“I created Counsel Culture to help destigmatize male mental health. It’s a safe space and a brave place to allow men to discuss their emotions and allow themselves to learn, grow and heal,” said Cannon, host and executive producer. “Instead of canceling each other, we are counseling each other. We have a rotating panel where we will discuss necessary topics, and nothing is off limits.”
Counsel Culture joins the recently announced Wish List Games, a multi-episode holiday event hosted by Cannon, which is produced by MGM Alternative. Content creator Lele Pons will join the Emmy-nominated host on the game show as a special correspondent. Wish List Games is a high-energy, half-hour game show where contestants play for the chance to win everything on their Amazon Wish Lists, totaling up to $25,000.
