Hot Ones is a YouTube interview show with "hot questions and even hotter wings". Hosted by Sean Evans, the show puts celebrities into the literal hot seat, where they answer wide-ranging questions while munching down on chicken (or tofu) wings that get increasingly spicier. And as the Scovilles go up, their guard comes down.

Their reward for subjecting themselves to this feast of fiery fowl? A 30 second plug for whatever they'd like... and some painful shits the next day (or in the middle of the show, in some cases.) And if you chicken out? You end up in the Hall of Shame.

New episodes of the show drop on YouTube every Thursday at 11 AM. The show just began its fourth season. Each season switches up the hot sauce lineup a little bit. And the guests have gotten more and more famous.

If you are new to the show, check out the full season playlists below. Or just check out the classic episodes. And come back every Thursday for a new Hot One!

Hall of Shame

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

I think these are going to be my new high/drunk guilty pleasure.

 

[SirMossyBloke]

The reason YouTube was invented.

Also, got me into chicken wings and hot sauce in a huge way. Everyone needs to watch at least one episode.

 

[ColonialHawk]

Best hot sauce and chicken wings based interview show in the world.

 

[Fuchsdh]

What's the Hall of Shame for? People who didn't finish the full set?

 

[Slayven]

Dude is a crazy good interviewer

 

[ColonialHawk]

What's the Hall of Shame for? People who didn't finish the full set?

Yeah

 

[Dereck]

Did y'all see Cara Delevingne's haircut

 

[Sp3eD]

One of the best shows on YouTube.

I have bottles of blairs mega death, da bomb, mad dog 357 thanks to this show. Love them all

Have a veil of one called satans blood which I am too scared to try...

Just watch DJ Khaled. He is the king of that wall, for so many different reasons.

Have you tried eating along with any of the interviews?

 

[Ruruja]

Watched a load of these a few months ago, they're really fun.

 

[mr jones]

I just found out about Keke Palmer. Cotdam.

 

[zerotol]

Here's their line up. Valentina and crystal can be found in most grocery stores. Several others can be found at Heat Hot Sauce shop online https://heathotsauce.com/pages/shop-by-brand but are suddenly sold out. Must be from the popularity of this show.

Valentina black label
Crystal
Secret Aardvark habanero
Queen majesty scotch bonnet & ginger
Hot Ones fiery chipotle
Dirty Dick's
Torchbearer zombie apocalypse
Da bomb beyond insanity
Blair's mega death
Hot Ones the last dab

 

[MyleMan1010]

I bought a bottle of Mad Dog 357 because of this show, and now it's gone. Lame! I guess I'm gonna have to buy a bottle of their new sauce when it goes on sale.

 

[smoothj]

I'm a hot sauce fiend thanks to this show. I have most of the got sauces on this show barring the final 2 sauces. For some reason the hottest one to me was pain 100%. It's not even a ghost pepper sauce but god damn son.

 

[TheOddOne]

 

[Einchy]

Best show on YouTube.

 

[Dominator]

Love this show, I've seen every episode. Glad somebody made a thread, thanks OP.

 

[the_firewithin]

The key and Peele one was definitely one of the best

 

[KeyBladerXIII]

Khaled's performance was shameful.

Russell Brand and Key and Peele are my favorites.

 

[Kadin]

Did y'all see Cara Delevingne's haircut

I don't normally like that haircut but on her I'm okay with it. I actually like it the more I see it.

This was the first one I watched and it hooked me. They were just so good in it.

 

[D i Z]

Been watching this all day and just finished Padma Lakshmi absolutely owning the platter.

 

[Lifejumper]

Best show.

 

[Brakke]

I don't know shit about Khaled except the "you played yourself" meme and here's the dude out here saying it like twenty times in ten minutes. Is he a self-parody? Is that his thing?

I was losing it when he was ready to bail on Cholula. The "tell me about a time you took an L" question was savage.

 

[Gattsu25]

Cara Delevingne's episode was fucking hilarious.

 

[chadtwo]

Just dropping by to say this show rules. Was unaware of the availability of tofu wings. Whose done it who's a vegetarian?

 

[The Kree]

Keke Palmer is indestructible.

 

[Ampersands]

Nice, somebody made an OT for this show. I know the hot wing gimmick is the main appeal of the show but the host is a pretty good interviewer.

I suggest you guys check out the Jay Pharoah episode. They get along pretty well and Jay does some great impressions.

 

[Sp3eD]

Have you tried eating along with any of the interviews?

I've never been one to make good chicken wings, but I defeintely could just do just grilled chicken strips rolled in each one. I think I might do that for next show being that I have at least 6 of the ones featured on the show in my fridge (got some tapitio, Tabasco, and Siracha for the low teir along with the ones mentioned before.). Maybe I'll do a dab of satans blood to make up for the others I'm missing lol

Thank you for the idea!

 

[LProtag]

This show made me order the Queen Majesty hot sauce sampler pack.

 

[Plywood]

I really enjoyed the one with Coyote Peterson of Brave Wilderness.

 

[TheFNEffecT]

Love this show! Thanks to it my coworkers and I have a plethora of hot sauces in our office.

I think my favorite one was Eric Andre, he was losing his mind 😂

 

[gutshot]

Just dropping by to say this show rules. Was unaware of the availability of tofu wings. Whose done it who's a vegetarian?

Russell Brand had vegan wings.

 

[Zabka]

TINASHE WHERE YOU AT?

 

[Khalifa Jayy]

Subbing to watch this at home.

 

[Einchy]

Khaled lost all anit-fuck boy status since he didn't even finish the wins. How are you going to put the hinges on the fuck boy's hands when you are one?

 

[aparisi2274]

The S3 finale with Rogen and Cooper was good, and the S4 premiere with Cara was funny.

 

[traveler]

Dude puts in more research for his guests than 99% of interviewers out there. Wish the average journalistic outlet could match him.

 

[Permanently A]

Been watching for a while, really like the show and the quality of the questions.

Who's the superfan that interviews Sean Evans in one of the episodes?

 

[BlueTsunami]

Cara Delevingne's episode was fucking hilarious.

She likes dirty dicks

 

[Bear]

The show's slogan always bugged the hell out of me but I really like it overall. Like all interview shows, the quality of individual episodes depends on the guest(s) but when it's good, it's really good. Sean does his research and knows how to draw interesting answers out of them, plus the show's gimmick is genuinely clever since many of the guests start to respond very differently when the really hot stuff kicks in.

I stumbled across this a long time ago and didn't think I'd get hooked but it totally won me over.

Pretty sure RZA was the first to get the vegan wings. I think they changed what they used to replace meat in the vegan wings some point but I could be wrong.

i kept picturing her as emma watson

Not sure why you would ruin the experience like that, but hey. Do you.

 

[Tubie]

About damn time someone made a Hot Ones OT!

Best show on Youtube.

No problem, I got the same ones you do except for Satan's blood. I was watching and I kept thinking to myself how long I would last haha, I'm going to try to get my hands on the ones that I don't have.

 

[Jedi2016]

The one with Neil DeGrasse Tyson is worth watching. Dude can handle some hot.

I really liked that one.

I'm not a religious watcher of the show or anything, but I liked the Key & Peele and Eric Andre episodes as well.
