At its core, THTS is a satirical take on Hot Take Culture. Nothing truly productive can come out of an hour-long show where two grown men yell at each other; that’s just not how discourse is intended to work.

‘The Hot Takes Show’ is brought to you by Powder Blue Studios, run by Executive Director Dhruv Mehra and part of the Powder Blue Media umbrella. The show was created, shot, and edited in the Chicago area.
