The Pop Culture Therapy of Open Mike Eagle

Put me on that TV screen because pop culture is forever.

After a terrible year, Open Mike Eagle gave us Anime, Trauma & Divorce in 2020 -- an album equal parts heartbreaking and humourous, it explores how the media we consume can help us heal from the painful and traumatic life events we experience.
