Most leaders are asking the same question about AI: Will it make their teams more productive—or slowly erode the very skills they're trying to build? In this special episode, as part of the recent HBR Leadership Summit 2026, University of Pennsylvania's Angela Duckworth says her long-standing research on grit—and the fact the most successful people aren't simply persistent, they stay committed to long-term goals while adapting their tactics as the world changes—is more relevant than ever in the age of generative AI. Rather than replacing human capability, she explains, AI can become a powerful coach that accelerates learning, if people treat it as something to learn from, not simply something that does the work for them. Duckworth's new book is Situated: Find the People and Places That Bring Out Your Best.

The Red Sox have won THIRTEEN straight games in a row and are two games above .500. How in the world did they find a way to save the season?
The Cincinnati Reds have the chance to make unprecedented MLB history. Hunter Greene and Chase Burns have the arm talent to be the first “Black Ace” teammate duo since integration. Greene is under contract with the Reds until 2030, and Burns until 2033. The sky is the limit for this duo. TRIVIA: Can you name the last set of African American starting pitcher teammates to win 10 games in the same season?
Will Todd Blanche be parred sometime after he's likely confirmed as the Attorney General of the United States? Will bar regulators for New York and the District of Columbia do the right thing to ensure that he complies with his ethics and professional responsibilities? Popok is joined by Lawyers Defending American Democracy (LDAD) and Graves to discuss the impact of Bar complaints and Department of Justice alumni protest letters in both the confirmation process and its aftermath.

The healdines of the day by The Indian Express
Popok reports that the Trump DOJ as of today continues to take the position that Todd Blanche's 1 paragraph "amendment" to the phony settlement agreement between Trump and his own IRS and DOJ, provides Trump and his family and associates with immunity from any future tax audit liability or criminal prosecution, relying on a distortion of Judge Williams' scathing ruling against them. Blanche has tried to get out in front of it by telling Senate Democrats that he is a victim of a "hatchet" job by Judge Williams!

In breaking news, Popok reports on fellow independent journalist and commentator Katie Phang requesting that Judge Sullivan find AG Nominee Todd Blanche in Contempt of Court and fine him $1,000 a day for violating court orders requiring the production of certain Epstein Files. Popok reports that in the last 18 hours, Blanche, up for confirmation as AG, has lost his shepherd and protector in the process, Sen. Lindsey Graham, got branded a fraudster by a federal judge and referred for bar discipline, and now is on the likely receiving end of contempt findings by another federal judge.

CardioNerds co-chairs Dr. Dinu Balanescu and Dr. Billy Joe Mullinax, along with FIT lead Dr. Shiavax Rao, discuss the evolving landscape of randomized controlled trials in pulmonary embolism with Dr. Jay Giri, interventional cardiologist, Associate Professor of Medicine, and Director of the Cardiovascular Catheterization Laboratories at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania. This episode examines the historical evidence behind systemic thrombolysis, the emergence of catheter-directed therapies and mechanical thrombectomy, and the landmark RCTs – STORM-PE, PEERLESS, HI-PEITHO, and PEERLESS II – that are reshaping intermediate-risk PE management. The discussion highlights challenges in PE trial design, the critical importance of clinical deterioration as an endpoint, and why this era represents an unprecedented wave of evidence generation in PE. Audio editing for this episode was performed by CardioNerds Intern, Dr. Julia Marques Fernandes. Dr. Dinu Balanescu and Dr. Billy-Joe Mullinax are Co-chairs for the CardioNerds PE Series, developed in collaboration with the PERT Consortium.

Pearls: Systemic thrombolysis in intermediate-risk PE reduces hemodynamic decompensation but at the cost of ~1.5–2% intracranial hemorrhage risk – a near-zero net benefit that has driven the search for safer catheter-based alternatives. “Focus on clinical deterioration, not mortality” – Due to crossover design in contemporary PE RCTs, control-arm patients who decompensate are rescued with advanced therapies, biasing mortality toward the null. Clinical deterioration is the most informative endpoint to watch in HI-PEITHO, PRAGUE-26, and PEERLESS II. HI-PEITHO is the first large RCT to demonstrate that catheter-directed fibrinolysis plus anticoagulation significantly reduces the composite of PE-related death, cardiorespiratory decompensation, or PE recurrence versus anticoagulation alone (RR 0.39; 95% CI 0.20–0.77; P=0.005), with no intracranial hemorrhage in either arm. The four major upcoming/recently reported PE RCTs (HI-PEITHO, PRAGUE-26, PEERLESS II, PE-TRACT) enroll progressively different risk populations – from the most enriched (HI-PEITHO) to the most permissive (PE-TRACT, which includes intermediate-low risk patients) – enabling a nuanced understanding of which patients benefit most from intervention. PE device clearance follows a fundamentally different FDA pathway than structural heart devices (single-arm safety/efficacy studies vs. mandated RCTs), yet market forces and clinical need have ultimately driven industry and government to sponsor large-scale RCTs – a lesson in how evidence development can evolve organically alongside regulatory frameworks. Notes: Notes drafted by Dr. Shiavax Rao. Question #1: What is the current evidence behind advanced PE therapies? Systemic thrombolysis: Sixteen RCTs over 40 years (1972–2014) enrolling nearly 2,000 patients have studied systemic thrombolysis in intermediate-risk PE. The landmark PEITHO trial (n=1,006) showed that tenecteplase reduced the composite of death or hemodynamic collapse (2.6% vs. 5.6%; P=0.015), driven primarily by reduced hemodynamic decompensation (1.6% vs. 5.0%; P=0.002). However, this came at the cost of increased major bleeding (6.3% vs. 1.5%; P

It then turns to the United States. By 1942, news of the genocide had reached American shores—but to what extent were Americans made aware of its scale and purpose? How do we explain why the story of mass murder was often minimized, buried, or delayed by the major American newspapers? What did that relative silence ultimately mean for the Jews of Europe?
