Hot Beer, Cold Takes
Ever wonder what happens when three guys try to serve hot takes... but accidentally crack too many cold ones first? Yeah, so did we. This show was supposed to be called “Cold Beer, Hot Takes” — but let’s just say we were a few beers deep when we made the logo. Join the Hot Beer Crew each week as we dive into sports, pop culture, dumb debates, and whatever else we feel strongly (or sloppily) about. Unfiltered. Unqualified. Unexpectedly entertaining. Crack a can. Lower your expectations. And enjoy the coldest takes on the hottest topics.

It’s time to say what everyone’s thinking but no one wants to admit. In Episode 7, we fire off our most Unpopular Opinions — about relationships, clout-chasing, oversharing, the "grindset," and why summer kinda sucks.
Some takes will have you nodding. Some will make you mad. All of them are cold.

In our chaotic debut, we crack open some beers (mostly cans, obviously) and drop 12 hot takes that’ll either make you laugh or unfriend us.
