First We Feast wants celebrities to roll the dice on their forthcoming new show, Hot Ones: Game Night.
Debuting on the First We Feast YouTube channel, the new game show will feature celebs moving their meeples across the board to take on different challenges and questions inspired by their personalities and backstories, winning prizes in the process, according to Variety. Those who fall behind must take on the Wings of Death.

Joe Santagato from the pop culture podcast “The Basement Yard,” will host the show, which has already announced its first few players: Doctor Mike, Neil deGrasse Tyson and Frank Alvarez.
If it’s like its Hot Ones or Hot Ones Versus, we’re in for a spicy treat.
“I’ve always been a huge fan of Hot Ones, so joining the universe and working with the First We Feast team has been incredible,” Santagato told Variety. “I grew up having game nights with friends and family, so using that as an interview format is so cool to me. You never really know someone until you’ve played a board game with them so you really get to see a new side of these guests when they’re competing and trying to win.”
Santagato is an executive producer on the new show, which means he gets to shape the game for each episode.
“I was so excited when I signed on that I forgot I’d actually have to eat insanely spicy wings every episode,” he added. “You never really get used to the spice but it’s totally worth it!”
Other Complex Media spinoffs from Hot Ones include Hot Ones Wing Pong, Pro Moves, Heat Eaters and more. The brand now has more than 27 million followers across platforms, Variety says.
Hot Ones: Game Night premieres on September 30 at 1pm EST on the First We Feast YouTube channel.
