Christopher Cowles
Co-Host of Criticless Cast Unhinged
Chris Cowles, international man of mystery who has not lost his mojo. Favorite movie is Snatch and pretty much anything Guy Ritchie. Essentially a ghost because he has no internet presence (but maybe you’ve heard of buttaboi69). You can always rely on him to poke the bear or make a wise crack. Also, he’s really good at IT - have you turned it off and on again?
Christopher Cowles has hosted 116 Episodes.
