"Venture a guest" for "venture a guess"

From the context this phrase seems to suggest entertaining someone elses opinion.

“I couldn’t venture a guest as to whether this fellow running the church is going to be good or bad.”

“Anyone want to venture a guest as to how many friend requests Rachel will get because of her quote?”

“Anyone else want to venture a guest?”

“Now that iron fist is defused as a prisoner, none can venture a guest on how the Parliament could help cobble up a government of the mutually inimical three religious groups.”

“I would hate to venture a guest but my only suggestion would be after your ground has thawed and theres no chances of frost.”
