well, I’m DMing someone or I’m IMing someone or I’m chatting someone, so that must be private.” Christopher S. Penn – 23:14 It’s not. All of that data is going to get used and pulled. I think we talked about this on last week’s podcast. We need to do an updated conversation and episode about data privacy. Because I think we were talking last week about bias and where these models are getting their data and what you need to be aware of in terms of the consumer giving away your data for free. Christopher S. Penn – 23:42 Yep. But equally important is having the internal data governance because “garbage in, garbage out”—that rule never changes. That is eternal. But equally true is, do the tools and the people using them have access to the appropriate data? So you need the right data to do your job. You also want to guard against having just a free-for-all, where someone can ask your internal Copilot, “Hey, what is the CEO and the HR manager doing at that Coldplay concert anyway?” Because that will be in your enterprise email, your enterprise IMs, and stuff like that. And if people are not thoughtful about what they put into work systems, you will see a lot of things. Christopher S. Penn – 24:21 I used to work at a credit union data center, and as an admin of the mail system, I had administrative rights to see the entire system. And because one of the things we had to do was scan every message for protected financial information. And boy, did I see a bunch of things that I didn’t want to see because people were using work systems for things that were not work-related. That’s not AI; it doesn’t fix that. Katie Robbert – 24:46 No. I used to work at a data-entry center for those financial systems. We were basically the company that sat on top of all those financial systems. We did the background checks, and our admin of the mail server very much abused his admin powers and would walk down the hall and say to one of the women, referencing an email that she had sent thinking it was private. So again, we’re kind of coming back to the point: these are all human issues machines are not going to fix. Katie Robbert – 25:22 Shady admins who are reading your emails or team members who are half-assing the documentation that goes into the system, or IT staff that are overloaded and don’t have time to configure this shiny new tool that you bought that’s going to suddenly solve your knowledge expertise issues. Christopher S. Penn – 25:44 Exactly. So to wrap up, the MIT study was decent. It was a decent study, and pretty much everybody misinterpreted all the results. It is worth reading, and if you’d like to read it yourself, you can. We actually posted a copy of the actual study in our Analytics for Marketers Slack group, where you and over 4,000 of the marketers are asking and answering each other’s questions every single day.

It's Casual Freebie Friday on the Majority Report, in fact so casual that Matt and Emma aren't even here today. On today's show: In reaction growing economic anxiety and the looming stagnation Trump taps on his friend from the Heritage Foundation, Scott Moore to print off some big, beautiful charts showing numbers "no one has ever seen". Turns out there is nothing to worry about. The old numbers wrong and these new numbers are right. Phew. Osita Nwanevu joins the show for a great conversation about Democracy and his case for a new American founding. You can preorder Osita's book The Right of the People now and it will hit the shelves next Tuesday. We are then joined by Marc Maron who discusses the winding down of his WTF podcast, the state of comedy and his new special "Panicked" out now on HBO. Stephen Miller is trying to distract from Texas GOP remapping by spreading lies about the census. Harry "Emden" Enten has some positive news for Democrat polling although it could be a lot better if Dems would any kind of vision for the country. Benjamin Netanyahu is interviewed on Fox where explicitly states that Israel intends to take full control of Gaza but don't worry, he promises to give it back. Nancy Mace is asked a simple question to which she answers with accusations of misogyny towards the female reporter. Charlie Kirk displays some real misogyny as he describes America as a toxic-feminist state and claims Trump to be a beacon of masculinity. Cue YMCA.

It's Wednesday and Sam is hosting solo today On today's show: On CNBC Donald Trump told people to watch Harry “Emden” on CNN to see how great his approval ratings are. So, we checked out Harry Enten and it turns out Trump was lying, his approval ratings are barely above second term Nixon's. On the 80th anniversary of the US dropping the atom bomb on Hiroshima, we are joined by filmmaker Greg Mitchell to discuss his new film: The Atomic Bowl: Football at Ground Zero and Nuclear Peril Today. The documentary explores a football game that US service-members played on ground zero of Nagasaki. Associate Professor of Political Science at Stanford and publisher of On Data & Democracy , Adam Bonica joins us to discuss his piece The Mothership Vortex: An Investigation Into the Firm at the Heart of the Democratic Spam Machine In the Fun Half: ICE is staging arrests for photo ops in a disgusting display of fascism. Donald Trump rambles to Joe Kernen about how migrant farm workers are born to do that kind of work.”They don't get bad backs, if they get a bad back they die.” Andrew Cuomo goes on the Brian Lehrer Show to spread more lies as he takes credit for universal pre-k.

It's Monday Fun Day on the Majority Report! On today's show: Donald Trump claims the Bureau of Labor Statistics manipulated job reports to help Kamala Harris win the election—conveniently forgetting that last year he said those same reports were terrible for her. We're joined by Daniel Hunter and Erica Chenoweth to discuss the shrinking window for authoritarian pushback and what effective resistance looks like. To learn more, check out Choose Democracy and Noncooperation Library - Freedom Trainers In the Fun Half: Texas Democratic State Representatives flee the state to break quorum and block a GOP redistricting push as Govenor Perry threatens them with felony charges. A pro-tariff knife manufacturer realizes too late that tariffs are slicing into his business. Patrick Bet-David hosts Tomi Lahren for a segment on antisemitism, where she argues Jewish students will migrate to southern schools for “safety.” All that and more—plus your calls and IMs!   The Congress switchboard number is (202) 224-3121.

It's Emmajority Report Thursday! On today's show: After facing significant backlash, Scott Bessent makes a half-hearted attempt to walk back his comments about using Trump "accounts" as a backdoor to privatize Social Security. Silky Shah, author of Unbuild Walls: Why Immigrant Justice Needs Abolition, joins us to discuss how immigration policy fuels mass incarceration. Then, Tim Sahay, co-editor of the Polycrisis newsletter, stops by to talk about the crumbling foundations of neoliberalism and what comes next. In the Fun Half: Brandon Sutton and Matt Binder join us as we kick things off with Cory Booker's passionate floor speech—no, not about Gaza, Epstein, or austerity—but about a procedural technicality in a bill he supported twice. We break down the Senate vote on Bernie Sanders' failed proposal to block additional arms shipments to Israel—and Bernie's ongoing refusal to say the word “genocide.” Plus: a deep-pocketed centrist enters the race for Jerry Nadler's seat, borrowing stylistic cues from Zohran Mamdani, minus the actual policy platform.

It's Hump Day at the Majority Report! On today's show: Donald Trump freely admits that he was aware that young girls trafficked by Epstein and Maxwell were "taken" from the spa at Mar-a-Lago—and even claims to remember their names. We're joined by Minnesota State Senator Omar Fateh, the DFL-endorsed candidate for Mayor of Minneapolis, to discuss the city's political challenges and what's at stake in the upcoming election. Later, Dr. Ambereen Sleemi—a Brooklyn-based urogynecologist and Director of International Medical Response—joins us to share her experience volunteering for four weeks at Nasser Hospital in Gaza. In the Fun Half: Krystal Ball holds Sen Elissa Slotnick's feet to the fire on Breaking Points Andrew Cuomo sort of backs off his decision to defend war criminal, Benjamin Netanyahu from ICC charges. Tim Pool melts down over receiving backlash for clutching his pearls over a South Park episode.

It's News Day Tuesday… or Tuesday News Day. Either way, it's Tuesday. On today's show: Charlie Hurt and Charlie Kirk join Fox & Friends Weekend to argue that deporting migrant workers would create job opportunities for American children—like picking blueberries or working construction. Jewish-Israeli refusenik Iddo Elam joins us to discuss his recent imprisonment for refusing to serve in the IDF. We also explore how Israeli children are indoctrinated from a young age to view military service as sacred, and how the average Israeli perceives American media coverage of the conflict. In the Fun Half: Laura Loomer stops by the Patrick Bet-David Podcast to settle her beef with Nazi influencer Nick Fuentes—and shockingly, her issues with him aren't related to him being a NAZI. A Republican Senate candidate in Georiga (yes, spelled like that) has trouble spelling the state he hopes to represent. Meanwhile, Senator Jon Ossoff understands that a more progressive platform is what works with purple state voters. And finally, RFK Jr. claims a Harvard doctor is curing schizophrenia with… dietary changes. Seed oils make the brain boil.

It's a Fun Day Monday on the Majority Report! Former Secretary of State and garage rocker, Antony Blinken puts down his guitar to make a podcast appearance where he blames the genocide in Gaza on protestors for not condemning Hamas enough. Author Brian Goldstone joins the us to discuss his new book There is No Place for Us: Working and Homeless in America , exploring the roots and rise of historic homelessness in the U.S. In the Fun Half—where fun is never guaranteed but sometimes sneaks in—we examine how Benjamin Netanyahu's English-language messaging doesn't quite match what he's saying in Hebrew. Trump lands in Scotland, offering incoherent ramblings while UK PM Keir Starmer cleans the sod off his golf cleats with his tongue. Jeremy Corbyn launches a new party in the UK—and it's off to a strong start. It's almost as if people are not happy with milquetoast centrists that do f*** all. In masculine news, brawny broadcasters Charlie Kirk and Tucker Carlson mourn the supposed "hyper-feminization" of corporate America. All that, plus your IMs. The Congress switchboard number is (202) 224-3121. You can use this number to connect with either the U.S. Senate or the House of Representatives.

It's Casual Friday on the Majority Report: A pregnant woman in Tennessee is denied medical care under the state's Medical Ethics Defense Act—because she was unmarried, which conflicted with the clinic's so-called “Christian values.” We're joined by Zeteo News Editor-in-Chief Mehdi Hasan to discuss the mass starvation in Gaza, the ongoing Epstein cover-up, and his recent appearance on Jubilee's Surrounded. In the Fun Half: Andrew Cuomo appears on CNBC to reflect on losing the primary—and lays out a firm policy agenda focused on fearmongering, from anti-Semitism panic to Red Scare tactics. The chairman of the FCC openly calls for a media “course correction”—a not-so-subtle threat to align with the Trump agenda or risk cancellation. South Park takes a big swing at Trump's little thing as Tim Pool clutches his pearls. All that and more plus IMs.   The Congress switchboard number is (202) 224-3121.

It's Thursday, and that means you get an Emmajority Report! On today's show: The official DHS X account posts a racist painting featuring Nazi-coded text. A resurfaced 2010 deposition shows Jeffrey Epstein pleading the Fifth when asked about socializing with Donald Trump and underage girls. Archival footage of a 17-year-old Stephen Miller reveals his early White Nationalist leanings. Rep. Greg Casar (D-TX) joins us to discuss Trump's plan to gerrymander Texas to “pick up 5 seats really quick,” and his proposed legislation to ban dystopian “Surveillance Pricing.” Then, Brandon Sutton and Matt Binder join us for the Fun Half: Binder walks us through the lowlights of Hulk Hogan's life. Ryan Grim of Breaking Points reveals Israel's involvement in wiretapping the White House during the Bill Clinton-Lewinsky scandal.

It's Monday, and allegedly a fun day. First, Tulsi Gabbard tries to worm her way back into Trump's good graces with a fresh Obama conspiracy theory, while Trump shares an AI-generated video of Obama being “arrested” by FBI agents. In an especially desperate attempt to shift attention away from Epstein headlines, Trump threatens to block a deal for the Washington Commanders' new stadium—unless they bring back the team's old name. Then we're joined by journalist Matt Duss to discuss his new piece in Foreign Policy, “The Biden Administration Lied About Gaza. It's Time to Hold Them Accountable.” Later, Candace Rondeaux, author of Putin's Sledgehammer, joins us to break down Russia's war in Ukraine and the Wagner Group's role in meddling in U.S. elections. In the Fun Half we watch Mehdi Hasan debate 20 far-right panelists in Jubilee's Surrounded series. Andrew Cuomo left his home in Westchester Country to visit Long Island to raise money for his New York City mayoral race and someone was kind enough to secretly record his speech. Turns out it was voter turnout that caused his defeat by 12 points. Fox News does some "embedded journalism" by sending a reporter to Central Florida for a puff piece that covers "consensual interactions" like finger printing workers for a national immigrant data base.

It's Monday, and we've got two great guests lined up. But first, we watch Rep. Maxwell Frost (D-FL) recount his gut-wrenching visit to what he calls the "Alligator Auschwitz." Then we're joined by Wesley Cheek, assistant professor at Massachusetts Maritime Academy, to discuss the deep-rooted corruption and dysfunction within FEMA. Later, Chris Geidner of Law Dork returns to break down the latest Supreme Court rulings—and the nine-mile stare worn by everyone seriously covering this administration. In the Fun Half We kick things off with possibly the least fun person alive, Tom Homan, as he backpedals on what qualifies as "reasonable suspicion. In Hakeem Jeffries' interview with Punchbowl News, he appears to spread the false claim that Zohran Mamdani called to "Globalize the Intifada." We revisit the Bulwark episode where the smear originated—and confirm Mamdani never said any such thing. Also, so what if he did? All that, plus your IMs and a whole lot more.
