Cold Ones is an Australian podcast and YouTube web series hosted by Chad Roberts (from Joji) and Max Stanley (from MaxMoeFoe).

During the show, the hosts and the guest go through a typical podcast format, but in the meanwhile they also get increasingly intoxicated with alcoholic drinks, in an attempt to provide absurdity for viewers to enjoy. In the meantime, hosts Roberts and Stanley also test sponsored products, mostly relating to tech, drinking games and cooking. [1]

Cold Ones has had a variety of notable guests, including Jacksfilms, Michael Reeves, HowToBasic, Twomad, Belle Delphine, Ludwig, Smosh's Ian Hecox, Sean Evans, PewDiePie, and Bbno$. [2] The podcast has made a large following; gaining 3.09 million subscribers on YouTube, [3] making $102,000 a month on Patreon, [4] and launching their own alcoholic beverage called "Grog" in Australia, [5] with later distribution in New Zealand and California.
