It’s a massively popular YouTube series that time and time again delivers very enlightening and enjoyable long form discussions with massive celebrities, hosted by a cool guy with a gift for getting more out of his guests than every sycophantic late night TV host (hack) put together. and they eat wings.

Crazyman Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 btw would Axl being on Hot Ones be the greatest professional choice (outside of the reunion) he's made in the last 30ish years? Probably. But they don't want him...and what's he gonna promote? Leg 100 of the "Never ending in this lifetime" tour? It is what it is at this point, unfortunately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should check it out, it's actually pretty enjoyable. Now if you're looking for the 60 minutes/Dan Rather interview type of thing, then you've taken the wrong turn😄 I think it would be hilarious to have Axl on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yeah, he doesn't have an album to promote, but he can just go on it and not promote anything specific No tv show/interviewer is going to turn down Axl Rose if he showed willingness to work with them. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d agree Axl is long past his ‘zeitgeist’ moment, but with his ‘legend’ status, coupled with his elusiveness, and ongoing commitment to a full press-embargo, I imagine he’d be a pretty hot ticket for any show. Remember when he just showed up on Kimmel and everyone collectively shit themselves? He wasn’t even really promoting anything. Or was it The Joint residency? Regardless, most shows would have him on in a second. The one single thing Axl has done very well is preserve his mystique. Joe Rogan has said in a podcast with Theo Von that he’d love Axl to come on. Joe’s the alpha in this podcast era… this is a guy turning down opportunities to meet presidents… if he wants Axl, I’d imagine everyone does.

Maybe you should check out the episodes with Dave Grohl, Lenny Kravitz, Post Malone, etc to get a sense of what it's like, it's more entertaining than any other interview show I can think of...

He was promoting the Joint residency because it was selling that poorly. Joe Rogan or Bill Maher's podcast would be the best venues for him to ever have an interview...but he won't. Hot Ones is too popular of a show these days to have him. Look at who they interview - in demand actors/actresses and musicians promoting current work...not "legends" I feel like people forget that he hasn't released an album on the "zeitgeist" of pop culture (truly, unless you consider the streaming records CD broke on Myspace 15 years ago) in more than 30 years? He's not even the "Howard Hughes of RnR" anymore. Just because he means a ton to some of the people on here doesn't mean every media person is shitting themselves to interview him right now. I hate to be blunt to those who think otherwise, but unless you're talking about a "geriatric interviewing another geriatric" type show no one is beating the door down to interview Axl Rose in 2023. He's not the pop culture "icon" or whatever he was in 1992...and I'm sure he's thankful for that as well. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hot Ones has had legends like Lenny Kravitz and LL Cool J somewhat recently, but yea I'd definitely prefer to see Axl on Club Random or JRE.

I knew those two in particular were going to be brought up and I'd (slightly) push back by saying they're the only two "old" musicians to be on the show recently (aka the past year or more) and both were promoting a (legit) project. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True. I think Slash would be the best GNR member for a Hot Ones interview. Whether it's music or horror movies he's usually got something to promote, he's more famous to the general public, and he'd probably be more entertaining than Axl or Duff. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cineater Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 I so love this. That's putting Axl in the hot seat. Way cool. I'm mean hot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaghetti4twenty Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 This would be so entertaining and also a great casual media platform for Axl where he probably wouldn’t be asked questions deeper than surface level Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-W.A.R- Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 I can 100% see Slash on this show. It's kinda surprising that he hasn't been already. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BucketEgg Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 Based on what Wikipedia says the release schedule is ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Hot_Ones_episodes ), season 17 to 20 consistently has 12 episodes, and the new season starts sometime in the month after the previous one. Each season goes for around 4 months (including the start and end months) So with this, I predict the new season of Hot Ones will start sometime in late May, will run for May, June, July, and August. If the timing-predictions are correct, by the end of August this year, we will know if Axl is definitely not on for season 21. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-W.A.R- Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 If Axl were to grant an interview i see it being Howard Stern. It's someone Axl is familiar with and i think Howard would go for the whole "elusive interview" thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamillos Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 I can’t really imagine this (and only know this show from a description), but considering Axl never does anything the normal way (like an interview, at last), there may be a slight chance of this happening. I’d still prefer a classic interview, but then again, as long as we get some new Axl appearance, who am I to say no. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosmo Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 Sean is such a good researcher and interviewer that if it weren't for TB vetoing hard and unconfortable querstions, he'd be the one to ask about lost songs and demos, unfinished projects and whatnot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
