"Fans have loved saucing their chicken with our famous hot sauces, but now we're excited to deliver the 'Hot Ones' experience directly on the chicken strip in one convenient package," he said.
Complex Media is the parent company of First We Feast, which is a "food, drink and pop culture-focused online destination," according to their website.
It is home to popular shows including "Hot Ones," "The Burger Show," and "Feast Mansion."
"Hot Ones" premiered on YouTube in 2015. The premise of the show involves host Sean Evans interviewing celebrities from Melissa McCarthy to Jennifer Lawrence while eating increasingly spicier chicken wings.
As of August, the show has aired 296 episodes spanning 21 seasons. "Hot Ones" has been nominated for a Daytime Emmy Award for outstanding entertainment talk show, and Evans has been nominated for his hosting.
The show inspired a spin-off TV game show, "Hot Ones: The Game Show," in 2020, in which contestants compete against one another for a chance to win $25,000.

- Smoky Green Chile Cheesesteak – features "Hot Ones" Los Calientes Verde
- Hot Habanero Pepperoni & Sausage – features "Hot Ones" Los Calientes Rojo
