You just see miles and miles of ships and extras and warriors and horses, and you\u2019re asking yourself, \u2018Where is the crew?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo then they asked me to walk down this beach, and every 10 minutes you\u2019d hear \u2018Rolling!\u2019 and I\u2019d have to lie down and hide behind these dunes. And I kept asking myself, where are they rolling? I can\u2019t see the crew anywhere. Then eventually I got down to where Matt [Damon] was and his men, and it really felt at that moment like we were a part of something that had never been done before.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>By sauce No. 4 \u2014 Chickpotle, a creamy chickpea sauce with smoky chipotle and ghost pepper with a 4\/10 heat level \u2014 Holland and Bernthal were loosening up and trading barbs. Holland discussed how speaking in an American accent (rather than his native British) is almost like having a disguise, which makes his job as an actor easier. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut I would love to explore some more British accents because you know, as an island, we have some of the most interesting, unique, and fun accents,\u201d he told Evans. \u201cI think there\u2019s more accents in Britain than any other country.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bernthal, visibly uncomfortable from the heat of his own chicken wing, quipped, \u201cWhy does it always got to come to competition &#8230; I would go out on a on a limb to say there are more accents in America than there are in Britain.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Holland said he would \u201cdrink a shot of that hottest hot sauce\u201d to prove he\u2019s right. After some quick fact checking, \u201cHot Ones\u201d production confirmed that Holland was correct \u2014 among English-speaking countries, anyway. <\/p>\n<p>By hot sauce  No. 10 \u2014 The Last Dab: Thermageddon, described as a slow-building superhot sauce forged with Pepper X, Apollo, Carolina Reaper and Scorpion peppers, ranked at a heat level of 11\/10 \u2014 the two actors had completely lost their composure and appeared nearly drunk on hot sauce. <\/p>\n<p>Eyes red, cheeks tear-stained and foreheads pouring sweat, the two squirmed in their seats and Bernthal said he was going to be sick. Still, the \u201cOdyssey\u201d star appeared to have made it through without spewing any body fluids. <\/p>\n<p>Then Holland got up to snap a photo with Bernthal and Evans and barfed on the floor. While the actor may have been embarrassed, Bernthal cheered and Evans crowned him the first guest to lose his lunch. <\/p>\n<p>Last year, <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.latimes.com\/entertainment-arts\/awards\/story\/2025-06-09\/sean-evans-hot-ones-youtube-emmys\">Evans told The Times<\/a> that the interview format, with its squirm-inducing sauces, was a tactic to turn what might otherwise be a typical press tour interview into something raw and real. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn \u2018Hot Ones\u2019 you have those moments of people who are struggling, who are vulnerable, who are in a borderline state of panic. You have emotions that are real, and all of these things are so hard to get to in a traditional interview setting,\u201d he said. \u201cThe fact that we can create these moments, and then combine it with this thoughtful career-spanning interview, all of those elements working together, it just gives you a unique look at the celebrity guests &#8230; What we\u2019re doing is knocking them off of that pedestal down to a level that everyone can relate to.
