Man, it's a hot one.

What you might ask? First and foremost, three time Grammy award winning hit single "Smooth" by Carlos Santana ft. Rob Thomas of Matchbox 20. Second, "Hot Ones," the online web series produced by First We Feast and hosted by Sean Evans. If neither of these pop culture icons are on your radar, then welcome to the internet. Strap yourself in and thank me later.

Carlos Santana and Rob Thomas teamed up to create a collaboration stronger than the planet had ever seen into 1999, ushering the world into an entirely new millennium, with the release of "Smooth" on the 15-time platinum Adult Contemporary/Latin Rock album, Supernatural. A lot has happened since then, and a lot of it hasn't been good. Global warming. War. Recession. Just to name a few.

The world needs a new hero: a new collab to usher us into a  new cultural period and out of the darkness. Carlos Santana, Rob Thomas, and Sean Evans are not only the heroes we need; they're the heroes we deserve.

"Smooth" redefined the word "collaboration" when it stormed the charts in 1999. But it's 2018, and the world is in need of a collaboration that transcends radio waves and is accessible to the masses. What better way to make this a reality than to have the creators of "Smooth" (the proverbial and original "hot one") team up with Sean Evans (the host of "Hot Ones") for the ultimate collaboration?

We know the hot sauce is hot. But is it "like seven inches from the midday sun" hot? There's only one way to find out: Carlos Santana and Rob Thomas are the gatekeepers for this metric.

To Carlos Santana, Rob Thomas, Sean Evans, First We Feast, and everyone else involved, please hear our collective plea. The world needs a hero. Make this episode the hottest one of them all.
