In this episode, all the famous Chrises are up for re-Chriscideration. We discuss historically cool Chrises, revisit our own 2017 Chris America Pageant, name-drop the anti-Chrises, and pay a brief homage to the Chrises who didn’t quite make this year’s court. Finally, we narrowed down the field to six Chrises who could be crowned Chris of the Year.
