**Zac Stevens** (0:01)
Hot take Tuesday on the DNVR Broncos Podcast, part of Spirit Week 2026
And what's the hottest take that we've got? Bo Nix for MVP, Broncos winning the Super Bowl, something even spicier? Let's break it down live from the Xfinity studio here inside the DNVR Bar. Arcade to my left, Hank to my right. We got you here behind the camera, and Zac rocking and rolling with you today, fellas. Are we keeping cool on this hot take Tuesday?

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (0:31)
It's not that hot. I didn't even think it was that hot yesterday.

**Zac Stevens** (0:36)
Oh, brother. Yesterday. Did you go outside?

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (0:39)
I did a lot.

**Henry Chisholm** (0:40)
Oh, wow.

**Zac Stevens** (0:41)
It was hot. 98 degrees.

**Henry Chisholm** (0:43)
Wow.

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (0:43)
I think that there's no difference between 90 and 99

**Zac Stevens** (0:48)
So but 100

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (0:49)
That's when you start to be like, oh shit.

**Zac Stevens** (0:51)
So but 90 See, that's a hot take right there because 98 is closer to 100 than 98 is to 90 So just like scientifically, the science would say that's that's too hot of a take to be real.

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (1:03)
Yeah, the science would say that. But like, I don't know. I played golf on Sunday. I think it was 95
It was hot, but not enough to complain about it.

**Henry Chisholm** (1:13)
Yeah, it was when we went to Miami. We landed at midnight and it was 80 degrees. But when you step out there, like you're like, oh my God, I've never been this hot before.

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (1:21)
There's something about the sun being down and it's still being hot. Yeah, that hits different.

**Henry Chisholm** (1:27)
Yeah, like the humidity or whatever it is. But that was the hottest I've ever been.

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (1:30)
When we were launching PHNX, that was the hottest I've ever been. And we would work these crazy 16-hour days and then we'd want to get back and just have a beer on the patio in the back. And it would be midnight.
And it was too hot to sit out there and have a beer.

**Zac Stevens** (1:47)
Yeah.

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (1:47)
That's when I was like, this is stupid.

**Zac Stevens** (1:49)
If you want to do anything outside there, it's like at 5 a.m. Yeah, so I tried to go golfing.

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (1:55)
First tee time, I think it was like 630 And it was muggy, which I wasn't expecting because it's so dry there.

**SPEAKER_4** (2:03)
But I think like the sprinklers on the golf course, then the heat just starts to pull through.

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (2:09)
I was like, I'd almost rather just be hot.

**Zac Stevens** (2:11)
I mean, 44% humidity in Phoenix today with 105 We're getting people all around the country chiming in with what they're looking at. In San Diego, it's 90 degrees at 10 a.m. I thought it was always 75 degrees in San Diego.
Salt Lake City, it got up to 109 degrees on Sunday. That's hot. Just crazy. As long as it's not 98 degrees. If it's above that, then boy, it's hot in Ryan's eyes.

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (2:35)
No, it has to be triple digits.

**Zac Stevens** (2:37)
Oh, it's gotta be triple digits for it to be hot. So it's cool here. But let's see if we can heat this room up with some sizzling hot takes. So how are we gonna do this, Ryan? You're going to be the judge. Henry and I are gonna be throwing some hot takes.
We're gonna break them down. We're going to debate each hot take. So I'll throw one out. Then Henry will say why it's... How do we want to phrase it?

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (3:02)
Why he doesn't agree or why it won't happen.

**Zac Stevens** (3:04)
Why it's wrong. And he has to take that side for each debate. So keep that in mind. It's not necessarily...

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (3:10)
Gotta play devil's advocate.

**Zac Stevens** (3:11)
Gotta play devil's advocate in this hot place that we're playing Hot Take Tuesday in. And then he'll do it. And then he'll say one. And then Ryan, at the each of every one of them, or at the end of every one of them, there we go. Ryan is going to say which side he takes here. And so we want your input in the chat. Give us your hot takes and maybe we'll steal some of them. But then also tell us whose side you are on. And let's dive in. And I'm gonna start with the first hot take here.
And my hot take is the Broncos will win more championships in their brand new headquarters than they won in the last one.
