Looking to inspire? I got you. Maybe drop some knowledge? I got you. You want belly laughs? I’ve got a belly and I laugh so I got you. Besides you can’t spell speaker without the C H R I S. Oh wait. You can. Oops. But still book me.

A passion of mine & where I'm really able to let my creativity flow. Best way to understand the art form it is to listen. (Check out "The Catelogue" tab)

I know how to set-up a punchline...

Why's this relevant? Thanks for asking:

3. I can share the secret of being tall
(it's broccoli - think about it)
