Hot or Cold: Arch Manning Apology Drama, LaFleur’s Ceiling & Alonso’s 300th Bomb

Pat Boyle flies solo into the late hours, sharing his latest off-air snack obsession and fielding listener sports-betting tweets before diving into a lively edition of "Hot or Cold" with producer Brandon Combs. The pair dissect the fallout surrounding Texas quarterback Arch Manning apologizing to ESPN’s Holly Rowe after laughing at an AI-generated slap video, debating whether the backlash went too far and examining the growing headache of AI slop across social media feeds. The debate heats up over Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur, questioning his play-calling consistency, in-game management, and whether his championship window in Green Bay has officially closed. Plus, the guys react live as Pete Alonso belts his milestone 300th career home run in the 9th inning, the Cleveland Guardians pull off a dramatic walk-off win to tighten the AL Central race, and Pat looks at Super Bowl odds for franchises looking to make their very first appearance.
