    Preexisting deals, police shooting babies, and Jay Williams' silence

Plus, Mysonne calls out Jay Williams for praising a White House UFC event while staying silent on the disrespect directed at Michelle Obama, and the two react to a one-year-old killed over alleged shoplifted diapers.

    The Problem With Celebrity Silence in Black Culture

    This week on TMI, Tamika D. Mallory and Mysonne AI-generated flyers, graphic designer professionalism, and the growing debate around creativity vs convenience. Is AI ruining the industry or are bad customer experiences pushing people toward ChatGPT and quick fixes? Tamika and Mysonne break down why talent alone isn’t enough anymore and why professionalism, responsiveness, and attitude matter just as much as skill. The episode also gets deeply personal and political as they unpack celebrity culture, anti-Blackness, Kevin Hart’s comments surrounding Tony Hinchcliffe, George Floyd, MAGA culture, and why some celebrities distance themselves from activists while cozying up to controversial white figures. They discuss racism, media narratives, Black accountability, voting rights, and the entertainment industry’s obsession with dysfunction and controversy. From Knicks celebrations to culture wars, AI debates, celebrity accountability, and the state of Black media, this episode is raw, passionate, funny, and unapologetically honest.

    Vote for what? Vote for who?

    This week on TMI, Tamika D. Mallory and Mysonne celebrate the Knicks sweep, discuss Mysonne nearing his 50th birthday and concerns about public health and government response, then update viewers on Until Freedom’s campaign against New York State’s “predatory” toll fees after small tolls ballooned into massive penalties. They describe organizing with state legislators, investigating the toll contractor Conduit, and planning a town hall as residents report extreme fees and license or plate impacts. Tamika responds to the argument that you can’t “vote your way out of this,” emphasizing voting must be paired with protest, boycotts, education, and building Black economic power. They critique progressive leaders, including Bernie Sanders, for silence on voting-rights rollbacks, debate strategies for building Black political power, and reject calls for Black voters to support Republicans without credible pro-Black candidates.

    State of Emergency… AGAIN. Guest: Rev. Mark Thompson

    This week on TMI, Tamika D. Mallory and Mysonne reflect on approaching 50, leadership responsibility, and the need for new energy and unity as America shifts. They frame the moment as a “state of emergency,” urging people to sound the alarm about threats to Black communities and democracy, including the Supreme Court gutting Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, voter suppression concerns like the SAVE Act, and the broader agenda of Project 2025. Reverend Mark Thompson joins to explain the historical significance of the Voting Rights Act, how disinformation and distraction shape public understanding, and how weakened protections could reduce Black representation and reshape districts. The episode calls for education, local organizing, voting, and sustained mobilization, and closes with Mysonne celebrating Nas and Jadakiss finally receiving long-overdue recognition.
