Open Mike Eagle

Open Mike Eagle, rapper extraordinaire, co-creator of New Negroes and so much more joins us today after accidentally missing the episode with his New Negroes co-creator Baron Vaughan eight years ago! And there's been some big changes in the last eight years! We start out talking about the dissolution of his marriage which MIke alludes to in the song "The Black Mirror Episode" from his fantastic 2020 album "Anime, Trauma and Divorce" and then talk about how Mike started therapy in college, his post-mariage lovelife, his cool and calm demeanor, what hardtack is and how that's a metaphor for Mike's emotions, and of course, the Silverhawks's Copper Kidd! PLUS, obvi, we answer YOUR advice questions! If you'd like to ask your own advice questions, call 323-524-7839 and leave a VM or just DM us on IG or Twitter!
