    Wine Down Wednesday with Influencer Icon Pete Malleo

    Wine Down Wednesday with Influencer Icon Pete Malleo

    The Chrises unwind with social media legend Pete Malleo for a wacky Wine Down Wednesday. A month into his fermented grape journey, Pete is still in his fine wine educational infancy, but is an expert on forgetting how to pick up a bottle of white for his wife, Ashlee Malleo.

    Feeling lucky and a little tipsy, Pete grabs a lottery ticket and details what he will do with his $400 million winnings. The Greatest Showman plans on having a giant “I’m Quitting” parade that will include a Gio Prism float and live performances from Beyonce and Jay-Z.

    Pete, the consummate gentleman, is always looking to improve as a husband, family man, and overall nice guy. Ashlee, Pete’s better half, is no decoy as she joins the program as a special featured guest to shine some light on areas of Pete improvement. The long list includes: leaving more than just the sushi tails, not referring to her as his assistant, and maybe not double pantsing her in front of the family.

    Cinco de Chrises

    Cinco de Chrises

    The Chrises roll in with high hopes and a set of CDC guidelines to celebrate Cinco de Chrises.

    The updated CDC recommendations include:
    1) Tequila
    2) Solo Cups
    3) Ribs

    Thanks to the CEO of @hiatustequila (and pseudo “Chris”), Kristopher DeSoto, combined with the CEO of Ribs, Uncle Tito @loretto_lion, The Chrises start off properly hydrated and nourished.

    The extravagant expectation for cinco total Chrises comes crashing down like @ay_cjay’s Wi-Fi as The Chrises resort to headwear and sleeveless jacket changes to keep themselves afloat. In the midst of Luna The Rabbit’s ears working as well as her sight, The Chrises take a lesson from the bunny and hop along with rainbows in their hearts to see the show to completion.

    @ChristopherGardinier is apparently allergic to history, as he erupts for his first ever @QWTChrises on-air sneeze upon retelling the origin story of Cinco de Mayo and the influence of 1980’s beer manufacturers (h/t @pamwiz 🍻).

    In preparation for a hot and thirsty “Thigh Guy Summer”, The Chrises share their summer workout regimens and plans to pack turkey baster bidets for all their travel squatting duties.

    [EDITOR’S NOTE: Instagram removed the previously uploaded Live version of this episode due to a song copyright “violation”. Thank you Tequila Sunrise and all members of the Eagles!]

    Floating On with Preston Smith, Multifaceted Artist & Podcast Host

    Floating On with Preston Smith, Multifaceted Artist & Podcast Host

    The Chrises battle the evil villain known as Instagram Live after technical glitches overtake the program for the umpteenth time. Undeterred by the formidable forces of the Internet, The Chrises are finally able to man the ship and swim to shore with special guest Preston Smith @pmsartwork.

    Despite losing a Chris and possibly a cow in the process, Preston (PMS) details to @christophergardinier about his maturation as an artist, person, and creative. “The Living Artist” podcast host steps into the light, fends off a lizard queen’s advances, and eloquently answers important questions posed by co-host @ay_cjay about Thin Mints and underwear choices.

    Preston recounts what it was like painting commissioned portraits for President @BarackObama’s inauguration; all while still working a full-time restaurant job. PMS also answers viewer’s questions about the right time to jump ship and become a full-time artist.

    The pandy pandemic hasn’t stopped PMS from sharing his personal experiences in the art world via his podcast, @Clubhouse weekly “Sustainable Artist” club, and 500 abstract art pieces sold around the world.

    Lavender Fixin’ with Podcaster Sabreen Haziq

    Lavender Fixin’ with Podcaster Sabreen Haziq

    The Chrises are joined by the Kashmiri podcast queen and host of “The Lavender Fix”, Sabreen Haziq @breenhaziq. On a lifelong quest for a nickname, Sabreen reveals how she failed to go by Daisy as a child and now goes by Breen across the interwebs. Sabreen details her personal journey from Kashmir to Boston including picking up a fashion sense in London along the way.

    Not one to be camera shy, the Lavender Lover comes clean about her knowledge of lavender plant varieties and Indian-American cuisine. Plus she divulges her distaste for mostly all things seafood. “The Lavender Fix” host spills the sauce on her 11th ranked podcast in India’s education category and gives a few snippets on her new season’s upcoming episodes.

    Special Hometown Edition feat. a Surprise Guest Host

    The Chrises are joined by fan favorite, The Doctor of Love a.k.a. @MikeGardinier3, for a wild ride o’ fun. Needing to bring in a lefty reliever, Christopher Gardinier dips out of the broadcast early to allow his father to take the reins.

    Christopher Joseph savors looks from the thrift shop as The D.O.L. surmises that CJ looks strikingly similar to @jaredleto. Free advice is given out like Easter candy in-between Mike’s stunt double mocking him with @toystory’s Little Bo Peep.

Hilarious!

We love the Chrises soooo much! We have been tuning in for a while and are so excited when a new episode is uploaded! They are so funny and being that this year has been stressful and depressing, they bring light and happiness into the world which is refreshing. Would recommend this podcast to everyone!

Thanks for the DAILY cup of SMILES

I tune in to the Chrises for my daily giggles to lift my spirits. The banter between the two friends reminds me of a married couple cooped up way too long together. Between the two of them and their interesting guests, I always come away with a smile.
