Hotline Feature: Crosstalk – Snacks, Geezer Sweaters, and the Great Wicked Debate
Dave Weekley, Coop, and Ryan open Hotline with a long, wonderfully unhinged crosstalk that starts with snack runs in the rain and Coop’s near-emergency almond shortage — and somehow spirals into ice cream in winter, geezer-cardigan fashion rules, and a full-blown debate over Wicked and Wicked: For Good. The trio riff on Hollywood weight-loss conspiracies, House of the Dragon, Ted Danson’s immortality, and the universal Dad Truth of sitting in the driveway listening to the radio. A classic, freewheeling Hotline open that feels like the mics were simply switched on mid-conversation.
