For anyone who hasn't heard the term, a 'hot mic' moment is when someone is done speaking on a microphone, but them makes an offhanded comment to themselves or someone, intended to be private, that is picked up by the mic and heard by everyone

lol this isn't a matter of international politics but when i was in school for audio engineering we were in one of the classroom studios and me and one of the other students i was friends with were setting up a mic that the rest of the class in the control room had already cranked the gain up and i didn't know so i was talking mad shit about this other kid that had it out for me that I was getting increasingly tired of and I heard click "hey... uh.. the mics on" come out of the headphones nearby. Walking out of the booth was so awkward
