The NFL season officially arrives on Thursday, but there’s plenty of other titles coming to streaming services for non-football fans to enjoy.
Labor Day weekend can signify so many things. For some, it’s nothing more than a good excuse to take a Monday off. For others, it’s the unofficial start of fall, meaning it’s either time to celebrate the approach of Spooky Season or mourn the loss of summer.
For NFL fans, it means that the 2024 regular season is finally almost here. If you are such a fan, I’ll have complete details for how to stream the start of the season on Thursday below, and if not, I’ll have a list of new titles debuting every other day to help get you through a short work week!

The sport of competitive eating has two titans. Joey Chestnut is a 16-time winner of the Nathan’s Famous International Hot Dog Eating Contest. Takeru Kobayashi has won six times. Now, Kobayashi comes out of retirement to take on Chestnut in Las Vegas in a competition called Unfinished Beef, and Netflix streams this ultimate dogfight live on Monday, September 2, at 3/2c. Here, Chestnut and Kobayashi give a glimpse at their competitive natures and how they prep for a showdown such as this. What’s your relationship like? Are you guys friendly at all? Joey Chestnut: We’re ultra-competitive. I’m hopeful that, after the contest, we can get friendly. But we don’t have to be. Takeru Kobayashi: We don’t have a relationship at all. Is it friendly or not friendly? There isn’t any contact between us. How do you view your opponent? Chestnut: He’s capable of pushing hard.

The hot dog eating contest that helped upend the world of competitive eating is upon us, with Netflix releasing the first trailer for the long-awaited rematch between glizzy gobbling foes Joey Chestnut and Takeru Kobayashi.
The 50-second teaser has everything — and by everything, we mean dramatic narration, booming orchestral music, and some extreme close-ups of hot dogs dripping with what is presumably hot dog water and not sweat. “To be the greatest, it takes hunger few understand,” the narrator bellows.

The controversial podcaster will bring a new comedy act to Netflix live on Aug. 3.
Joe Rogan is taking off his podcasting headset in favor of a microphone and a stage this August. The podcaster, UFC commentator, and former host of “Fear Factor” is returning to Netflix with a new comedy special entitled “Burn the Boats,” which is sure to have plenty of Rogan’s in-your-face style infused throughout. Unlike past Netflix appearances, however, the new Rogan set will be live, as Netflix continues to bolster its lineup of live offerings before the true test of its abilities comes this December.
Key Details: “Burn the Boats” will stream on Netflix on Aug. 3 at 10 p.m. Et. Chris Rock was the first comedian to do a live comedy special on Netflix, followed by John Mulaney. Netflix must ensure its livestreaming technology is up to snuff before it offers two NFL games this Christmas.

Far from the bright lights of New York, Joey Chestnut still managed to make hot dogs tremble, and perhaps set up an intriguing showdown next year with a new rival.
Barred from the Nathan’s annual competition because of his endorsement deal with a vegan hot dog brand, Chestnut instead appeared at a Fort Bliss, Texas event. He downed 57 hot dogs and buns in five minutes, demolishing four competitors who managed a combined total of 49 hot dogs and buns.
In New York, Pat Bertoletti, the new Nathan’s champion, finished his day with a total of 58 hot dogs and buns.
What happens next year? Major League Eating has since walked back its Chestnut ban, potentially setting up a battle of the ages at 2025’s Nathan’s competition.
Chestnut holds the overall record there of 76 hot dogs and buns consumed.

To paraphrase George Thorogood and Hank Williams, move over old dog, a new hot dog is movin’ in: Patrick Bertoletti has won the this year’s Nathan’s Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest in Coney Island, succeeding the 16-time champ Joey Chestnut who was spit out of the competition after signing an endorsement deal with Nathan’s rival Impossible Foods.
Bertoletti, a 26-year-old Chicagoan, took the Nathan’s men’s title – aka the Mustard Belt – today by eating 58 hot dogs in 10 minutes. See video below.
Last year, Chestnut won with 62 hot dogs; his record was 76 in 2021.

Hosted by four-time Grammy-nominated country artist Mickey Guyton and Access Hollywood‘s Zuri Hall, NBC’s Macy’s 4th of July Fireworks special will feature, of course, fireworks, musical performances and appearances by special guests.
Lainey Wilson, Luis Fonsi, Tanner Adell and The War and Treaty will take the stage ahead of the fireworks display.

Additional effects include cross rings, strobing comets, waterfalls, Saturn circles, crackling pistils and special ghost pyro that alternates colors featuring multiple hues, NBC says.
The broadcast also will highlight individuals across the nation who are championing sustainability,...

The broadcast also will highlight individuals across the nation who are championing sustainability,...

When Netflix said they were getting into the live sports business, we never expected they meant this…Famed competitive eater Joey “Jaws” Chestnut will go bun-to-bun with rival Takeru Kobayashi on Labor Day in a weiner-takes-all hot dog eating competition, an announcement made in the wake of Chestnut being banned from competing at Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest on July 4th. A lot has transpired in the world of competitive eating this week, so let’s play ketchup.
Earlier this week, Joey Chestnut – who has won Nathan’s contest 16 times, including last year’s and 2021’s record-setting 76-dog day – unveiled that he had been disinvited from the Coney Island contest. This was due to Chesnut having a sponsorship with Impossible Foods, which Major League Eating deemed a “rival brand.” Chesnut took to X to express his frustrations, writing, “I was gutted to learn from the media that after 19 years...

With the Tyson vs. Paul fight on Netflix postponed until November, Netflix took the opportunity to add a more gastronomic competition to its live slate.
Ready… set… eat! It’s been a wild few days for one of the biggest stars ever in the field of competitive eating, Joey Chestnut. Normally a mainstay at the July 4 Nathan’s Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest, Chestnut has been banned from the competition this year after he signed an endorsement deal with Impossible Foods and represented one of Nathan’s competitors. But only days later, Chestnut signed an agreement with Netflix to face off against Takeru Kobayashi in a rematch from their 2009 showdown in a live event that will be streamed on Labor Day. Read more about the event below, and check out a list of other live offerings Netflix should consider pursuing now that it’s expanding its live programming beyond sports and comedy specials.

Nathan’s may have banned Joey Chestnut from the July 4 event, but he’s still going to be taking part in a hot dog-eating contest in 2024. Netflix has announced that it will live stream rivals Joey Chestnut and Takeru Kobayashi facing off in a hot dog-eating contest on Labor Day, Monday, September 2. Chestnut vs. Kobayashi: Unfinished Beef will feature the showdown that will determine the ultimate hot-dog-eating champion — in which the competitors will fight to eat the most all-beef hot dogs. The 16-time hot dog eating champion (Chestnut) and the six-time hot dog eating champion (Kobayashi) will be facing off for the first time in 15 years.

On the heels of its upcoming live bout between over-the-hill boxing great Mike Tyson and YouTuber Jake Paul, Netflix has taken another turn toward becoming The Ocho of live sporting contests.
Netflix will stream a winner-take-all hot-dog-eating contest on Labor Day between reigning Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest champ Joey Chestnut and Takeru Kobayashi, the venerable hot dog chomper Chestnut unseated. The event is being called Chestnut Vs. Kobayashi: Unfinished Beef, and while they’ve settled on September 2, they’ll announced venue and time later on.
Chestnut’s the world record-holder for eating 76 hot dogs in 10 minutes, and he has won the July 4 Coney Island event eight years in a row. If he’s Muhammad Ali of hot dog gorging, his Joe Frazier would be Kobayashi, who put the “sport” on the map in 2001 when he doubled the amount consumed by the past winner, his first of six Hot Dog Eating titles.

Grab your ketchup and mustard, because the mother of all hot dog-eating contests is here.
Joey Chestnut and Takeru Kobayashi, two of the world’s most famous competitive eaters, will participate in the ultimate hot dog-eating contest live on Netflix on Labor Day. The location and specific timing for the Sept. 2 event will be announced at a later date.
Titled “Chestnut vs. Kobayashi: Unfinished Beef,” the two eaters will embark in a rematch “that will determine the ultimate hot-dog-eating champion — in which the competitors will fight to eat the most all-beef hot dogs,” Netflix said in a release Wednesday.
“Through all of my years in competitive eating, Kobayashi stands out as my fiercest rival,” said Chestnut. “Competing against him pushed me to be so much better. I know that fans have waited a long time for another chapter of our rivalry and I can’t wait for our massive showdown live on Netflix!

Netflix is officially getting into the competitive eating business.
The streaming giant says that it will host a live streaming event on Labor Day, Sep. 2, featuring two legends of the Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest: Joey Chestnut and Takeru Kobayashi.
The live special will be called Chestnut vs. Kobayashi: Unfinished Beef, with the location and specific timing still Tbd. One thing that Netflix has confirmed: The hot dogs will be all-beef.
The two competitive eaters battled each other for years in the annual Nathan’s contest, but the last time they competed head to head was in 2009, when Chestnut beat Kobayashi in a five hot dog sudden death eat-off.
Chestnut is a 16-time Nathan’s winner (including the last eight years), but was not allowed to participate this year after inking a sponsorship agreement with Impossible Foods, which recently released a plant-based dog. His absence from the event...

The reigning champion of the Nathan’s Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest, Joey Chestnut, will not participate in this year’s Fourth of July event.
Major League Eating (Mle), the organization overseeing the annual competition, announced the decision on Tuesday and cited Chestnut’s decision to “represent another hot dog brand.”
Chestnut, affectionately known as “Jaws,” has been the dominant force in Nathan’s contest and has won the title a remarkable 16 times. His absence from the event, held at Coney Island in New York City, has disappointed both organizers and fans.
According to an Mle spokesperson, Chestnut agreed to a sponsorship deal with Impossible Foods, a company that produces plant-based hot dogs, which is seen as a direct competitor to Nathan’s Famous Hot Dogs. This move has prompted Mle to bar Chestnut from participating in the iconic event.

Chaos has consumed the world of competitive eating after 16-time Nathan’s Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest winner Joey Chestnut was banned from this year’s competition over his new sponsorship deal with Impossible Foods, a rival purveyor of plant-based franks.
Major League Eating confirmed the ban in a statement shared on social media. The statement said the organization was “devastated” (devastated!) to learn that Chestnut had “chosen to represent a rival brand that sells plant-based hot dogs rather than competing in the 2024 Nathan’s Famous Fourth of July Hot Dog Eating Contest.

Sixteen-time champion Joey Chestnut has been banned from Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest in a beef over sponsorship. It seems the folks at Major League Eating, which oversees the contest, didn’t think his reported deal with Impossible Foods was kosher.
“We are devastated to learn that Joey Chestnut has chosen to represent a rival brand that sells plant-based hot dogs rather than competing in the 2024 Nathan’s Famous Fourth of July Hot Dog Eating Contest,” Mle said in a statement.
Chestnut has won the coveted Mustard Belt — handed out to the person who eats the most hot dogs each July 4 — for eight years running and in 16 of the past 17 years. The only break in his reign came in 2015, when Matt Stonie took the title.
Not having Chestnut at this year’s event would be a big blow. He ate 62 hot dogs and buns at last year’s event.

Joey Chestnut has been banned from participating in Nathan’s Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest on July 4.
The perennial winner — who earned his 16th Mustard Belt in 2023 — has reportedly signed a deal to be a spokesperson for a rival company, which goes against brand exclusivity rules. According to The New York Post, Chestnut is representing Impossible Foods and their new plant-based frankfurter. (Update: Chestnut will face off against longtime competitor Takeru Kobayashi in a Labor Day competition for Netflix.)

There are a handful of July 4 traditions that are universal: Barbecues, fireworks, and of course the annual Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest.
The annual competition is a huge draw, with thousands making the pilgrimage to Coney Island to witness the event in person, and millions more watching on TV via ESPN, which locked up the exclusive right to the event through 2029.
Joey Chestnut is without question the most famous name in competitive eating, having won the Nathan’s event 16 times, including every year since 2016. But he will be left out of this year’s competition, Major League Eating says.
The reason? Chestnut has inked a deal to be a spokesperson for Impossible Foods, which launched a plant-based hot dog earlier this year, going against brand exclusivity rules connected to the Nathan’s competition.

Hotdog Eating Competitor Joey ‘Jaws’ Chestnut Wins Fourth of July Contest Despite Rain For 16th Time

Joey Chestnut, the eating superstar known as “Jaws,” didn’t let rain stop him from winning Nathan’s Famous Fourth of July hot dog eating contest. He earned first place after eating 62 hotdogs in just 10 minutes. This is his 16th title win.
The men’s contest had a total of 17 competitors, who came from all over the world to compete. The runner-up was Geoffrey Esper who ate 49 hot dogs in the 10 minutes.
The competition was delayed for two hours, as the sudden rain came over Coney Island.
After winning the competition, Chestnut spoke about the event. “What a roller coaster, emotionally,” he said after not giving up on the competition despite the weather.
He recalls that the rain disrupted everyone’s mindset and that, “Everybody got messed up.”

The memeable world of Netflix‘s I Think You Should Leave got more juice thanks to competitive eater Joey Chestnut. Screenshots of Chestnut chowing down on hot dogs lean into a sketch creator and comedian Tim Robinson would have written.
The hot dog theme reigns supreme on Itysl. From Robinson dressed as a hot dog who crashed the hot dog mobile into a store to Robinson choking on a hot dog he was slyly eating inside his shirt sleeve, there is no “unseeing” Chestnut’s July 4th foodfest as a Itysl sketch.
‘Tim Robinson gotta do a Joey Chestnut sketch’
Itysl fans tweeted how “Tim Robinson gotta do a Joey Chestnut sketch.” Another fan tweeted a photo of Chestnut winning the July 4th, 2023 Hot Dog Eating Contest: “I can’t believe Tim Robinson didn’t invent Joey Chestnut,” the fan wrote.

With every Fourth of July comes a few guarantees: Fireworks, cookouts, and the assurance that Joey Chestnut will hork down enough hot dogs in a 10-minute span to feed a small village. In what is practically a given at this point, Chestnut remained the Nathan’s Annual Hot Dog Eating Contest champion, consuming 62 wieners and buns for his 16th win — not enough to beat his 2021 record of 76 but more than enough to best second place by 14.

Who says the Super Bowl only happens once a year? Today, Major League Eating's most talented athletes gather in Coney Island, New York for the annual Nathan's Famous Hot Dog-Eating Contest, a July Fourth spectacular that sees competitors scarf down dozens of hot dogs in just 10 minutes. Over the past decade, one man and his iron stomach have ruled the field: Joey Chestnut, known as the Glizzy Gladiator, who has repeatedly bested his own record for most hot dogs and buns — or Hdb, as they're known in the sport — eaten in the allotted time.

Joey Chestnut has powered through to win his 15th title in the Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating contest — while also overcoming a protester who rushed the stage during the annual event.
The competition eater powered through 63 hot dogs in 10 minutes to clinch the Mustard Belt in New York City’s Coney Island on Monday, July 4.
This was Chestnut’s 16th competition, and his seventh consecutive win. But he fell short of his all-time record of 76 hot dogs in 10 minutes, which he set last year.

ESPN’s annual tradition of broadcasting Joey Chestnut stuffing his face for his country suffered a tragic mishap this year, as the sports network’s broadcast of the Nathan’s Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest suddenly lost its video feed right as the reigning champion set a new world record.
Videos of the broadcast shared on Twitter showed the competition’s video feed cutting out right as Chestnut finished his record 76th hot dog, beating his previous high for the most consumed in 10 minutes. Chestnut has now won the Nathan’s title in 14 of the last 15 years, losing only once to Matt Stonie in an upset in 2015.
But instead of the usual tongue-in-cheek praises of Chestnut’s heroic digestive system, Twitter was filled with outrage that the historic moment had been ruined by technical difficulties…along with a few “Infinity War” references.

July 4 means baseball, hot dogs, apple pie and Chevrolet. For competitive eating champion Joey Chestnut, it particularly means hot dogs.
The annual Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest today saw Chestnut set a new world record, breaking his 2020 record of 75 hot dogs and buns eaten by woofing down 76 in the timed event. He ate 12 in the first minute, and sat at 70 with 40 seconds to go, but heaved down his final six to set the record.
Chestnut did this in front of a crowd at Maimonides Park on Coney Island, a neighborhood in Brooklyn, NY. The event was televised by ESPN.
A heavy favorite heading into the event, The San Jose, Calif. resident easily beat second-place finisher Geoffrey Esper, who managed only 50 dogs. Third place finisher Nick Wehry managed to gobble 44 dogs.
Chestnut wins his 14th Mustard Belt for his efforts.

Joey Chestnut is once again the Nathan’s Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest champion. This year, he was gunning for his 14th Mustard Belt and hoping to break his own record of 75 hot dogs in 10 minutes. He did both.
It was a close count, though. At the end of the competition, Chestnut came in at a total of 76 weiners. The competitive eater credited his fans for helping him to break the record, noting that he started to slow down in the sixth minute of the contest but that their cheers pushed him forward.
Though Chestnut was the odds-on favorite going into the contest, he remained humble and focused. “Many huge favorites have failed to deliver… I need to stay focused, hungry, and happy,” he tweeted just before the competition.
ESPN had the exclusive broadcast rights for the competition this year but, unfortunately, the broadcast experienced technical difficulties during the event.

However, the ESPN feed kept freezing and then cut out out completely. Once the feed was back, the event was over.

Fireworks may be a 4th of July tradition, but so is watching a bunch of people stuffing their faces with hot dogs in an effort to win the coveted Mustard Belt in the Nathan’s Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest. And this year, Joey “Jaws” Chestnut is attempting to break his own record — so here’s how you can see it.
Chestnut, 37, has won the Nathan’s contest a record 13 times in the last 14 years. In 2020, though, there were no crowds cheering him on in person due to Covid restrictions, Chestnut smashed a record 75 hot dogs in 10 minutes. Going into the competition this year, he’s the odds-on favorite by a long shot, going into the event at -3000.
And yes, he’s fully aware of the pressure he’s facing. “Many huge favorites have failed to deliver… I need to stay focused, hungry, and happy,” Chestnut tweeted prior to the competition.

The Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest on ESPN didn’t hit an all-time low in TV ratings this year, but the annual July 4 special was unable to crack one million total viewers.
Saturday’s socially distanced version of the Coney Island staple averaged 966,000 viewers, which is the lowest draw for an initial airing of the contest since 2005. Back then, the niche “sport” received 860,000 viewers.
At the time, the new-to-tv contest was in its cultural infancy, and was dominated by Japanese eater Takeru Kobayashi. It is now much more mainstream.

And the former Daily Show host vowed that he and his fellow advocates won’t let up the pressure until Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell keeps his promise to vote on the legislation before the Congress’ August 2 recess.
McConnell, who last month on Fox & Friends questioned why Stewart was all “bent out of shape” over the issue, released a statement today after the House passed the bill on a 402-12 vote: “The first responders who rushed into danger on September 11th, 2001 are the very definition of American heroes and patriots.
