    This week on TMI, Tamika D. Mallory and Mysonne go in on Laura Loomer's racist attack on Senate candidate Angie Nixon, breaking down why her comments are more dangerous than they seem and how the backlash is only fueling Angie's campaign. They unpack why $55 for two takeout meals has them questioning the economy, debate the internet's beef over "luxury" college dorm setups, and Mysonne sounds off on DJ Akademiks and the bloggers whose commentary keeps landing rappers like Little Durk in federal court.

  • Ballots, Blackface and Basketball
    2026/08/27

    This week on TMI, Tamika D. Mallory and Mysonne discuss unpack the emotional toll of nonstop national crises, from a vigil for Nolan Wells to developments in Karmelo Anthony’s case, extreme weather, power outages, food recalls, and a disturbing shooting involving a 15-year-old. They call for new, tech-savvy ways to connect with young people and help reduce violence.

    Tamika also sounds the alarm on voting rights, mail-in ballot restrictions, and the SAVE Act, encouraging people to vote early and get involved as election observers. The conversation continues with criticism of Target over a controversial minstrel-related item, the impact of boycotts and DEI rollbacks, and Enes Kanter’s WNBA protest which they argue distracts from more serious threats facing women and broader political issues.

  • From Tour Guide to The Breakfast Club: the Brown Girl Grinding Story Guest Loren Lorosa
    2026/08/19
    This week on TMI, Loren Lorosa sits down with Tamika D. Mallory and Mysonne for a deep dive into how she actually landed her seat at The Breakfast Club, and it wasn't luck. She walks through her start as a TMZ tour guide hustling celebrity interviews off a bus, getting "hazed" onto the news desk, and the relentless campaign of cold emails, favors, and follow-ups it took to even get in the room for a guest-hosting shot. Loren also opens up about a brutally honest conversation with an LA agent about colorism that led her to build the Brown Girl Grinding brand, and the online backlash she faced before Angie Martinez stepped in to have her back. It's a real look at what "overnight success" costs.
