Kevin Hart's 'Cold as Balls' Premieres New Episodes on Netflix

Kevin Hart's interview series "Cold as Balls," where guests endure ice baths while answering questions, will debut six new episodes on Netflix this summer. The upcoming episodes were filmed live at Fanatics Fest in New York City this week. This marks a significant expansion for the show, which previously aired on Hart's Laugh Out Loud Network.

Notable guests slated to appear in the new season include tennis legend Serena Williams, former NFL star Rob Gronkowski, and rising basketball prospect Cooper Flagg. The format of "Cold as Balls" involves Hart and his guests sitting in separate ice baths, with the temperature of the water reportedly dropping to 37 degrees Fahrenheit (2.7 degrees Celsius). The show aims to elicit candid and often humorous responses from its celebrity participants under these uncomfortable conditions.

"Cold as Balls" initially premiered in 2018 and has since featured a wide array of athletes, entertainers, and public figures. The move to Netflix signifies a broader reach for the popular show, potentially introducing it to a new and larger audience. Fanatics Fest, the venue for the live filming, is an event organized by Fanatics, a sports merchandise and memorabilia company, highlighting the intersection of sports culture and entertainment.
