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.

This week on TMI, Mysonne celebrates turning 50, Tamika D. Mallory shares a “thought of the day” about “All Roads Lead to the South,” warning that Supreme Court decisions weakening Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act aim to disenfranchise Black communities nationwide, and calls for renewed organizing, voter registration, education, and resistance during “Freedom Summer.” Guest Tyneadrian Fleming, founder and CEO of Blackbird Smart Innovations, recounts her journey from being a teen mother in the Bronx through hardship to building businesses, then creating Blackbird’s QR/NFC-enabled wearable safety devices designed to share protected medical and emergency information with community members and first responders for people with disabilities, seniors, and vulnerable travelers, and Mysonne responds with criticism of a George Floyd joke made during a Kevin Hart roast and calls to stop laughing at disrespectful trauma.

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.
